Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Cole P1 contributionMike is a wealth of knowledge, and his assistants are the nicest, most hard working people imaginable. Give yourself a few extra hours after when the class says it will be over. Sometimes it runs long, and you won't want to leave.Written 6 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Maria GBakersfield, CA3 contributionsWe loved the cooking class, Minerba and her family were very polite and attentive.
Would def recommend this class! Our mole tasted amazing!Written 11 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We got to taste all kinds of cheeses and learn about the different chilies. The class was super fun, friendly and casual and we made an awesome meal. We would highly recommend!Written 1 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- bastien5 contributionsOur cooking class with Chef Victor was amazing, one of the highlights of our trip! First because it felt very authentic. Victor seems like he has genuine relationships with people at the market. He is a proud Oaxacan who learned some of his best recipes from his grandma and who talks about local food and ingredients with knowledge and passion. He speaks English very well but is easy to understand in Spanish as well. He's a very chill and friendly guy, who'll happily talk about life in Mexico or give local recommendations. The food was delicious, with a great variety of dishes and lovely complimentary drinks. No advanced cooking skills required. Just one tip; come with an empty stomach, it's a lot of food. Muchas gracias Victor y el equipo de Etnofood!Written 5 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jana B6 contributionsIt's hard to put into words the joy and kindness Chef Adhey Andrade and her husband brought to this experience. Being welcomed into someone's home and having her share so much of her cultural history, while having such a great time was an absolute treat. I highly, highly recommend you chose this culinary experience. Working in a traditional indigenous kitchen using traditional tools and foods, on a terrace overlooking the city.....nothing can compare. This was great and great fun!Written 5 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- CamarilloGuyCamarillo, CA16 contributionsThe class is a complete experience -- educational, fun, and very hands-on. The trip to the market was informative and the chef who took us explained everything. She also allowed us to look around and explore, and to ask questions about other things in the market.
In the kitchen, the chef and her assistant were patient, kind, and thorough. They carefully demonstrated everything for us before having us try on our own. I speak only a little Spanish, and communication was no problem -- both the chef and her assistant were able to clearly communicate everything in English when necessary (which was often). They also creatively accommodated one of the other participant's food allergies. Together, we made Mole, Tortillas, Quesadillas, and Salsa. At the end, we had an amazing dinner together.
I highly recommend this experience!Written 18 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Nohemi R5 contributionsWe loved this cooking class!!
Su was very knowledgeable and patient with all of us.
We started by making authentic Oaxacan chocolate and drank it with bread. It was very good! We made food from scratch and it was very delicious! Making tortillas with the masa and Memelitas was so fun and so yummy! Their daughter made a cocktail with Mezcal and Jamaica and it was excellent.
We helped make yellow mole with chicken and it was so good!
We truly loved the experience.
Jorge her husband was very nice to pick us up from downtown.
I highly recommend this class.Written 14 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - CamarilloGuyCamarillo, CA16 contributionsThe Art Workshops and Chocolate Shops tour was a fantastic experience.
We were guided through the streets of Oaxaca by knowledgeable, passional individuals. They made extra effort to tailor to time and plan to our specific tastes and interests. We visited several excellent chocolate shops and several printmaking studios. At each location, the work and craftsmanship were outstanding. Quite a bit of the tour was "behind the scenes" -- a chance to see artists at work, to see chocolate being made, and to meet the artists themselves. There was no pressure to buy anything, and we were urged to return on our own time if we wanted to experience more. We received as much or as little explanation and background as we wanted in each location.
Etnofood (and Teolab) are staffed with amazing, caring, dedicated individuals. They are guided by passion for sharing and promoting their culture, and they go out of their way to help visitors hear, see, smell, feel, touch, and -- most importantly -- taste what is most genuine and significant about Oaxaca's culture. I took several classes and tours with this organization, and each one was excellent -- entertaining, enlightening, fun, and educational. In my opinion, there is no better way to learn about and begin to truly appreciate Oaxaca's culture than through Etnofood.Written 5 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Hector PTexas25 contributionsThe Cocoa Chocolate Experience was amazing. We were educated on the different varieties of Cocoa, traditional vs commercial processes, its sustainable growth and some of the history. We learned why some chocolates are bitter and why some are more sweet. We even got to taste varieties of different hot chocolate including a special chocolate desert at the end. Would definitely recommend!Written 2 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Colleen LyonLos Angeles, CA140 contributionsOne of the best tasting experiences that we have had. We loved learning about the different moles and trying them side by side. The mezcal was also fantastic. We brought our 12 year old daughter and she was able to try the moles too!Written 7 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Summer FChicago, IL12 contributionsWe had a lot of fun in this precolumbian cooking class! I learned a lot about indigenous ingredients. You get to sit down and eat your creations with drinks. Very excited to take these recipes home with me. Yes, the instructor is straight and to the point. He has you get hands-on with making all the courses.Written 27 May 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It's an unmissable experience, especially with a group of friends."Written 26 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
