Found it -- it's The Lost Fox in Ashburn! Here's a short positive review: A Gem in Ashburn -- The Lost Fox Delivers Every Time The Lost Fox is hands down one of the best spots in Ashburn. The cozy atmosphere, stone hearth, and warm decor make it the perfect place for a date night, a special occasion, or just a great evening out. The food is outstanding. The crab dip, the housemade pasta, and the burger are all incredible -- clearly made with real care and quality ingredients. The cocktails are equally impressive and keep pace with the food perfectly. The variety of seating -- dining room, lounge, patio, rooftop, and fire-pit areas -- means there's a perfect spot for any vibe, whether you want something intimate and quiet or lively with live music on the weekends. Service was warm and attentive, and the whole experience felt genuinely special without being stuffy. This place has become my go-to recommendation for anyone visiting the area. Don't sleep on The Lost Fox -- it's a true Ashburn treasure. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

Located in One Loudoun on the second floor, the Lost Fox is for adults only. Reservations fill up fast and can be made on Open Table. First, let me say that the ambiance is so calming! It projects an English modern cabin vibe, but with a touch on whimsy (see mustache coat hangers on booths!). The fireplace is centrally located and gives off an essence of coziness. Complimenting the ambiance, the service was great! The server was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, making great recommendations. We came for brunch and ordered the breakfast burger and pork belly breakfast sandwich. We also split the avocado toast as a starter (we were starving!). The avocado toast was perfectly prepared - toast was cripsy on the outside and chewy and thick on the inside. Ample smattering of smashed avocado with the fixin's. The burger was very good and my friend said they would totally order it again. The pork belly breakfast sandwich held together perfectly despite the inside being heavy. Pork belly remained perfectly crunchy and it had a heavy helping of melted cheese that was not overpowering. Brunch was amazing and we want to go back and experience the patio when it's warmer and also some live music! Such a great vibe and good food! read more

Unique decor and fast and friendly service. All things that describe the lost fox. They had live music at a volume that wasn't overpowering. The food came quick and it all tasted great! They were able to make several accommodations to meet my parties needs. read more

It is a fun place especially if you like dancing. 1. Well it is a crowded and loud place where you can dance and have a great time. 2. Bar area is like any other and their mixed drinks are that of similar establishments. You don't come here for an exceptional mixology talents. 3. Food: not good. However, there's a decent restaurant in the building attached to it. 4. DANCE: this deserves its own category and it is a dance place. Cool thing is that you can have a quieter but dancing experience on the patio/balcony and loud music indoors by the DJ. You can also have a Different music playing in the area where one can smoke. Problem is that's where people smoke! But I do like the variety of having different music playing in different areas of the same establishment, so you can enjoy all types of music without changing the venue. All in all, a great spot for dancing. But not a great spot for eating. read more

Loved the seating area, our server was very accommodating. When we were first seated, there was a very loud customer and our server kindly moved us over to a quiet spot. Food was tasty and satisfying, quite filling as well. I would come visit again! read more

Date Night, finally :) at One Loudoun, and I wanted to try the Lost Fox for the rooftop vibe. The view overlooks the downtown family area making it an ideal spot. Inside, the decor was cute with fox theming everywhere. The drink menu awesome having a soft leather cover and variety of drinks and foods I would gravitate towards. I picked the Pear Martini as it was a favorite of mine in many places. My partner selected the specialty Mule made with bold rock cider. Even though we made out selections quickly, getting the bartender's attention in our section was a obstacle. He seemed more focused on the music, dancing, staring at the patrons, than wanting to take our order. After several attempts to place our order, we finally caught his attention, but the service continued to disappoint. He mistakenly served my partner's drink to a couple who had just arrived, and the whole situation felt like a joke to him. The couple apologized to us, even though they did nothing wrong with the bartender saying "why would you even tell him" and the man of that party stating back to the bartender "Because I'm honest". Huge disappointment the way the bartender acted throughout. When my drink finally arrived, it was pre-mixed and not enjoyable at all, leaving me feeling like I wasted $16. Which I did, as I left 80% of it on the bartop as we walked out of the restaurant once my partner finished his drink. While the ambiance and live music had potential, the inattentive bartender really ruined the whole experience. If you're looking for a nice date night- I'd recommend exploring other options that prioritize customer service over a club-like atmosphere. read more

