This food tour was good, not great. The first stop felt very authentic and the food was excellent but it was lackluster from there. You share off of the same plate with several others on 2 of the 3 stops. I would even find this odd in a non-COVID time — but especially find this off-putting during this time. It was an enjoyable time, but nothing I would recommend as a must-do to others.

This was my 1st food tour to do. I enjoyed it! I loved the Lebanese Food and normally don't eat fish, but the Mexican seafood was good. We received more food than thought we would. I liked hearing about the historical buildings.

Wayne was a fantastic tour guide and had a great amount of interesting and engaging history to share along with fun for experiences. The stop at Vola's found the staff and restaurant a bit overwhelmed and disorganized but Wayne made it as good as possible. Great tour for a family!
