This store is like Nordstrom's for me...I love it, I dream about it, and I leave with all my money gone, but so happy. They have a pretty small store, but it is jam packed with goodness! I got a gift certificate for Christmas, and found an amazing Truffle Oil with truffle pieces (big ones!) resting in the bottom! Best food purchase of my recent years! read more

Beautiful store. Helpful staff. Having only been in the Seattle shop until now, it's a very different experience. Clean and fully stocked. Fun to see they also offer cooking classes. read more

Wow. Met with the most unwelcoming customer service today. Never had a bad experience in here until now. I felt like such a inconvenience as I tried to make an exchange and purchase more items. Heavens I ask where something is or ask to wait to finish my transaction as I saw something else I wanted to grab. The woman who helped me didn't have a name tag so I unfortunately can't identify her other by describing her by looks. Older woman with very long natural colored hair and today a grey zip up fleece. read more

Husband and I took a cooking class here with Chef Maria. It was so much fun. She was so kind and patient. She taught us how to make brick chicken, lemon risotto and mint-lemon sorbet. Everything was delicious and we had the best date-night. Cannot wait to make these recipes at home and on our own. We definitely recommend taking classes here and loved our instructor, Chef Maria! read more

The staff really go the extra mile to help you find what you need and answer your questions! Lovely, clean storefront with welcoming and positive vibe. I could get lost in there for hours. Great experience, will definitely be back! read more

Love shopping here! They always have what I love, what I need, and what I don't need but love and end up buying anyways. They have a good selection of Le Creuset that I really love. read more

My husband and I had the pleasure of taking a cooking class with chef Julie Hoskins. She was very knowledgeable, and was able to instruct in a way that was full of information but was also super approachable and friendly. The food we learned to cook - pan seared steak, butternut squash gnocchi and lemon panna cotta - was incredible and we will definitely be making these recipes again. We will absolutely recommend chef Julie to our friends. read more

Sur La Table - Butternut squash gnocchi in a brown butter sage sauce - Kitchen Supplies Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

We joined a group of friends for a surprise 40th birthday party. This was an unexpected place to go for a birthday. I only thought that sur la table sold products. This was actually a really fun place to go. They showed us how how to cook and use all the tools. We made pizza dough, grilled peaches, sliced the toppings, and then either grilled or put the pizza in the oven. The staff was friendly and guided us through the process. I think I at times our group was too loud and it was over whelming for the chef, but overall he did a great job explaining and showing us all the things we needed to do. I actually found this to be a really fun way to do a night out, or party. I would absolutely go there again for another event like this. This place has so many great products as well, overpriced but quality nonetheless. read more

Great time doing one of their cooking classes. Chefs are helpful and guide you for a complete cooking experience. Great for groups! We did a team building event here and had a great time! read more

