Amazing, authentic experience in Naples - Such a beautiful space for the cooking class! Beautiful tiles on the wall and the two big pizza ovens in the restaurant made it feel like a very authentic experience. We learned how to make and knead the dough, and the different rations of each ingredient. We then used their premade dough (as obviously the dough needed time to rise to be ready to eat) and made our own pizzas. They were delicious! Very fun activity and very fitting for when in Naples. I would definitely recommend

Fun experience, great host - We learned how to make traditional Napoli pizza dough, then whilst that was rising we had some delicious appetisers, followed by assembling the pizza in the kitchen. The food was really delicious, our host (although I forget his name) was amazing and answered all our questions so we can attempt to make pizza at home.

Great food and a lot of fun - This was a fun class. The group was small and we had a good experience. The food was really good, much more to eat than just pizza. Tip: don't eat breakfast before going!

Go Hungry!!! - Had a great time in a small group setting. Was a three course meal that included appetizers and dessert. Go hungry - well worth the money.

Fun Time and best Napoli pizza - We were put with a group of 8 and we had so much fun learning how to knead the dough and making our own pizzas. They serve you a few appetizers with soda and they were delicious. You then get your turn in the kitchen to make your own pizza with all fresh ingredients and watch it cook for just a few minutes In the pizza oven. The most delicious pizza I've ever had. The crust was perfect!! It will be hard to eat pizza in the US again. Make sure to go hungry. They even give you dessert which was delicious as well. We were in port of Napoli for just the day so fun way to spend a couple hours. It was actually more like 2.5 hours. Would recommend.

Amazing food! - We had a great experience with a very small group. The food was amazing. The chef even accommodated some food allergies even though we booked knowing this may not be possible. Amazing customer service.

Not as great as the reviews suggest… - The course seemed overbooked, we were about 20 people and everything seemed a bit chaotic. The chef was nice but spoke little to no Englisch, and the guy translating for him had a very strong accent and was missing key words such as „dough“, „yeast“, etc. Hence it was very hard to understand what was going on. We booked the course based on all the good reviews. But it seems like these were happening in much smaller groups, and maybe with someone else translating. I was a big disappointed ….
