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!

Our waitress was beyond friendly, attentive, and congenial. Food and drinks were fantastic. My favorite part of the experience is that our waitress let us hang around after dinner for a while. I was catching up with a friend I only see about once a year so it was nice to be able to take our time and catch up. I also brought and infant and the restaurant was beyond accommodating. All the staff yielded to me when I took him to the bathroom. Did stars for actually having a changing table in such a classy restaurant.
