We went for a pub / lively vibe for drinks, and the prices are great but the atmosphere was very loud and lots of people bumping into you, long waits for bathroom and over all a mixed crowd that felt kind of off. We had a girl dancing on the bench with a videographer filming her with bright camera lights on and off all night at the table beside us and they kept asking us to move out of the way to “get the shot” Wasn’t exactly what we expected but made the best of it, the late night specials for drinks are good priced and the waitress helping our table was lovely and very apologetic about the waits, forgotten drinks and all the rest. Not sure I’d return due to the atmosphere but team working there was very kind and enough to make me debate going back during the day for their brunch / lunch option

It was our first time at Fox on John and it was absolutely amazing! The drinks were fantastic and food was even better! Lauren was our server and was absolutely a delight. She was so sweet and attentive to us. Music was a bit loud but understandable since it was a Friday night going into St. Patty’s weekend. DJ was AMAZING!!! Would highly recommend coming here!

This place was chaos. We waited 20 minutes to get in with a reservation and were led to “our table” but never sat. Completely ignored by all the staff. We ended up leaving because we had enough. So loud and the patrons were so rude. Never again

Good was ok but mains were delivered seconds after appetizers which was not ok. They did credit us for the apps however. It was VERY loud in there between the pumping music and some boisterous patrons. It’s great for younger people, but not for us.

Great experience! We started with the margarita tower, perfect and not watered down. For apps, bangbang shrimp and the bruschetta, great portion size and taste great. For dinner, we shared the steak platter, 10/10. The service is quick. The staff are friendly and accommodating. No complaints
