San Diego is Food and Beverage! - Stefan our tour guide is a living walking book of knowledge and so entertaining! The food choices was superb paired with a few drinks. The guy knows everybody and felt like a long lost friend showing you around his community. I would do another tour next time in San Diego!

Excellent San Diego food tour - The East Side tour was a fun, memorable evening. The food & drinks we sampled were delicious and well-chosen, like the drunken noodles from Sovereign Thai and the mezcal margarita from Casa Octavio. I especially appreciated Stefan’s insight about the local community and hearing the stories behind the restaurants we visited. Stefan is a friendly, engaging & knowledgeable guide. I’d book another tour with this company and hope to do so in the future.

Must do food tour - Stefan was great and each place we went to offered fantastic food. Beware these are not tapas bites, but a regular serving. You will be full. Definitely something you must do if in San Diego.

AWESOME TOUR! - What an awesome tour! We went last night and we were blown away by all the food, drinks, fun places and great company! Stefan is the best guide you can find and he's so fun and personable, and you can tell he truly loves what he does. You will get to try some amazing food and there is plenty of it! And a bunch of great beer and cocktails too. I take a lot of tours and I would HIGHLY recommend this one. Can't wait to try the Barrio Logan tour next.

Great tour for locals and tourists - Was one of 2 couples from SD on the tour and we all learned/experienced something new. Fantastic tour of locally owned restaurants that do things the right way. Stefan was an excellent guide and made you feel like VIPs at every stop.
