Reviews for Foxfire Grill in Alexandria, VA
Food was delicious , my salmon kale plate was really tasteful !! Appetizers were good as well, but where this place really... shines is in their service, Mauricio was so profesional, he explained the menu perfectly and he was so funny and nice ?. We willcome back and hopefully we get him again as our server! highly recommend!!!! Read more
Great food and nice staff. The place was moderately busy when we were there but we got served quickly. It would have been nice... to get rolls or biscuits w/our meal. Read more
A friend and I made reservations for the spring wine tasting. The wines were interesting, and the food bites were well-seasoned,... but the service was not well-coordinated. The servers were responsive and busy the entire time, so this was probably anadministrative difficulty. Still, I expected more from a wine tasting/pairing. Read more
Let me first say I have worked in the food industry most of my life and am normally super understanding, in fact this is the... first negative review I have ever written. I have been to this place twice and both times it was bad. I gave it a pass the firsttime as everyone has bad nights. We decided to give it a second shot today for brunch. My shrimp omelet was way over cooked andthe shrimp were precooked and cold. My wife ordered the ahi tuna salad. Her fish was not fresh and was raw. It barely touchedthe grill . She sent it back and just canceled the order. This is saying something ad she loves sushi. We ordered the kidschicken tenders for my daughter. She loved the broccoli but we would not let her touch the chicken fingers as they wereundercooked and soggy. The oil was clearly not hot enough. Needless to say we will not be returning. To end on a positive note,the server was very friendly, the food just sucks. Read more
We first found out about Foxfire Grill from an episode of Restaurant: Impossible in January 2020. Unfortunately Covid shut... everything down before we had a chance to visit. Now that things are opening back up and a Restaurant: Impossible Revisitedepisode reminded us of Foxfire Grill we stopped in for lunch when we were in the area (we're not local). The restaurant looksgreat. Robert's design and build team did a great job. One piece of advice, if you're a bit fluffy like me opt for a table orswing not a booth. Trust me. We started lunch with the coconut shrimp with jícama slaw and the chicken quesadilla. The shrimphad a great coconut flavor with nice flakes of coconut on the exterior. This was the first time I had jícama slaw. It was niceand crunchy and a little sweet. Tasted great. The dipping sauce had a nice pineapple flavor with a bit of jalapeño to give it alittle bite. The quesadilla had nice sized pieces of chicken and a great flavor. My wife had the 1/2 BLT avacado sandwich andside salad. She loved the B and the LT, avacado and salad greens were all fresh and flavorful. I had the shrimp and grits. OMGthe sauce was so good. If you poured it over an old shoe I'd eat it. I'm a big fan of shrimp and grits and this was probably thebest I've had. Usually with shrimp and grits you get whole shrimp. Foxfire takes it to the next level by removing the tails andcutting up the shrimp so it's distributed throughout the sauce. This makes it so much easier to get some shrimp in every bite.If we were local to Foxfire we'd definitely dine there often. Now we'll have to plan to be in the area more often so we canvisit.

The appetizers were just ok. We went at the regular dinner time and they were out of couple of their items including the sea... scollops, one of their most expensive item on the menu...so we got the parmesan crusted chicken and foxfire bolognese instead.Those were great, however the foxfire bolognese supposed to come with linguine, but the dish came out with fettuccine...anyway,all I can say is that the service was great! Food wise, there?s room for improvement. Read more
This place has been around for a long time now but my first time trying it - and very pleased! Monday was half priced burgers... ($5 for most, if not all) and $7 appetizers until 7pm. Our server, Alex (almost sure about that...) was very kind, attentive toour needs, and very knowledgeable about the menu. Food arrived quickly and tasted great. Didn't get a chance to meet the ownerbut saw her walking around, greeting tables, which was nice. Read more
It is always a great experience at this friendly neighborhood restaurant. The staff and the owner are always friendly, and the... food has been excellent every time out of the hundreds of times we've frequently dined here. Read more
