Food and service was good. The bang bang shrimp was just a bit over cooked but the buffalo chicken wrap was EXCELLENT! Service was good (we sat at the bar) but the music was so loud that you couldn’t talk without shouting. We ate quickly and left because it was so loud and went to another place to kill time before the movie.

I was disappointed with my brunch visit this morning. Having booked a reservation ahead of time, we assumed we would have an adequate table. When we arrived, we were shown to a 2 person high top table with 2 chairs and told a 3rd chair would be pulled up. The table was 15x24 max. Nowhere near big enough for 3 people. Luckily we said this was not sufficient and they were able to give us another table. We then were given a menu and told about the all you can eat brunch menus. The server convinced us that this was the best option after we questioned the process with the menu in front of us. When it came time to order, the server looked confused by the orders we were making. She then looked at our menus again and grabbed the 2/3 menus on our table that were the wrong menus. At that point we explained that we only wanted items from those and did not want the other items. We were told it was too late and that they had already brought our drinks and the whole table needed to participate in all you can eat, so even one of us couldn’t opt out to offset the cost of ordering what we wanted. After all this and finally accepting the situation, I went to sip my drink, someone else’s lips were left behind. It was filthy. The server apologized and brought a new glass, did not remove the old glass. After finishing our food, we were given the full bill and told the tip was already added. The tip added was 30%. This was presented as mandatory. No apology for the situations and no discount for the errors. Very disappointing experience.

The food and dessert were fantastic. We had Chicken Alfredo and chocolate brownie 😋 I would definitely come here again if ever in the area loved it! The waitress was great, and the food came fast. Very nice restaurant! We had a great time there.

Fox on John is always an enjoyable time! They have daily specials and happy hour from 1-7 during the week, so they’re really reasonably priced. It’s what dining out should cost. And the food is great!

Happy Hour Bang Bang shrimp was not as advertised. $15 Pasta dishes were very good. Pre dinner drinks, appetizers, and mains served all at once. We felt rushed. Server was not interested in helping us resolve problem with the Shrimp dish. We had to speak with the Manager. We asked for the Bill and had coffee and dessert elsewhere.

Food was ok. Definitely felt cheap! House wine was good, not something I normally order. Service was ok. Not bad but not great. The look and feel of the restaurant was nice. I did not like the standard table it was with couches so very slouchy and uncomfortable when eating.
