How Taste of Gaslamp Works
Your ticket is your passport to come down to the Gaslamp Quarter and sample menu specialties from more than 20 of our favorite locations per day. At "Will-call," you can pick up your walking maps, wristbands and an event survey. From there you can visit the locations that interest you in any order you choose. There are a few locations that are only open to patrons 21 and up but the event is suitable for everyone.
(Small children may not have the patience for the walking and waiting in line but if you feel comfortable you may bring them.)
You must buy a ticket for each guest and sharing is not permitted!
Vegetarians may not find adequate sampling opportunities or ingredients lists.
People with food allergies must participate at their own risk.
