    I stopped in here for a last minute Sunday breakfast/brunch. I can never seem to make it to a breakfast house early enough. I made it about 15mins before closing. The staff was nice enough to allow me to place an order and the time to eat it. They close at 2PM. I had a typical breakfast combo. 2 eggs, 2 pancakes and 4 pieces of turkey link sausages. Breakfast tasted great ! The pancakes were a little crispy just the way I like it. The atmosphere puts you in the mind of a diner or what we call in Chicago a "truck stop". I thought it was really cool to see all the future Picassos of the world. Lol The walls featured children's attempts of drawing a fox. It was also nice of the owner to come by and chat with me. I do think the restaurant could stand a little upgrading. Otherwise, nice spot.

    Corned beef hash breakfast
    Tiara L.

    I honestly don't know why I don't come here more often! It's so good. The corned beef hash is literally my favorite breakfast item. They make it PERFECT. It's a nice char and the center is moist. Literally the best. The cheese eggs are really good as well. The grits are ok. I think I'm just picky with grits and prefer it made with heavy cream vs water. The biscuit is AMAZING. It's so big but also light and airy and you can taste the butter. It's so GOOD! The service is always amazing, will be going back for lunch soon.

    Pimento cheese burger

    If you love diners and live in or around Avondale, then you need to try this spot. A classic diner with delicious food, I don't know how you could not love Fox. There's always a line for brunch on the weekend but it moves fast. My go-to is the tuna melt. I add bacon and red onion to it and it's delicious - gooey with crunchy bacon and thinly shaved red onion. I've watched them make it from the bar and was appalled by the insane amount of salt and butter, but it's so good I would still get it again. The pimento cheese burger is also excellent: cheesy and with a great sear - they cook it to medium which I would not necessarily ask for but I do like here. Onion rings are delicious. The booths are a fun place to sit at and admire all the hokey decorations. The bar is also a great spot if it's just you and a partner. This place is not large enough for a group bigger than four. Service is great - super friendly and funny. We have a great time every time we come here!

    Very small but good diner! Great and fast service and great food! Good options. Would say 9.3/10 overall

    Good coffee!

    It was a Thursday morning around 9:30 and it was standing room only. In fact we had to wait outside and were the first in line (outside). It took about 25 minutes before we finally got seated, but I will give the owner kudos for continually checking on us from time to time while we waited and letting us know how much longer it would be before we got seated. The wait was worth it. I had biscuits and gravy with a side order of crispy bacon. It was all very satisfying and delicious. The endless coffee hit the spot. The old style diner played older music and made one feel super comfortable. There's bar seating as well as booths and tables inside. There's also a couple of small tables with seating outside, but in Florida's heat and humidity it's nice to sit inside this time of year. 5 stars for great food and exemplary service. Check them out, and get there early!

    Breakfast but the entire menu is available at this time so you can order lunch items.

    Great retro diner in Avondale. When you step inside, it feels like you're thrown back in time as if you're at a NYC or New Orleans diner with friendly staff. You can sit at the countertop in front of the grill. But my favorite part is that they serve the entire menu for breakfast. So you can order chili cheese fries if you wanted to start your day. Heads up: they don't serve alcohol so no mimosas. Highly recommend.

    Two pancake breakfast
    Marie-Carmen K.

    I love a traditional american breakfast but i did not want to go to a regular diner, and that is how we can across this family owned restaurant less than 2 miles from our home. We had a two pancake breakfast and an omellete. The eggs are freshly cracked, the sausage tastes like heaven and does not compare to anything store bought, it tastes homemade! The pancakes had a nice toasty color on the bottom and also you can tell they make the batter every mornig. The biscuit was TO DIE FOR, it is sooooo soft and flavorful. We had it with the sausage gravy and it was a hit. The service was one of the best i have ever had. Very attentive, refilled my coffee as soon as it was half way, refilled our waters often, checked on us all the time and had such a positive energy that made it feel very welcoming and homey. The ambiance reminds me of a cozy home, every person that walked was so happy to be there, the staff love what they do and all the wall decor adds to the history of this restaurant. 10/10 experience!

    Old school diner vibe and food. Sat at the counter. Wait staff knew customers names. Food was as expected. I had the corned beef hash with eggs and rye toast with a side of fruit. Coffee was only so so but that's how I feel about most coffee served in restaurants.

    The French toast plate! Phenomenal!
    Robert M.

    What a fine! We were in the area and stumbled across the Fox restaurant. Ian, the owner happened to be there, I get the feeling he is there every day, and was beyond friendly. Our server,Sarah, provided incredible insight into the menu items. She has worked there for eight years! The food here is some of the best food I have ever had at a breakfast restaurant in my life. You could eat the gravy straight out of the bowl with nothing else it is that good! The French toast is some of the best French toast I've ever had. All of their food is fantastic and you cannot go wrong. The Fox restaurant has a family atmosphere and an old-school diner vibe to it. We will definitely be going back many, many, many times!

Very nice inside dining area that's been updated. Not overly crowded. It was very clean & all staff were attentive & friendly. Tough parking situation. We found it nice to park a block up the street & walk. Such a beautiful & safe neighborhood.

