Best experience ever in Venice! The pasta and tiramisu class was so much fun and perfectly organized. We learned to make fresh pasta from scratch and a delicious tiramisu.
Carlos was awesome — friendly, patient, and a great teacher who made everything easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Venice!

this owner started out sweet and wonderful Andrea accommodating when we got to the experience, they flipped and they wanted to charge one year three year-old $97 for to participate in a cooking experience of which they were literally stirring a cream sauce for about a minute. They called us on the phone. Got very hostile with us with them. We ended up leaving now eating a thing avoid this place. It is horrible.

Our family (parents, teen, and preteen) absolutely loved this class! It was easy to follow, engaging, and had us excited to try everything on our own. It was one of our favorite experiences during our visit to Venice from the United States. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and memorable family activity!

Our family had an amazing time taking this cooking class while visiting Venice. Irene was a fantastic instructor and made the experience fun, engaging, and very hands on. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and we learned so much while making delicious pasta.
What really stood out was Irene’s kindness. My wife accidentally left her jewelry behind after taking it off during the class. We didn’t realize it until we got back to our hotel about 30 minutes away. Irene helped us right away and personally brought the jewelry to our hotel! We were incredibly grateful for her generosity.
This class was absolutely worth it and one of the highlights of our trip to Venice. Highly recommend!

My wife and I had a great time. Was great for the price, and they did offer a ton of prosecco throughout the experience. Started off with the Tiramisu so it had time to set. You collectively all do a part of making a big batch of the dessert. But then you build it individually and get to eat your own build. The pasta was good. They give you the option to add either classic tomato sauce, ragu tomato sauce or pesto. But, after you’ve slaved away making your pasta, it all goes into a pile and they cook it together. So you get a little bit of everyone’s pasta. Which slightly grossed me out but I got over it. It was all really good and a great value. Francesca and Irene were funny and knowledgeable and super helpful throughout the process.
Charles_M, May 2026

Such a fun experience. Irene was engaging and a great teacher. We made bruschetta, homemade pasta and tiramisu the traditional way. Simple and delicious. Home made pasta for us from now on. The prosecco was a nice touch too.

Amazing meal and we made new friends. Highly recommend this place. If you arrive before/after, they have a rooftop bar/food option.
Angela_M, May 2026
I didn’t receive the text about where the class was until after the class started. The class was great but too many people were attending. It got hot in the class because of too many people. Not enough sinks to wash hands for 18 people. Really enjoyed the instructor and the food was really good.

Alexei_P, Apr 2026
This was an excellent introduction to Venice. We did this tour the day we arrived and I am glad we did. It was very informative and we got to see what the street food was all about in Venice. The quality was good - no issues afterwards. Though be aware - this is a street food tour, not a restaurant / cuisine overview. The food at the restaurants is to not to be compared to street food.
Michael_W, Apr 2026
It was a lot of fun and the food turned out good. I would recommend the experience. It is definitely worth doing.
peterc_V, Apr 2026

Super cool. Mercedez is a very good teacher to show how to make the local food. Got a quite a few new learnings!
maribel_s, Mar 2026
We enjoyed the cooking experience and that we were able to eat our own pasta at the end with our wine. The cooking area was very nice and we liked that it was inside a restaurant. We give this experience a 10 out of 10. The chef was easy going and very knowledgeable.

Me and my friend did this class and it was fun! parlo was lovely and we learned a lot would recommend BUT the only down fall its not unlimited Prosecco which was one of the main reasons we booked the class it was one glass each course and also was ment to get recipe sent to my email which never received
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Dear Rachel,
Thank you for cooking with us! We are so glad that Paolo made the class such a wonderful and educational experience for you and your friend.
I do want to sincerely apologize that your experience with the drinks did not match our description. I want to be crystal clear for you and for our future guests: the Prosecco during this class is completely and genuinely unlimited. What you experienced was a highly unusual oversight, and we are actively investigating what happened during your session so we can correct it immediately.
Delivering a perfect Venetian experience is our top priority, which is why we have reached out to you directly to make things right and to send over your missing recipes. Thank you for helping us improve, and we are so glad you still had a fantastic time cooking with Paolo!
Best regards,
Enzo

Best experience of our trip to Italy! Paolo was fun, entertaining, and knowledgeable. He was the reason this cooking class is highly recommended by us. He made the food preparation easy to understand and follow. He told us stories of his Nonna and how he was taught to cook. Paulo made the overall experience so enjoyable and delicious too! I am not a cook but I cannot wait to try making the brucchetta, pasta, and tiramisu at home. My husband is a remarkable cook and he also had a fantastic time at the class! Sign up - you wont regret it! Thank you Paolo!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Ciao Tamara! Wow, "Best experience in Italy!" is the ultimate compliment! Paolo will be incredibly touched to read this. He truly loves sharing his Nonna's stories and making the food preparation easy to follow, whether you are just starting out in the kitchen or are a "remarkable cook" like your husband. We are so thrilled that our Venice cooking class made such a great impression and that you are excited to make bruschetta, pasta, and tiramisu at home! Thank you so much for the fantastic recommendation. 🍝👨🍳

You make pasta, tiramisu, and bruschetta while enjoying prosecco and then get to eat what you made. Simply fabulous, and Paulo was an awesome host.