Was not expecting to find one of my favorite burgers at this spot. It's the perfect combo of juicy, crispy, and gooey. The bun and sauce are perfection. We also absolutely loved the crab dip which had large piece of crab. Pan seared scallops were good as well but the burger stole the show. This place is great for a date night and is super cozy or even a great place to catch a game (which we did). Service was also great and super quick. read more

Honestly the Lost Fox is an absolute blast! This restaurant always goes above and beyond for holidays. The decor inside and the seasonal specials are always a fun touch! On the weekends they have a DJ and boy does that draw a crowd! Stop by for fun on a Friday Night or come to just enjoy the cozy heated patio/fire place. The Lost Fox offers an impressive menu, friendly staff, and is for patrons 21+! read more

TL;DR: Delicious food. Great atmosphere. Food (5/5): Everything was packed with flavor. The burger was delicious, and the pasta was excellent. The sliders were tasty but very small, so if you're really hungry, it's better to go with something more filling. Ambiance (5/5): We sat by the fire on the rooftop, overlooking the street. The view was beautiful and added a lot to the experience. It can get a bit loud depending on nearby groups. If you're seated by the fire, be careful with the small end tables they use for food. They tip easily and aren't very stable. Service (5/5): Our waitress was friendly and gave great recommendations. We ended up ordering more than I took photos of, mostly because the lighting wasn't ideal. Everything she suggested was excellent. read more

I went to do a pick up order-- I asked them for a Caesar salad with dressing on the side. First, the Caesar salad wasn't on my bill so I had to wait longer for my order. When I picked it up, the dressing was on the salad so I asked them if they can make it on the side. The Caesar salad came back with nothing on it basically. I paid $14 for a bunch of lettuce and that's about it. I wanna ask for a refund, but I'm too lazy to call and I got attitude from the hostess about it. Pretty disappointed because it's pricey. To add: I think they gave me a side of mayo instead of Caesar dressing. read more

This has become our new favorite spot. The ambiance is dim lit and comfortable. The service is amazing, we had quick and helpful service both times. The food was delicious, a good amount for the cost, and the espresso martini is the best I've had in a very long time. Definitely will be back and I highly recommend it for a date night! read more

The Lost Fox was a pleasant surprise from what I expected. Located in One London, The Lost Fox is a bar, restaurant and lounge all in one. The atmosphere was diverse; the bar section was a bit louder & energetic, and the sit-down restaurant area felt like an inn or cabin. Whether you're looking for a drink or dinner with some friends the atmosphere at The Lost Fox is a great place. read more

I think this place is great for a date night or special occasions. The ambiance in the dining room is dark and cozy. I don't come here often, but on the last trip I ordered the hangar steak with shallot butter, and it was one of the best steaks I had in while. The service was on point as well. The one thing that sets the Lost Fox apart from other restaurants is when you make reservations online and indicate which occasion you are celebrating, they do a great job acknowledging that occasion when you check in. They also try to make the night special. For example, for my wife's birthday dinner, we received a complimentary dessert. When we went for our anniversary a few years back, they offered us a complimentary bottle of champagne. Who else does that?! read more

Was here for work for a month and felt at home instantly, the staff is amazing and the food even better! Kept coming back and would come back on a leisure trip just to come here again, perfect mix of relaxed lounge and "club" vibe, 20 out of 10! read more

My wife and I ate there on 5/25/2025. We both had the same entre. We started with the deviled eggs. They were creamy, but also had a little crunch. Delicious. The Mac and Cheese was pretty good. Not as creamy as I would have liked. It definitely lacked salt. It was both crunchy and tender. I can't remember what the topping was, but it added a nice texture contrast to the pasta, cheese. The hideaway burger was very tasty, there were many different flavors that worked well together. Delicious. The shoe string fries were average. They definitely lacked salt. Overall a very tasty meal. We will be back. read more

