Loved it here! The atmosphere is fantastic, drinks were great, service was awesome! Came in and it was Survey Sez night so we had a great time eating and playing games! Loved their potstickers and sliders. We will be back! read more

Been back twice (why, if I hated it the first time? This is Dover. Eat here, you'll understand.) The first was a luncheon for a half dozen ladies. Service--bent over backwards. Food--good. Generous soup salad sandwich lunch and a crazy-good dessert. Don't take one bite of that bananas foster on puff pastry or you will find yourself eating enough calories for a troop of Eagle Scouts. Don't say I didn't warn you. Way too good. I think I had a BLT--anyway all was great. Second meal. I had a strip steak. Cold and gristly. Sent back to be cooked med rare, not raw, came back lukewarm and gristly. Asparagus, which grow here, were tiny pencil-lead spears cooked to death. Soaked in some kind of "butter." Blech. The dogs didn't touch the leftover steak. These dogs steal paper bags and eat them. They steal cabbage and eat a whole head. Either they are vegans or they hated the steak too. I vote for "hated." Who has a vegan dog? One out of two. Yeah, I'll be back. What choice do I have? Can't serve business guest peanut butter and jelly sammidge from my desk. read more

We sat outside it was beautiful, there were a group of locals outside with us who were obnoxious, ignorant, and very loud. We tried our best to ignore. Otherwise, we got the appetizer platter which was awesome. Get the pickle fries, they're awesome. We had basil cucumber martinis which were tasty. Also the waiter suggested the chocolate lava cake which was the bomb. read more

Super happy w/ the food, unhappy about the service. The place was dead inside. This was because we had a late lunch on a Saturday and couldn't have been more pleased with the quality and taste of the food. We ordered a Burger, and a chopped steak sandwich. The tater tots were really fun, they're shaped like Tetris pieces. However the service was off. The place was dead, again it was an off eating time. So here's what happened, We were acknowledged when we entered the beautiful old house. Then waited 5 minutes to be sat. We ordered food off the lunch menu, which is what we wanted and it was great. However, we weren't offered refills on our drinks and our ticket wasn't delivered. I hd to go track it down. Regardless, i'd still return. read more

I have never experienced a more awful restaurant experience. The owner is extremely rude and does not know how to manage a restaurant. Our waitress was sweet and doing her best. When a restaurant is poorly run, which starts with management, it is unfortunate that the wait staff is hurt by this. I can only imagine how disgusting this kitchen is if the owner/management presented this way. Do not go to this restaurant!!!! Couldn't even recommend the food because we never ate after waiting 90 minutes for food! read more

Pretty alright. Drinks were phenomenal, pretzel appetizer solid, but my chicken salad sandwich tasted odd (disclaimer: my fat ass at the entire thing) and the side tater tots seems to be from the freezer aisle. My friend initially ordered a hamburger, but the waitress returned to say they were "out." She recommended the open roast beef sandwich, which turned out to be pretty good. Bonus: the place is apparently haunted! read more

Yikes..Save your $$$..Go to McDonalds instead! Poor service, Crab Cakes all filler! Very Very disappointed in entire experience! Never again! read more

Went here for dinner with my brother & sister-in-law. Food was excellent as was the service, however the restaurant was a little bit noisy. I will definitely be going here again. read more

Amazing food. But the last time we were there was terrible ! It took us an hour for us to eat after we were seated and another 25 mins to get our actual entree after JOLENE let them know we were waiting. All and all we got there at 12, and didn't leave until 2:30! Honestly I would go there again but only is Jolene was our waitress. Ask for her and ask for the the shrimp and grits if you're going there for brunch! Thank you Jolene read more

Nice place in an old house with great vibe and feel. Relatively small menu but the food was great. I got the shrimp as well as the edamame off the app menu. Both were fantastic. The drinks were good. The only shortcoming was the draft beers were on short supply...#COVID. This is a great place when visiting Dover. read more

So disappointing! I ordered a flatbread with chicken and they had to substitute quesadilla bread. No problem except the chicken was so dry and there was nothing except 2 tablespoons of shredded lettuce To make it palatable. When I asked for additional lettuce, I receive an amount inadequate for a decent salad plus they charged me $1.00. Minuscule amount, I know, but I was not told to expect a charge. I will never go again as far too many good restaurants in town. read more

Not at all handicap accessible if you have a need for that. Steps to get in and an unmarked step down into the bar area. Beware! Food was okay, but nothing to write home about. I had the steak with rice and summer vegetables mix. Bar area looked cozy, but I would not hang around until this pandemic is over. read more

