    The ambiance was perfect for a romantic date, just like the pictures. The food was average, but the service was decent. I would recommend this place.

    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!

    Wonderful dinner! Sat in a booth in the bar. Great service! Meatballs were really good. Carbonara was very good. Pass on the pistachio martini from the dessert menu-not very good. However the tiramisu was nice. Will definitely be back!

    Food and ambiance was great. Only downside was being asked to wrap it up an hour into our meal. We sat at the bar and we were told the next reservation had arrived. We were further along with our dinner than other guests so we were asked if we could pay and wrap it up. We were caught off guard and obliged but then noticed no one was waiting and the restaurant was pretty much empty (it was a Wednesday). We knew our reservation had a time limit, but there were other guest there for much longer than us. They had sat the party they said was waiting at another table and started to serve them, in the mean time other parties at the bar had left. When we asked if we could stay and get desert the hostess was incredibly rude and made us feel extremely uncomfortable. We were there to celebrate my husbands birthday, so this left me rather upset. While we enjoyed our meal and the bartender, unlikely we will be back.

    We had seats at the bar and our bartender Jeremy was extremely attentive, making excellent cocktail and food recommendations! I was excited to try The Red Fox and can happily report that it did not disappoint! I will definitely be back to try other menu items in the future!

    Brett made us some custom cocktails that really elevated the experience. Carbonara was the best in the north end
