We pay tribute to the rugged individualism of Pensacola’s unique historic cultural significance, specifically its Spanish influence. Real and super-rustic, the kitchen presents Old World cookery at its roots, with all the layers peeled back. Brother Fox utilizes a live-fire approach to cooking almost everything that we serve, from coal-roasted oysters to Carne Asada for two, served with hot tortillas. Our beautiful outdoor seating sets the stage for a casual meet up with friends for a glass of wine from regions near and far, carafes of Bathtub Gin or Sangrias from the bar. Inside, the cuisine and casually elegant design are the embodiment of a “neighborhood” spot that caters to visitors and residents alike, for special occasions, celebrations, and some of the finest wood-fired cuisine in Pensacola. Imagine food with soul, both exciting and traditional, in a breezy setting, right in the heart of Old East Hill.

We are open daily for Dinner at 5pm

    This was our first Dining experience at Brother Fox. We will not be back…the service was extremely slow and we were actually the first couple dining this evening so it wasn’t busy yet. The food overall was ok but came out cold (after waiting on it for an hour). It was extremely noisy in the main dining area and tables are sat FAR too close together. Not impressed

    Not only was the staff exceptional but the food was outstanding! We were apart of 4 and started a the restaurant bar and then we were brought to the Sister Hen bar - all mixologists and cocktails were amazing! Then we were escorted to our table and ended up trying appetizers. portions are all made for sharing. The special carpaccio was fabulous and the octopus was so good we ordered another. Saw others getting the paella which looked great - and we are going to try that next time. We loved the experience so much we made reservations to go next week - cant wait!

    The food is excellent. The seating was a little tight. Ambience was nice and loved the champagne toast for hubby's birthday. Bathroom was very clean also!

    We had the Thanksgiving special menu and the food was exceptional. The offered a selection of traditional Holliday items including a delicious stuffing that was great. They were out of the prime rib but the turkey and ham were both perfect. The waitress poured water for us but spilled much of it on the table. I was happy to clean up with my napkin and requested another which never came after two requests. We ordered excellent cocktails although it took a long time to arrive to our table. The waitress came to take our food order and I said we never received our cocktails which she said she’d check and asked again what the order was. Then the dinner and cocktails came at the same time. Then there was getting proper utensils as they took away our standard knives and I had to request knives twice after the food arrived. Again the food was great but I honestly felt I’d have been happier if it were self service. I’m not sure I’d go back even with the awesome food as I paying a premium plus tip and the service wasn’t there at all. The service thing is a bummer as it puts me in a stressed mood when I’m supposed to be enjoying a $150 meal. I don’t want to be rude and demanding in a place that’s supposedly offering a quality dining experience as that too causes stress. Ultimately I pay the price for everything. Maybe a one off.

    Thanksgiving Menu. Good was OK but not great as I anticipated for Brother Fox. Parents enjoyed their turkey and ham. Prime rib was just OK. Expensive for portions and sides. Service was very good although we felt rushed. Mains appeared before we finished salads which is unacceptable in our view. Acoustics were loud as restaurant was very full.

    We are a big fan of the head chef Darian having first seen him win on the tv show Chopped. As always we were not disappointed with my Birthday meal! The grilled oysters were amazing and the portion size of the carne asada for 2 was enough for 4! Definitely one of our top favorite restaurants in Pensacola! Wait staff were also wonderful and VERY attentive.
