Fox & The Knife Boston Reviews from The Last Year
RUN to the reservations page!!
We drove 6 hours from Rochester, NY to join you and it was 100% worth it!!! From the warm and friendly host (forgive me- I did not get their name!) to our server Willie to the FOOD... everything was perfection. I will dream about that focaccia bread for a VERY long time and my husband stands by his claim it was the best chicken he's ever had. We have been fans of Chef since she was on Top Chef. Fox and the Knife lived up to everything and more. We LOVED it and are now self appointed ambassadors. RUN to the reservations page!!
Highly Recommend!
Excellent experience all 'round. First-rate service from hostess/GM (?) Ash, continued great service while dining at the bar (Alyssa) - good food recommendations, good drinks, and the food was excellent. Maybe a little pricey for pasta dishes but given the all-around experience, still have to give full marks. The ambience is a plus factor too - keeps a somewhat intimate vibe while offering spacious layout and bar area.
This place is outstanding!!!! The minute we walked in we
This place is outstanding!!!! The minute we walked in we immediately felt welcomed. Chef Karen was very approachable and pleasant to talk with. We sat at the bar for a drink and couple small plate appetizers. House made Ricotta with toasted bread and Brussel Sprouts. Both were incredible. We were lucky to sit at the Kitchen Bar after a cancellation. We mentioned it to the hostess earlier in the evening and she remembered. While sitting there watching Chef Matt and the crew go to work we enjoyed the focaccia, the chickpeas, linguine and clams raviolo and chicken under the brick. It was all delicious, linguine and clams had a delicious flavor, sweer juicy clams and fresh pasta was unbelievable. Raviolo was good but my only criticism would be the edges may have been slightly undercooked, aside from that it was very good. Chicken stole the show. So tender along with a buttery brashed escarole. Must have been thanked 10 different times by 10 different people on our way out. Truly exceptional customer service cant wait to go back. PS Ashley was fantastic
I love it here.
Everyone always makes you feel so welcome. The food is always delicious and the service is always good. When my friend and I go we always get the broccoli Cesar, focaccia bread and I have to have the pork milanese. Such a fan of this restaurant and Karen :)
Memorably Wonderful Dining Experience
Last Friday, I flew into Boston to visit nearby family for a few days. I opted to stay overnight in the city specifically to be able to eat at Fox and The Knife with my mother and 12yo nephew - and it was so worth it! TLDR: If you can go, DO. We were seated up front, in the far corner, at a high-top between the window and the bar. The decor was classy without being fussy and it is tight quarters but not uncomfortable. The lighting was a bit too dark for my tastes; if I hadn't been studying the menu for weeks I don't think I would have been able to read it, and none of our food photos came out looking good which was a shame. But that's literally the only minor negative I have about the whole night. Our waiter, Fernando, greeted us and asked if we were there for any special occasion. I'm usually not a talker at these moments, but I couldn't contain my excitement and told him how much we'd been looking forward to coming. My nephew confessed I'd been showing him Chef Karen's TOC battles that afternoon to prepare. It wasn't long after that a manager (I am kicking myself that I didn't ask for her name - I don't know if she was the general manager, but I wouldn't doubt it) came over to ask my nephew if she could make a special drink for him - he was a bit shy about agreeing but she drew him out asking about his favorite flavors, etc. and came back to make him a rasberry lime fizzy drink in a pineapple glass - complete with a magic trick that he is STILL talking about. Fernando came back to take our orders - bietola & burrata for me, broccoli 'caesar' for my Mom - and was impressed when my nephew ordered the carne cruda. My Mom, who is never shy about chatting, told him my nephew has been cooking since he was a toddler and is very interested in restaurants and food (all very true). Shortly, the lovely manager came back over to ask my nephew why no one had told her there was a junior chef at the table! She stayed and chatted with him about her philosophy of learning about wine by tasting everything. He was totally fascinated. Our appetizers arrived and they were delicious and beautiful. Burrata is one of my favorite things ever and paired with the chiffonade chard, crispy shallots, and walnut vinaigrette it was really wonderful. Mom enjoyed her broccoli and my nephew described his carne cruda thusly: "the toast was toasted perfectly, and what was on top was undescribably delicious." Entrees next - I had the tagliatelle bolognese, Mom had the pork milanese, and nephew the agnolotti with braised beef in a roasted carrot butter and white miso sauce that he described as "immaculous." Mom loved her pork - could not stop gushing about how crispy and enormous it was (nephew ate half, hahah). I was honestly not sure I was going to like my entree as I've never had boar and am not always adventurous when it comes to