Fantastic Tour - Coda was a fabulous guide. It was fun going on a food tour where we were able to make some choices about what we wanted to eat.

Exactly what we needed - Our guide was knowledgeable, personable and not only provided a fun barbecue tasting experience but also helped us make some decisions about what attractions to see during the rest of our trip.

Our guide made this a great experience! - Owen was a great guide! Within 5 minutes it felt like we had met a friend and gone out for food together. We ended up being the only ones on our tour which was very lucky! He made the tour all about us and our interests, and even organised the food in a way that suited us better. Thank you so much! Only thing I would say - the meeting point is a bit odd outside a parking garage, maybe that can be made a little more intuitive…

Great Barbecue - Great Guide - Mike did an amazing job. He was early to meet us, gave us some knowledge about the city and overall a great conversationalist. He took us to some great barbecue places (Ironworks was my favorite) and we ended up a a nice little spot on the lake for a refreshing adult beverage to end the day. Great tour.

BBQ in Austin - It was a record hot day in Austin but Mike kept us in the shade most of the time. The amount of food you get at each place is small-just one meat to share. But Mike got us some extras and brought water for us. We were not blown away by the BBQ itself. Cooper’s was the best.