    Absolutely amazing 5 star time at Josephine!…read more I had heard great things about this place and when some co-workers came into town, I knew I wanted to try this spot with them and I'm so glad I did! The restaurant is beautifully set up and a great vibe. We had Caylee as our server and she was so friendly and bubbly! We started off with some drinks and they were all delicious and had a fresh taste. For appetizers, we ordered family style and got the carpaccio, sourdough focaccia, and the 'nduja arancini with a goat cheese crema. The carpaccio and arancini were my favs but all were perfection! We also did some family style for the mains and got caesar salad, rigatoni bolognese, chicken 'nduja, and carrots with whipped ricotta. The rigatoni bolognese was sooo yummy! We saw the bartenders experimenting with drinks and asked which one it was that looked so good - I believe they called it a burrata cocktail or something but it was actually so good! They brought it out to us to try even though it's not on the menu yet, which was so kind. For desserts, we got the olive oil cake and tiramisu. Tiramisu is my all-time favorite dessert so I thought I was going to like that one better but I actually loved the olive oil cake so much. It was my first time having an olive oil cake but both of the desserts were heavenly. We also got to try some of their homemade chocolate that they brought out to us and those were all delicious as well with different flavors. I hope to come back soon for a pasta making class or cocktail making class or just dinner and drinks. This is probably one of my favorite spots in Jacksonville now!

I would give this place a higher review if they DID NOT ALLOW full grown dogs and ignorant people into their restaurant!!!! It was one of my bday dinners and having traveled the world, studied french, and lived in different states, this was exciting to try. I am writing this to get owners and stakeholders attention in this restaurant! STOP LETTING the fact this is FL stop you from having universal standards or HR to allow staff and people be fully comfortable, I would give this place a solid 3-4 star for food as it was delicious. BUT eating this with a thick furred grown dog in the room with it NOT being a guide dog, support animal, or belonging to an owner, be allowed inside! A bald, semi- heavy set caucasian man strolls in with his woman and HUGE dog just to sit at the bar... like no would notice as he is a local it seems... Celebrities in LA or NY barely get exceptions as this, let alone a typical person who obviously does what he pleases and considers no one else while their eating in a "fancy" restaurant. Again it being my bday week and wanting something great, the chef came and said hello which was refreshing and the food does deserve some praise! But why that dog that could not easily sit outside (at the outside dining), while its owner has a drink, is beyond me. I will not suggest or want to eat there again while they allow animals that are not due to real health issues or any sign of a true legal exception. Or dare I say Orsay, look around the world and see which staff member or real dining experience wants any pets let alone a big ass dog in there while they spend hundreds of dollars!!! For an INSIDE experience. Please put a sign to stop pets from inside the facility, its the least you can do for a quality level place... Please Orsay, your chef and staff are great but look at your inside and rules for which you want the world to respect. Look at some of these restaurants and ask would they let a 50+ pounds hair'd dog into a place for the sake of one customer who isn't an owner? 1) La Note https://www.lanoterestaurant.com/ 2) Marche Au Fleurs https://marchemarin.com/ 3) Marseille https://www.marseillenyc.com/ I would not want to keep paying prices for the inside to be semi-tavern like and allow casualness such as this... It could be a great place, but again its seems a management or a lack of issue. Please resolve as if people who come regularly were to see this dog and they DO know the world rules or standards, they would not pay the same for exposure or even allergies.

We ordered a Burnt Ends platter with mac and cheese, and corn nuggets, a Brisket Platter with corn nuggets and beans. We also ordered a large mac for my son and a side of lean brisket. For the wings we ordered the Cajun ranch. Our food started coming out in about 5 minutes. Firstly, I was shocked at the wings. I love wings, but they aren't something I usually order often as I find them just OK. There are only a couple places that I visit specifically for wings. Well, let me tell you, I would make a visit back just for these wings. OMG, the Cajun ranch was simply amazing, really addictive. They were my favorite item. We devoured them. The burnt ends were very good. I appreciate they are big chunks of brisket with no pull pork filler. The flavor was amazing as well and the bits of fat melted in our mouth. The corn nuggets were fine and the Mac N Cheese was quite tasty. We enjoyed the meal so much, were were trying to figure out somewhere for a family lunch the next Sunday and came back again. This time my sister, son and I brought my dad. We of course ordered more wings and burnt ends and brisket with lots of Mac N Cheese. The food really is something special. The wings are absolutely wonderful and the burnt ends are a hit. This is definitely one of my new favorite restaurants and will always be on my list of visits to enjoy when I come back to Jax.

I had not been here in several months and I was surprised by how many open tables they had at the end of the lunch rush. We were greeted upon entering and our party of five was seated at a 6 top in the back of the restaurant.

She promptly took our drink orders and then took our meal orders without missing a beat even when there were modifications or special requests. While we were waiting on our food, drinks did run dry which was the only hiccup of the whole meal. When our food arrived, everything was well prepared and visually appealing. We ordered the following: 1. Half order of chicken and waffles (white meat only) with syrup, butter, etc on the side 2. Cheeseburger without onion and fries 3. Cheeseburger without onion and tomato and fries 4. Club with onion rings 5. Cheesesteak with onion rings My club was a great sandwich and their onion rings are top notch. It was a filling meal for a big eater. My wife always gets the chicken and waffles and likes that you can get it in a half order with your choice of white meat only, dark meat only or chicken tenders. Two of my kids got cheeseburgers and they were dripping with melted cheese (not even sure the 16 yr old tasted his he inhaled it so fast). My other son got a steak and cheese on a sub roll with onion rings and I stole a bite - it was really good. At the end of the meal, you pay your check table-side through the toast app via a QR code on your phone. Or you can pay with a scanner. Also, Lauren was nice enough to give us to go drinks for the road.
