Come hungry, because on our Uptown Dallas tours we serve up generous tasting plates in our favorite casual local restaurants. We dine on authentic Tex-Mex, neighborhood specialty dishes and cocktails, and mouthwatering desserts. With over 15 different bites and sips our tours are enough for lunch! In addition to our sit down restaurant tastings and entertaining Dallas commentary some of our tours also feature several historic attractions unique to Uptown such as the McKinney Avenue antique trolleys, and the 1880's Victorian homes of Dallas' oldest surviving neighborhood. Uptown Dallas is just one mile north of downtown Dallas, minutes from most hotels and convention center. We specialize in public tours and private group events. Tours often sell out, advance purchase required. « less

Our hospital faculty women's group had a great time yesterday! (May 18) Everything went very smoothly, and everyone was thrilled to discover many aspects of Uptown/State Thomas they never knew about. The tour guides were wonderful, super-friendly and informative! Joanne

Went on the 2.5 hour tour of Uptown Dallas on Saturday, May 18th. Zach was our guide and did a phenomenal job of engaging a rather challenging crowd. He was fun and light hearted while keeping us on task and on the move. We visited 4 different restaurants similar to a progressive dinner. Each restaurant offered plenty of food (I... More

What a fun tour! The food was fantastic, the guide was informative, enthusiastic and fun! Hope you get Zach when you book this tour! Three and a half hours flew by and we got to see places and eat at restaurants we never would have found. Can't wait to do it again soon!

I traveled to Dallas by myself for a conference, and was lucky to have found out about these food tours before I went. It was a great way to try restaurants I wouldn't have had a chance to go to otherwise. Our tour guide, Vanessa was wonderful. Very personable and makes sure that everyone is enjoying themselves. I enjoyed the... More

I shared a private (and slightly customized) tour with a group of female attorneys in town for a conference. Vanessa, our tour guide, was a blast - extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic and personable! We visited several restaurants where we were treated to diverse tastings (the portions were very generous), walked through some lovely neighbourhoods and enjoyed a short ride on the... More

We were lucky enough to have a private tour on the particular day we signed up for the food tour (a Friday afternoon). Our tour guide was Jim, and he was very knowledgable. We asked all kinds of questions about the history of Dallas and the area and he knew the large majority of them, which was impressive. He was... More

A great activity for your visiting guests, but arrive hungry! Every bite was unique and delicious. Jim, our guide, did a fantastic job. Not only did he provide information about our restaurant visits and food, but he had a wealth of information about the area. He was also able to give our group many recommendations for Uptown and Downtown "can't... More
