Lady I guess was leaving for the day said Craig would help me. She was kind to bring waters. I just wanted 2 ice cold beers as it's hot out now and days. Was there almost 10 min.

Makes a difference !

I had high hopes for this restaurant when I made a reservation for Valentine's Day, but…read moreunfortunately, the experience fell far below expectations. While I take full responsibility for arriving 15 minutes late, I was shocked at how rudely the hostess--who we later learned was the manager--handled the situation. Rather than a simple acknowledgment of the delay, or improbability of getting a table, she made a point to shame us, emphasizing that accommodating us would be an extra burden for her. This set an uncomfortable tone from the start. When she begrudgingly seated us at a table that had somehow magically become available, she made another unnecessary comment, implying that I should do my part to not make her job so difficult again. My partner was immediately put off and suggested we leave, but I decided to give the restaurant another chance, assuming the manager might just be having a rough night. Unfortunately, things did not improve. The food, best described as uninspired frozen bar fare from the main Duckworth's kitchen, took over 30 minutes to arrive--and even then, it was served before our drinks. When the drinks finally did arrive, they were nothing exceptional. I ordered a French 75, and my partner had a Paloma, only to realize that even the drinks had come from downstairs at Duckworth's. Given the restaurant's supposed reputation, I was surprised that it didn't have its own bar, unlike how things are set up at The Cellar. The only redeeming aspect of our visit was our waitress, who was pleasant and professional. However, what puzzled us the most was that despite the manager's initial reluctance to seat us, nearly half of the restaurant remained empty throughout the evening. With at least three or four servers working in a relatively small space, it was clear that staffing wasn't the issue--so why the hostility? It was hard not to wonder if other potential diners had been similarly turned off by the manager's deplorable attitude and the underwhelming menu. Overall, the experience left a bad taste in our mouths--both literally and figuratively. Between the lackluster food and drinks, and the uncalled-for attitude from management (she is bald and was wearing a dress on the evening of 2/14/25 at 9:30PM-11PM), I cannot recommend this place to anyone looking for a pleasant dining experience.

The seafood tower was fresh, beautifully presented and a great start. The house milk bread was phenomenal. Warm, soft, slightly sweet and one of those things you keep reaching for. I typically don't love truffle fries because the "truffle flavoring" can be overpowering. These were crispy, salty and subtle, with just the right amount of truffle. We also had the charcuterie board and the Cheshire pork belly, which was rich, tender and perfectly caramelized. I split the Prime Angus burger with my sister-in-law and it was cooked perfectly. Juicy, flavorful and exactly what a great burger should be. Great atmosphere and definitely feels like a night out. It is LOUD and parking can be difficult, but neither would keep me from going back.

I could see myself coming back for another date night, meeting up with a friend or even a slightly nicer option for after the mall (they also had tv's at the bar).

That said, once we sat down and started looking through the menu those complaints were silenced. Our overall experience was very good! Even though the bar was somewhat cluttered when we first sat down that was cleared up items put away. After reviewing the menus, we decided on opening with a couple adult beverages. I decided on a Manhattan while my wife decided on a pumpkin spice espresso martini. Both drinks for well crafted and delicious! we ordered a few of their small plates for our late lunch. We went for their bruschetta, Caesar salad, and seared Ahi. The Caesar salad was delicious as was the seared ahi. The bruschetta was not bad however it was somewhat soggy. We decided to order another small plate of seared Ahi as it was so delicious! Overall, it was a good visit. I certainly would like to try it again sometime in the future if possible.

Happy I did, the aesthetics are very modern, warm and welcoming. The staff was very friendly and seemed like a well oiled family, coexisting through life together.

The experience was pleasing with the wine being displayed in top notch Spiegelau wine glasses. It definitely elevated the experience.

We also enjoyed the Australian Lamb Chops, which were tender, perfectly cooked, and complemented by the wild mushroom risotto, grilled asparagus, and rich Bordelaise sauce. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor. We'll definitely be back!

The food was genuinely good -- especially the crab bisque, which was rich, flavorful, and easily the star of my meal. My waiter was kind, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the night. However, something my best friend noticed made the experience feel a bit uneven. The presumed manager made his way around the dining room greeting every table near us. He even congratulated a couple on their anniversary, but he never acknowledged my birthday or stopped by our table at all. He looked over at us several times, so it wasn't a matter of not seeing us -- it just created an awkward contrast, especially since we were there celebrating a special occasion. Overall, the food and service from our waiter were wonderful, and Bentley's has a beautiful atmosphere. I enjoyed my birthday dinner, but the experience would have felt more complete with a bit more warmth and acknowledgment from the management.

I had bookmarked this spot due to its decent Yelp reviews and since it was within walking distance of our stay, and open, we decided to go here. What a great spot! Our server Angela was nice and attentive. We ate and drank inside, which was great for us because my GF didn't want to deal with bugs and 73° outside was too warm for me... We were seated at high top tables near the bar. Pretty cool interior space, lots of wine on display, and one wall was covered with old wine boxes. It wasn't noisy at all and it was nice not having to shout over a booming music. As for the main event, the food and wine: 1) I'm writing this pretty buzzed so my recollection may be hazy, but I got the "Here Comes the Sun" flight and my GF got the "Bubble Me Up, Scotty!" flight. Not only a good value (3x 2oz tasters for about the same price as a glass [6oz] of wine), but all six of the items in our flights were quite good. We ended up getting two more glasses each of our favorites of the three (Lambrusco for the missus, Grüner Veltliner for me). As for food: I got the shrimp cocktail (4.5/5) and my GF got the lamb sliders (also 4.5/5). And we split a Caesar salad with grilled chicken, which oddly enough to say, was the best Caesar salad we've ever had. Perfect dressing-to-lettuce ratio, the dressing was excellent, and the grilled chicken was perfect. And then we got 4 doughnuts for dessert. We are only here for five nights but I'm sure we will be back. 5/5 would definitely recommend.

This was our first visit to Foxcroft. We had reservations for Tuesday at 7:15. The patio was mostly…read morefull but there were about 6 tables open. We were greeted warmly and escorted to a table right away. I chose the bubbly wine flight and the chicken Milanese. My husband chose the rigatoni and a German pilsner. We shared our meals because they were both so flavorful but at the end were still a little hungry and wished there was bread service available to order along with the meals or sides that we could add to our meals for a little extra $. We did notice that on the menu for the burger, you could add a side of fries for $3. Otherwise the appetizer of fries goes for $13. We ended up ordering a slice of the chocolate cake. It's a slightly dense version with ganache and was very good. Overall we were so happy with our food and drink choices and look forward to coming back. The only little disappointment was when I made the reservation, it asked if there was a celebration and I checked the box that it was a birthday celebration. There was never a "happy birthday " wished to us or any mention at all. In no way, do I want or need somebody coming out and singing happy birthday to me but it's always nice when a restaurant will actually wish a person a happy birthday or maybe give a small dessert after the meal. I specifically look for restaurants that do this when choosing where to eat for a special occasion. So will I come here again? Absolutely, it will go into the regular rotation. Will I choose Foxcroft for our birthdays or anniversary? I would probably choose somewhere else where they acknowledge it.
