I was already a bartender before I decided to attend. However, contrary to what some ill-informed industry people told me, I knew that it would be well worth the time and money to earn my Mixology and Bar Operations Diploma. I am proud to be a Certified Professional Bartender with confidence to continually improve my craft. Not only that, but I made friends and connections at the Academy and the staff are excellent. The Academy also offers other industry continuing education classes, including proctoring the four-year valid responsible serving certificate test. The perks of being an alum are great as well; it's similar to joining a guild, in my opinion. You can even apply for a 'Cocktail Copyright' through them!

The teachers are so sweet and take the pressure off of you during exams. I took the 5 week Saturday class which is probably the hardest session but the teachers are so patient and walk you through EVERYTHING. Seeing the certification especially from this specifically this school looks super impressive on your resume ESPECIALLY if you have little to no experience during your job hunt. I would highly recommend this class to everyone. Amazing experience !!!!!

It is not an exaggeration to say that Drinks By DELANO is among the most impressive firms in this space that I've have ever had the pleasure of hiring for any event - large or small. Their detailed and customer-focused approach to every aspect of your event , from pre-planning to final execution, was simply superb and far beyond anything I've experienced to date. DELANO, the CEO, for example, even went so far as to inquire as to the various nationalities of our guests as the spanned several European Countries, so that he could offer traditional drink specialties. Upon the conclusion of the event, not only did they leave the venue spotless, they even assisted the cleaning crew that we retained! Just simply amazing service. Most importantly, our guests absolutely raved about the taste, quality, and speed of service for the cocktails, beer and wine. This was an event for nearly 200 guests, so initially , I was hesitant to engage an unknown firm. Their performance was far beyond my expectations and I plan to use them exclusively going forward.

We started throwing in leagues here at end of 2022 and have been enjoying it since. There's bowling football (kinda), darts, and occasionally corn hole. In the summer, there's food trucks and a restaurant has opened at the end of the parking lot. The drink variety is pretty great with both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages along with snacks. You get coaching when you go in for a group to help you learn how to throw and get to play a variety of games. If you have enough time, you can try throwing the big axe. What I like most about Urban is that the employees are super welcoming and the axe community is too if you decide to join a league. You can learn to tweak your throw from a variety of different people and hone in on your technique. You don't feel bad when you're first not great at throwing since so many people want to help. There are various groups that host fundraising events and charities that collaborate like BARCS and Baltimore Humane Society. Give Urban a try!

If you are looking for a way to break the boring cycle of dinner and a movie, The Murder Mystery…read moreCompany (TMMC), is the way to go. My Line Sisters and I wanted to come up with a unique way to celebrate our anniversary. We had done the usual dinner and movie, sip & paint, wine tastings, and restaurant hopping. To commemorate this year, we decided to go with TMMC and it was the best choice we could have made. We booked a private event with them. We had the opportunity to select our mystery based on the number of participants. We opted to do a one actor mystery centering around a masquerade ball. The actor arrived early to our private venue with such a fun and positive attitude. He took the time to understand our dynamics which was helpful in designating who would play which roles. We were provided props that included costumes and information about the role we were chosen to play. Please note, we are a chatty, free spirited group of ladies that love to fellowship. The actor managed to go with the flow and keep us somewhat focused and on mission...which was to solve the murder. We had a five-star good time. We all left with plans to do it again. If you want to do something outside the box with a get together of friends, colleagues, or family, I highly recommend TMMC. I wish I could show pics of the fun we had. Happy murder solving!

She responded to my questions quickly and was always willing to adjust our invoices or provide recommendations. They are also the most affordable company I've found in the DC area. On site, the catering team went above and beyond to ensure our events went seamlessly. I have never had guests compliment the staff and the menu as much as they did with St. Germain! As the event coordinator, I appreciated that Ceecho, Donal, and Johnny checked in with me throughout the event, quickly adjusted to the schedule changes, and were efficient and helpful throughout the set up and tear down process. I highly recommend Saint Germain for our next catered function in DC! We will be a repeat customer for sure!

She patiently answered all of my questions and made sure my order was correct. I have never ordered from a catering service and I was nervous! I was so impressed that I am doing the happy dance. The brisket was tasty and they even sent over extra gravy for the brisket. The sweet potato and carrot side dish was mouth watering. Even on zoom, my family and I were trying to figure out the ingredients. It was delicious. The chicken soup had large pieces of chicken and carrots. They gave us a large number of matzah balls for the soup too. The chocolate torte was fabulous. I couldn't help from licking the knife as I portioned it out for my family. The delivery was excellent and the delivery person was wearing gloves and a mask. We were missing one item and I called Karla, she had someone deliver it within minutes. The portions were plentiful for 10 people and the price was reasonable. I highly recommend La Prima catering and I won't hesitate to order from them again. Thank you for saving our holiday celebration!

Anyone who's made a proper Passover dinner knows that it isn't for the faint hearted…read more Ya gotta have brisket. I'm not exactly sure why you have to have brisket. I'd totally be fine with a nice prime rib one year... but you have to have brisket. Your meal also must include no leavaners... rising agents... yeast... anything like that. Then you have to have *Charoset (basically an apple and nut salad) *Horseradish *It'd be weird to not have gefilte fish *100 other things Basically it's a pain in the neck. So just the thought of trying to shop and get all of these things in the current climate was mind numbing. La Prima Catering to the rescue! Luckily I am part of a group where local restaurants and food services are posting info and I caught wind that La Prima was taking last minute orders for Passover. The price was right, the meal sounded delicious, and the woman Karla even reached out to me after I asked a question on the message board. It was clear she was responsive. Let me tell you! They really killed it, to be honest. Everything we got was fantastic. The brisket was super tender and they included a TON of extra gravy like my mother had asked for. The matzo ball soup was quite good with tons of fresh hand shredded chicken pieces. The tzimmes (which I had never had before) was indulgent with a rich depth of sweetness that in itself deserves 5 stars. The meal also included charoset (I prefer mine with a little more wine flavor). And the flourless chocolate cake which was chocolate decadence in every way shape and form. It was rich, and chocolatey, and it was honestly a mousse like consistency which I didn't mind one bit. It was the perfect finish. Me and my fam did our first virtual Passover like many of us around the nation and it went really well. I might honestly lobby for us to just order from La Prima next year to save one of us the hassle. I would be totally fine making like one thing (maybe a potato kugel) and getting the rest from La Prima. It was that good. Thank you La Prima. Thank you for saving our Passover. Thank you for dealing with my Jewish mother (she's the one that ordered). And thank you for putting a lot of love into that food you sent. It really made our holiday.

Jacob also brought in some nice dinnerware and furniture, specifically some chairs and a nice loveseat for a small ceremony and excellent pictures.
