  Greg put on an amazing class, he was a great teacher - not only gave us some basic but fun recipes but also taught us essential tools and techniques for basic cocktail building. I had a great time and he did an excellent job teaching students of all abilities, he had great patience and definitely knew his stuff! I would highly recommend!

  My favorite part would be how we learned specific tricks to help make the drinks taste better- for example adding simple syrup to an old fashion or jalapeños to vodka. The teacher was also very knowledgable about everything.

  Class was exactly what I was looking for; I would recommend it to anyone looking to make drinks in their home. We learned how to make at least 10 drinks over about 4 hours so it was an incredible value.

  Greg and Pisano are awesome and Greg's teaching/demonstrating skills are on point! The program exceeded my expectations. It not only assisted with me becoming more acclimated with the bartending scene, but it helped me understand that bartending actually takes skill, time, energy, and is a true profession, considering how unconventional most people think bartending is! Greg and Pisano taught me a lot within that two week course! They also made it fun. It was a challenge for me as well! They did not bullshit anyone, and for that I respect those guys and am honored to have been apart of such and awesome academy! I would recommend A-List Startenders to anyone who wants to learn, and grow in the bartending industry! The course was worth every penny! :)

  It was not what I expected at all... It was 100% better! I thought that it was going to be a blow off bartending class, but it was like bartending boot camp. It was so much fun, very educational, detailed, and confidence building. Pisano and Greg helped develop all of our serving skills, mixing skills, and proper sanitation skills. They were very adamant on the no-spill and sanitation aspect which, to me, is very important and not many bartenders possess these skills. I liked that they asked us to split up with people that we didn't know because, as a bartender, you should be a people person. You need to get out of "your bubble". That is exactly what this program did. There is a little homework, but they want you to learn the top main drinks, garnishes, and glassware. I think that is the proper way to teach people and you get your money's worth! Pisano and Greg are such friendly and fun people! They are perfect for this business. They would laugh with us and make us feel like a little family for the moment. It was definitely a fun time and their program gives you the actual bar/club feel. I think it is very worth the money! Take the class! You will be so proud of yourself and happy that you made it through Greg and Pisano's bartending bootcamp!
