Had a blast - Jacob was a great guide. Lots of history facts and good food. Would highly recommend to out-of-towners or people who have just moved to D.C. looking to get to know Georgetown better.

Georgetown walking tour done right! - This adventure was a top 5 experience! We always enjoy the cultural experiences offered by a local foodie tour when we vacation and this one was one of the best we have taken over the years! Zach and Lore were entertaining and easy to get comfortable with for the afternoon stroll and dine! Their knowledge of Georgetown and its historical place in early American society was impressive! I particularly enjoyed their passion for the restaurants they selected for us to sample. This trip was a great value, both monetarily and culturally! Thanks, Zach and Lore for spending an afternoon with us, sharing your experiences and joy for Georgetown history and culture!

Fun and decent afternoon - Our food tour with Zach and Lore was FANTASTIC! All four food stops were so delicious and were so different from each other. They were both so personable and knowledgeable about not only the restaurants we went to, but about the history of Georgetown. We live in the Virginia suburbs and came in for a weekend staycation and absolutely loved this food walking tour. They readily accommodate any food, aversions and preferences. What are you waiting for?? 😍

Great tour, great food! - Lore and Zach were great guides! All 4 stops plus the history made this well worth it. Do not eat before you go! The “taste” at second stop was more than I would eat for a meal. The food was delightful. Fun crowd too. Highly recommend.

Fun Foodie tour in Georgetown - We thoroughly enjoyed the Mangia DC Georgetown walking food tour. Jacob did an excellent job making the tour fun and informative. We enjoyed all four of the food stops. We recommend this to anyone who wants to tour the area and sample local food.

Good narration with okay food. - We found the narration quite good however the food we somewhat weak. For the price a higher level of cuisine was what we expected. Certainly one beverage other than water would have been nice.

Great tour but needs some changes in food locations - Jacob was our guide and did an excellent job walking us through the streets of Georgetown, providing interesting information about the history of the district. As far as the food tour was concerned, the first 2 stops were excellent. These were the Das Ethiopian, and the Stachowski's beef store. I felt the last 2 were disappointing and I would suggest that they be eliminated and replaced.
