      Fun, Delicious, and Happy!
      It was just wonderful! The selection of the restaurants, food & drinks provided was amazing! The host, Angee, was very friendly and accommodating, she made sure everybody was having a great time. It was also informative and educational regarding the history of SLO. Just make sure you’re hungry before you go. Each place provides you with generous amounts of food and drink. The bonus was we were given a pretty keep sake of delicious honey caramels and beautiful chocolate candies. We were very impressed with Granada Hotel and we actually went back to the hotel bar right after the tour for another cocktail! Definitely we recommend this tour. FYI, we joined the Mojo Uptown Walking Food tour last May and we ended up staying in uptown for this latest trip. The tour gave us a great prospective of SLO as well.

      Best food tour I've been on
      Best tour host, best food and drinks, great town. We had a blast and were SO FULL at the end of the tour. The walking distance is broken up a lot with the different stops so don't be intimidated. Angee is so fun and engaging with everyone and you can tell the restaurants adore her and love having her tours stop by. Trust me, it makes a difference with the experience.

      What an amazing experience!
      Our tour guide, Angee, was very professional, knowledgeable, personable, and fun. She made our experience delightful! The food and drinks were awesome. The highlight of our tour was the French Toast and drink selection at the Granada Hotel & Bistro. We ended the tour with fantastic chocolates of our choice. We highly recommend this tour for adults of all ages!

      A great tour of SLO!
      Angee was our guide and we had a beautiful day for this. Her warm and sincere feeling for SLO was evident in every word. She spoke and she captivated us with intrigue. The places she took us were unique and opened our eyes into the available culture in SLO. There seemed to be zero time pressure and all the establishments welcomed her warmly, allowing her to tour through as if she owned the place. Angee was very knowledgeable in SLO history and could easily navigate the neighborhood with ease. Be sure to arrive on time with an empty stomach because by the end of the tour your shirt will be tight! The drink and food selections were top tier every step of the way! We tried new things too and we’re quite surprised at the delicacies we might never have tried had we not been introduced to them! We had a fantastic day and hope to arrange a private group so Angee can show us more with her flair for great introductions!

      Great food and a great time!
      Angee is AMAZING! She shares super fun and interesting facts and has awesome relationships with the businesses we visited. The portions were bigger than I expected and we got to meet the owners and tour around the business. It was so much fun! I would recommend this to everyone.

      I highly recommend taking Angee's tour, she is energetic and funny! The downtown tour was filled with so many delicious gems, some more hidden then others, but all will be venues we come back to!

      A great variety of foods ranging from American barbecue to Peruvian. The tour ended with several dessert stops too! Angee, our guide, was great. Not only was she knowledgeable about the food, but also about the history of the area and some of the buildings visited. Highly recommend!

    This was my second tour with Taste of SLO and I’m already planning my third tour! Angee was fabulous helping me plan this tour since I had a large group and everyone was paying individually. Our tour guide, Victoria, was exceptional! She gave us such great information about SLO and truly made everyone feel like they were her best friend.
    Let’s talk about the food and drinks. WOW!! We went to 5 stops on our tour, all of which I haven’t been to before (and I’m a long time local). I love that each stop on the tour is hand picked and every place has such a moving back story. They are all local businesses who within themselves support other small town local businesses. It’s a win win for everyone! We are looking forward to the new tour in 2022!!!

    This food tour was AWESOME! We met so many friendly people, had some great food and enjoyed learning about the area and the places we visited on the Motown tour. Angie is so good at what she does, and she is training many other tour guides to be as welcoming and knowledgeable as she is.

    I would recommend this tour for anyone passing through town, or locals that may not know about the hidden gems in their area. We visit this coast every January and will definitely be doing another tour next year!

    Thank you Angie!!

    The fiancé and I just left and OMG!! We had the best group ever!! This is such a when strangers become friends type or deal. Story telling, food telling, the excitement and nervousness of what’s next are all wrapped in this tour..

    I love any small business that supports other small business and shares history about the restaurant location, culture creating the dish, and dish itself.

    A highly recommended activity for locals and visiting folks let me tell you!

    We were cramming as much "good stuff" into our five day enjoyment of the Central California coast. Every day we walked the coastline, so we loved the whole idea of walking and dining at the same time. Our guide, Angee, put us all at ease and made getting acquainted with the other guests on the tour so easy. We would never have visited SLO just to dine, but look forward to returning because we learned a bit of the history of each restaurant, about the owners and why/how they started their venture, their passions. We felt we were a part of something, its history and its people, not just diners. Can't wait to do it again!

    I am a North County local that fully enjoyed the Mojo walking tour! As someone that thought she know SLO, I was thrilled to go to five amazing stops that I had never been to before. The walking tour was both educational and a blast. We had incredible food and drinks at every stop, and Victoria was phenomenal. Her energy was contagious and her knowledge of the restaurants we visited and stops along the way got me excited to learn more about SLO. Everyone on the tour was great to talk to, and I made some really great connections. I would definitely recommend this tour to locals, visitors, and especially anyone that recently moved to the area.

    Must Visit from the Tour: SLO Provisions, 1865 Crafthouse, Papa Thai

    What a great way to see this unique and special city and sample/experience so many different styles of food. I had a blast hearing about the local restaurants, the local products and hearing the stories of the people that make small towns like SLO (and the mojo tour) so wonderful and important to our melting pot of a country. The tour definitely brings to life the stores of the owners, their food and the community for us all to enjoy. Huell Howser would have been proud to walk with our group and share in this time as well 🤗
    And yes come hungry, and you will leave extremely happy!

    This tour was selected for us as part of a holiday package and we couldn’t have enjoyed it more! A great selection of eateries who offered delicious tastings of food and drinks that made us want to come back. Every visit was extremely well organised and we were made welcome at each venue. Tasting portions were substantial and we definitely didn’t need dinner afterwards! A huge thank you to our guide Victoria who made the whole experience both fun and informative. Highly reccomend!

    Wonderful, Wonderful, Wonderful!!!! We just went on the Taste of SLO MOJO tour. This is our second walking tour with Taste of SLO. We did the downtown tour a year ago. I did not think it could be better than the first but it was.

    Angee is an incredible tour guide - both in terms of the food, the restaurants and the area. She explained things and made the entire tour a joy. Angee made sure everyone was involved and we all had a great time. By the end, it was like we were all old friends.

    We can’t say enough about Angee and Taste of SLO. We HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who likes food and walking.
