Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 04/08/2020
A tiresome advertisement for Disney's theme parks, resorts and cruise ships. Go to Full Review Robyn Bahr The Hollywood Reporter 03/31/2020
While the show is a little loud and bright at times, relying on trepidatious synth-heavy background music that could have easily been replaced with a plinky Disneyfied score, it's still a welcome reprieve from weightier programming. Go to Full Review Emily Ashby Common Sense Media 04/24/2020

derek l 04/06/2022 Even though the format does get quite repetitive, Be Our Chef is still something that is fun and enjoyable for families and kids. See more 06/11/2020 A fun show to watch with your kids. I love cooking competition shows and Disney, so this worked well for our family. See more 04/13/2020 As a fan of just about every cooking show out there, i just couldn't with this. The wife and I really had to force ourselves to even get through it. They grab things off the shelves without any explanation, they toss in ingredients and don't comment on them, it makes the show really hard to follow along with. Sure you can follow the family and the stories and the kids, which is all great, but at it's heart it's a cooking show and I want to follow the cook as much as, or even more than, everything else. Angela Kinsey is passable, but she jumps from being believable to feeling stiff and a bit fake. Some lines also feel very delivered, and she somehow manages to make even something as simple as a smile feel disingenuous. I honestly think there is a show hidden in here. With the power of the mouse, the licensed characters and the magic of Disney this show could really be something, but sadly, I think it's all lost in the production and the editing. There's a reason other shows cut on more talking head footage for explanation reasons and while there is some, it just doesn't paint a full enough picture to feel like a complete show.
