Culturally condensed food tour, I want more & will book again!
Booked a last minute tour (day before) after a weekend of rain while visiting friends in NY. Greg showed up for just us 2 and met us exactly at the spot as indicated, super friendly and easy to talk to from the start.
Greg is very knowledgeable about the area and talked about the different cultural locations. He had us try a mixture of different foods from places I never had (Pakistan, Indonesian, Colombian...).
I'm from Los Angeles where we also have a hotpot of cultures however the difference is in NY we can hit so many different types of food within 5-10 min walking radius where as in LA it'll take a 30min-1hr to drive to type of food you want.
Tour was 2.5hrs and totally worth our time, some food stalls were not open but don't worry, Greg has back ups.

Highly recommend
Amazing food tour with a fantastic tour guide. We booked this food tour on our visit to NYC from the UK and we’re so glad we did. The food trucks were fantastic with such an array of different foods from different cultures that my partner and I would never normally pick back home. Greg told us stories about the city and Queens along the way which was super informative and made the tour even more interesting. There were only 2 of us on the tour which made it even better as we had our own private tour! We would definitely recommend this tour if visiting nyc!

Best food tour we’ve done in NYC
This Queens food tour blew us away. The food was incredible, specific dishes you won’t find anywhere else in the city.
Greg clearly loves this neighborhood and what he does. Every stop came with a story, plus tip after tip on where to come back to and what to order.
Fun, delicious, and we actually learned a ton. Can’t recommend it enough.

Local expert; world class tour
Greg was an incredible guide and made our Queens food tour one of the highlights of our trip. As a local, his knowledge of the neighborhood, its history, and its incredible food scene was unmatched. What really stood out wasn’t just the delicious food—it was the stories behind each stop. We loved learning about the diverse cultures represented by the vendors and hearing how many of these small businesses, especially the street vendors, have built their livelihoods and become such an important part of the community.
Greg was flexible, friendly, and genuinely passionate about sharing Queens with us. You could tell he has deep relationships with the local vendors, which made the experience feel authentic and personal. If you’re looking for more than just a food tour—something that gives you a true appreciation for the people, culture, and history behind the food—I can’t recommend Greg highly enough. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish!

Amazing experience!
My partner and I had a wonderful afternoon touring Jackson Heights with Greg. We stopped at 6 food trucks, learning about the history of Queens and about the vendors along the way. Greg was super fun, knowledgeable, and a bit of a celebrity in Queens. This tour was one of our favorite things we did while in NYC!

5 Stars — The Ultimate Jackson Heights Food Tour
We picked one of the hottest days of the year to do this tour, and it was worth every drop of sweat. This was a well-planned and thoughtful tour from start to finish — our guide Greg took us deep into Jackson Heights, one of the most culturally rich neighborhoods in NYC, and gave us history on the food, the vendors, and the borough at every stop.
Highlights: Tibetan momos that were soft and perfectly steamed, Pakistani halal chicken over rice that was the best I've ever had, and a Colombian buñuelo with soursop filling that was pure delight. The Bangladeshi fuchki with tamarind sauce from Tong — the first fuchki truck in America — was a flavor explosion, paired with hot cha that hit just right on a scorching day. The Mexican cemita was stacked and incredible. We wrapped things up with alfajores at a cozy Uruguayan café covered wall-to-wall in soccer jerseys — the perfect sweet ending.
As a born-and-raised Brooklyn girl, I didn't expect to fall in love with Queens the way I did. Greg's knowledge and passion made every bite feel like a story, and the pacing and stops felt genuinely well thought out. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to actually taste a neighborhood, not just walk through it. Already planning to book another one with Greg in a different neighborhood!

Great tour and food in Jackson Heights! Highly recommend!
The tour guide, Greg, was FANTASTIC, friendly, informative, not too much talk, just the right amount of interesting info about the food, the trucks, the neighborhood, etc. He did not treat us like generic guests. He added a personal touch and took a genuine interest in his visitors. It's like having a mellow, good friend take you around—his enthusiasm for the neighborhood and the food are also genuine and contagious. We plan to book another tour with him in a different neighborhood. Thanks so much.

Fantastic
Great food with a great, knowledgeable host! Tried food we had never tried and in some cases never heard of. I had always wanted to visit and eat my way around Queens on trips to nyc but never knew where to start. The perfect way for visitors to do it.
