DO THIS TOUR - I joined this tour TODAY in Uptown Dallas by Food Tours of America.
It was recommended to me by a friend, and I personally can't recommend it highly enough!
Our guide, Veronica, was amazing. She was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable of the local food scene and it was just really infectious to us all. She even included details of the city's history, which made it even more memorable. Especially being someone who grew up here - apparently knowing nothing of all we had to offer!
The tour featured a variety of dishes from some of the best local restaurants, showing the incredible diversity of flavors you can find here in Dallas. You can definitely tell each stop was carefully selected, and Veronica shared stories about the ingredients and inspiration behind each dish. It really added a personal touch to the experience.
What I loved most was the chance to meet other guests on the tour and share our thoughts on each item. Veronica made sure each of us felt included and engaged, which created a warm and inviting atmosphere. Plus, she had some great recommendations for other places to visit after the tour, so now I have even more restaurants to experience!
Overall, this food tour was a wonderful way to explore Dallas and its vibrant culinary scene. I left full, with new friends, and a deeper appreciation for the local culture even having been raised here.
If you're in Dallas, I highly suggest booking a tour with Food Tours of America - You won't regret it!

Fun Sunday Afternoon! - The trolley rides were super fun and I enjoyed learning about the history of each trolley car! The food was great, we went to 3 restaurants and a bakery. Veronica, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and fun.
Definitely will recommend to my friends and family!

Good food and street car rides too - We have done quite a few food tours in various cities. Food on this one was especially good, and Brianna was an excellent guide. Even though there was only my wife and I on the tour, and as a result, she had to know that her tips would be fewer than she would have liked, she did not skimp on her attention to us. All food was good too. Definitely recommended. Street cars and her description of them and their history was a special treat.

Great activity for blind guest & those that would shy away from culturally different foods. - Wonderful and one of our party was blind. We called last minute for a morning tour & they were VERY accommodating. Because we requested morning & they were agreeeable, ours was a private tour so we gladly accepted the additional fee. Justin was our guide & is most informative. The variety of cuisines & dishes was impressive. Most impressive however, was the service & attention from the owner of Baboush. His, also, were the most surprising, yet delicious tastings. You do NOT go away hungry. Word of advice, pace yourself from the start! We also added the alcohol pairings & we’re pleased we did.
