I dragged my bf to this pasta & gelato class and honestly, we both LOVED it way more than we thought. Chef Valentina was hilarious, made everyone feel like we were just friends hanging out, not a formal class. The pasta dough was tricky at first (my arms got a workout rolling it, lol) but hers turned out so smooth. I accidentally cracked an egg on the table and nobody even blinked, just laughed and helped me clean it up. The gelato part was my fave—chocolate with sea salt, which I never woulda tried if she hadn’t suggested it. We were with a couple from Brazil and a family with kids, and everyone got involved. The room was a bit warm but there was plenty of water. We ate everything we made, and even got seconds! Def recommend if you want something hands-on and DELICIOUS in Rome.

Fun class, pretty chill vibe overall. We were a group of 12 so it felt a bit crowded at the tables but that made it more lively. The chef, Marco, kept it moving and explained every step (even if his English was a bit wobbly sometimes, but we got it). Making ravioli was harder than Youtube makes it look, haha. Gelato demo was cool but we didn’t actually get to churn it ourselves. Still, tasting the finished product made up for it. Good for couples or even solo. Would’ve liked a bit more time to eat at the end but we had to be out for the next group. Still worth it!

It was pretty decent. Pasta making is fun but honestly I expected more hands-on for the gelato part. Also, a bit toooo many people in the class, so I felt like we were bumping elbows a lot. The staff were friendly and the food tasted fresh. If you’re looking for something different from the usual sightseeing, worth a shot, just maybe not on a super hot day.

Took my mom for her birthday and it was such a unique thing to do. The chef (Giada, I think?) was super patient with us and kept the jokes coming. My tagliatelle came out a bit lumpy but tasted soooo good with their house pesto sauce. The class moved at a good pace, not rushed. My mom loved learning the gelato secrets—she’s already planning to try it at home. Nice group, international crowd. FYI, can’t take pics during the actual gelato churning but we got plenty after. Would do it again!

Went solo and had a blast. Met a couple from Canada and a group of friends from Ireland. The instructor, Luca, was bubbly and kept us all chatting. Pasta was surprisingly easy (with help). Gelato was creamy but I wish we could’ve tried more flavors. A bit warm inside but they had fans. Bring your appetite!

I booked this for my husband and 2 teens (14 & 16) and it exceeded my expectations! The chef was so energetic, kept everyone involved (even my shy son). We made fettuccine and ravioli, plus strawberry gelato. My daughter got flour everywhere and the chef just laughed and showed her how to knead it right. The best part was eating together at the end, wine for us and juice for the kids. Class was about 2.5 hours, didn’t feel rushed. Perfect family activity.

Had so much fun! We did this on a whim after wandering Rome all day and it was the highlight. Chef Paolo is a LEGEND—his stories about his grandma’s recipes made it feel special. The hands-on part was messy but that’s half the fun. The tiramisu gelato was insane (never knew you could make that). It’s more relaxed than a formal class, just good vibes and cooool people.

It was ok. The pasta making was cool, but the room felt crowded and noisy (maybe too many people in our session?). The chef did her best, but I couldn’t always hear her. I liked the taste of the gelato, but the process was more like a demo than a real class. Still, fun for groups, just not super hands-on.

Did this with my friend as a fun break from museums. It was surprisingly hard to get the dough right! We made a total mess and flour was EVERYWHERE, but the staff just laughed and helped us out. The pistachio gelato was dreamy. Only downside was the class started a bit late because the earlier session ran long. Still, we left happy (and stuffed).

Booked as a couple’s treat and we were not disappointed. Team was super friendly, even let us pick the sauce we wanted for our pasta. The chef (Simona) was great at making everyone feel included, even if you had zero skills. Gelato tasting at the end = chef’s kiss. Bring a camera for the pasta bits, but they ask for no pics during gelato making. 10/10!

Didn’t expect to enjoy a cooking class this much but honestly, it was EPIC. The chef was super chill, played old Italian songs while we cooked, and made sure everyone got hands-on. I now know how to do pasta from scratch (gonna show off at my next dinner party). The pistachio gelato…wow. Would do it again!

Fun experience! Went with my sister and we laughed the whole time. The chef let us pick between ravioli and tagliatelle, which was cool. It was a bit crowded but that just made it more lively. Learned a lot about making real gelato vs what we have back home. Would have liked a few more flavors to try but otherwise great.

My wife and I tried this on our last night in Rome. What a night! The chef, Luca, was so funny and helpful. We made egg pasta and a rich tomato sauce, then learned how to whip up gelato from scratch. Eating together at the end was a nice touch. Felt like a real Italian family meal.

Good fun for our teens. Chef was enthusiastic and managed to get everyone kneading and rolling (even my moody son, lol). Felt a bit touristy but food tasted legit. Loved the gelato, especially the chocolate one. Wish we could take recipes home, though.

Decent class but a little rushed. Instructor was friendly but we had to move quick between steps. Pasta was tasty, gelato was a highlight. Room was a bit warm. Maybe better if smaller group? Still, learned new stuff.

This was my first time making pasta from scratch and it turned out sooo much better than I expected! The chef was patient and answered all our questions (even the silly ones). The gelato segment was shorter than I thought but the flavors were delicious. Extra points for the staff playing music while we worked. Would come again!

Took my parents as a surprise. The class was a blast. Chef told stories about his childhood in Sicily while teaching us how to make ravioli. My dad couldn’t stop laughing at his own pasta shape attempts. The chocolate gelato was rich and creamy. Nice to do something different as a family.

The pasta class is a fun way to spend a couple hours. Bit touristy but the chef was super friendly. We learned how to make two types of pasta, and the gelato at the end was a perfect treat. Room gets a little loud, but that’s part of the fun. Would recommend for friends or families.

Went solo, made friends quick. The chef remembered everyone’s name (impressive). Class was hands-on, gelato part was more like a demo but we all got to taste. A bit crowded but fun. Would do again with friends.
