As a DC local, I wholeheartedly recommend this guided food tour! It offers a fascinating insight into the rich history and transformation of U St, helping you understand its vibrant character today. The tour includes stops at four diverse restaurants, showcasing American, Ethiopian, Cuban cuisines, and ending with a delightful dessert. Our guide, Vanesa, was incredibly knowledgeable and approachable, eagerly answering questions and engaging with everyone. The walking route is mostly flat and covers just a few blocks, making it accessible for all ages. It truly offers a delightful experience with something for everyone to enjoy!

The guide was fabulous, and the history was outstanding. The food was so-so - 4 stops with one being a regular ice cream store. Interesting foods, but not always tasty.

Thank you for your review and candid feedback. We're delighted you enjoyed the outstanding historical elements and guide, but regret not all the food offerings were to your liking. Exposing guests to new flavors is part of our goal, though we understand certain dishes may not appeal to all tastes. We appreciate you keeping an open mind to try different cuisines. We're grateful you joined us and value your perspective.
