Business ProfileforArt of Bartending School, LLC

I attended one session and was disappointed by the lack of seriousness. The facility is deplorable, you get a dry bar with old plastic containers that spill dye on you and the plastic pouring spouts are clogged and dont pour. The liquor bottles are so old you cannot even read the label! The instructor ***** is a nice man but not an expert mixologist, rather a retired average bartender and a careless instructor going through the motions rather than teaching (he just wants to go home). I had to beg him for feedback on my drinks, and he would only judge the finished product rather than the process. Questions were discouraged. The absentee owner of this business could care less whether you succeed or not as a bartender. After I expressed my constructive feedback and asked to cancel after the 1st session, he tried keep all my money. On top of that, he threw out property I left behind and told him I would pick up. He knows how bad his service is and he doesnt seem to care! A close relative took a bartending class elsewhere and was surprised by my experience here. If you care about training for your future in bartending, DO NOT waste your time and money here. Im going out of my way to attend a school that actually cares and will train me properly. Shame on the owner ********************* for taking advantage of people who want to break into the industry. He is NOT a stand up guy.
