Reviews of Tastebud Food Tours and Experiences of New Orleans

Walt Domingo

First time in New Oreleans and we decided to explore the city on a guided food tour. Did not disappoint and we wish we would've done these guided tours on our previous trips. Our guide Kim was amazing! Culinary experienced of over 30 years and a local of the city, he is fun, knowledgeable and vibrant as the city!! If you are in town and decided to do a food tour....ask for Kim, you will not be disappointed

Apryl Lewis

This is the best tour I have been on in quite some time. Amazing food mixed with history just cannot be beat. Our guide Lyndel was the best of the best. Having grown up here she knows the history well, as well as has great recommendations for places around the city. Thankful for her and the opportunity to do this tour. Highly recommend!!

Kizzy Grier

This was more than a food tour. We received unknown history that started in New Orleans but has ripple effects around the country. Roger is an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable and made our time together fun.

Sam H

This food tour was beyond just great food! Our lovely guide Lyndel was so wonderful, informative, and so knowledgeable. She taught us history of the food, culture, buildings, and everything New Orleans related as we walked downtown from place to place. This tour let us get an authentic and diverse taste of New Orleans and the most favoured dishes, and the portions were excellent. If you want a good taste of New Orleans in one tour (literally and historically) then choose this company for sure!

TJ Johnson

This tour is definitely worth it!! Our guide Denise was absolutely fantastic!! She shared history of New Orleans and made the tour entertaining. The food was great! We stopped at 4 restaurants in the French Quarter and samples were very filling! There is alot of walking so wear comfortable shoes! Glad we took this tour! Definitely recommend!!

Jill Buchholz

The tour was fabulous. Great sampling of local cuisine. Lots of good history learned. Roger was so knowledgeable, funny and informative!

Steve Adams

Roger did an incredible job! The history part of the tour was not described much on the website, but it was wonderful - added so much to the tour. I loved the food, of course. My favorite was the Shrimp Creole. By the way, most of the tour was in the pouring rain, but it was worth every step. Roger maneuvered that perfectly, only stopping under covered areas. This was awesome!

Pat Brooks

Suzanne Stone was our guide for the tour. She was very knowledgeable and was able to give us information we were not likely to find elsewhere. She clearly enjoyed her work and as a result, we enjoyed the tour. I personally appreciated the follow up email she sent summarizing what we did and giving us resources for further information. She's a gem.

Suzanne Stone was out tour guide for the Tastebud Tour on Sept 5th 2022. A great historian about the city of New Orleans, food and was able to answer all of our questions. It was a fun and enjoyable experience, all of the food was delicious, I left the tour full and happy. A must do when in the French quarter, its a great way to explore the city through the food.

Stacey MacKenzie

Our French Quarter Food Tour was fantastic. Our guide, Suzette, was lovely and incredibly knowledgeable on the history of New Orleans, we felt like we truly got a bit of a history/architecture tour as well. She also gave us great recommendations for the rest of our stay. And, of course, the food was great!

Erica Lindsey

The tour was AMAZING! Denese was a great tour guide. The tour was so informative of New Orleans history and culture. The food included was good and filling. I would definitely recommend this tour and am looking forward to Taste Bud Tours coming to another city. This was the best way to spend our day in New Orleans.

Erville Vito

I really enjoyed the tour! Our tour guide Lyndel was super knowledgeable of the history of not only the food but New Orleans itself! I learned a lot of interesting facts while enjoying some great food and company: You get to walk around the French Quarter and learn about the history of each street not just bourbon street. Highly recommend!

Chris Miller

We had a great tour today with Kim!! He was extremely knowledgeable of the area and all the great restaurants we should check out. We went to several places where we were able to try some original New Orleans plates, I would definitely recommend this tour but do it at the beginning of your trip so you have plenty of time to checkout all his great recommendations!

Eileen G.

Roger was amazing!!! Knowledgeable, funny, kind, engaging and humble. What I loved the most was that the tour turned out to be a very intimate experience of 3 with the wonderful Roger leading the pack. The food was great and you can tell Roger leaves a lasting impression just by how much people stopped to acknowledge and embrace him. You can feel the soul of New Orleans throught his story telling. I highly recommend!!

Chris Fajardo

First time here in New Orleans and we are glad that we booked with tastebud food tours. Kim was our tour guide and he was awesome! Extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain every detail to us. We feel much more connected with the city. We will definitely be back! Great job Kim!