My friends and I went to a cooking class this weekend to celebrate a bday. We were super excited, especially myself because I wanted this to become a regular thing. The reviews were great. Our class was called "From Scratch-pasta". So to start, we started 20 mins late. Which didn't bother me at all. Things happen. But... the first thing the chef told us was "don't worry we will make up the time". Which immediately set off alarm bells. I paid for a full class and wanted a full class. But they decided to make up the time by making the pasta dough themselves in a mixer with no explanation of amounts used. Umm this class was literally called "From Scratch" we wanted to know how to make pasta from scratch!!! That was a huge disappointment for obviously many in the class. Secondly, you pay 90$. I figured I would have a partner to cook with so I had my bestie with me. But nope. You have 3 partners!!!! So 4 people sharing ingredients to make the dish. So a lot of the time 3 of you are watching someone else cook. Literally I barely did a thing. I chopped a carrot and we took turns feeding dough into the machine. That's all I did as 4 people aren't needed to cook 1 dish. We were suppose to make 3 things. Two pastas with 2 different sauces and a salad. We made 1 sauce, a Ravioli and the pasta. We were suppose to make the sauce for the ravioli but the chef ended up doing it with zero discussion about it even though at first we were told we would do it. We never saw anything for the salad, but it was tasty. The bolognese sauce was okay. For Italian sauce there was zero spices used besides salt and pepper which was surprising. The ravioli was done exactly like the chef told us too but there was no warning to be careful about using to much inside. Almost the entire class had messed up overfilled raviolis (which we did ours just like the teacher). Never mind the full egg yoke put inside the ravioli, which is not something most of us found tasty. Eek. So for the price, I didn't not feel it was worth it at all. They need to have enough ingredients for pairs. Not 4 people!!! I didn't learn how to make pasta from scratch and I would have like to know how to make the salad dressing and the ravioli sauce, which was what was promised. I feel like this was a money grab in their part. I will say the chef was very very nice. I'm horrible on names so I can't remember. But she did seem to need the assistance of her sous chef a LOT. Her sous chef seemed much more knowledgeable than her. Part of me wants to know if this was just a fluke. I might try again. Please note, I leave lots of good reviews, not normally a complainer. I recommend they teach the full class always. I don't shorten my clients experience because I run late with another then charge the full price. Not good customer service. read more

Move into the neighborhood and decided to try a cooking class one night, now I'm hooked. The instructorwas extremely friendly and passionate, which made the class a lot of fun. Throughout the 2 hour class we cooked a four course meal from scratch. The food not only tasted incredible and was visually impressive, but simple enough to take home a prepare within an hr or so (assuming you already have the ingredients). Can't recommend this place enough. read more

Kid that answers telephone didn't know his product and gave incorrect information. I had to provide correct information

I live in So Cal and my GF lives in Sonoma County. I planned a special Weekend Valentines where I would fly up and we would attend the 1PM Night in Paris. 4 days before the event I received an e-mail stating that I would be refunded. When I called the store they said that they do this when an instructor can't teach or the class is canceled I never received a call letting me know or give me another option. Was proactive and tried to do the evening class but it was already booked. Called customer service and they said they would have a supervisor call me--never received call or e-mail. So, spent the money on a flight and hotel only to not have a class. Will never refer Sur la Table to anyone for classes or purchases. read more

We've been long time customers and I've posted my purchases & work orders the last few years to show that we've been having our knifes sharpen before Thanksgiving. This year was no different but when we picked up the knives one was not ours - what they were giving us was a shorter utility knife. We told them that the knife might have been switched with another order. They said it could not have been a mistake because she knows her employees. We told her that we know our knives and that one is not ours. We refuse to take it since somebody else is missing that knife. We left and so right now we're missing one knife. I intend to write to the company's head office & then file a claim with Small Claims court. I also intend to contact the local TV stations in the Bay Area if they're interested in investigating this problem. They just lost a good customer & I'm going to tell my friends to beware of dealing with this store read more

No customer service anymore!! What happened to the workers? The old man overcharged us but changed it when we pointed out his mistake. I asked for gift wrap ( which costs $5), and he just wrapped it in shipping paper. I said I wanted gift wrap. He asked the manager and she said no gift wrap everyone is too busy. A young man just stood there behind the counter, the old man said you don't want me to do it, the manager asked a young girl who said she didn't know how to wrap gifts. The only person who was actually doing something ,(another young lady,wringing up a customer) eagerly said "I'll do it!" She did a wonderful job while the old man, young man, young lady and manager just stood there. Someone from the company needs to go in and train the staff!! read more

We recently took the Parisian cooking class and it was delightful. The food was excellent, the menu was manageable yet impressive. I already have plans to host a dinner party with the Coq au vin recipe. Heidi was fantastic and very helpful. I will definitely be coming back in the future for more classes. read more

