My husband found Red Barn close so we walked there (we Uber'ed from our resort to the other bar). From the moment we walked in I was wow'ed!! It is a total vibe. All of the decor was fun and so different than any other bar I've been to. Even the bathrooms had their own charm and personality. They had a DJ spinning that night (Saturday). All of the guys working there were so friendly and outgoing. Great service too! I highly recommend visiting when in the area.

But why keep the reason the guys are trying to get in to spend money on.. outside? Don't really understand the bouncers mentality, girls always get right in. Forgot to mention bartenders are some of the rudest most unhappy, unsocial bunch I've ever encountered and you can hear other people hating the experience while you wait for your drinks. Great decor and music though!

The Music is a lot of mariachi music, multiple mariachi songs full blown mariachi style, with extremely loud glass tapping by the bartender with a spoon and a bottle. (If you're into that obnoxious style I guess this is your spot) It just doesn't seem very upscale to me, but the prices are thats for sure. I don't think they use the air conditioner in the summertime either, or maybe just very slightly....

These bars often have a no-frills atmosphere, welcoming regulars and offering a casual environment". With the exception of being shabby, I think the "Desert Fox Bar" meets this definition. It's not fancy, but it's clean--even the bathroom. My friends and I go out to the desert for golf trips, and we usually spend one evening here. The beers are cold, the mixed drinks are strong, and the prices are reasonable. The locals are friendly.

We started with the Burrata with Heirloom Tomato and Beef Carpaccio, both of which were delicious. We also had the Lobster Roll, Zucchini Noodles with Shrimp, and the Grilled Skirt Steak with truffle shoestring potatoes -- the skirt steak was especially good! We also tried a sushi tuna roll, which was another great addition to the table. The drinks were fantastic, and everything came out tasting fresh and well prepared. To top it all off, they brought out a nice little lemon cake for my birthday, which was a really nice touch. Overall, even though it was crowded and loud, we had a great experience. Great service, amazing food and drinks, and a fun Friday night atmosphere. Definitely a good spot for a celebration!

My youngest loved her spaghetti and meatballs and she is usually pretty picky about pasta. I had the butternut squash ravioli and they were rich, creamy, and exactly what I wanted. My wife ordered the miso glazed seabass and she loved it. I stole her bok choy and that made me very happy. The restaurant is really clean with a laid back contemporary vibe and great music. The AC at our first table was blasting cold air right on us and the staff moved us right away with no issue at all. They were also incredibly kind to my youngest whose birthday we were celebrating. They surprised her with her favorite tiramisu and a candle which completely made her night. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. We will definitely be back.
