    My group of 10 girls celebrating the holidays had an incredible meal and experience at the Red Fox. We had one of the main tables in the bar area, it was a little tight but we knew that going into the reservation! Awesome ambiance… Our server Laurenia went above and beyond to accommodate our group with impeccable service. Brent made all of our drinks and they were delicious. For food we had the following: Apps:Arancini, Caesar Salads, strangolapretti, prosciutto and zeppole Mains: bisteca, chicken parm, vodka pasta, ravioli, and hands down the best lasagna I have ever had. We shared everything and laurenia coursed it out for us! Thanks for a great experience!

    Always a fantastic experience. The food, the vibe and the service are all top in Boston. In addition, we had to add someone to our party and requested a time change. This is a really hard reservation to get so was not expecting the changes could work. The staff could not have been nicer and went out of their way to accommodate. I so appreciate that. Love this place!!

    We recently had the pleasure of dining at Kanu, to celebrate a good friend’s birthday, and it was an excellent experience. The ambiance was warm and inviting with an upscale decor. The food was beautifully presented, showcasing the chef's exceptional skill and attention to detail, and most importantly- delicious! The service was prompt and courteous taking care to address any questions and making us feel valued as guests. I would like to give special recognition to the chef who provided service that went above and beyond. Based on my notes when making the reservation, he took the time to research the sourcing of certain food to ensure specific dietary needs were considered. It's rare to find such a commitment to guest satisfaction and it truly elevated our dining experience. We are already looking forward to a return visit!

    It took a month to get in and it was worth it. I had frequented the pond house when I was young (35 yrs ago) and I had been wanting to get back. It was as good as I remember. Staff got us in earlier than our reservation time, waitstaff were friendly and welcoming and the popovers and jam are the best I’ve had! Definitely worth the visit/experience.