Shane Stollmack

We had a great time with Richard. He was great at blending the history of the city with the food history (by the way, the muffulettas were AMAZING). I definitely got the most out of the tour because I had plenty of questions to ask to spur him on. One thing to note for those considering this tour is you will walk quite a bit. As someone who likes exercise, I enjoyed it but those less excited about walking need to keep this in mind. My phone logged approximately 10,000 steps.

Kathy C

Linda was our tour guide and she was wonderful!! We ate some amazing foods and learned so much. Would highly recommend.

Blue Mendlo

Loved the tour! We ran accidentally messed up our booking and Tastebud Food Tour was so incredible kind and flexible; they were able to squeeze us in and accommodate us! They are a great company and the tour was so informative and delicious. Look for or request the tour guide Tish. Tish was the sweetest and you could tell she genuinely cared about each and everyone of us (kittens). Thank you Tish and Tastebud Food Tours!

Janna Nicolay

This was my first time in New Orleans and this tour was the highlight of my trip! The customer service was top notch! We enjoyed all the stops we made, the food and drinks were amazing and the guide was so delightful. She shared an enormous amount of historical facts about the area and made other food and drink recommendations off the guided tour to try. Being a foodie and having no idea where to go considering there are so many options I greatly appreciated the recommendations. We absolutely would recommend it to all and will definitely be back again! Thanks again for a wonderful experience!

Hannah Risser

Roger was an excellent guide! He gave us information on both the food as well as the history of the city. We learned about the people and architecture and covered topics both funny and serious. The spread of food was great and the tour never felt long or boring. If you’ve never been to New Orleans and want to get a quick overview of the sights, history, and food, definitely sign up!

Christopher Holley

We did the cocktail history tour and had the best time. Suzanne was an amazing guide and it was a great way to see some of the city and get some delicious drinks we might not have ordered otherwise. Highly recommend

Peggy Adams

Such a great tour! Roger not only talked about the food of New Orleans but also the history and famous stories. Be prepared to fill up your tummy! Thank you, Roger! Highly recommend ❤️

Ryan Ponce De Leon

Tom was a great tour guide!! There were many insights to New Orleans that only got from him. The food was fantastic as well. He showed us the best places to eat and drink. There were also additional places he told us to eat at the he couldn’t fit in the tour. So much fun!

Nicole Slaughter

LOVED this tour - I really enjoyed getting a history of thr French Quarters while walking along to the different eating spots. Roger was super friendly, informative. And educated on NOLA history. I'd highly recommend.

Steve Luebbe

Roger was our guide. We found him to be friendly and very knowledgeable. He was very patient with our group which included some physically handicapped elderly citizens. I recommend him and the tour company to anyone who wants to eat well and learn a little history of New Orleans. 👍👍👍👍👍 …

Tess Wright

We had an amazing time on the food tour! What a great way to sample a little of the authentic creole and Cajun offerings in NOLA when you’re only here for a few days. Tish Casey was our guide and she was friendly, funny and so knowledgeable! Highly recommend!

Amy B

Roger was fantastic as a tour guide! I learned so many interesting facts about NOLA history from him and he was fun and interesting throughout. Great energy, great food and a guide in Roger that entertained and made us enjoy the tour that much more!

Scott Singer

Tish led us on an exceptional tour of New Orleans telling us about the history of the food and the restaurants, as well as history around the city and the people. The restaurants we visited offered excellent food & the experience was worth more than the cost of the tour. Give Tish her BIG bonus because she deserves it!

Valerie Longoria

Susan was absolutely amazing! The tour was extremely informative and entertaining. She took her time and insured our group was well taken care of. Not to forget the restaurants she took us to were delicious!

Eileen Rodriguez

Our guide Kim was fantastic! Personable, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. I highly recommend him. Most of the stops were great. Only one was disappointing in both food and attitude. A worthwhile tour.

A Munoz

Roger was a fantastic and personable guide! We got so much interesting information about your remarkable city. Food was tasty and my sister and I had a great time. Glad we chose your tour. Thanks again Roger 😊 …

Charlene Maraj

We enjoyed our tour with Jim. He was very professional and provided great insight on the history of New Orleans. Along, with reputable restaurants to try out in the area. Lastly, the food choices on the tour were delicious. Worth the price & wait.

