We seriously enjoyed the experience, learning how to cook a new meal and meeting new people.

Fun experience, curated environment and instruction for any date!
I had a fantastic time! The instructor Oliver(?) had fantastic recipes and passion to share about the food, their history, and how to cook - while having a great sense of humor and welcoming attitude. Everything top to bottom was well prepared and organized so we could cook and make things together for the most fun, but also enjoy our time as a small community.

Delicious Food and a Fantastic Chef!
Such a great experience! We went for my mom’s birthday while she was visiting from out of town. The food was delicious, and the chef was fantastic. We had so much fun and can’t wait to take another class with them!!

Not So Romantic Date Night
Too many people. Don't call it a romantic date night if I have to cook and collaborate with strangers. When I was told me and my lady would have to share with two other people I was shocked.
Operator response
Hi there, Thank you for sharing your feedback. Our Romantic Italian Date Night in NYC is designed as a social, interactive group cooking experience rather than a private couples-only class. Guests cook at shared tables, collaborate during certain steps, and then sit down to enjoy the meal together. Many couples enjoy the lively, communal atmosphere — but we understand that some guests may expect a fully private or semi-private setup. We appreciate you giving us a try and wish you the best in finding the experience that matches what you’re looking for.

Dale was super knowledgeable
Dale was great and super knowledgeable. The food was delicious too. I wish we could’ve bought an apron as a souvenir at the end

Fun night out
Very nice experience with good food and a great chef. My main faults are that space is limited so you are sharing with a group and don't get to be involved in making everything. Additionally you are not involved in making everything on the page like the bread, the chef has pre-made that.
Operator response
Hi there, Thank you for your thoughtful review. We’re glad you had a fun night out and enjoyed the food and the chef. Our Romantic Italian Date Night in NYC is designed as a social, guided group experience, so guests cook at shared tables and collaborate during certain steps. We understand that this format can feel different from a fully individual, culinary-school-style class where each person prepares every component independently. Regarding items like the bread, some elements are prepared in advance to ensure timing, quality, and food safety within the class timeframe, while still allowing guests to participate hands-on in the key components of the meal. We appreciate you sharing your perspective and thank you for joining us in our Manhattan kitchen.

BIRTHDAY!
I had an amazing time at the SELFUP Italian cooking class in NYC! My friends and I attended for my birthday, and it was the perfect way to celebrate — fun, interactive, and delicious from start to finish. Chef Oliver was absolutely great. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and made everything easy to follow while keeping the vibe fun and relaxed. He explained techniques clearly, gave helpful tips along the way, and made sure everyone felt included, whether you were a beginner or more experienced in the kitchen. The menu was fantastic, and cooking together made the experience even more special. We laughed, learned, and enjoyed an incredible meal that we made ourselves. It felt like the perfect mix of a cooking class and a night out with friends. Highly recommend SELFUP for a birthday, date night, or group outing — and if you get Chef Oliver, you’re in for a great fun!
