Fun place. A friend was getting married this weekend and wanted a low-key bachelorette party, so we…read morewent here to do some sipping and some painting. These types of places are popular in Michigan too, where I live, but I had never done it before. I'm not an artist by any means, but I'd like to think my painting came out okay :) I'll just have to figure out a way to frame it or hang it, at some point. The woman in charge was very efficient too, and very friendly. Painting was $35 and she collected cards and cash from us at the end of the session, too. I'd come back here again sometime if in the area.

I recently came here for my birthday. I wasn't celebrating a milestone year, so this was a great…read moreplace to come with my close friends. I chose the painting in advance and I loved that I had so many options. It was a Sunday when I went so all the other businesses were closed. This made parking very easy for everyone. Because it was a private party, I brought my own food and drinks and we got to select our music. The artist was great and very helpful! It was super fun, and I can't wait to come back!

I attended a child's birthday celebration here. The party room is spacious. Ashton, the artist in…read morecharge of the party, was amazing. She was patient, gave easy directions, and let the kids have fun with painting. Each child had their own easel, and they had enough paint to mix colors and be creative. One is allowed to bring food and cake; I do not think that sternos are allowed. Painting with a twist is a great place for date night, hanging with your crew, and celebrating birthdays or any other event. I will be back!

I was able to book online with a deposit, pick a portrait for guest, setup earlier, and have a dedicated artist for the majority of the party. Plus the cleanup was done by the business. I would definitely recommend this business for your kids painting party needs.

LOVE Mix It Up! I brought my daughter here to attend her friend's birthday party and the girls had…read moresuch a blast. The studio set up outlined canvases ahead of time at each station and a staff member walked the girls through the basics of how to paint their mermaid pictures step by step, but definitely encouraged creativity with paint colors and techniques. It was pretty amazing to see how each girl painted their own unique mermaids! They also have tables and chairs set up to the side for parents and offer drinks. The birthday girls parents ordered pizza and we all ate that after the painting was over. It was a wonderful experience and I'd definitely consider this spot for a birthday party. I believe they also host wine and paint date nights, so I'd totally be down to dragging, *ahem, I mean bringing* my husband to one of those.

This was one of the highlights of my birthday trip to NOLA!…read more I'm almost at a loss for words regarding the wonderful time that I had! The owner Andrea is warm, hospitable, and was very accommodating. The atmosphere with all of the beautiful ladies felt like home-away-from-home and like I was amongst sisters. The art studio itself is nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. There was no clutter and there was space to move around and be social. The bar is well stocked and has nice options for purchase. I went on a Wednesday night and they have special food and drink on that night which was a plus. Due to our busy time in NOLA we hadn't had time to stop for a bite before the class started and our appetites were ready for the delicious food when we arrived. The artist who led us in creating our masterpieces was kind, patient, and encouraging. At a point during the process I was loosing steam and didn't think I would make it through to finish but even with it 1/2 finished she provided guidance and feedback that prompted me to continue. By the time I got my second wind, I was rocking and rolling! My painting actually turned out better than expected being that I'm an amateur artist. This experience will be one I will never forget nor will I forget the beautiful women who touched my heart and made my trip/birthday celebration extra special! I almost forgot to mention that, Andrea the owner gifted my friend and I two beautifully decorated cups of which we can use to sip our favorite drinks she also gifted us a bottle of wine on the house! The next time I'm in NOLA, I must stop by! Lastly, I hadn't considered that my canvas may not fit in my luggage when it was time to leave. Thankfully, I was allowed to carry it as a carryon item at the airport. All was well! Thanks Andrea for a memorable experience that was relaxing, positive, and exciting all at one once!

I didn't want to write this review. I wanted the business to make it right, so I reached out to…read morethem on two separate occasions with no response. I booked myself and six young people for an event that was advertised as family friendly. The class started 30 minutes late (tough for an impatient 7 year old) and then the ONLY instruction was, "I would start with the background." I wish this was an exaggeration. Then the instructor sat behind the desk for the duration of the class. When I've gone in the past, the instructor walked us through the painting while they painted on stage and gave tips, often circulating through the class to see if anyone needed help. Not this time. There were no printed instructions either. There was a monitor that displayed the painting but it went off halfway through the class, leaving us to use our phone screen or our imagination to finish. Despite starting thirty minutes late, it ended on time which cheated us out of our full booking. And then the "instructor" had the nerve to put a tip bucket atop a stool standing between us the door. Everyone has a bad day, but this experience was particularly egregious. Coupled with the company's refusal to acknowledge, apologize, or remedy the problem leaves me no other option than to recommend Google users NOT patronize Painting With a Twist Metairie.

Love the exposed brick walls and the 14 foot high ceilings that mimic the night sky. The grand fireplace wall is perfect for taking photos with family or friends. The space is so open and inviting with an antique bar and plenty of space for couches, tables and seating conducive to mingling. Catering is easily done with Sukho Thai downstairs. Get the spring rolls, fried tofu and fresh rolls with a peanut dipping sauce for appetizers. For main courses, try the pad Thai, drunken noodles or I Love You, My Sweetheart. Filled with eggplant, veggies and a choice of proteins, it is so good. Finish the buffet with sweet mango sticky rice. Great place for a special family event.
