Really delicious - We had a great experience on the gastronomic tour with Dash. He is an excellent guide, you can tell he loves his work, explains everything very well and was always attentive to any need. The dishes are really what you expect to find on this tour, they are really delicious and the portions are generous. We loved it and highly recommend it!!!

More than a Dash! - Dash is a true Chicago native who loves his town and knows so much about the city. He gave us a ton of information and we enjoyed the food tastings as well.

The Chicago Private Food Tour with Chicago Dave rocks! - We took the Chicago Private Food Tour with a group of nine friends. Our guide, Chicago Dave, was great. As he navigated us to the restaurants he told us much about the history of Chicago and some of the iconic buildings. We sampled Chicago dogs, Chicago roast beef and Chicago pizza. All were great. We were full and happy at the end of the tour. Chicago Dave also did a great job of taking many pictures of the group and texting them to us in real time. I highly recommend this tour.

Wonderful tour - We had an amazing tour with Dash! It was raining on and off and he was able to think of a new route quickly to keep us dry but still had the most delicious three stops. He was very knowledgeable and shared so many interesting new and old facts about Chicago. My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time and left the tour full and happy! 10/10 recommend for anyone who lives in town or visiting!

Exceptional tour. A great way to get a deeper perspective of Chicago! - This food tour was great. Dash was informative, entertaining, and very knowledgeable of Chicago of course. What made it a 5-star experience was his ability to adapt his stories and his examples to our tour. He was able to add so much depth to the Chicago history by relating examples to our tour and in response to our questions. I’m a curious person and I love these tours ok many cities, and this was my favorite one, ever. If I could give Dash 6-stars I would. He even kept both my teenage kids engaged and even trying new foods. Great tour indeed!

Full bellies and happy faces 10/10 tour - Dash was awesome. Full of knowledge and took us to great spots for good eats. Really happy with the whole tour. Would highly recommend.

Chicago Small Food Group Tour - Dash is an excellent story teller and guide! We enjoyed every minute of our tour along with the great food. Highly recommend this tour and Dash! We are ready to go back and go on another tour!

Great Tour, Better Food, Awesome Tour Guide - The tour was amazing! Dash was so informative, friendly, and overall an AMAZING tour guide! Would totally recommend for anyone looking to get a different look at Chicago and it’s food and culture!!!

Essential Chicago - I was looking forward to this tour but l a little apprehensive, since walking is not always that easy for me – especially long treks with a fast-moving group – thankfully it wasn’t too much and fortunately my young adult daughter was there to assist and hang back with me and support as necessary- fortunate again, this was a great small group - interesting and personable people who recognized and adhered mostly to a moderate pace There was some walking but also an opportunity to ride the “L” which I really wanted to do anyway -I love a good hot dog and this was a treat and my favorite on the tour. The Italian beef was enjoyable but since I like food a little spicy – I missed that savory accent, however most of the group indicated this as their preference – I live in the NY metropolitan area – I know good pizza, in a number of varieties including deep-dish- this was the most disappointing – I would call it more tomato pie than pizza – and my daughter agreed. Nevertheless, the restaurant was accommodating the guide was knowledgeable and shared information that was enlightening and useful. All things considered – this is a tour I would recommend and it’s essential Chicago!

Only 3 food items to test - I've done food tours all over the world but this is the first one that only offered 3 items to eat. The only reason I give it 4 stars and not less is because Rich the guide made it a great experience.
