    Rosa our guide was wonderful. She was very engaging and provided great information specifically about BBQ but also about Austin. The pickled jalapeños at Coopers were great along with the brisket there

    Great food and overall a good time. Rosa was very personable and knowledgeable about the food and Austin. Highly recommend
    Only okay.

    There was some confusion where to meet in the morning. Between our two parties we had two different locations listed on our tickets. Our host was very knowledgeable & friendly. The food was only fair.
    Don’t come hungry

    The tour guide Rosa, was AWESOME! For the money we were expecting more food. We only went to 4 restaurants, one the food wasn’t ready and there was nowhere to sit and the last stop was for a smoothie. Very disappointing by everything BUT Rosa!
    Costly for what you get food wise.
    Kathy_M, Apr 2024
    Rosa was a great tour guide. She has a wealth of knowledge. I just felt like it was a little expensive for what we got food wise.
    Perfection

    Just right

    We really enjoyed this food tour. Everything was delicious. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had great fun facts about the area in general in addition to food knowledge. The food was well thought out and balanced. We were glad it wasn’t all bbq. So we weren’t uncomfortably full.
    A great way to sample the tastes of Austin
    Daniel_A, Feb 2024
    Great tastes of different foods plus a nice walking tour of Austin. Rosa did a great job getting us around and procuring all our foods
    Good food and fun!!
    Gay_M, Feb 2024
    Enjoyed the entire tour Rosa does a great job of sharing things about Austin! Liked the food at all the places. Nice introduction to the Austin food scene!
    Great for a late morning walk through downtown Austin!
    Rosa_R, Feb 2024
    There was some rain but our tour guide was still super enthusiastic. We had a great time. Our tour guide was an incredible story teller. The food portions were the perfect size to get a little taste of everything, and you get to walk in between so it helps it not all feel so heavy. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes because they take you along the lake. The path is a little rocky in some spots but it’s well worth the view.
    Delicious food and great guide