Porscha Alonzo

My group of 13 did this tour to celebrate my 30th birthday and it was AMAZING! Kim had so much culinary knowledge and was able to teach us many different things about the city that I never knew. This was my 6th trip to the big easy and I’ve taken multiple tours and I’ve learned the most from this one. Plus, all of the amazing food!!! We left completely stuffed! I would absolutely do this tour again and recommend to to everyone. Just a side note, I forgot to mention that one of my friends was vegetarian (all on me) but Kim was very helpful in trying to resolve the issue on the spot. This is just a heads up for if you have a friend with dietary restrictions don’t be like me and let them know ahead of time and it’ll be all good :)

Michelle Manecki

What a fun, informative and delicious way to walk around the French Quarter! The group size was just perfect and Suzette was such a lovely hostess. As a lover of history, she kept me intrigued and captivated with her facts and knowledge of New Orleans and American history. Her vibe really made this tour what I expected from a New Orleans native. Her love for the city, diverseness, and blend of what makes NOLA so special really shines through when she speaks. Class act and fun. Highly recommend!

Gabrielle Santiago

Tom is incredibly knowledgeable about everything hospitality in New Orleans and the history surrounding it. Plus the food is fantastic. Do it early in your visit so you can pick Tom’s brain about all the best places to go that the tour can’t cover.

Florence Dellolio

My husband and I enjoyed this walking tour very much! Our Tour guide was very knowledgeable and gave great information about the food and history of New Orleans. All the food we tasted was very delicious!

Jasmine Green

Suzanne was wonderful! The food was amazing and her expertise allowed us to learn about the history & culture of New Orleans. Highly recommend booking this tour (and with Suzanne as your guide if you can).

Shirley Robinson

Suzanne was a great tour guide on our food tour of the French Quarter. She told us of the ethnic groups that came to New Orleans and how they influenced NOLA cuisine. She answered all our questions and even emailed us with additional information.

Elissa Smith

Loved this tour! The food was great and our tour guide, Suzanne, was fantastic! Suzanne shared the history of the city and the food along the way and answered all of our questions. Will be recommending this tour to friends in the future and will check out their other tours.

Susan Larson

I loved learning interesting things about Chicago and New Orleans. I highly recommend these tours. Please go hungry as you eat along the way. Miss Bess was our tour guide in Chicago. She was dressed in costume for the White City tour about the world’s fair. It’s definitely worth your time and money. 1/19/2022 went on my second NOLA tour with Roger. It was Awesome and I am FULL! Our group had a great time.

kristine gallagher

Denise was our guide. She was informative and enthusiastic! Be prepared to walk! Good food.. lots of history...met some nice people... great way to spend a few hours in New Orleans...

Rebecca Arey

Our tour guide, Linda, was fantastic! We walked throughout the French Quarter and got to hear about the history of New Orleans and had different places pointed out to us as we made our way to four different restaurants. First restaurant had 2 different sandwiches and I was nervous we’d be too full to experience everything- but the other places we stopped had the perfect size for tasting. We left the tour full (but not stuffed!) and with an appreciation for the different specialties from the area. Definitely 5 stars and I’d recommend it for your first day in New Orleans to get the lay of the land and find spots to check out for your time here!

Craig Butler

This tour was amazing!!! If you want great food and a great history lesson for the city of New Orleans then you need to book with Roger. I am going to book this tour again when I come back.

The Famous Foods of The French Quarter Food Tour= A M A Z I N G ⭐️ This was an exceptional experience! Not only was the food/desert scrumptious; our Chaperone <Tour Guide> was a true Historian concerning the NOLA foods, restaurants, music & the such. I definitely recommend TASTEBUD TOURS when visiting New Orleans Louisiana. You will not regret it.

A highlight of our visit, and a memory to be treasured for years to come. THANK YOU!

Had a tour booked for our first day in NOLA. We were so excited. Unfortunately, our flight was delayed. By the third delay update we knew that we were not going to make our tour. My husband called to reschedule and got to chatting. He explained that we scheduled the tour our first day to get recommendations and the lay of the land. They took the time to go over recommendations for places to eat, drinks, hear music, etc. My husband spent a good 5 minutes on the phone and we made lots of notes. We were so disappointed that we were going to miss 1/2 of our first day and the time they spent on the phone with us meant so much to us. If they take 1/2 as good of care of their guests as they do those that have to cancel you are in great hands. 10/10 recommend!

