Had a great dinner at Red Fox! The pasta was delicious and couldn’t go wrong with the vodka or pesto option. We sat at the bar and the bartender Brent was friendly, kind, and made our experience better.

This is one of our favorites, because their homemade pasta and sauces are outstanding. We highly recommend all of them, especially the Mezzi Pacheri al Ragu! Their presentation is unique and interesting, and we have only experienced excellent waitstaff during our many visits. Highly recommend making advanced reservations through OpenTable, as this is a popular restaurant.
