My 4 girlfriends and I had the best time on this food tour of Grenwich Village (and a bit of Soho). Our guide, Diana, was very interesting and knowledgable about that part of New York, and about food and entertainment in the City. Everything we tasted was fresh and tasty. They were super accommodating to our friend who has a... More

This is the 4th food tour I've taken with Foods of New York and it was fabulous. We took the Chinatown tour which is a little more expensive, but I believe the money could not be better spent. The handmade dim sum was so fresh and the Peking duck so succulent! Heaven! I love these tours because you get more... More

My husband and I did the Greenwich Village tour, based on Trip Advisor reviews. It was brilliant fun, we got to try loads of amazing food - no pizza can EVER live up to Joe's now!! Our guide was really friendly and helpful and a proper local. Some of it did feel like a strong sales pitch, but then again... More

Took the food tour of Chelsea and Meat Packing District. Curt (tour guide) was fantastic! Funny and made the tour very interesting. Would highly recommend this tour and the Chelsea area to anyone of any age. Can't wait to go back to this area again. More

Even though I have been to Greenwich Village several times, I learned so many new things about the history of the area. The food tastings were great and I got to try several new kinds of food I have never tried before. I would highly recommend this tour and the tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable. More

I am so glad I joined the Foods of New York Tours. It was a perfect day out to not only enjoy Greenwich Village which I had heard so much about, but also to learn a lot about its multi-faceted food scene that made the area so uniquely different from other parts of NYC. Our guide Curt was just too... More

Our Greenwich Village tour--- in addition to more food than one could possibly consume---featured a wonderful walking tour of the familiar (and a few unfamiliar) streets of the village. Our guide who offered so many fun facts about the history of the East Village, including architecture and restaurants was very knowledgeable and fun. We stopped and ATE at nine different... More

I visit New York 8-12 times a year. I wanted to get a better feel and understanding of the Chinatown area, so I randomly selected Foods of New York. Raheem was our tour guide. All I can say is what a great tour. Great food, great background of restaurants, and found out some history of the area. Not only found... More
