Little Fox

“Omg Wow! Wow! This is so good and was such an awesome experience. The service was excellent, the drinks were sublime, but the food was gluten-free next-level visionary. Occasionally you come across a restaurant that re-imagines gluten-free in a totally different way, that makes you feel seen, understood and not an annoyance! Don't skip dessert the budino pudding is to die for. Fwiw they do regular food and gluten-free. The staff and service was kind and efficient, impeccably knowledgeable and very capable. The owner is celiac”

“We love coming to little fox! The staff is always very kind and welcoming, the vibes are great and sitting on their patio is really nice and has great air flow, there’s a park across the street so the views are nice as well. Food is absolutely delicious! The only surprise I had was that their beef tartar was not very flavorful. I’m usually a big fan of tartar but both of us agreed it was a bit mediocre. Other than that every other item we had blew us away. Presentation, quality and timeliness. The Royal Trumpet Mushroom dish was shockingly good! I do not usually like mushroom dishes and this is my top recommendation to try.”

“Yet another restaurant that surprised me in St. Louis. They have good food here. Like, foodie food. So my next dinner lead me to Little Fox. A small plates restaurant that felt a little Italian. We make reservations and show up to this place that looks like a neighborhood pub. Quaint, in the corner, inviting light shining through medium sized windows. Inside, the vibes were a hybrid of someone's very nice dining room and an old western saloon. I know that's almost nonsensical, but the vibes were good. We felt right at home. Service was spot on. The server was very nice and new the menu pretty well. The food came out tapas style, so when something was ready, it just came right out. I like that. I like the periods where there are so many plates on the table at one time that it's overwhelming. What's what eating is all about. As for the food itself, it was good. I'll give a little blurb on each thing, as not to wear out your eyeballs. Crispy Artichokes (sauce au vert​). These were fun and nice and crispy. Don't see artichokes like these very often. The sauce was a little weak, though. Didn't exactly go well with these fried little morsels. 'Nduja Croquetas (bomba rice, spicy prosciutto, fontina, grenada pepper aioli). Wow, now these little flavor bombs cannot be missed. Spicy sausage arancinis with a nice peppery aioli to dip. An intensely flavorful little dish that I loved. Can't find it on the menu, maybe it was seasonal, maybe it was a special, but we had a bone marrow French onion soup that was nice. The soup was good good. Very well developed flavors. The marrow bone was a little sloppy, though, and we got a transverse cut of bone, leaving very little marrow to access. Next were the Mussels (green garlic broth, Spanish vermouth, pickled peppers, spring onions, grilled LF bread). Very well cooked mussels, sitting in a lovely broth to dip your bread in. Ask for extra bread. But do not ask for extra of that sauce. That was really bad sauce. Sauce work seems to be this place's only weak point. Probably the biggest dish of the night, the Bolognese Bianco (Newman Farms pork & mushroom bolognese, bucatini, gremolata, parmigiano reggiano). This was a really nice pasta dish! Love those big, thicc bucatini noodles. Flavorful bolognese, great texture from the gremolata, and just cheesy enough to make this probably the most complete dish of the night. Then finally the Sea Scallops (ramp soubise, morel mushrooms, house-cured pancetta). Scallops were scored and cooked to look like fine art. Light scallops paired with nice umami from the morels and the pancetta, all tied together by that nice soubise. You don't see that very often either. We ended the meal with a Sticky Toffee Pudding (apple & date cake, apple brandy toffee, crème chantilly, marcona almond tuile). Chef's kiss. Such a delicate sponge with a nice date flavor. Then boom, the sweet boozy toffee, the creamy chantilly, the texture from the tuile. Every element helped make this a great dessert to end a great meal. Overall, another very pleasant surprise. This was a very good dinner, and I'll definitely come back if I'm ever in St. Louis again.”

“This place is amazing! My husband and I had a fun date night! The small plates were flavorful and the service was amazing! The cocktails were just as good! We split all the dishes! We had to get another set of bread for the mussels because it was that good!”

“Amazing place to have a fantastic dinner with attentive and knowledgeable staff. If trying to impress someone or just treating yourself the place will not disappoint. Steaks are cooked to order, flavors are inventive and fresh, drinks are crafted to perfection. I really cannot say enough about the establishment and their amazing staff. All this from an old jaded hotel and restaurant professional who enjoys every visit!”
