   We went for the bottomless brunch and mimosas, it was our first time out in over a year as we are parents of 3 with a4 month old. I loved the atmosphere, we were seated outside and although it was a cooler day, the fire made it quite comfortable. Our server was very kind but I'm my opinion had too many tables and couldn't be as attentive to when our plates were empty and the food came out pretty slowly which would have really upset me if they'd enforced the time limit but they didn't thankfully. One thing we didn't notice until the next day is that we ended up tipping 40% so the whole experience cost us $180 for 2 and I'm on mat leave so that felt pretty sickening to me. You'd think the server would remind us that there's an automatic gratuity when handing us the card reader. I enjoyed the experience but it wasn't worth almost $200 however that's our mistake, just seems sneaky to put a tip option in when you have already included it.

   We have come for the Bottomless brunch a few times and this is by far the worst. The food wasn’t as good, came out super slowly, sometimes cold and not as good tasting, and we felt ignored. The first plates we get were 2 plates for a table of 6. We had to wait at least 10 mins for more food. How are 6 people splitting 2 plates? Should have just brought nothing until there was more to offer. Furthermore not impressed with the service this time. What’s the point asking if you’re celebrating anything when servers don’t do anything special. There were at least 3 birthdays while we were eating and when I went to ask a server if we could do something for my husband’s birthday (we saw the big sign come out) she very snarkily just said that’s for bottles. No offer to do anything else. Thats so sad when we watched cake and signed and sparklers go out for multiple tables but not for my husband. I will really have think twice about returning here. It was a fave spot we recommended to lots of our friends but not anymore.

   went for my birthday last night! they switched our seating to better accommodate us since it was so crowded. The staff was were so nice. They danced and sang with us all through the night. The food was good & the drinks were hitting. The dj played good songs, had everyone there dancing all night. Everyone had a blast. 10/10 experience

   Honestly the place is great! The atmosphere is a vibe! Service is good. Were enjoyed our meals & drinks but when we asked for dessert we were told another group needed our table so we were unable to order and had to pay our bill and leave. We weren’t even there for a full hour. It was not a way we hoped to end our anniversary dinner.

   Went for the bottomless brunch and loved it. Portions were smaller so got to try a lot more than we had planned. Loved the caper cream sauce on the smoked salmon Avocado and the poutine was even better than expected. There's a non-alcoholic option which is good for the non drinkers and the whole table has to participate so give it some thought if going with kids. We'll be back when we need another gluttony feast. Lots of juice options for your bubbles and small portions of juice as well.so you can try multiple flavors.

   I went to Fox on John for a brunch with my friends and we had the best time ever. We decided to get the bottomless mimosas with food and omg everything was well cooked and well presented!

   We had to ask for cutlery and napkins, I thought they'd be on the table. It was a bit noisy for my taste, but that's to be expected in that type of establishment.

   It was quite loud with an in house DJ. Their bathrooms were busy, but clean and orderly. Would recommend as a tourist as it’s in a nice walkable spot
