Beautiful space! Very accommodating

This was the perfect space for my 70th birthday celebration. There was more than enough room for my 50+ guests visit comfortably. The 3 areaswisofas and tables and chairs were very welcoming to group to sit visit and talk. The fully equipped kitchen made preparing and serving the food easy. The speaker and microphones were good. We also had Karaoke and that went wonderfully well in the space. The extra supplies and support from the Culinary Artistas staff was superb. I would not hesitate to rent this space again and recommend it to anyone. Oh! And the location with the best views in San Francisco cannot be beat!

This space is beautiful and clean- equipped with everything you could want and in right in the middle of the iconic Ghirardelli Square. The staff is super easy to work with and made planning my event seamless.

The space was everything we needed and Rachel was incredibly responsive and answered all of questions promptly. Should the need arise, we'd definitely book again.

We booked Culinary Artistas for our baby shower, and we really enjoyed the space. Pros: - There was plenty of space and seating for our guests, and there were even toys and books for the kids who attended. - The kitchen had a ton of items in case we needed something (like extra cutting knives and forks). - Really easy to coordinate with the venue and they were very prompt with answering any questions we had. Cons: - Although parking wasn't too difficult to find, it was a bit pricier simply because it's Ghirardelli Square. - A lot of random people kept walking in the front door. In hindsight, we should have taped a "Private Event" sign on the door.

I rented this venue for my wife's 50th birthday. I was looking for a site for about 80-100 people and this was perfect. I thought I started to look for space too late, but I was able to book this space 2 months in advance. I loved the open space, the location (great views), and all the amenities. There was plenty of kitchenware to use in addition to an oven and space in the fridge. They had Sonos speakers, which you can connect via bluetooth/wifi. There was even enough space for a 2 person band. There was seating for maybe 50, so we rented 4 highboy tables so others had a place to mingle Rachel, the host, responded to questions quickly and was very accommodating. I would definitely book again

Amazing event space! Super spacious and well designed. Since it’s also a cooking school, there were tools available that helped with support when setting up food and snacks. Overall would recommend!
