Cassandra_Y, May 2023

Claire did a great job and told us a lot about the history of the street. Come hungry, it’s a ton of food!

Fun little tour. Food and a bit of NYC history

Blake_S, May 2023

Cheese Boat! We went back and ate dinner there again later. :) Also have the urge to rewatch Gangs of New York now.

The combination of the storytelling and the great food was great!

Don't eat at all before the tour. You will get to taste a lot of international cuisine. The nice storytelling about Hell's Kitchen is the sauce of the tour. Also very good prepared when having food allergies. We loved it!

The food tour was delicious and plentiful!! Loved the variety of stops and quality of the food!! Claire easily captured our attention with her great stories of the neighborhood! She is engaging, thoughtful and an amazing host. Plus, she even carries a Tide pen in her bag of tricks!!

Great way to spend time in NYC!

Delicious food and a great tour guide! We learned so much about Hell’s Kitchen, it’s history, and its food. We would take the tour again it was that good.

Foodies and History Buffs Will Love This Tour!

Kenneth_W, Dec 2022

Good eats and great Tour Guide. We highly recommend this tour. We enjoyed the generous portions at each stop (something different at each stop). Alex was great and so well versed in the history of Hells Kitchen; he wants you to have an appreciation of the area and you feel that as he shares the history. A

Awesome!

A New Take on Dinner and a Show!

Bridgette_K, Nov 2022

My boyfriend and I decided to book this as an alternative to lunch before our Broadway show. I am so glad we did! We got to visit 5 places we woud've never gone to before in a neighborhood we knew very little about. For the price, we were full of food and full of new information about Hell's Kitchen. We liked the places so much that we went back to two of them the following day. Alex, our guide, was so well-informed on the history of Hell's Kitchen and kept the group moving and entertained. After this, we have decided we will always book food tours wherever we travel. I can't say enough good things about this experience.

Exceptional!!
