• 5/5 from Julia Bohannan, attended Aug 2026: Our chef was fabulous - he kept the pace up - made everything simple, great explanations and amazingly our dumplings looked and tasted pretty good for a first effort!! Thank you.
• 5/5 from Rachel Ellen McCann, attended Jun 2026: Great Class! We had a great time learning how to make dumplings. Our Chef instructor was very charismatic and informative. And redeeming my gift card for the class was super simple through checkout. Thank you ClassBento for a wonderful evening
• 4/5 from Chloe Adam, attended May 2026: My partner and I did this for our anniversary, it definitely felt like a great way to celebrate! I do love having bar access, a drinky with dinner is appreciated. I found the instructions to be thorough where needed and loose where appropriate. I appreciated all the accommodations made for my dietary restrictions, I felt like the staff cared more for my needs that I did haha. I do feel like at times there was a bit of rushing, like we were onto the next step while people at our table were halfway through the current step, but also the class ended bang on time, so I suppose that’s just part of keeping time. Overall had a great time and will be coming again for another class :)
