"My bestie, a Boston local, could not wait to bring me to The Red Fox! Having been once before he knew to make a reservation well in advance of my visit and spent the better part of two months talking the place up. To say that I had lofty expectations would have been an understatement. Approaching the unassuming door to what appeared to be an office of some sort had me questioning his sanity, yet I trust him, so we descended the staircase and entered into an entirely different world. The ambiance is something I could only dream for experiencing. The low lighting, crimson decor, and quaint seating arrangements were chef's kiss. Wait, I may have used chef's kiss too soon because I haven't even gotten to the food yet. We got two appetizers in true "treat yo self" fashion: Arancini and Strangolapretti. While the Arancini was probably the best I've ever tasted, the strangolapretti is probably one of the best foods I have ever tasted. Anywhere. Ever. I dream about how delicious it was. We split the lasagna because it was huge and again... perfect! The waitstaff were beyond wonderful. And my favorite thing was the inspired wallpaper in the bathroom. This place is a must try, worth the wait, and if you choose not to go, you're missing out!"

"I loved the concept of this restaurant. Below street level, on commercial street with very small signage. It was difficult to get a reservation around dinner time. Had to reserve a week or so before. The staff were welcoming and very friendly. The restaurant itself was fun and romantic but dark lighting with accents of red light. We ordered the meatballs to start which were average. For entrees we ordered the pesto pasta and the Bolognese. Both were very unpleasant and I could not eat more than one bite. The pasta was extremely hard and the flavor was bland. I would not recommend for food, however a drink at the bar would be fun."

"This is our first time in Boston and we happened to grab a drink at The Red Fox. It completely exceeded our expectations and was so much fun. Abby was fantastic and literally made the best cocktails we’ve ever had. Super good spot for an elevated cocktail experience (just hit Mr Dooleys after)!!"

"Nice, cozy vibe. Good for first dates. Kind server. Fare a bit too salty. Would return and try the lasagna, though. Let’s talk @The Red Fox"

"I really wanted to like this place since it’s so highly recommended, but the experience was disappointing. We had to flag down a server to order, our drinks never came, and after waiting we just had them removed. The pasta was undercooked and chewy with watery sauce, and the meatballs were lukewarm in cold sauce. Overall a terrible experience and not worth returning."
