Great alliteration!!— June 21, 2012 2:11 p.m.
Red Fox Steakhouse
I've only eaten at the Red Fox once, with a buddy that knew a lot about the lore and history of the place; It was a favorite of his parents', apparently, around the time he was conceived. According to my friend, it's like it's still 1970 there, nothing has changed. With an institution like the Red Fox, that is a great thing. Pluses: Strong mixed drinks, great service (my Coke ranneth over) and one of the best steaks (I think we had ribeyes) around. You get a simple salad, meat and potatoes. No frills. Kind of divey, or shabby-chic kind of like the Imperial House up the road in Banker's Hill, lots of red pleather and lounginess. Minuses: The lighting was too low for my liking, but hey, maybe it's for the romance! And of course, parking in the area was not terribly difficult, but it wasn't as close as one might want with older relatives in tow. Good stuff.— February 24, 2012 3:18 p.m.
