Great food. Two different deserts at the end were good but a little much. If rain is in the forecast you might want to cancel and rebook. Valentine’s Day was thunder, lightning and very wet, flooded streets, etc. A tip for the guide: If you have a large group, present somewhere where it is quiet. Four of the five stops were lots of people and loud music. Black’s bbq was not a great choice at 1:30 in Deep Ellum. No tables, hundreds of people, but the Pecan pie was good.

Terina was an excellent tour guide. Very personable and knowledgeable about the area of Deep Ellum, the restaurants, and the food we tasted. We had a wonderful time and will recommend this tour and Terina to our family and friends.
