A great walking food tour. Nicholas and Yoh are a wonderful chef couple. We took the tour on a very cold day and windy in Brooklyn. We were able to take shelter in most stops. The couple has great relationships with all the stops on the tour. You will get a meal worth of food. We had a great experience and would recommend to all.

Different type of food tour

Allie_V, Mar 2026
Depends on the type of food tour you want. The tour operators directed us to some fabulous food from local places. However they didn’t give us any historical information about the area or the food. I’m used to food tours where you get both - a tour of food plus the history. If you’re looking for both this isn’t the food tour for you but if you just want to try amazing local food then go for it.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for joining us. We’re soo glad you enjoyed the fabulous food! Our tour is intentionally designed to highlight the incredible local spots and flavors that make Brooklyn one of the most exciting food neighborhoods in the world. Rather than being a traditional history tour, the experience focuses on discovering amazing dishes from carefully curated neighborhood gems and exploring the area’s food culture like a local. We appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you again for more delicious discoveries.

Wonderful experience in multi cultural Brooklyn

Hans_A, Mar 2026
Wonderful experience with chef Nicolas and his wife Yohanna in Brooklyn. We highly recommend the tour and we experienced food from different corners of the world. Hans & Guðrún from Iceland.

Great food spots shared by local chef.

Alan_T, Mar 2026
It was a surprisingly pleasant day for February in New York City and we were all excited for a "taste" of Brooklyn. The tour leaders were prompt and friendly and the food was fantastic! I guess the only ting that I was hoping for was a little more of the "flavor" of the culture of the area. The guides were good at sharing things as we walked with individuals in our group but didn't really take the time to present things about the different eateries to everyone. Don't get me wrong, as a chef and member of the Brooklyn community he knew his stuff, I just wish the presentation was a little more polished. It felt more like them sharing their favorite places to grab a bite than a "tour" of the area.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for joining us. We’re so glad you enjoyed the food and had a great winter day exploring Brooklyn with us. Our tours are intentionally designed to feel like walking the neighborhood with a local chef and discovering favorite spots together. The experience is meant to feel like exploring Brooklyn alongside locals — visiting the places we genuinely love and sharing the food culture that makes the neighborhood so special. Through the food and the stories behind the businesses we visit, we try to highlight the incredible mix of cultures that make Brooklyn such a unique and vibrant place. We truly appreciate your feedback and will keep it in mind as we continue refining the experience. Thank you again for joining us.

Alfred_B, Sep 2025
Great walking tour through Brooklyn neighborhoods with marvelous food along the way. Chef and his wife were excellent guides. If you love great pizza, pierolis, cannolis, papousa , and etc. This tour is for you.

Incredible Food tour

Stephanie_E, Sep 2025
This food tour is incredible. Nicholas and Yoh are so knowledgeable of the culinary world in general and the neighborhood. Such a great way to learn about Brooklyn by walking and eating with the locals. The best food and best people!!!

Intimate tour with lots of hidden gems

Shawn_S, Aug 2025
This tour was the perfect way to explore a sample of the best foods Brooklyn has to offer. Chef Nick and his wife, Johanna, fed us food we would not have found on our own or on Yelp. We did lots of walking and definitely left with full bellies. We even got recommendations for where to go vintage shopping after the tour. Loved the fact that it was just our five family members, with plenty of time to answer all of our questions.

Enjoyed every stop and...

Kim_S, Jul 2025
Enjoyed every stop and meeting Nick. We were stuffed by the end! All the places were cool mom and pop and the selections were so good. I thought there would be more stories about the neighborhood, the places or the food. I think that would make it even better.

Don’t miss this Brooklyn experience

wapshott2, Jul 2025
What a fun afternoon experiencing Brooklyn and all the hidden food gems with a very passionate chef. Nicholas had such an extraordinary background and tremendous love for food and Brooklyn.

A Taste of the Town - An Unforgettable Experience

Kendra_M, Jun 2025
If you’re in Brooklyn and love food, this tour is a must. Every stop felt like a hidden gem, from the upside down pizza to the Michelin-rated pierogis. Our guide, Nick, and his wife, Johanna, were the real highlight—warm, knowledgeable, and clearly connected to the community. They made the history as flavorful as the food. Come hungry and curious—you won’t regret it.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you so much for the kind words, Kendra! We’re so glad you enjoyed the tour and that the food (and stories!) hit the spot. It means a lot that you felt the heart behind it all. We loved having you and hope to eat our way through nyc with you again soon. Warmly, Come Hungry NYC
