After years of working Downtown Indianapolis, Executive Chef/Owner Jake Burgess decided to come home and open an establishment that delivered the style of service and quality of food he had become accustomed to. FoxGardin is tucked away on quaint Main Street in Fortville.

Minutes to Geist, Fishers, Klipsch Music Center, and I-69, and only 25-30 from downtown Indy, FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a perfect spot to sneak away, while still being close to everything!

***FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a 21+ establishment. ***

We have been to Foxgardin two other times and have not been disappointed. The fish is fresh and my wife's filet was great. We enjoyed the variety of flavors the chef brings out. The sugar cream pie was excellent as well. We will return again.

We went on a Tuesday night around 8 and it was a very nice, quiet & chill vibe. We started with the bang bang shrimp which were hand breaded, spicy & delicious… I had a lamb burger which was wonderful, and my date had the best damn chicken Parmesan which she was a big fan of, and had to take leftovers home. It was her birthday so they gave her a half baked chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream and a candle which she loved, I had the raspberry cheesecake. Yum. We definitely want to go back and try other stuff, it’s pricey but for true house made food it’s 100% worth it. Not finding many places like this any more where you can tell how quality and fresh everything is and prepared by creative, knowledgeable chefs. Will be going back for sure.
