Wonderful Experience - Came into town to celebrate my birthday and did not want to fight the big crowds. Found this on the site and so glad I did. It was worth the cost and would sign up to do it every visit! The host was genuine, sincere, and took pride in everything he was presenting. Having a live musician added to the wonderful atmosphere that we were welcomed into. Every course was just as delicious as the last. With family style seating, we were able to meet and visit with people outside of the state as well as the country that we became great friends with. I would highly recommend this, not only for tourist, but also for locals as we will definitely be booking this again

shrimp boil - The shrimp boil was amazing. It was going to rain that night so we had the shrimp boil in the guide's house. The food was terrific. We had appetizers, main course, and dessert. There was more food than you could eat. It was all prepared in his kitchen and came out steaming hot. I would highly recommend this tour.

Feeling the Love - Great food from scratch with locally-sourced, seasonal ingredients. The music was by local duo keeping the Storyville tradition alive. That was special because you don't come across it often. Mister Gregory even set up a ramp to get my mom up the front steps in her wheelchair. Overall, these are people who clearly love their city and their traditions and take pride in sharing with visitors.

Great night out - The food was absolutely delicious and it was nice to have a few small items to start off with that I'd never had before. Gregory was super friendly and had great stories to tell. The band was also really good too

Not worth $100+ pp - The host was really nice. However, 15 shirimp, 3 pieces of sausage, 2 stuffed small store bought crab, & 2 small but tasty dessert for is not a boil. The live music was 2 people. 1 was playing guitar and the other a Tube-tar or Tubear (Folk Music). The bartender & drinks next door where the best part, and they were NOT apart of the activity. Don't waste your money.