Lisa Davis

We had a really nice time with Lyndel on our French Quarter food tour. She set an easy pace, provided lots of information about not only the food & the establishments we visited, but also about the area as a whole. The food was all very tasty & big portions! We considered the whole experience as money well spent! You won’t go wrong to book one for yourself!

Robert Saldana

Tour was great wasn’t expecting as huge history lesson but it played great into the food and where it came from. Great experience

C Thomas

Roger was an awesome tour guide!

Kate Fuller

This tour was so much fun! Kim was an excellent tour guide - very good pace for walking and eating. There was never a point where you were too full or uncomfortable. The stops and the food were excellent. LOVED the roast beef po’boy and you definitely can skip breakfast before going out on this tour. Nice balance of city history and food history - learned a lot plus Kim gave great recommendations for where else to go. Highly recommend!

Vivian Borthwick

Our walking food tour was great. We sampled lots of Louisiana seafood dishes and were definitely stuffed by the time we got to our dessert pralines. Roger was personable and full of interesting information about the city and the food.

Jilli Oyenque

This was an absolute grand tour. Reagan knows here history not from the boring side but livens up the stories and gets down to the nitty gritty of who, where they came from and why things are the way they are in the Quarter. We walked, we ate and we talked about everything from why the rice and beans are incorporated, to the architectural styles and their people who make NOLA a unique place. The guide, the food and a friendly fun group made it the Best of the Best! Thank you for a day well spent and the rain. That’s another story….

Mia Topic

We loved Denease! She was the best guide. We did the food tour around the quarter. Denease took us all over and provided a ton of wonderful historic stories. The food stops were a great way to sample a few local foods. I recommend this tour especially if you can get Denease!

Ron Williams

Kim was very knowledgeable and made the tour fun. We appreciated that he was a chef and has worked in many of the establishments in the area. I would recommend Kim and Tastebud Tours for your food tour experience in New Orleans.

Suzanne Chappell

Awesome tour - Kim was fantastic. He shared tons of history and information about the area. I wish we would have done this tour first thing during our stay. The food was stellar at every stop. Definitely a must-do, especially if it’s your first time in the quarter. You get plenty of recommendations for must see places as well as the best spots to eat.

Tanya Tupper

We did the taste of New Orleans du Jour. Our tour guide Kim did a great job explaining the city, he never rushed anyone and even took pictures of each group in front of two iconic spots. It was a very enjoyable day. Thanks Kim.

No partial refund was given or anything 😐 …

Being food-centric our group really appreciated having 6 different stops with various versions of New Orleans cooking. A true highlight of our tour was our guide Lyndel who made a very hot day so enjoyable. Lyndel was full of facts and stories that kept our group involved. We were very happy with tour and service provided and as a bonus got to hear Doreen Ketchen play her clarinet on Royal St.

Raechel

Looking at the reviews prior to my food tour I assumed there would be some sort of deal for leaving a five star review on social media. How else were they receiving so many great reviews??

I did the Original Taste of French Quarter food tour. This was our first time in NOLA together. This tour was the perfect activity to try local favorite dishes of the city. Our tour guide, Lyndel took us to six different restaurants and even had us eat one of the dishes in the park by the Mississippi River (perfect touch). Lyndel even recommended amazing restaurants to try near our Airbnb. I highly recommend this tour if you want to try a little of all the food New Orleans has to offer.

Margaret Alice Hart Davidson

Craig was amazing! So knowledgeable and fun, we all had a great time!!! Thank you for an informative and delicious experience.

Mary Ann Marriott

A fun foodie walking tour with Linda today, was an enjoyable way to see a bit of the local food scene in the French Quarter. Our guide shared lots of local information and tips on enjoying the restaurants economically. Food options were good and portions were just right. We would have enjoyed our last bite to be something sweet to end the "meal" instead of toward the beginning but imagine that that had to do more with the route.We would recommend this tour, A Taste of the French Quarter.

Noreen Petty

Great walking tour! Lots of history and great food. Tish had lots of fun stories and great information!

Kayla Kriesel

Roger was so knowledgeable and friendly! We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with him. Highly recommend.

Anton McDonald

Great and friendly tour guide. Learned a lot from him about New Orleans culture and history.

