We had an amazing class with Sara for her thai food night! Everything was prepped as we did the HipCooks mini 2 hour class but it was great! We learned the seasonings and flavors and got to enjoy our food after. Highly recommnd for date night or just a solo adventure read more

What a great, fun experience. My grandson has bern really interested in cooking so I decided to try the 2 hour cavatelli class here at Hipcooks. Sarah was entertaining, warm, welcoming, encouraging and a great instructor. Made the class so much fun and my grandson couldn't not stop talking about how much he learned in a 2 hour class. The school itself is small but neat, clean and vibrant. Everyone participated in making the meal and sitting down together to enjoy it. I generally do not enjoy classes that are structured like this, but in this case, everyone was able to participate in all aspects and all portions of each dish if they wanted. My previous experience has been that each team makes one part of the meal and it gets assembled at the end prior to eating. I always felt I was not getting a full experience that way. This was structured differently and it absolutely made the experience so much more enjoyable. I would not hesitate to recommend them or to take another class there. Thank you again Sarah for making this such a great experience. read more

Just took a cooking class with Sarah with my dad and it ended up being way more fun than I expected. I thought it would be cool, but it turned into one of those random memories you're actually glad you made. Sarah is super informative and explains everything in a way that actually makes sense. She's also genuinely funny, which made the whole class feel relaxed instead of awkward or stiff. The energy was great the whole time. She kept everyone involved, made it easy to ask questions, and somehow kept things fun even when we were getting hungry and lowkey impatient for the food. My dad and I were laughing most of the time, and it didn't feel forced or corny at all. The food turned out amazing, which I honestly didn't expect because... well... it was us cooking. But Sarah gives little tips and tricks that actually work, so everything came out way better than expected. We left full, happy, and feeling like we actually learned something instead of just following instructions blindly. Super fun experience to do with my dad, and I'd 100% recommend Sarah's class if you want to learn, laugh, and eat really good food at the same time. read more

We had a team-building dinner for work at Hipcooks OC and had a great time. Sara and her team presented the "fan favorites" menu for us, and walked us through each of the dishes (string beans + potato salad, polenta, chicken thighs over sweated tomatoes and onions, and a Devil's food cake). We each had the opportunity to participate, but also had plenty of time to hang out and spend time with each other. We had several participants with food allergies and the team made sure to accommodate their needs. Sara taught us about the techniques she was using and also provided the recipes so we can try on our own. We all had a great time in a relaxed, welcoming and warm atmosphere, and sharing a meal family-style. Thank you! read more

Hipcooks - Empanadas + prosciutto pears - Cooking Schools Near Me - Santa Ana, California

I found this place through instagram and decided to reserve a spot for the Eye of the Thai-ger cooking class. There was a total of 14 people including myself. Each student got a chance to participate in cooking parts of all the dishes. I really like that when we ate the dishes it was on a communal table, which made it feel a lot more personal. The instructor provided many cooking tips and educational information about the dishes during the class. I would definitely come back again. The food we cooked was delicious! read more

My mom got me this class for my birthday, and we did it together which was so fun and easy! The class was the "don't cry for me Argentina" which of course was Argentinean food. We made chimichuri for the steaks that we cooked, ricotta stuffed zucchini bites, empanadas, and for dessert dulce de leche mousse. For drinks we made a white sangria and a glass of red wine was served with dinner! Everything was so delicious and easy to make! Smaller classes about 15 ppl and they walk us through everything! Definitely need to be a little assertive if you want to do something within the class as there are a few ppl per cutting board. I was soooo full by the end as we tried things as we went along cooking it! 100% recommend and would LOVE to come back! read more

Kyrsten was an incredible instructor for the risotto class!! I got this class as an early christmas gift for my dad. We came all the way from San Diego and had a great time. We learned a lot of skills- even things my dad had no idea about! We made incredible food, the other people with us in the class were very kind and friendly. There were 8 of us total, but Kyrsten did a great job dividing her time and making sure to answer all of our questions. Personally, I'm a very picky eater but I decided to be open minded and try everything, and I was surprised at how many things I liked! I would definitely take another Hipcooks class again:) read more

What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon! Please take the time out of your day to take a class! I can't wait to come back!

Had a really nice night out here making healthy food with zing. We were able to make tuna with a mango salsa, roasted pepper soup with pesto and sorbet. I am a dummy when it comes to knife skills and the instructor was so helpful. She kept trying and I kept messing up. A normal person would give up and she was so determined to improve my bad habits. I love to cook and appreciate making a healthy meal especially at the start of year. Everything was delicious! The instructor gave us so many good tips and i learned a lot. It was nice to get to cook with a group and get to know other people in class. Check this place out they have so many types of classes not just healthy ones. The instructor really know their stuff!! read more
