Recent reviews of Tuscan Italian Cooking Class

  • 5/5 from Devon Bottomley, attended Oct 2026: Lizzy, Abigail and Laine were PHENOMENAL. So knowledgeable and fun, we had a great time. The menu was excellent, food was delicious! The only note I have is that we actually thought we'd be cooking the steak, but we just seasoned it - the team then cooked it.
  • 5/5 from Kate Tighe, attended May 2026: That class was amazing! Super interesting and fun instructor - lots of helpful tips and tricks, let us help a little with the easy stuff and he did the hard work. Great setup - very cozy - and the food was delicious! Perfect amount of time @ 3 hours. Would definitely go again.
  • 5/5 from James Cunningham, attended Apr 2026: We brought several clients to this class, and everyone had a great time and wonderful meal. Lisa was great, and we will definitly look to do this class again with other client teams. Thansk!
