This "cooking class" felt more like a casual dinner experience than an instructional session. The recipe-following approach lacked the expected teaching and proactive engagement with skills and ingredients.
Unfortunately, there were off-putting transphobic comments made by the chef, making the atmosphere uncomfortable. I interjected since it is not ok to make comments degrading someone’s identity because of your lack of understanding. Also for the price, I came to cook not talk politics or feel uncomfortable.
I was also surprised by some of the prep like washing lettuce, I get this needs to get done but everyone knows how to wash lettuce, focusing on the other aspects that most people don’t know would have been more beneficial.
I do want to highlight that the end products were delicious. Hopefully changes are made to the format to elevate the experience.

Thank you for such a fun class, Chef! My aunt and I wouldn’t have enjoyed ourselves as much as we did if you weren’t the MC. We’ll do you justice in the kitchen at home with all that we learned. Keep teaching and hopefully your future classes are filled with guests that like wasabi 😉

This was a poorly prepped class and did not even come close to a cooking class. What should've been a team bonding experience where we learn about Mexican tacos and how to make them was us hanging out in some bar filled with smoke while a few team members prepped salsa or the protein. We did not make the tortillas and very few toppings were provided. Unfortunately, many of the team members felt discriminated against with inappropriate comments made throughout the class and although we were promised adjustments for dietary restrictions, these were poor adjustments. No one was offered cheese as a topping since we had a dietary restriction, vegetarians were singled out. And comments were made that we were a difficult group as we were 24 people and had so many different restrictions. None of the restrictions were out of the ordinary. It should've been easy to accommodate by providing regular taco toppings that people could just opt out of putting on their tacos. A few of my group had to order food from the bar b/c this class did not provide valid alternatives after promising to accommodate the dietary restrictions. Class pop also only offered 50% refund even though a proper cooking class was not delivered and no one would ever even argue that it was a passable cooking class. I was embarrassed that I chose this class for a company event and believed the many highly rated reviews. Will not be using this platform again.

Keith was absolutely awesome. Knowledgeable, friendly and an all-around great time. We did this as a date night and it was the perfect way to reconnect and learn something new together. We had fun with a new couple we hadn’t met, but this would also be a blast to book with other friends for a group night. I will be recommending to friends as well as bringing others back for additional classes. Thank you so much, Chef Keith!

Chef Keith, What a wonderful and fun experience. It was perfect. We loved watching and learning from you. The food was delicious. I can’t believe how good it all was and the 40 lb blue fin tuna flown in from Hawaii out of this world. Thank you for helping make my birthday memorable!! Looking forward to learning more dishes from you.

This was my first time taking a cooking class of any kind and it was fantastic. Chef Keith is very personable and kept the whole class engaged. His cooking style is relaxed and not overly complicated, so I left feeling like I can definitely replicate what we were taught.

While skeptical of the venue, the class was fun, personable and honestly a great atmosphere despite my reservations. We learned a lot, he was very careful with sanitation in mind for food and guests. There was plenty of food and didn’t leave hungry! Even with my athletic boyfriend who can eat, just really, sooooo much!

My wife and I were in Vegas looking for something different to do. Chief Keith was great. He walked us through the Sushi Roll process. I feel comfortable now making basic rolls. Very nice personality ,very professional. We were full when we left. We made extra rolls to go. We would repeat a do the next level class.

Chef Keith was personable and fun. We enjoyed this aspect of the event. However we were disappointed with the venue - a smoky tavern!! Really?! For a culinary class?? , We had purchased a Groupon advertising sushi lessons and FULL MEAL for 2. All I can say is we should have eaten before we got there. We made two rolls between the two of us. We left very hungry. Unless Groupon thinks that one California roll per person is a full meal?? There is obviously a disconnect between what Groupon advertises and the reality of this Golden Apron Class. Nothing against Chef Keith - great guy, knowledgeable and fun teacher, however the overall experience was unfortunately much less than what we expected when we purchased this deal on Groupon.

Chef Keith was great! The location was not the most ideal and we were surprised to find out it was in such a dive bar when we arrived and felt a little mislead by the pictures we saw beforehand. However, we enjoyed the experience altogether.

Chef Keith was wonderful; he was light and fun and kept all participants involved and well informed. Definitely learned a lot of new skills, even as someone who cooks daily (and my partner a former professional chef!). Thank you, Keith!
I do have some hesitation on booking with Golden Apron again, however. When i initially booked this experience, my confirmation email came through for the noon event. It took me multiple inquiries to get it corrected. Then my friend booked the same experience so that we could enjoy it together; she received confirmation for the 7pm experience but then day-of received an auto-email asking if she enjoied her 12pm class! Golden Apron - Class Pop - had zero representatives working on the weekend, even though most of their business happens ON THE WEEKEND! Hopefully she's provided a refund or availability to re-book, but it was extremely disappointing. Not sure i'd book with Classpop again.

Keith is knowledgeable and passionate about sushi making. He offered great tips and took time to show us how this art is prepared. He is a patient individual. The class size was too large for me. I would have also like to see fish incorporated into this class. Overall it’s a great beginners course.

Great experience, over our expectations. We learned from the basics how to prepare the rice and set up the cooking area to prepare sushi, and of course how to make some rolls, they were delicious. The venue was good as well. Keith was really supportive and he is a great sushi chef. We will recommend this class to everybody and we would like to try Keith's Cajun and Greek food classes as well.

Chef Keith was easy to talk with and clearly knew his stuff — the food was utterly delectable. Would recommend!

I really appreciated that Chef Keith took the time to answer all of our questions in full. He's clearly very talented and a wealth of knowledge. We booked him for a New Orleans-inspired cooking class, and I felt like I was back home. The gumbo was authentic, the bread pudding was perfectly moist and the spices were perfectly balanced. You'll leave his classes with new recipes, as well as a number of great stories from his travels. An A+ experience overall!