Parking is very difficult at this location. Go early for convenient parking. I was really put off by one of their cooking classes. Two groups were formed, not enough food and I was looked down upon by a family that I had to join. It was a very uncomfortable situation so, I left and asked for my money back. I so looked forward to a day of cooking and after a fun-time at a croissant making class, I decided to stay for another. Unfortunately, the system did not keep up with local requests. It was a shame, but I lost faith and will not go back. I was also appalled at the used apron furnished to me. It was odorous and stained. It was the only one left. The only way one can complain is with our purchasing dollars. That day I spent over $500. with a mix master, accessories and other items. I took them all back after my bad experience. I will not return to their cooking demos or buy from this store in the future. read more

Took a class on December 26th w my son "Secrets of Sushi Making". Was NOT impressed with our teacher at all nor the accommodations! The teacher pre cooked sushi rice and when starting the class told us what she cooked was "not to standard" so she wouldnt be using. One pot was useable (apparently 2 other pots were not up to standard as well) so our entire class of 16 only had one pot to start with. She used our portion (4 students) of rice to demonstrate with so when it became our turn to make a roll there wasnt enough rice to make a roll between us 4! She was scattered, not organized whatsoever and all over the place trying to cover her inexperience. I would swear this was her first sushi class based on her performance, her explanation of sushi, etc... she didnt even roll a nice sushi roll! I could tell she had no experience with rolling sushi and she was winging it, on OUR DIME! My 14 yr old son even commented how crappy she showed us to roll, it fell apart right away. Our knives were dull so they didnt cut the rolls nicely and they smashed down and made the roll fall apart. Then there was the "tempura shrimp" making where she mixed flour with club soda but NO TEMPURA!!! Just threw it in the oil to fry and never mentioned the fact that it wasnt TEMPURA. It was breaded shrimp with batter only, no tempura at all. Was I the only one to catch this??? Ohhhhh, and then she tells is theres a complimentary water, tea, coffee table located at the back of the classroom where the water pitcher was empty. There was NO tea, and the coffee maker nobody knew how to work with NO condiments for the coffee! I asked for the water pitcher to be filled as I was so thirsty, I guess that slipped thru the cracks because she never made that happen. Also, working in the restaurant industry, their lack of sanitation is concerning!!! Washing hands and gloves arent apparently important to them! I had to pay $79 to accompany my son for a $20 class at best! So $158 later and we got a recipe packet to take home with NO sushi rolling skills, 3 pots of unusable rice (she said it was easy to make but only the Insta Pot rice came out edible), no tempura, and a cluster f*** of direction! Save your money and YouTube the Secrets of Sushi! A positive was we laughed alot due to the joke of a class, got to eat some spicy tuna, and learned how even a "professional" chef can screw up all the rice for the class! read more

I love this place. And can't get here enough. I'm basically just popping on to say, well, I was inspired today that I had a book suggestion for everyone to buy. I mean, I lend it out and rarely get it back (I have to buy another original for someone to get my copy back) and I'm up to buy another and wondered, "Does Sur La Table have it?" No. I threw up my hands in despair that I won't be able to get this staple of a book from a favoritely frequented place but no loss. How simple was it to suggest it to the corporate book buyer in Seattle, WA? Simple. Just called the number I found in Google. Spoke with Kate who gave me her email. Sent her my book suggestion. And waaaahhhhh llllllaaaaaah. She said she'd consider it. I love a corporation that is not convoluted. Yup, still a favorite turn to. Oh and I found an item on the website (Black bodum 16 oz coffee press) that was 18 bucks. When I called the store, they admitted they were busy, but um is the 29.98 dollar one it. Um, no. Why is it so much more expensive? Oh it comes with an extra lid. Really? Double the price for an extra "free" lid. Buyer beware. They said they have what I was looking for and they'll get back to me. I'm not knocking them, as they are busy. And they have ALWAYS called me back so undoubtedly they will. But come on, be aware that with corporations things DO get convoluted so price comparison shop before you commit. They will find it for you for cheaper. Just call ahead. Oh yeah, and Mary is still one of the grandest things about Sur La Table in our area. I wish their corporate side knows that. Undoubtedly they do.

