Chef Eric was enthusiastic, charismatic, and incredibly supportive throughout the class. Chef stepped in exactly when needed and shared quick, helpful tips that made preparing the dish so much easier. Both dishes were absolutely delicious — but the Roasted Leek and Gruyère Croissant was truly top tier! I’m already looking forward to booking another class in the near future.

He was very entertaining. We cooked a salad pizza and meatballs. I wish we could’ve made our own dough and the sorbet but I’m sure he had to do that for time purposes other than that it was a great class.

During our cooking class, my girlfriend Nadia and I cooked chicken saltimboca, salad, polenta, crostini, and tiramisu. All of the food was delicious, and I really enjoyed how involved we were able to be in the cooking process. I learned a lot of fun and helpful tricks like different ways to cut produce and how to pan-sear food properly. Chef Eric was walking around the kitchen, but it was a resident chef, Mimi, that lead the group for the majority of the class. The only thing is I wish that we had some appetizer or snack to eat before the end of the class because it was such a long process to make all of the food, but I understand that would be difficult with cleanliness. Thanks for a great night!

This class was outstanding!! Heather made the class very hands-on; she showed me a few new cooking tricks, which I greatly appreciated; the 3 items were delicious, which I will make again; and she made the class lots of fun. But most of all I feel much more comfortable in making the perfect pie crust! I will definitely take more classes. Thank you.

My husband and I had an enjoyable time. The food turned out excellent. Chef Joy and the others in the class were delightful to be around. There was a lot of standing. I wish we had been able to at least sit down to eat the delicious food. Overall great experience.

Chef Tanya and Jake, the cooking instructors, were terrific! They not only shared valuable tips for cooking but also for prepping and cleaning the station. I was thrilled with the class and can't wait to sign up for another one. If you're interested, book your spot on a Saturday or Sunday.
Delia

What a great class. From the beginning with regard to explaining the different variations that we were going to make. Guiding us in the preparing of the ingredients and working with us in the cooking of the ingredients and how it all comes together . The end result the best getting to eat what we made. Delicious. Ready to register for my next class. Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Our family of 3 (including a teen son) really enjoyed this class. The recipes were easy to figure out and make, and it's nice to have the book to refer to the 3 things we made, as well as all of the other content. Chef Kelley was very helpful, friendly, and encouraging with our son!

Best was the delicious meal and the kitchen environment. The teaching was uninspiring and very impersonal. I couldn't remember all the cutting techniques when they were presented in one swoop. I had trouble putting the naan dough into the small slit in the hot oven. Why not pull the tray out all the way.
Rich S.
10/11/2025
instructor (not Eric) was great, except she talked way too fast. Biggest complaint is that the dishes were all far too salty. This wasn’t because of salt we added, but because of the premixed items provided to us. It’s especially concerning since we brought my 87 year old father, who has a serious heart condition. I am almost positive that I mentioned his special dietary requirement when making the reservation.

We didn't end up having Chef Eric, which was disappointing because we booked this class specifically after reading his reviews. Instead, the chef we got seemed untrained/unfamiliar with teaching a cooking class. When we arrived, he was still reading the recipe, and he seemed at a loss multiple times throughout the class.
His attitude was odd; he was very vulgar and didn't seem to like answering questions, which is part of what made it seem like he hadn't had much experience teaching. He also spent extra time with certain people and offered no help or conversation to others.
The worst of it came towards the end, the class was running behind, and he got the pans way too hot to cook the Bok Choy. When he went to deglaze the pan that I was working next to, he added too much water to the already way too hot pan and gave it a hard shake, causing the oil and water to splash out of the pan and onto my face and torso. Fortunately, the burns weren't too bad and have only left some minor red marks on my face one day later, but it did get oil stains on the shirt I was wearing that I couldn't get out.
I was looking forward to this class, but was disappointed.

We didn’t have Eric but some woman. Instructions weren’t that thought out and for groups of four, more equipment should have been available. You should offer classes for groups of 2. Not enough hands on time with four people and you can’t experience cooking the meal.