This place's concept is probably a new American,which is very evolving and exciting in some cases.. nope, not this one. Personnel is trained to be attentive, place is stylish and very loud. Now to negative. I ordered habanero chicken thighs with beets and potatoes. Description didn't mention that beets and potatoes are mixed with mayo. But when server discussed dish,I mentioned that I don't want dairy in my dish. Besides that,thighs were burnt and not juicy. Flavors of chicken were interesting,a little spicy and sweet ,but burning chicken killed that dish. My friend ordered grilled Roman artichoke entree for 26 dollars,she asked 2 times server if this is real artichoke,seasonal,fresh and not from can. Answer was definitely YES. When my friend tried it,she asked why it's slimy and had marinated taste? Only after 2 consultations with kitchen server admitted this is canned artichoke. So,not only they are lying stating this is Roman artichoke,but they selling for 26 dollars something from can. Absolutely disgusting, we didn't call management,because we had only 1 hour or so and had something important to discuss. I added 1 star because food had some potential in theory. But concept is unfair and execution ( burned down chicken) ruined everything. I don't think I will be back anytime soon. read more

Came here today for dinner with a friend after almost a year from previous not so good experiences, but was pleasantly surprised by Service today.

Wonderful place for lunch. We got the baby carrots and fish dip appetizers and they were great to start with. Fresh unique recipes to excite the palette before your meal.

It was just okay. It was nothing to tell your friends about. The place was okay. Nicely decorated and built out, but the food was disappointing. Service was good, but not exceptional. The waiter needed to schmooze more and talk about the food and the things he likes. We heard good things about it and hoped it was better, but it's not worth coming back. read more

Cozy vibes and a great spot to unwind! Had a laid-back meal at The Lost Fox. Shaved Ribeye French Dip, which was juicy ribeye piled onto a soft roll with melty cheese and a side of rich au jus. The Hideaway Burger - Juicy patty, perfectly toasted bun, and all the right toppings--definitely one to order again! According to my husband, one of the best burgers he's ever had.

The Lost Fox is a lovely location for shared small plates and fun drinks. They have a great selection of both, and are a great place to start or finish your night, with a fun upstairs outdoor balcony perfect for people watching and relishing in the weather. If that's not for you, the cozy cute indoors are just what the doctor ordered, and the staff is incredibly friendly and prompt. Food wise, the Mac and cheese was a real pleasure due to its layered potato's baked into the top adding a texture that complimented the creamy pasta in an unexpected way. I'd definitely go back just for this dish. read more

We thought this place was great! Pricey, but great! At first we walked into the wrong business, the entrance to this one is on the side, by the glass door, under the arrow shaped like a fox at the top. We checked in on the first level and walked upstairs, (an elevator is also available) we made reservations online and were seated right away. The place had a very sophisticated vibe and we were seated next to a fireplace, which made the room a little too warm, but it was still nice. It did start to feel a little crowded once more people arrived and the tables filled up. We ordered drinks which came out quick and were very tasty. They also left a large water glass on the table for refills. We had the charcuterie board as an appetizer, that we probably could have done without. My meal was the Trotolle and it was delicious!!!! Highly recommended!! Others at the table all got steak and only one had to be sent back to cook a little longer, but everyone enjoyed their entree. We also ordered the pumpkin pie and chocolate mousse, both really good and silky! Like I mentioned earlier this place is pricey, so it won't be a regular place to visit for us, but I highly recommend it for a special date night. read more

Went there with some close friends last night. The staff seemed extremely friendly and due to it being a Monday night, we were seated relatively quickly. The place is super dark so be aware of that. The Service was mediocre. The food tasted really good, however, it just wasn't hot. I'm thinking it probably sat for a while before it was actually served to us, which was a little disappointing. If the place was a little brighter and we didn't have to use our phones to see the menu and if the food temperature was warmer, I might consider coming back. But for the prices, it's just not worth it. read more

heard this spot had the best burger in nova, i don't agree but it was pretty good. cool spot but kinda expensive

It was a Friday evening at Lost Fox at 6 pm. Service was great but the ambiance was horrible. The level of noise in the small area of tables was completely awful. Hit decibels that hurt my ears rendering having a nice meal with family and friends unbearable. Why isn't there noise baffles installed? At spending over $300, you would think you could enjoy your meal. Food was just ok. Nothing special. I will not be going back there. read more