The employees in this store are incredibly rude, pushy, and annoying. I went in for one pan and an employee would insist "you need this spatula for that pan." After saying I do not want the spatula another employee tried to sell me a sponge for cleaning the pan. I literally wanted one pan, I don't need a sponge or spatula. Nobody was being helpful with helping me find the fight kind of pan for what I wanted to cook, they directed me to the most expensive and tried to sell every little unnecessary accessory. If you need cookware, go to Williams Sonoma and they'll get you what you actually need. read more

After today's experience I can say without conviction that I really hate this place!!! I was trying to return a few items that we received for our wedding, unopened with a receipt. And they flat out said no. Because "it was out of the 60 day return time. And they don't even carry those items at this time." According to the clerk... Such b.s. Our wedding guests spent thousands at this P.O.S. store for our wedding registry! Only for them to treat us like sh*t when we tried to return some things we did not like. The thing that pisses me off the most is the fact that the items were bought in June and our wedding wasn't even until August. So even if I would have tried to return them right away after receiving them, we would have missed the "60" day window to return!!! I filed a complaint online with their corporate office!!! This place is such a joke!!! read more

This is one of the nicer Kitchen stores we've been to. Plus, they have classes! Their prices are generally standard "retail" but they do have specials that can yield remarkable discounts. They also have a number of items that are hard to find at other stores. Such as Sous Vide machines and really high end appliances. Even when the store is crowded, we've found the staff to be knowledgeable, helpful, and polite. Keep in mind though that I believe they are on commission, so make sure that if a salesperson is a big help and you don't buy on the 1st visit, that you deal with them specifically when you return. Over the years we've bought quite a few items at this Sur La Table. Including our Shun Kitchen Knives. One of the really nice things about this store is they offer very nice cooking classes. Before we bought our knives, we took a knife skills class. Not only did we learn how to effortlessly mince, dice, brunoise, batonnet and julienne but we also got to try various manufacturer's knives. That way we could choose a knife best suited to the way we used them, hand size, etc. Plus we got a discount on the knives of our choice. read more

My husband and I stumbled upon this incredible store in hopes for a zester. We walked in and fell in love. I was completely in over my head with the idea of key lime pie, I honestly had no idea where to start. While we were looking at the zesters Jenelle approached us, and so so happy that she did!!! I let her know of our plans and she took it from there. We had our own personal shopper, no Google needed! She really knows her stuff!! Pointed us in the right direction to make the best key lime pie! She introduced us to a spring pan, which made the pie turn out unbelievable!! We also got a real nice kitchen knife (for special occasions, like cutting the key lime pie!) Jenelle is extremely knowledgeable and friendly! I can't wait to have another excuse to come back!! Not to mention they are very reasonably priced!! read more

I was very disappointed with the service at Sur La Table. In May of 2018, I got married. I had three stores on my registry, and one of those was Sur La Table. One of the items that I had on the registry at Sur La Table was a 6QT InstantPot. I did receive this gift, and for a variety of reasons, I was not able to open this gift until recently. When I opened the InstantPot this week, the handle on the top of the pot was broken. Obviously, because of this, it is unusable! When I went into the store to today, 11/15/18 @ 11:15 to exchange it, without much discussion the clerk said, "I can't help you because it's been longer than 60 days." Then she told me that perhaps someone was dumpster diving and got the gift from there! What in the world is this supposed to mean!?!? Why would she assume that or make a comment like that, without much of a conversation. I asked to speak to a Manager and she said that she was the manager and there was nothing that she could do! I understand that Sur La Table has policies, however, there was NO WILLINGNESS on her part to work with me. NONE! She gave me the number of the manufacturer and dismissed me! This is really not the kind of customer service that I was expecting from a store like Sur La Table! Such an unwillingness to work with me. I have been in hospitality for over 10 years, and I would have never treated a customer the way I was treated today. The refusal to work with me and accusing me of "Dumpster Diving" are enough to make me never want to go into a Sur La Table again. As a young newlywed setting up my kitchen, I was looking to Sur LaTable as my go to store, for products and classes. Not anymore! read more

