Maya Alexandra Goldgisser




I bought my mom this class as a gift and we thoroughly enjoyed it! First, bios apothecary was super accommodating because I had some issues with scheduling. Second, at the actual class Jimmy, our teacher was amazing. He was very experienced and you could tell that he really knew and understood his stuff. We got to smell a bunch of different fragrances and then narrow down which ones paired well with  + more

Elena was an amazing instructor very kind and patient. I purchased this class as an anniversary gift to my girlfriend and I. Everything was provided from the smock to the painting utensils. You learn how to sketch from a reference photo, how to mix paint to make colors lighter or darker, and of course how to paint using oil based paint. Elena was a hands on instructor not shying away from helping you  + more

I got tickets to this class as a 9th anniversary gift (pottery) for my partner. Patrick was a great teacher and we had so much fun trying something new. The small class size and encouraging atmosphere were perfect for us beginners!

Came here with my BFF as a birthday gift and it was great! Loved that the terrarium glass was large and of good quality. The kit had everything we needed and there was a decent variety of plants to choose from at our table. I really appreciated that they had a snack and drinks table (was not expecting that!) and the hosts were very friendly and patient. I genuinely enjoyed the activity and the hosts  + more

Katie Fiedler




The instructor was very knowledgeable and passionate about perfume making and it made the class so enjoyable! Not only did we learn a lot to help us pick perfumes out in the future but we got to create our own personalized scent to take home with the help of the instructor! The space and materials/packaging were so cute and thoughtful. This class was a perfect gift for my girlfriend’s birthday and  + more

Richard Cratty Iii




Lots of fun, simple process with a zen mode in in class!! ‍️ Gift shop vey nice!


Mercedes Inniss




I received a vitual gift card from family, using the gift cards was easy. Picking only one class was the hard part. The class was not intimidating and the instructor was patient. It was my first time at making pottery. I will definitely attend another class.


Nina Cheng




Great class with helpful instructors. I took a friend for a birthday gift and it was fun! Everyone was new to pottery and had the chance to make something they could later take home.


Anonymized ClassBento student




I booked a class for my birthday with a few friends. Everyone loved the class! The teachers made it so fun with candle trivia, helping pour drinks, and just creating an overall incredible vibe. They even gave us all gift cards to use in the shop. I really recommend the class for any event or if you want to just find a fun activity to do with friends.


Paul Oh




A wonderful and educational class! EunYoung is very knowledgeable and patient as a teacher, she was so helpful teaching us all about matcha and how to make a proper cup. She went through the history, origins, types, and instruction on how to prepare matcha. I bought this course as a gift for my wife’s birthday and she enjoyed it a lot. I would recommend anyone who enjoys matcha to try this class. The shop she teaches in is cute too.


Gina Martinelli




The tickets were a gift for my sister for us to take the class with her two daughters. Several busy months later, we were able to schedule it. It was such a fun class! The instructor is personable, knowledgeable, and very engaging. I would definitely recommend this class!


Michele Chirichella Gervat




Great class. Christmas gift to share experience. Loved the atmosphere. Great pesto recipe!! Chef and assistant were awesome.


Phallan Grossman




I got this class as a gift for my best friend as her 25th birthday present. We both absolutely loved this experience. One thing I loved was we learned the overall process of making perfume. If we didn't know what we liked, he guided us through it. I highly recommend, to go with friends, family or a significant other!


Orri Cohen




Very fun and easy to learn. Great birthday gift for my wife and I to do together.


Pamela




This class was a gift from my daughter. Our teacher was engaging, informative, knowledgeable and entertaining (funny)! The professional kitchen was clean, spacious, and well-equipped. We (a class of 16) had plenty of room to observe, participate in demonstrations, and do the work of the class - making dumplings! We learned how to roll a spring roll with rice wrappers, how to make dumpling dough, and four ways to roll and shape dumplings. Our teacher's demonstrations were detail-oriented but not overly complicated. Our creations were steamed and  + more


Pj Linen




We had a great time in our class, it was a perfect birthday present for my boyfriend. He felt like he was on the show Forged in Fire and had a great time. It was a great beginner class, we could do things ourselves but always had our teacher right there to answer any questions or guide us in the right direction. We’ve already talked about doing a next level class!


Carson Elrod




This is a GREAT time. I was given this class as a Christmas present and it's one of the best gifts I've ever gotten. The class size is small. My teacher was Gerard, and he was warm, nurturing, enthusiastic, encouraging, skilled, and patient. This is a no-nonsense class where you really learn by doing. There's a quick hello and then you're geared up and pounding on molten pieces of rebar like you're a Viking blacksmith forging a sword. After hammering, shaping, quenching, grinding, and weaving, four hours later you leave the workshop with a knife  + more


Sabrina




Got this as a Christmas present and I loved it! We got a feel for the clay and were able to just have fun and make little pots and bowls. Definitely want to go back for another class
