Overview

Astoria is one of the most multicultural neighborhoods in New York City, and on this tour you’ll literally eat your way around the world in just a few blocks.

Instead of big restaurants or tourist spots, this experience focuses on small, local, and family-run businesses that locals actually love. Each stop represents a different culture that has shaped Astoria’s food scene. From Colombian bakeries and Georgian dumplings to Taiwanese street food, Greek markets, Indian snacks, and classic NYC Italian pastries.

This is a relaxed, small-group walking tour where we eat, explore, chat, and learn as we go. Expect a mix of sweet and savory bites with enough tastings to feel like a full lunch.

You’ll leave with a list of neighborhood favorites, new food discoveries, and a deeper understanding of why Astoria is considered one of the best food neighborhoods in NYC.

Come hungry, wear comfy shoes, and get ready for a fun and flavorful neighborhood adventure.