Standard Sur La Table but this place also has cooking classes almost every day (I think this is a common occurrence at many of these Sur La Table's). You have everything that you need for cooking here, unless you're some specialty cook. Staff is super friendly and helpful, but all the places I've been to are. It's very convenient too in Montgomery Village. Nice to have something like this within minutes. read more

The store is great, just like most Sur La Table. I had the opportunity to enjoy a class taught by Chef Tony from Sea Thai. It was awesome!!! Mary Bergin (also mentioned in a lot of yelp reviews) was there too.. and she was super friendly and helpful too. I highly recommend the classes! read more

I wanted to surprise my boyfriend with something fun for our date night and was recommended the cooking classes at Sur La Table. I loved all the classes they offered but chose the "Date night- Passport to Italy". I ended up inviting another couple to join us as well. We had such an AMAZING time ! Our instructor, Jude, was so incredible and knowledgable. He made us feel so comfortable and made the class really fun. He explained everything really well and was able to answer so many questions for us. We were all so inspired so go home and continue cooking! We will definitely be coming back to many of the amazing classes they offer. I hope all the instructors are as amazing as Jude ! Thank you for making our date night so enjoyable ! You have some great people working there :D read more

My fiancé bought me a espresso machine for Christmas and I was SO excited but when i plugged it in it wasn't working correctly, we took it in to return or exchange it but I was pretty bummed! Luckily we were greeted by Bonnie and she offered to try and get it working, not only did she do that, but she took so much extra time to help me learn more about the machine and truly went above and beyond. It made my whole day and we went home and I made a cup of the most delicious coffee I had ever tasted! So grateful and definitely will be recommending all my friends to go to this location! Thank you again Bonnie! You are the best! read more

I love Sur La Table! I could spend hours wandering around the floor looking at every single piece they sell. The colors in this store are vibrant and it makes you want to go home and cook a feast or bake something special. With the help our your recent purchases from this store, you'll be able to. Competitive pricing and a great location. You can also sign up for some cooking glasses here or watch demonstration. Go inside and take a look! read more

Always love browsing Sur La Table...you leave there dreaming of being a better cook. This location has a great selection of cutlery, friendly staff, and a nice space for cooking classes and demonstrations. Be sure to browse the clearance section, lots of great deals to be found. read more

Sur La Table is heaven for a cook. I've been in several of the chain's locations, but my favorite is the Santa Rosa store. This is a good store for finding the name brands of cookware and also seeing the quality brands with the Sur La Table name on them. I recently bought a fabulous set of store brand bakeware. Every pan is heavy and resists sticking. Look for the 9 piece set of bakeware with the Sur La Table brand name and you won't be disappointed. I've always found the staff to be very helpful and knowledgeable. There is never a shortage of employees willing to walk you to what you're looking for and answer any questions you might have. read more

They have a great selection of kitchen items. If you are looking for a nice chef's knife or a cutting board / chopping block, this is your place. Prices are on the higher end, but they do stock some very nice appliances. read more

We really connected with Sur La Table this Holiday Season. It started with a tamale cooking class. In the couple of hours of the class we did learn from the teacher and other students but also gained an appreciation for the work that goes into making the tamales. Realizing our mixer would not do the job we had a look around. This prompted more thinking and research at home. To our delight Sur La Table had great sales during the Holiday Season. We bought a new mixer at a great price that had the added bonus of powering the rollers and cutters for my fresh pasta making. And yes, we did do price checking elsewhere. The staff was right there and very helpful and informative. There was no rush or pressure. It was a delight to shop there and have the well informed staff to help. read more

