      Michael had some great restutants picked out for us and the walk thru the Mission district was awesome. From taco’s, beer, mango deserts to cervichi. A true cornucopia of flavors and cultures.

      The Best!

      "Our food tour with Andy was fabulous! Andy is an amazing guide, and we had the best time with him. He is knowledgeable about the SF food scene, passionate about food, and so much fun! He showed us places we never would’ve found on our own; I also left with tons of restaurant recommendations for my stay. Highly recommend!"

      Buena comida Buena gente

      "Had a wonderful time walking the streets of south San Fran. Good people and good vibes all around. Every street corner had a new cultural cuisine with vibrant spice and people that made each meal with Andrew memorable. Definitely a great tour to try out with a good group of friends Andrew has lots of food service knowledge and was pretty poppin with the locals. "

      The hidden food gems of San Francisco

      "My family and I spent a wonderful afternoon with Michael! We have two teenage boys and two preteen girls- Michael was very personable, friendly and accommodating; going out of his way to make sure everyone felt included. He took us to some fantastic little food gems that we never would have found as tourists. He also was very knowledgeable and added fun facts along the way about the city. We would highly recommend this tour especially if you pick Michael as your guide. He is bright light!"

      Wonderful Tour!

      "We had such a great time with Michael exploring San Francisco’s unique food in the Mission area. The variety of food was so fun …. Chocolate Cake to Mexican Pastrami Tacos to Latin American Pupusa’s to Spanish Empanadas to Lychee Cacao Smoothie…. The best part was the time we spent with Michael getting to know more about SF in general, the fascinating Mission specifically; but, getting to know this truly sincere, passionate, and enjoyable young man. "

      Great Evening!

      "This was a great time. My husband and I went to places that we would have never known or thought to go. Michael was a great host and made you feel like you were with family. We are going to China Town with Michael again on Wednesday and really looking forward to that. I would highly recommend this tour. "

      A great food tour with a great host!

      "Andy's incredibly in tune with the Mission District neighborhood and all of the various ethnicities of foods offered on this tour. It's refreshing to meet up with someone who's invested in the food service industry to learn and experience new foods, someone who wants to promote these delicious spots that otherwise may not get noticed."
