The Culinary Institute of America, San Antonio

My experience was great! Alot of things to look at and enjoy along with great food. It was interesting to see all of the various classes and unique food options. Definitely recommend stopping by!

We were told about this by a friend from Houston, it really is an excellent venue. The food was as brilliantly prepared as you would expect from a culinary school, but it went beyond... the depth of flavour in the stocks and sauces was testament to some first-class teaching. Our waiter was very new, we later heard, but did his job faultlessly (even though we inadvertently asked some difficult questions). The wine pairings option (we chose the premium pairing) were creative and of great quality. Overall, a find to be celebrated, but I suspect you will need to book weeks in advance of your visit, as we did!

This is an amazing school that opens its doors to not only students, but anyone that wants to learn how to cook. They offer cooking demonstrations, boot camps (Mon-Fri) and a live fire (weekends). The chef instructors are knowledgeable and helpful. I love it!

Amazing Place. Very inviting. The Staff is very pleasant.

I'm looking at surprising a very good friend of mine but I cannot find a price to this place how much is it going to cost me can somebody help

I attended the barbecue boot camp several years ago and it was a complete waste. Wait, not quite a waste because I learned how to present a pretty plate. The instructor had an enormous chip on his shoulders and clearly resented not being the celebrity chef he thought he should be. A great deal of time was spent just securing tools and ingredients. Worse, the wood-fired grill was not maintained as it should have been and at five pm, on the dot, all tools were removed by the regular students, finished or not. I’d turn around and my knife had gone, turn again and something else was missing. It has been several years since this dreadful experience and I’m still steamed about it. Don’t do it.

There were 6 of us that ate there yesterday. The restaurant was practically empty when we got there, around 5:45 p.m., and we were the only ones in the restaurant. Our wine, water, and drinks were served promptly. However, once we ordered it took, what we considered an inordinate amount of time for our meals to arrive. My wife, who ordered a steak, had to send it back, because it was cold. A friend, who ordered the same dish found it too fatty, and not that good. Our other friends, who took the advice of the waiter, found their dishes lacking as well. I ordered the steamed shrimp, mussels, sausage, and fried potatoes. The shrimp were very well prepared. The mussels were "gritty, and chewy." The sausage was very good, but the best thing about this dish was the sauce....but there was very little of it. It was almost like a bouillabaisse, only there was no bread, in which to dip it. Were it not for the high prices, we'd likely have given it at least, 1/2 more star.
