Tour guide was fabulous with some very interesting stories about the neighborhood (Nova) and restaurants we toured. He was quite knowledgeable. This made the experience really worth while. The food and alcohol experience was unique and fun too.

The best food tour for foodies in D.C. Andrew was spot on with the best dishes/drinks at each spot and we loved how he threw in bits of D.C. history along the way. If you're an adventurous eater and love local hot spots, this is definitely the tour for you. We never felt rushed and were able to enjoy everything and have great conversations with Andrew. Thank you Andrew! We're definitely recommending this tour to our friends and families.

Great food & beverage tour! Highly recommend for a fun way to spend a few hours off the beaten track of DC tourism. Even a tour locals can enjoy…take a few friends and it would be a blast.

This is a tour for foodie fans! Liam our guide was so knowledgeable about the area, history, food & cocktails! Unique hidden gems & flavors. Beer, ciders, spirits…he had us taste them all. And, lots of tips on other city best eats, service, chefs, awards…Liam is so knowledgeable on the DC food scene and how it has evolved. Highly recommend this unique DC experience!

Great guide, Liam, who was very knowledgeable about the little known history of the area. Thankfully we didn’t go to touristy spots. Highly recommend for true foodies looking for new spots!

This was an absolutely spectacular tour. Liam and Andrew were so incredibly knowledgeable about Washington, the neighborhoods, food and drink and were entertaining as all get out. I would highly recommend this tour to both visitors and residence. I've lived in the area all my adult life and saw the city from a new light. Thank you Liam and Andrew. I would give you more stars if I could!

My friends and I had the most delightful experience exploring the culinary wonders of D.C. with Unscripted. Our tour guides, Liam and Andrew, were not only incredibly knowledgeable but also brimming with genuine enthusiasm for the city. They took us on a carefully curated journey, introducing us to both well-known eateries and hidden gems off the beaten path, revealing a side of D.C. we had yet to encounter despite our frequent visits from nearby Maryland. The short strolls between each restaurant were a pleasure in themselves, enriched by Liam and Andrew's captivating storytelling about the city's history and vibrant neighborhoods. Unlike typical scripted tours, they adeptly tailored the experience to our interests, fostering engaging conversations that made us feel like we were simply exploring the city with old friends. I must also mention that Guided Tours of DC, the parent company of Unscripted, offers an array of fascinating tours throughout the capital. After such a wonderful culinary adventure, I am genuinely looking forward to embarking on another journey with them. In conclusion, Unscripted's food tour led by the charming Liam and Andrew offers an authentic and captivating way to delve into the heart of D.C.'s culinary and cultural scene. It's an experience that will leave you with cherished memories and a deeper appreciation for this extraordinary city.
