    We went to Red Fox for NYE - food was excellent but reservation and seating management was chaotic at best. Was seated an hour after our actual reservation.

    What a disaster. New Years Eve fixed price meal took 3 hours without dinner. These clowns were obviously not ready for prime time. F- for Red Fox . Will never go back.

    We had an awesome New Year's dinner! Everything was super - the service, the food and the atmosphere. We loved every dish but especially the zeppole, endive salad, short ribs cappelietti and the branzino. Chef's kiss for everything! Thank you to the Red Fox staff for a fun evening. We will be back!!!!

    The food and drinks were good as was the overall atmosphere. The service was great as well, the server was very attentive and knowledgeable. The tables are very close together, so we could hear the conversations from the tables next to us, and viceversa. That ruined the mood of an otherwise good experience.

    Cool vibe but the worst rigatoni alla vodka I’ve ever eaten. It was tasteless and undercooked (not as in al dente either). Go for drinks and apps maybe but skip the food!

    Good time. Bespoke bar/restaurant. We sat at the bar and it has a lot of cachet. Appetizers were good. Main courses were ordinary… I enjoyed it, but I’m not sure I would go for more than a drink!