The Lost Fox - Let's go!!! - New American Near Me - Ashburn, Virginia

Online ordered the Hideaway Burger and Adobo Wings , big mistake having had a great interpretation from reviews on here. Came in a timely manner for pickup, both items cold, bland, and looked overly dull. Burger was basically an over glorified Big Mac (their in-house sauce literally made it taste like a Big Mac), seeded bun tasted funny and patties thin as paper. Fries were as sad as my measurable disappointment, just cold and soggy thin little cuts, felt like I was forcing myself to enjoy the side I paid for. Pictures on their ordering site are deceitful, having anticipated a fair amount of wings/or at least decent girth but nope... paid 16 bucks for 6 measly small wings, very filling and appetizing... the sauce the wings are tossed in aren't anything worth trying. Overall, the food wasn't it, will say the carry out option was fast and reliable as they got me in and out when arriving. If you're somehow stuck having to go here (which I pray you see this in time) side with the burger over the wings but honestly both aren't worth the price margin this place is taxing! Wouldn't come here again even to try something different, cause messing up traditional burgers and wings FOR AN AMERICAN BAR FOOD LOCATION is ridiculous. read more

Our server, Noah, is so great. Amazing service and quick refills. Super conversational and made the experience that much better !!! Definitely go there read more

The party last night was amazing! The ambience was fantastic, and the service was top-notch. Huge shoutout to Norma for hosting--she was incredible and made the whole experience even better. We'll definitely be coming back soon! read more

We went here for the first time yesterday. They open at 4. It has a speak easy vibe as there is no sign outside that says, "The Lost Fox" that I could find. The hostess greeted us inside the door. There were stairs to go up but also an elevator. We opted for the elevator. There was something wrong with it but we got up there! It was kind of spooky and added to the experience! The interior is dark like you have gone back in time with a hunt club vibe. The room had a fireplace going with a sofa and chairs facing it amidst tables and booths. The hallway to the bathrooms are lined with historical photos and interesting art. We had the kale salad which I liked very much. It could have used more ingredients but it was good. I also had the gnocchi which was yummy. Perfectly el dente with a lovely cheese sauce and topped with a generous portion of Parmesan. My sister had a cheeseburger and hand cut fries. Very good. Perfectly cooked! read more

I've heard so many things about this place and when in the area with a coworker we stopped in for the evening to enjoy drinks and dinner. We sat at the bar with Kaitlin, who was spot-on with taking care of us. She made some great drinks and kept an eye on our needs quite nicely! Started with their onion petals and they were really tasty! The batter was excellent, they were perfectly fried, and the dipping sauce had a great flavor! For my entrée I opted for their Trotolle, which is a pasta dish and based on the description, I was expecting something with some flavor and a zing to it... What I got was on the bland side, both regarding spice and heat. The sausage in it was rather fatty and some pieces had to be spit out, as they were nothing but fat. The andouille was boring too. Overall, very underwhelmed with this entrée, but the menu looked great and the service was nice, so I'd definitely return. The venue is very nicely done and romantic too. But what is up with cellular bandwidth within One Loudoun?!?! It's absolutely horrible anywhere up and down this main drag! This is with Verizon and AT&T... the restaurant owners need to complain to the cell carriers who will come out, find the problem and resolve it (it's clearly interference, and yes, I posted that on a restaurant review hoping it gets resolved, but it didn't influence my thoughts about this restaurant, but it does influence my desire to come to One Loudoun versus going elsewhere to dine!) read more

The main appeal of this place is the romantic, dim ambiance with candles and little fox statues as decor. They also have a fireplace with seating and a gun mounted on the walls in the dining area. The outdoor section is also lit up with string lights. The place is very well decorated. It is well suited for a romantic date. The portion sizes are relatively small given the price and quality, which was a bit disappointing. The salmon was overall well cooked, and the greens that accompanied it went well with the grains. The lamb neck ragu was definitely better because the meat was tender and shredded and goes well with the plain polenta. The lavender cocktail was sweet but it made me somewhat nauseous after a couple of sips. Overall, this place is pretty nice for a pretty date, but the food quality is average--even a bit below average given the price range. read more

