WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Los Angeles
Sasha G.
02/21/2026
We made pasta from scratch and Chef Luana was incredible!! I cannot recommend her enough, she is so caring and attentive. She pays attention to all the little details and we got to eat the pasta we made at the end... best pasta I've had beside from Italy! She is the sweetest and I will definitely come back!

My husband and I have been wanting to take a cooking class for awhile. We love steak and Italian food so much so Chef Francesca's Italian steakhouse class piqued our interest. The drive was reasonable to Torrance from South LA. Parking was easy. Her home was so cute and clean and charming! Chef Francesca is such a kind, focused and effective teacher and coach. My husband Jeremy and I got to share the workload evenly. What I loved was how easy and fast the recipes were and how easy it was to time everything out while keeping a clean kitchen. The food was superb and we had amazing leftovers the next day. We had an amazing time and would go back to her or try another class with Cozymeal. I even love how she teaches earlier so that she can be a present mom, just an awesome lady. I feel like I can actually cook everything she presented. Please share with her or post so others know :) Thanks a bunch! Nicole

We made fettuccini and spaghetti with a vegetable sauce and a ragu sauce and IT WAS AMAZING! Such a great experience as well, my girlfriend loved it. 10/10 I will order dinner as well

What a lovely experience. 10/10!! My girlfriend and I booked this for Valentine's Day - pasta making in the morning. We were a bit hesitant to walk into a stranger's home with other strangers (lol), but Chef Francesca made us feel instantly right at home. Not only is she an incredible chef and clearly experienced, but she has a kind, positive soul and clearly loves what she does. Her home is also sweet. Contemporary and heartfelt touches of Italy. She also had cheese and crackers for us to touch on - real parm from Sardinia. We cooked two dishes altogether and they were YUM; portions were generous too...did not eat the rest of the day. So satisfied. Would absolutely recommend and do this again.
