Fox's Restaurant

Home style and incredibly cute restaurant. I enjoyed fluffly and delicious pancakes and eggs dish. My two companions ordered the green goddess omelet and loved it. All in all a great first visit. We'll be back !

This was a pleasant little restaurant in what was a small house once upon a time. The food is similar to their sister restaurant Cindy's. Good, reasonable, not exactly fancy, but definitely not plain. I'll be interested to try a few other things on the menu.
I had a chile relleno for breakfast and it was a great take on the dish. The kids had french toast with chocolate chips, which was a sugary mess and fine by them, but probably wouldn't suit the adult palate.

It definitely feels like a neighborhood spot, and sitting by the big front windows is nice in the morning.

I'll be going back to Fox's.

Shoutout to the waiter who was serving all the tables, answering phones, clearing tables, everything but making the food and kept a positive attitude the whole time. He was super attentive. Be sure to call ahead and reserve a table, it's a bit small inside so it fills up fast. The food was awesome! It's a little bit of a wait so grab a beer or glass of wine and enjoy your company. Date night was a success 💙💙

I went there for brunch with friends and the only thing we wanted more of was wait staff. However, we assume it's due to the pandemic. On the bright side, the food was exquisite. My rueben sandwich and pozole were perfect. When I ordered the pozole, I was skeptical, but man they did it right. The dollop of sour cream was well-placed. My partner had the sweet potato and shrimp hash which she found to be delicious and the shrimp was very well-cooked, given how easy it is to overcook it. The sangria was delicious. The fruit inside was fresh and far from soggy. The pancakes were nice and fluffy, just like the atmosphere. My partner and I are already talking about our subsequent return.

I had to drive an hour and a few minutes west to Altadena to pick up some artwork I bought online and having never been there before, the first thing I did was Google “places to eat in Altadena.” I’m not big on American food, with one exception: diners. I love diners. And I LOVE fish and chips. When I saw this place I knew I had to check it out. I love Foxes too, so the sign immediately got my attention. It’s a tiny little place. I guess it’s been there forever. And it looks like it’s been there forever. Retro furniture, the retro star wallpaper, and the red and black checkered floors were such a welcome sight to my vintage loving soul. The service was friendly. The customers were diverse. All ages, shapes, sizes and colors. All good things. They had a menu board with a variety of different pies but they were all sold out. We went at like 1pm on a Tuesday though so for a place that closes at 2, we showed up too late I guess. And that’s not a complaint. That just tells me that they’re worth showing up earlier for. I got the fish and chips. I get fish and chips everywhere I go that has it more or less and I don’t make this statement lightly- this was the best I’ve ever had. The breading was crisp but soft at the same time, like a funnel cake texture almost. The fries were perfect. They tasted like the fresh cut ones I’d get at the fair every fall growing up. The grilled lemon was a nice touch. My husband had breakfast, French toast, eggs, bacon, and the house made sausage. He loved it. There wasn’t anything left on either of our plates. So how good is this place? Let me put it this way…it took me longer to drive here one way than it did to get my food and eat it, and I work night shift where I usually sleep on my days off till 5-6 pm, and this place closes at 2pm…and I fully intend to make this a regular destination. Five stars, no question! If you love diners, check it out. It wasn’t my reason for coming to Altadena today, but it will be the reason I return. We are new to California and this is definitely going to be one of our spots. Great prices and big portions. Love it!
