My family decided to have a girls night here and attend a cooking demonstration. The new location is beautiful with a great parking lot. The demonstration was alright. The chefs were friendly but not very theatrical or completely organized. Both were knowledgeable about food and very receptive to questions. The food was all good as well. It was a 6:30-9 class and we didn't begin eating until 8. I was starving and was hoping they would serve the chips and queso or margarita a little earlier but I understand that cooking everything fresh in front of us is not fast. If you come to a class, expect to not eat until the very end of the class. I think this would be a really fun date night and I would consider coming back. The value was decent for an experience plus dinner. You also get 10% off in the store after the class.

Took a cooking class here with my mom for my birthday. We did a pasta class and it was mostly good! On the pro side, the food was delicious and we got to take home the recipes. Plus the class came with a glass of wine! On the downside it did take a while and while I understand making 3 dishes can take a bit I wish the instructor had provided more direction in a more linear manner. There was a lot of confusion in who was doing what when and also not a lot of explaining for how to do what or even when. Shout out to the assistant who helped clean up our messes and provide direction and insights in the class.

I have taken three classes with my mom this year so far at Kitchen Conservatory and we have loved all three. The hands on classes have been a perfect way to learn a new skill and learn from great chefs! Tried: Doughnut class with Rachael from Nathaniel Reid Bakery, Kolache class with Chef Sheri, and Gnocchi class with Chef Jeff Loved: we enjoyed all three but really appreciated Sheri's teaching style - we learned so many tips and tricks for every day in the kitchen in addition to kolache skills. Our favorite food we've had has been in our gnocchi class - such great dishes our class created. We've loved the selection of classes they offer as well . Liked: you get a 10% discount in the store after classes and there are some really great items in the store that are also reasonably priced. Great after a class to browse. Disliked: the website is older and they could use a better system for their punchcard/recipes like having a nice online account

Omgggggggg! This experience was amazing! My friend invited me with her to take an Indian cuisine cooking class and I honestly enjoyed everything about the process. According to her, the booking process was easy to understand and maneuver. I'm not sure how much it costs, but the prices were on the website based on which class you take. When the day of the class came, parking was easy to find and there were enough spots for us, especially because we made it roughly 2 minutes late. We walked in and received a folder full of information on what we were cooking for the day and the recipes for them. We were directed to the class where there were roughly 20-25 people. We were instructed on how to make the different components of the meal, and were split in pairs of your choice. It was nice to talk to the different attendees and even the instructor, along with her mother. Susie, who worked for Kitchen Conservatory, kept all of the dishes cleaned and helped us find anything we needed. It was a really neat experience. We made so much food and had so much left over. We weren't allowed to take any to go, but you could definitely eat until your tummy was full. I would say, just to make sure people were able to get a full experience of every component, I feel as though the class would work better if it was 10-12 students instead. It became a bit crowded and many people were kind of standing off to the side waiting for something to do. However, I enjoyed my experience and would definitely come back!

I feel like the new location deserves a new review. The new location is BEAUTIFUL. I do think a lot of the classes remain the same. For example, the paella class that we took, I believe they have been doing that for a long time. If you are even considering taking a cooking class at all, jump on their website or get on their mailing list and they will definitely keep you updated on the new classes. They have everything from date night classes to demonstration classes where you just get to sit and watch, then eat! Everyone that attends is always super nice and we make new friends every time we go. If I could plan to do this every month, I would in a heartbeat. In this class we did learn how to make paella and we took the class because we thought it would be hardyo make! The chef made it out to be super easy! And there is a lot that one can prep the day before if you wanted/needed to. We are headed to Spain soon and I will be collecting ideas so we can make it at home. Now that I'm hungry I'm going to go check on vegetarian classes. They really have everything!

We loved our dinner with Chef Jeff! We had a girls night and appreciated the relaxing environment of kitchen conservatory, we were able to watch Jeff make a delicious meal and still had time to chat with each other. I appreciated having the food dispersed and not everything at once. We had that at a previous class and were ravenous. The only change I would make is the volume of food, of the demonstrations I've done this is the least food I've had, not anything drastic but get like it was missing an item like a salad or a side.

Since our original visit, we've done 2 more themed classes- one for Schitt's Creek and another for Ted Lasso. It was the same instructor for both, and she was lovely. The classes were so fun, and I loved the group cooking atmosphere. They've moved to their new location, which is a huge step up. Highly recommend this place, especially if you're into giving "experiences" for gifts instead of stuff that no one will ever use.

