Yelpers give their seal of approval to the Astor Center with a 4.5 star rating from over 30 reviews, including:
"I've been privileged to see behind the scenes and these classes and events are totally worth the money - you always get great snacks in addition to the generous pours of wine/spirts/cocktails and the environment is laid back but you still learn a ton. I highly recommend checking one out if you get the chance!"
"Great spot! Enjoy lots and lots of wine and will certainly be back!"
