I came in with zero experience in the bartending industry, and by the end of the course I feel fully confident walking into a bar and pursuing bartender jobs in San Diego. If you're looking for a bartending school in San Diego or trying to figure out how to become a bartender, this place is legit. The owner and lead instructor Nino is a true professional and a real subject matter expert when it comes to bartending and the hospitality industry. He teaches more than just recipes, he teaches how the bar industry actually works, how to move behind the bar, how to interact with customers, and what employers look for when hiring bartenders. Joe is also an excellent instructor. He's extremely technical and really helps you dial in the craft - he's a great example of a great bartending personality. One thing I'll say: show up to every class ready to learn. There is a lot of information packed into each session, and if you miss a class it can definitely set you back. The value you get for the price is honestly incredible. The course covers: * Bartending fundamentals * Drink recipes and mixology * Bar techniques and speed * Customer service behind the bar * Industry knowledge * Bartender job placement support I chose the school + staffing support package, and they actively help connect graduates with bartender jobs and opportunities in San Diego. If you're searching for: * Bartending classes in San Diego * Bartender training near me * How to become a bartender in San Diego * Best bartending school in San Diego This is absolutely worth it. Huge thanks to Nino and Joe for sharing their knowledge and helping new bartenders get started in the industry. I just finished the program this week and am now starting my job search.

They were patient and helpful through several iterations as we figured out what we each wanted, from the cocktail composition, garnishing, and even the contrast of colors against our cocktails. The final cocktails looked beautiful and were delicious and were very well received by guests. We got a lot of comments on both the presentation and the tasted of the drinks! Beyond the cocktails themselves, Snake Oil was really great to work with. They coordinated closely with Harvest Kitchen and really operated in lockstep with them as a cohesive team, which made the evening feel polished and well-run. Their professionalism, flexibility, and attention to detail made a strong impression on us. We would enthusiastically recommend Snake Oil Cocktails for any wedding or event where unique drinks and an elegant bar experience really matter!

It didn't. The drink was a kin to simple syrup and ice. She kept pushing the "double " Before I could say a word, I was met with a loud "no cash, no cash," which was ironic, considering I was about to leave a cash tip. It was never my intent pay cash, I was trying to be kind and not tip on the card but tip cash. When I hesitated after that interaction, I was then told I needed to tip. I did, largely because the look I received suggested either genuine distress or a level of intensity I wasn't interested in testing. If looks could kill, I wouldn't be writing this. It's a strange business model discourage generosity, then demand it. The whole exchange felt unnecessarily confrontational and left the evening on an awkward note. When I met back up with my date she had a similar experience, with the drinks being served with a side sass. We weren't going to let the attitude ruin our night.

Communication pre event was prompt, clear and thorough. I knew exactly what he was providing from service to supplies and he made excellent recommendations for our cocktail offering. Upon arrival he efficiently set up the bar and was ready to start right on time. Most importantly and why I give him 100 gold stars is that I grossly underestimated that number of people who would come to our customer party. No problem! Noah was over prepared with supplies and ingredients and was able to easily accommodate twice as many drinks as expected. He worked hard and non stop for 4 hours with complete professionalism. I have been in the events business for 20 years and can vouch that Noah is the real deal and there is no better partner for event beverage service. Thank you Noah!!
