Booked this as a surprise for my husbands birthday. Wonderful Sunday afternoon, beautiful weather. We were the only ones on the tour so it was like a private food tour. The food was good, we had so much we had to take dessert home!

I ordered these tickets for a friends birthday present and was very pleased with the full experience. This was our first tour and both of us had no real expectations. The food was delicious, the company was great and I loved how we got a bit of history on each restaurant and always a little Italy itself. Overall I had an awesome experience.

Barb Snow was our guide for the evening. Her passion for food and her love for the Cleveland area and it's history made this tour terrific. These characteristics are key to her position and she was on it! She did have a gentleman with her in training. We had a fairly large group and as a previous small business owner, this gentleman who will be leading groups in the future should have been opening doors and intentionally helping our guide in a more "service" role. I worked in high end venues before retiring and that is the only reason I wanted to pass this on as I would want to know that. I realize that he needed to see how she sought out restaurant contacts as we arrived at each location, but he could of been much more hands on. Not throwing this gentleman under the bus but if he will be working with you "It is all about the customer". This did not interfere with the great time we had and had I not been in the service industry almost my entire life I would not have noticed it but had he been engaged in this matter your other customers and myself would have certainly noticed.

I have taken several tours in Cleveland and have thoroughly enjoyed them all. Barbara Snow is a gracious and phenomenal hostess/guide. The food was fantastic as were the restaurant choices. If I had one suggestion....I very much enjoy the quirky neighborhood history accompanying the food. The human history of the neighborhood is perhaps even more important than the food itself. If there is a way to expand on the history and lore of the residents and neighborhood, it would make a fantastic tour phenomenal.

Price a little high for the food

We had a girls day out. It was a beautiful fall day to walk around the neighborhood. Our guide was very friendly and taught us a few things about the area. Even though we got to eat from 2 restaurants, a market and a bakery, I feel the price was kind of high for the food we got. We enjoyed our tour, but probably would not do it again. The tickets for the tour during the summer were a little cheaper, although I'm not sure why.
Tips for responding to 3-star reviews:
  • - Thank the customer for attending and for sharing their feedback.
  • - Don't overreact to minor complaints.

The food was excellent. Was very pleased with the Murray Hill Market. This is a hidden gem in Little Italy. The owners did a great job in preparing a nice variety of foods they have available. Will definitely be going back there. The other restaurants and bakery, La Dolce Vita, Valerio's and Corbo's also provided a great taste of what Little Italy has to offer.

Our food tour took place on a Sunday afternoon in Little Italy. The group ended up being the three members of our family and the tour guide. The guide was very knowledgeable and interacted in a conversational manner. She clearly had a long-standing relationship with the restaurant owners and 2/3 owners sat with us at our table. The servings were meant to feed nothing less than 6 people (even though we expected only a small portion) and the food was hearty and authentic. I highly recommend participating in the Little Italy food tour, as it was an amazing, informational, and a delicious experience.

As a family that grew up in the CLE area we thoroughly enjoyed our Little Italy Food Tour! The guides were so amazing, very friendly as well as knowledgable. The dishes we had at each stop were to die for and the history and stories from all the owners and chefs were something we would not have been able to experience if not for the food tour! I would definitely try out the other tours both in the CLE area as well as in other cities!

I bought this tour for my mom as a Christmas gift. We absolutely LOVED the Little Italy food tour. We made friends with others on the tour and the tour guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The food was delicious and it was great to personally meet each owner of the restaurant. This is a great gift idea and something fun to do with family or friends!
