Rachel was an incredible tour guide. We went to 6 different retaurants--I've lived in Richmond 8 years and had never really toured the art district scene. I had definitely been missing out! Wong Gonzalez and Greenleaf Poolhall were stand-outs, but the toasted marshmallow ice cream topper at Charm School, the focaccia bread at Pop's and Asian style bbq ribs at Fatty Smokes made each stop on the tour an exciting revelation in this 6-course meal. 11/5 would recommend. I am a food tours convert!

C., I definitely agree - Richmonders who overlook the Arts District do so to their own detriment! So glad we could share so many of our favorites with you, and thank you for the glowing words! - Brian

I’m now convinced food tours are the best way to get to know a city. We stopped at 6 restaurants during our tour and each one gave us something a little different. Our guides, Rachel and Kelsey, were so great! Very friendly and knowledgeable about the areas of the city and restaurants we visited. At our first stop we had crab tacos that were so delicious I think everyone wanted to get a second one, but Kelsey said we’d be stuffed by the end of the tour and she was right! By the end of our tour we were full and happy.
