The tour was action packed with lots of different restaurant experiences and lots of neighborhood history sprinkled in. Our tour guide Adam was great. He made it fun and interesting. As a local I would recommend it for everyone.

We really enjoyed touring with Adam. He is a talented guide: knowledgeable, entertaining, and engaging. Sometimes food tours are too little food and too much touring or the other way around. This one had great balance of food and tour. It was freezing outside but Adam made sure we had opportunities to thaw out during the tour. We especially enjoyed the artichoke pizza, falafel, Cuban empanadas, and the hot chocolate. Greenwich and West Village are really interesting and beautiful to tour; we had a great time!

I went on this tour with my date; it was raining so it was just the two of us with the tour guide, Adam. Adam was very friendly and knowledgeable, and we had a great time!