Eva Schindling

We did the Sunset Food and History Tour and ended up having a private tour with Lyndel - a former history teacher - who naturally was full of interesting insights into New Orleans' past. The food was amazing! I was a bit worried about being a pescetarian at first, but the local cuisine is full of seafood options, and there was only one stop where I got delicious fried green tomatoes instead of meat. If I would do it again, I wouldn't overeat on the po-boy because there was still so much more food to come after that stop.

Haley Sirisky

Thank you Roger with Tastebuds Tours! Fantastic time!

Dan Caro

Tish was our guide and she did a great job! She walked us around the French Quarter and walked us thru the history of the area while we sampled some amazing New Orleans dishes. Each dish had a story and Tish told us the story tied to each New Orleans dish. The tour took about 3 hours and you were able to stop and buy adult beverages at a couple of the stops. You could also take "go" cups with you if you wanted your drink to go. New Orleans is a world-class food town and Tastebud Food Tours is a great way to get a sample of the best that New Orleans has to offer.

Lyndel was a great tour guide! This is the second time I’ve done a NOLA French Quarter walking food tour and it was excellent - again! Highly recommend it - a lot of history which is what makes it so interesting. Thanks!

This is a must do in New Orleans! My fiance and I went on our first day in the city and I highly suggest you do the same. During the tour you get to try a bunch of different restaurants (all with delicious food), receive a lot of really cool inside stories as to the creation of some of the noteable foods, and tons of recommendations on things to do, and awesome historical facts. Our tour guide Linda was so nice and really helped us to get everything we could out of the tour! She was really knowledgable and gave us awesome recommendations for activities and places to check out!

Richard is so sweet, kind and very knowledgeable. As a local living in New Orleans he knew all of the people cooking our meals, treated everyone with respect and gave us so many intriguing stories about the meals we had, their origins and the history of the land and buildings where we enjoyed the meals. Perfect balance of everything.

Linda was my amazing tour guide. She made our trip fun. I learned so much as she was knowledgeable. She was great connecting with us. We felt like friends strolling through the French Quarter. Lots of information on other local places to eat or visit within an hour of NOLA. She also loved teaching her cooking classes and I think this is such a good compliment for a food tour. Thanks Linda. I learned alot. Anna

Lyndel was a great tour guide bringing a lot of Louisiana history in with each stop/dish. The whole tour was about 3 hours and we enjoyed it from start to finish. Lyndel did a great job!

I only had a few short hours in NoLa and wanted to get the most out of my experience. Tastebuds Tours was an excellent choice because we stopped at 5 unique restaurants and got to try many different tastes. My favorite stop was at cornet where we tried craw fish mac. It was delicious. Big thanks to our tour guide for going what I feel was beyond her job to make my experience enjoyable!!! Thanks

This is one of those times where you shouldn't pay attention to the bad reviews. This tour was worth every penny and more importantly the time out of the day to go on. Its not a foodie tour but a tour of the French Quarter in New Orleans that includes a lot of history and good food of New Orleans. We were stuffed by the end! and knew a lot more about the French Quarter when we were done. Our guide Reagan could not have been any better answered every question, provided restaurant recommendations and how they made the food of New Orleans. The intent is not to talk to cooks but to have a taste of this great city and learn. If you want to talk to chefs pay the $$$$ for the classes they teach. If you want to learn and eat and learn where to eat like the real folks do here, this is the tour for you. We had a great experience.

My wife and I went on this tour on Monday with Richard. We can't say enough good things about our experience and Rich. He was full of great historical facts about the New Orleans culture and how it pertained to food. The restaurants were also fantastic. All the food was quick to be served and as is our typical experience in NOLA, the customer service was not lacking. We ate blackened red fish at Cornet with crawfish mac and cheese, fried oysters and shrimp remoulade at Tujague's, Gumbo at The Court of Two Sisters, crab cakes and bread pudding at The Old Coffee Pot, pralines at Laura's Pralines and Candy, and finished off the tour with char grilled oysters at New Orleans Creole Cookery. All the food was fantastic and we went back again to Cornet that night for more. Thank you very much, Rich, for the education and experience.

If you are ever in New Orleans, you'd be doing yourself a disservice by not checking out Tastebud Tours, to get a real feel for the city through food. The tour guide Richard Crawford, Director of New Orleans Operations, has been in the city for 10 years but has a lifetime of knowledge of not only the food in the area, but the city in general. I'd 100% take the same tour if given the opportunity again in the future and would love to have Richard as my guide again.