meat, but I really really wanted to try the housemade tagliatelle. I am SO GLAD I took the chance because it was rich, and earthy, and the sauce was unctuous without being heavy. I ate every bit of it and probably would have made myself happily sick if there had been more. The lovely manager stopped by a couple more times to check in on us and chat with my nephew. I really think this will go down as one of the best nights of his young life - one he'll remember when he's my ancient age. As a doting auntie, naturally this made everything even better for me, too! He and I ordered dessert - olive oil chocolate cake with whipped cream and pistachio brittle for me, some sort of fragrant baked apple pastry thing for him. Neither of us could even eat half, but they were delicious. I loved how my cake was hardly sweet at all, and the pistachio brittle should be sold by the pound! While waiting for the check, nephew walked back down towards the open kitchen to get a look at the chefs working. The manager spotted him and told him who everyone was and what they were doing. She even introduced him to Chef Matthew Holland and nephew got a fist bump that sent him over the moon. Seriously - he had the HUGEST smile all night! I got the bill while he was having his moment and it was shocking how UNshocking the total was - really really reasonable considering we were having first class food and a lot of it. Conclusion: If the atmosphere had been less than stellar, the food would have been worth it. If the food had been "just ok", the dining experience would have been worth it. Together - it was really a night and a meal to remember. Chef Karen has always, on TV, seemed to be a warm, welcoming, open-hearted and generous type of person and her restaurant absolutely radiates those same qualities. We were treated like family - the type of family you haven't seen for a while and are excited to have around. The food was some of the best I have ever had - top 4 meals of my life. If I lived closer, I would go back at any and every opportunity. I really cannot recommend it highly enough.

This is not your typical Italian restaurant.
When you walk in you see no Italian decor nor do you get the vibe that you are in an Italian restaurant. However, once you start eating you can envision being in any province in Italy sampling this food and pairing it with a nice wine, of which they have many. It is a very casual place with friendly, chatty and very knowledgeable staff. We sampled about 6 different foods/dishes and everything was superb! I especially recommend the homemade ricotta. 5 stars! Also, I recommend you sit at the chef's counter. Not only will you see the action but the chefs will answer any question you have and help you make menu decisions.
Great service, very friendly staff, delicious food.
Nothing noteworthy to complain about. We sat at the chefs counter and loved it.
To set the tone, there were tampons in the MEN'S bathroom.
***EXTREMELY SMALL PORTIONS FOR THE PRICE*** We had the bolognese which was delicious but like 3 bites each. Then we had the chicken which was very good but a little salty and came over some salty wilted greens. they could've added a few potatoes as a side. Don't come here unless you're with someone very rich otherwise you will leave hungry!! The food was safe for my gluten allergy, but there was a shared fryer so anything fried was off limits due to cross contact. So there really werent that many menu options for me. I really would've wanted the house made ricotta or burrata but they didn't have gf bread or crackers? Why be good at allergy safety but not go the extra step?
Had an item from each section of the menu.
I forgot all their names. BUT I do remember the flavors were there, and I really enjoyed their take on fish. Service was a little slow but it was packed. Ambiance was good - very modern and intimate.
My girlfriend and I came here for Valentine's Day dinner
My girlfriend and I came here for Valentine's Day dinner and had a wonderful time. We had a reservation in advance and sat at the bar. The restaurant is dim and provides a romantic ambience. It is a little bit loud, but not terribly so. The bar tender made our drinks with care and they were delicious! For dinner, we ordered the potato chips, prosciutto, focaccia, broccoli Caesar salad, mushroom pasta and the spaghetti con vogole. All the food we ordered tasted amazing and the pastas were perfectly cooked with great presentation. Each noodle was al dente and not overly salted. There were two things I had a gripe about: the pastas took quite a while to come out after our appetizers, and second, the potato chips we ordered were Lay's chips. Not that I have a problem with Lay's, but I would have thought a restaurant of this caliber would have their own homemade potato chips. The menu did not specify that the chips were Lay's. Overall, it was a nice experience but I felt a little let down by the chips. I would come back for the pasta!
Came here for my birthday last weekend with no expectations
Came here for my birthday last weekend with no expectations and left full and happy! We tried a handful of entrees and one dessert and almost every dish was pretty phenomenal and I also loved their martini! Service was awesome and I plan to take my in-laws here the next time they visit!
