We were looking forward to our experience as I remember a very different Red Fox Inn from my childhood. The building and ambiance are beautiful, but the Surf and Turf was terrible and, aside from the oysters Rockefeller, everything was mediocre. Our bill for two people was just under $800 (excluding tip). I would expect fine dining in comfortable seating for such a bill. I support your restaurant, but the menu must be revamped. Far too expensive for little value.

Food is always delicious and the service is spot on. I feel that for what you get it's over priced. $580.00 plus Tip for 2 people 3 course dinner with wine pairing.

The seasonal menu was outstanding. We had the scallops one night and lamb another when our existing reservations elsewhere were cancelled due to a water issue. Our favorite was the bibb lettuce salad with pear and nuts. The chocolate dessert was not too much at the end of four courses. Highly recommend!!!

Ambience and setting is very nice for a very nice date night. Service was okay. Received our first course before being served our drink orders. First course of a two-course prepaid meal was almost finished before our wine and drink got to the table. Restaurant was not busy at all. Food was okay but everything we ate was overly sweet (duck and halibut). Prices were high for drinks that were okay.

Incredible!!! We tried the four course tasting menu and it was so delicious, fresh, original, top notch cuisine. Service was absolutely on par. The wine pairing was very good. Prices are a little high but compared to other local options, this place is well worth splurging on. A++++

Dinner for Four (two couples) at the Tavern! 5-stars thanks to a prefect meal presented to us by Patrick. Due to the price of the "5 course" Game and Seafood dinner I was fully expecting to be underwhelmed. However, a few things came together to make it worthy of 5 starts. First we were seated in an a more intimate room. At first we thought the fireplace room might be more desirable but they were loud (children etc). Second and most importantly, our server, Patrick knocked it out of the park. Conversation, pacing, attentiveness, delivery...everything. And yes, the Chef also prepared everything to perfection. Venison, short ribs, lobster...etc. While we won't be back...we were very pleased to have dined here.