FOOD/DRINK: 4/5 SERVICE: 3/5 AMBIANCE: 3/5 We were looking into Lost Fox for a engagement celebration but found that you had to email in advance for reservations bigger than 2. I emailed and got a confirmation in 1-2 days. Note this for "last minute" reservations - it ain't gonna work. We arrived earlier than the newly engaged couple and they had no inkling that we were celebrating anything even though we called and emailed the place recently. We mentioned it multiple times before they got there and during the meal -- we were expecting a candle on a dessert or a "congrats" or something, but we barely got anything. Someone came over (not sure if it was a manager) and joked about doing "something." The something was giving shots to all of us (and not telling us what it was). Two of us (me included) cannot drink and it was extremely awkward. We appreciated the thought, but it was kind of an oversight. I saw the place settings and got really excited but the ambiance severely lacked. I thought at first that it was a nice place with a fireplace next to our table, but you can hardly see! We also couldn't hear ANYTHING and had to raise our voices just to talk. This is certainly not a place to go to celebrate or to have a date. We hadn't seen this family in almost a year and we wanted to catch up. We had to whisper to our waitress just so she could hear us. And forget about it when the "live music" (aka DJ) comes on at 9. It turns into a FULL CLUB and you can't hear yourself or enjoy dinner. This alone turns us off to coming here again. Service was underwhelming as well. Waitress had to be RIGHT next to us for us to hear her. No suggestions were made when we asked what was good. We wanted to order apps to have on the table when everyone else arrived but it was like pulling teeth. We had to wave her down to order appetizers, then again to order drinks and AGAIN to order food/dessert. The food also took a really long time. The apps weren't big enough to share and were clunky with our party size. Also, a lot of the food comes on these cast iron pans and are PIPING hot. You can't hear them say it's hot, but you just...find out. I know this seems like common sense, but they didn't put a towel or anything to protect you from serving yourself. Another odd and annoying thing is that you have to show your ID just to get something from your car. I guess I'm past that age because I was never carded (and I didn't drink). If you've reached this far, here's how the food and bev were. Apps were the sweet potato wedges ($9) and the nothin' but crab dip ($22). I ordered the grilled half chicken ($26) and the Hibiscus MargariNO ($12) and hubby had the rigatoni bolognese ($22) and the Cuban Punch drink ($13). We rounded out with olive oil cake, cheesecake, & chocolate pot de creme to share ($10 each). FOOD/DRINK: -sweet potato wedges - these were crisp and perfectly made, but it was not an app made to share between more than 2 people. it only came with 4 wedges. we had to awkwardly cut them in half to try to share. if our waitress would have made suggestions, we probably wouldn't have got them. $9 for 4 is not a good price point. either increase the portion size or lower the price. -nothin' but crab dip - the warmed pita was the star here. my in-laws are from MD and deemed it "really good." i think i've had better, but it wasn't bad. $22 is STEEP for this. but it did come with a sizable amount. -grilled half chicken - chicken was moist and falling off the bone, but the sauce seemed weirdly like sour cream? the fries were good, but some were limp and cold. too expensive. -rigatoni bolognese - very rich and filling, but i only had a bite. hubby kept stealing my chicken to get a break from the "one note pasta" (his words) -Hibiscus MargariNO - a very good mocktail in a cute glass, but I cannot believe they have the GALL to charge almost the same for this as the alcoholic ones!!! (I didn't try hubby's drink) -olive oil cake - extremely dry and spongey. HOW can an olive oil cake be dry? -chocolate pot de creme - good enough, but it was again, "one note" -cheesecake - weird texture and dry - my FIL did not care for it at all Overall, the food quality didn't match the prices. I don't understand why they are doing higher end pricing but the service and consistency don't match. We will probably not be back. read more

The Lost Fox is such a gem! The menu has so many standouts -- the olive oil cake is absolutely delicious, the scallops are cooked to perfection, and the waffle and crab dip are definite must-tries. Their cocktails are creative and well-balanced -- I loved the Impress the Bee, the mimosas are spot-on, and the jalapeño martini is a bold but perfect choice if you like a little spice. One of the best parts of this spot is the atmosphere. They have a rooftop patio on both the front and back of the building. If you can, grab a seat on the front patio -- it overlooks the water fountains and the theater, giving you such a gorgeous view, especially in the evening. The whole place has this eclectic, stylish vibe that feels both upscale and relaxed. Pro tip: definitely call ahead if you're planning to go on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, because it fills up quickly -- and for good reason. The Lost Fox is one of those places you'll want to keep coming back to read more

Tried out this spot for Mother's Day. I loved the Speakeasy vibes outside but they also have a nice patio area upstairs that has shared seating. We had a very nice and chatty waitress that was fairly attentive. We started with a Caesar salad which was large and really tasty. My sister ordered hot coffee which took forever to come out but I had a great espresso martini and the mimosas were nicely priced. Food wise we went with the avocado toast, the eggs Benedict, and a breakfast sandwich. My biggest complaint is all the bread was so hard, almost stale like. My sister needed a steak knife to cut her eggs Benedict and same thing for my avocado toast. read more