The food was amazing.
They earned their michelin star for a reason. I ordered the branzino and it was incredible. Perfectly cooked and beyond delicious. I went here for my birthday and they even printed out a personalized happy birthday menu for me which I kept. I also loved the focaccia appetizer too. The chips were pretty good and a total bargain. But the rest of the menu is pretty expensive but I'd say its worth it.
Mediocre At Best
On the plus side - great atmosphere and fantastic waitress. We had read reviews that said it was loud, but we did not find this to be true. On the negative side - we asked for no mint on on the Brussels sprouts, and the chef refused to accommodate this simple request. That struck us as pompous and arrogant, especially considering we were sitting right in front of him at the Chef's Counter. We weren't asking him to remake a dish or substitute a protein - merely leave off something that was added on top. The entrees lacked flavor and despite looking amazing, the dessert had no chocolate flavor at all. Overall, the food was very disappointing, and we won't be back.
Superb dining experience
This was a special dinner for my wife’s birthday, and we had a great overall experience. Service from Hostess and Servers was excellent. Next of course were the appetizers and the main courses. All were fantastic! I love the concept used as various dishes were ordered for all four of us to share. This share concept reminded me of THE BEST dining experience my wife and I shared at Girl & the Goat Restaurant in Chicago. Most importantly, my wife, the birthday girl loved the overall experience at Fox & the Knife in Boston. Thanks to all the staff there!
I, too, would like my $300 back
Oh man - where to begin. I hardly ever leave reviews, but felt I had to this time. Been to Fox & Knife a few times, 1st time Matthew our bartender served some poor drinks ($24 for a gin martini!? when this was questioned was told it was a "Hendricks" gin martini. Hendricks is $35/bottle, nothing premium), but the food was great. Second time we sat at the bar on a rainy Wednesday night - different bar tender, drinks were good and food was amazing. Because of the 2nd time, we decided to go here with friends and family for a little celebration - there were six of us, so good sized party (and check). The former bartender Matthew was our sever. He reiterated several times (in a slightly annoyed manner I might add) that we needed to put the order in for all our food (apps and entrees) so that the kitchen could coordinate it. Well, Matthew started bringing food - some entrees first, an appetizer, then we waited. An entree appeared. Then we waited. Another entree appeared. Then we waited. Matthew, in his annoyed manner, mumbled something that could have been an apology or probably an excuse. Four us had entrees, one of three appetizers had appeared, and two of us were waiting. And we waited. In an attempt to not have the food go cold, we started in. Eventually the other entrees appeared, but by then the mood had soured, Matthew was brusque and zero help. So much for the much repeated need to put all our food in so the kitchen could "coordinate". The drinks this time were great, the food was ok and service and atmosphere (thanks Matt!) were horrible. We won't be back.
You can do better.
Great service mediocre food. Came here after researching best restaurants in Boston so naturally we had a high expectation. The bar staff was excellent and they deserve every compliments. Food, however, was disappointing. Th burrata salad was at best, “meh”. Pasta dishes were also “meh.” Pretty annoyed with the clams in the vongole being still sandy.
Regrettable evening, wish I had my $300 back
Such a disappointment. We had heard great reviews, but our experience was bad from every perspective. Brusque, uninterested server informed us we would need to order entrees in order to put appetizer order in so they could “time our experience,” which apparently meant move us through as quickly as possible, as entrees were dumped on the table less than 2 minutes after appetizers were cleared (give us a little time to digest!). Food was fine but nothing special, other than the fact that my pork cutlet was pink and shiny in the middle, so I didn’t feel safe finishing the dish (my son’s pork was cooked through, and he shared with me, as the portion was generous and he was not hungry, having just finished a table full of appetizers). The chocolate olive oil cake was actually tasty, and I had a great glass of Barbera. Overall review would be 2-star except that a manager noticed I had abandoned my pork, and when I explained why, they took it off the bill.

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

Forget trying to snipe reservations online by waking up early and booking top restaurants at Carbone or Tatiana or Cote or 4Charles. After 2.5 months of booking reservations by setting up alarms, waking up early to sell appointments. It’s very hard to cash out on this app. During cash out, you have to pay $5 fee +3% transactions fee and max payout per day is $150.
Advice to new users:
- do not mass book reservations
- fill bids only
- don’t try to book reservations online, you need connections and call the restaurant