Whatever you could possibly want for your kitchen and cooking needs, you will find it here. Everything from "normal" kitchen gadgets to the unusual (but practical). They also have an array of high end products like Jura espresso makers. Can you get most of the items at other stores or online. Sure but you can't beat the convenience of seeing, feeling and holding a particular item. Service at this store has always been helpful and courteous, I am surprised to see some recent negatives on the service. Cooking classes are also offered here, my wife does the bulk of the cooking, I should sign up for a few of these :). read more

Nice store with generally quality items. My wife purchased two things there recently that we already have in the kitchen that work just fine; but the Sur La Table flour sifter and apple corer were a fractional upgrade and thus worth buying 《--- sarcastic comment. Cool place to buy kitchen gadgets and other implements at no discount. read more

Great time learning to cook at Sur La table.

My wife loves this store. When ever we pass by she has to go in. Mostly we just wander around and play with all the gizmos. She will occasionally end up buying something, but mostly not. Of all the places I'm forced to be stuck in, Sur La Table is one of my favorites.... read more

It's basically like going to Disneyland. I could spend all day in this store. The best of the best when it comes to kitchen tools and supplies. If cooking or entertaining is your thing then this should be your happy place! Sometimes I come here just to browse and get reinspired to cook, entertain, bake, or try something new. Staff is always very friendly and knowledgeable, going above and beyond with service. Prices are definitely on the higher end, but even as a college student I manage to pull off shopping here! They always have a really great sale section as well, don't forget to look, I have found some serious gems. At this point I'm more concerned with quality and longevity of a product versus buying cheap things that I have to replace over and over. Definitely my overall favorite go to kitchen spot! read more

I took the Date Night Cooking in Spain class last month and it was a big disappointment!! For starters, there were only two couples in class on a Saturday night. Where was everyone? Upon arrival we were offered either water or coffee. What? No wine? This is a cooking class after all, not a church function! Guess they can't serve wine unless you and 10 friends sign up! Decided to try and make the most of it anyway so we donned our aprons, made the introductions and began class. I soon noticed that all the ingredients for our meal had been pre-cut and prepared in advance. I was ready for a hands-on cooking class. Instead we basically took turns stirring, sweating, blending and browning.... things that any beginning cook would already know how to do! The Chef brought everything together and finished the cooking on the back oven. Oh, I guess the highlight of the class was getting to blow torch our individual creme brulee cups! The level of instruction and hands-on participation was geared towards grade school children. Any 10-year old could have prepared this meal. The quality of ingredients was also a disappointment. Linquicia was substituted for the chorizo that the recipe called for. Canned tomatoes and garbanzo beans were used instead of fresh. And I had just seen fresh garbanzo beans at the supermarket earlier that day. Roasted roma tomatoes would have been better than canned. Overall, the meal was under-seasoned and bland. All said and done, when it was time to eat, the Chef plated our meals and served them to us standing (we did not even get to sit and eat) and the 4 chicken thighs that were prepared for the 4 paying guests, were cut up so that we each received an appetizer size portion of food. I guess the crew of 3 got to finish the meal size portions after we left. We departed with a growl in our stomachs, a menu packet and 10% retail coupon that I have no intention of using. No wine with dinner and not even a Sur La Table apron to take home and together we paid $158! Bottom line, we were very disappointed in the level of instruction, quality of ingredients and portions size. I replicated the meal the following week at home with fresh, proper ingredients and more seasoning and it was fabulous! They should have let me instruct the class. read more

Ok, so we went to the cooking class that is offered. It was date night, the menu was Butternut Squash Risotto, Salmon with a hazelnut and thyme compound butter and a yummy chocolate desert. The class was amazing! The chef was great, he really made us feel like it was ok to not be a world class chef and still make a semi complicated dish. We both learned a bunch about everything from knife skills to how to patiently cook a perfect risotto. I can't wait to go back! read more
