★★★★★James SillsThe staff is absolutely amazing. They are warm, patient, encouraging, and so passionate about what they do. They made everyone feel confident and excited to learn. And the manager goes above and beyond in every sense of the word. Incredibly helpful, attentive, and genuinely invested in making sure every family has the best possible experience.
★★★★Rituparna BhattacharjeeWe had the 7th birthday party of our kid here! I cannot say enough good words about the owner and the staffs. The place is wonderful. You just sit back and relax and they will do the rest to make your day beautiful and enjoyable. All kids have enjoyed it thoroughly. Thanks and we highly recommend it.
★★★★★Christine CoffeyWe did a pasta party with Young Chefs Academy for my daughter’s 11th birthday and it went great! The biggest compliment from a kid “This is so fun!”. Highly recommend.
★★★★★Sara GreeneWe had a wonderful, stress free experience for our daughter’s seventh birthday party! The staff took care of everything and the instructors were amazing. We got a ton of compliments from other parents and, most importantly, our daughter said it was “the best party ever”!
★★★★★Brian SmithThe Kids had a great time. There was a birthday party for a 6 year old, and the chef’s taught the kids how to bake from scratch cupcakes. They got to decorate 2 cupcakes the way the chef’s wanted them to bake them, and 1 final cupcake the way the kids wanted them. My kids had a great time, and the cupcakes tasted great!
