The Local Epicurean

We had an amazing date/couple cooking class and enjoyed it thoroughly. It was just the right amount of involvement in the cooking and the food was simply the best. We've eaten at many high end establishments and this was right up there for quality of food. The chefs were fun, knowledgeable and just good people. We will be back for sure!

Great place for intimate time, the staff was excellent and perfect place to plan a proposal. The instructor, Kobe was awesome and made non cooking people feel comfortable and very patient. I highly enjoyed my time and can't wait to plan another trip.Great experience 🙌

This place is phenomenal. So unique, and the cooking class experience is unlike anything I’ve ever done. The instructor was great and the ingredients are all fresh and delicious. You get to learn how to make your own dish, prepare ingredients, and cook it yourself! I took the Umbrian Tenderloin class and the entire experience was a joy. The food was exquisite. My partner in crime was lucky there were other people in the place, otherwise I would have been much more vocal about how divine the tastes of the dishes were 🫣. The atmosphere is awesome, it’s clean and well maintained, and you can spend a good amount of time shopping in the front looking at all of the different pastas, salts, sauces, and so much more. If you haven’t already tried a class, do it. Worth every penny.

Fumi and Leah were fantastic! This was such a fun experience.

We went for a work office party and had a great time. Mufe (I think I spelled her name right) was a fun teacher and made us all feel successful making tortellini, sauce, and salad. The food was delicious, and the vibe was great. I highly recommend this for a work outing, date night, girls day or any other occasion.

Second year with our holiday family tradition at Local Epicurian. We cooked the Rack of Lamb and Mitch was the best instructor! He was so fun and entertaining. Highly recommended. Best tradition ever!

The staff was very professional and just very pleasant to be around. The atmosphere was a vibe on its own. Kobe was our instructor. We chose the Calabria Lamb for our dinner. He was professional, knowledgeable and he didn't disappoint. I highly recommend him if you go. We will be going back for the Tomahawk soon!

We cooked with my husband’s two sisters and their husbands, 6 of us. It was scrumptious and so much fun. We had a burrata and tomato salad, tenderloin steaks with bernaise sauce and ravioli (which we all made) with a cheese filling, plus a peach ? sorbet with raspberry liqueur sauce. We live in Denver, Colorado but we’ll be back! Highly recommend.

What an amazing and delicious experience!!! Ryan was entertaining, educational and charming. We created the most delicious meal and had a blast!!

Epic experience making fresh pasta for the first time! Ryan was a fantastic instructor, and made the process fun for our family! We will be back!!!

I could not recommend a cooking class here more! This was my first time taking a class and Mitch was our instructor. He was very personable, friendly, and welcoming (as were the rest of the staff that interacted with us during our visit!) The layout of the class was very beginner friendly and Mitch made sure to check in and offer accommodations based on dietary restrictions, skill and comfort level, etc. He was also very informative on tips, tricks and techniques for recreating the dish at home, as well as just for cooking in general! The portion sizes were very generous and the ingredients were incredibly fresh. Our lesson was the 3 course meal of Panzanella Sala, Fog Smoked Risotto and Apricot Sorbet - all of which were equally delicious, perfectly balanced and filling! The Italian market they feature with fresh pasta, bread, cheese, to-go meals, spices, sauces and ingredients was also amazing and well worth the stop alone! All-in-all: great service, amazing food and thorough lessons all for a very reasonable prices. Thank you again, Mitch and team! Can’t wait to book another class already.

Such a great experience! Our instructor Bianca was full of knowledge and had such a fun and engaging personality. Our group of 7 absolutely LOVED Bianca and the food was amazing. Looking forward to visiting again.

We ordered large lasagna’s and garlic bread for a dinner party and they were delicious! Everyone enjoyed! Highly recommend!

My husband & I took the diver scallops class with Jessica. She was a great instructor, we had a really fun time! Our 3 course meal was excellent. The store is super cool. Thank you Steve & Jessica!!

We went for the rack of lamb, homemade spaghetti, wedge salad class tonight. Coby/Kobe (forgot to ask for spelling) was a wonderful teacher! He was funny and had great directions. The whole staff was friendly and interacted with us during our evening. Would LOVE to come back to town to take another class.