What a fun night. Three of us decided that we'd like to do a pasta making class. This was our first time at the kitchen Conservatory. We arrived about 15 minutes early to be able to look around the store a little bit and get ourselves situated in the class. Chef Angela was amazing. There were roughly 16 people in our class and she had all of us making pasta, chopping, cooking, and moving seamlessly. We made our pasta ball into four different types of pasta and created four different pasta sauces. It was a lot of fun. At the end, they served us water, tea, and a glass of wine as we got to sit down together and enjoy our meal that we created. This is definitely an entertaining evening that was very hands-on. I received this as a birthday gift from my daughter. Another family had said that it was a Christmas gift for their mother. This is a wonderful gift idea for someone that you don't know what to purchase for them. A great date idea as well. We will definitely be back. They also had a punchcard that they gave us. I believe for every 12 classes you get one free. I am thinking that our class was $65 but for the $65 we learned how to create four amazing meals, had a glass of wine, a wonderful meal and met some new friends so it was definitely a good deal.

We gifted our parents a class here for Christmas so we could experience something together as a family. They offer both hands-on interactive and demo class options. We chose the Tuscany for Two class where we made made a shrimp and scallop appetizer, rib-eye steak, baked polenta, mixed roasted veggies and blackberry gelato with Pizzelle cookies. Everyone gets printed recipes before class along with a an apron. Chef T did an amazing job walking us through each dish and helped everyone tackle different aspects of the dinner such as chopping veggies, stirring the polenta, and cooking the protein. Chef T also gave us lots of great kitchen tips like using a silicon cannoli tube to remove the outside of garlic cloves. I highly recommend this class!

Attended a class as a team building event and this was my first time at the Kitchen Conservatory. There is a shop with SO many items to browse through, I mean you can find any kitchen gadget here as well as cookware, bakeware and even grilling supplies! Our class was a Tuscan style menu and everyone participated in the creation of our meal. Shrimp and scallop scampi, pan seared ribeye, roasted veggies, baked polenta and a blackberry gelato! Chef Jeff was amazing as he instructed our group to make each element of our meal. He was information and funny too! This was a great event that I was happy to attend and was able to learn some new kitchen skills. Hope to attend another class as they have many offerings. The classes seem to be appropriately priced and it's a great experience.

My colleague and I attended a Whack the Knife class at Kitchen Conservatory and had a wonderful time! Our instructor Ann was extremely knowledgeable and taught us all about different types of knives, how to use kitchen knives safely, and how to sharpen them properly. Each participant could bring in up to 3 knives to be sharpened for free by a lovely man named Tom. He was also very engaging and told us all about the knife sharpening process and how to maintain sharp knives! During our class, we prepared roast chicken panzanella salad. Throughout the course of the food preparation process, we learned what makes a good knife, the essential kitchen knives and their names/uses, knife maintenance do's & don'ts, techniques for boning & carving chicken, and techniques for efficiently and safely chopping veggies. We each got to come to the front of the class and help with a different task to help prepare our food. At the end of the class, we shared our completed chicken panzanella and were treated to a delicious devil's food cake made by Ann. The class was definitely worth the $50 class registration fee!! I learned so many helpful knife skills, walked away with freshly sharpened knives, and enjoyed a delicious lunch. I highly recommend taking a class at Kitchen Conservatory!

We took a wonderful date night pasta class with Chef Angela. She was a wonderful host/instructor. The class was a lot of fun, we learned a lot and the food came out great. I've never had a bad experience with a class here. 10/10 recommend!

We were at a gala a few months ago and won a gift card to Kitchen Conservatory. My son went to a soup making class and loved it. For Christmas he booked a pizza making class for the two of us, which we went to last night. This event was at their new place which just opened in January! The building was beautiful and very clean. I got a good vibe when I walked in. Upon entering the classroom there was a table set for 14. After washing hands we could pour either ice tea or water then take a seat. In front of us were the menus of what we were making that we could then take home to make on our own, We made a buffalo chicken pizza, a think wheat crust spinach and mushroom pizza a stuffed crust cheese pizza, a taco pizza (with a goldfish cheese crust yum) and a dessert pizza with nutella, strawberries, and almonds. Each pizza was excellent! We also put together a salad which we ate while our pizza's cooked and we were given a choice of red or white wine! That all being said, it was excellent, so I would give it a 4.5. What I did not love is that we all were making parts of different pizzas, so my son and I did a lot of dicing of vegetables, so we did not really feel we were making the pizzas. My other negative was in terms of the safety/health measures. Most all the women wore their hair up, minus one, as it was not ever mentioned. We were told to wash our hands when we entered and after we ate our salads. I mean one hopes its common sense every time you touch your face, or your phones, (which we all left on the main table) you would clean your hands. Our chef never said anything about that, or reminding everyone to please be considerate when making food! I washed my hands so much they are super dry today, but I can say for sure I dont think everyone was washing their hands as much as they should have! A PSA at the beginning and middle of the class would have been appreciated. So honestly I wouild give it a 3.5 but the food and the experience were great so I'm happy with a solid 4.