Visited Dover for a work event, and I was unamused by the reviews on most of the restaurants in Dover... and then I found this place!! We came here two nights in a row because the food was SO GOOD!! We had the best experience with Rachel on the first night! She made the BEST cocktails ever! I had the shepherds pie BOTH TIMES, it was off the chain. 10/10 recommend! Great atmosphere, great food and cocktails! read more

I'm a huge fan of the Grey Fox for many reasons. The bar staff are friendly and efficient. The chef makes comforting and elegant food. Need I say more? I stop by for lunch, dinner and often order food to take away. Always on point. The soups are my favorite to take home. Keep up the great work! read more

The ambiance and atmosphere isn't really up my alley but some of my friends loved the old antebellum style house. Nice, quiet private rooms. Food was beautifully presented but was mediocre at best. Service was average. read more

The staff at the Fox go above and beyond to cater to their customers! The cook prepared me a meal not on the menu to accommodate my dietary restrictions. The restaurant was clean and the food was great! read more

Nice place. We had a dinner meeting and was very surprised at the level of service and the quality of the food. I had the Montgomery crab cakes. Great quality, not a lot of filler and sweet crab meat. The baked potato was done perfectly. The wait staff was very attentive with out crowding. Would come back here again! read more

I love this place. It is one of my favorite restaurants. The atmosphere is very chill and the service is personal. There are rooms upstairs that can be used as additional banquet space for small gatherings. I held my sister's bridal shower here two years ago and family and friends are still talking about how good the food was. read more

The last time I went to this place it was called Smither's. Let's just say it's been four years and I'm very impressed with this rebranding. The food was awesome, the ambiance was great and no one was there looking for a fight. I recommend this for romantic dates and group fun as well. read more

We just moved from Colorado and decided to spend the day exploring. Stopped by here for a late lunch and ate at the bar. The bartender Austin provided great service and made recommendations that turned out to be spot on. Super wings, nice selection of beer in tap and a very cool atmosphere! We look forward to our next visit. read more

Found thus online and made a reservation for our bike weekend. Omg is all I can say. Had the flatbread snd the barramundi and my hubby had the shrimp and sausage scampi. Everything was fresh and absolutely out of thus world tasty!!! The dinner was delish as was the dessert. A sweet potato maple layered cheesecake to die for. We shared but I thought about ordering a second for myself. Give this gem a try you won't be disappointed. And Austin our waiter rocked and made some great suggestions read more

My Daughter and Son in Law took me to this lovely house on State St. for dinner. The house is lovely inside and out. The server was very attentive, and cute. We sat in the room next to the kitchen, and with two cooks at the table, it was enjoyable to watch the kitchen staff. Now on to the food. The two appitisers I could have made a meal out of. Skewered chicken (4) and Tots a Large bowl of tots. Daughter had the Tokyo Salmon, Son in law had the burhimmundi fish. I had the Crab cakes, to die for. I would give it 4 and a half stars. The owner was very informative and gracious. All in all, a very, enjoyable evening. Cheri Bouldin read more

I am surprised at all of the glowing reviews. My experience here was subpar from beginning to end. We made the mistake of going on trivia night, so if you aren't participating in this prepare to be ignored. We waited 10 minutes for a table and 15 to be greeted by our waitress. Upon reviewing the menu, I was shocked to discover that while the whole back page is burgers - they don't serve French fries. What in the world? The food was subpar anyways. The house blend dry rub just made the chicken wings taste dry - there was no flavor. Burgers were dry, and multiple order intricacies were missed due to our waitress not writing our order down. Will not ever return. The extra star is due to the Tetris tater tots - however I can't imagine they're made in house so take that with a grain of salt. read more

A waiter came and set down a soup that I hadn't ordered and walked away before I could say anything, and when he realized he came back and took it from my table to the table it belonged. I hadn't touched it but there was no way he could know whether I had or hadn't and he still served it to someone else. Another server came by and took our appetizer before we were finished, she was just zipping around all the tables taking things in passing so it was difficult to get her attention either. Our waitress forgot our drinks. The waitress for the table next to us kept coming by an apologizing to them for something they were waiting on, and they had been there since before we were seated. The cod had a weird dry chewy texture and the "hot tots" were like Tetris shaped tater tots. Just an all around odd experience. Edit: this was Feb 15 read more

Just had an amazing brunch with family and friends. Military discount! Totally didn't expect that. The Fox Sausage and biscuit with poached eggs was on point. The biscuit was French toast. Definitely doing brunch again. read more

Their brunch is disgusting. Waitress reeked of cigarettes. The food all came from a box and was just reheated. The bloody Mary was undrinkable through a straw there were so many chunks of stuff in it. Come on Dover bring us something we can enjoy! Just received an update from the manager that everything is made fresh except the tits. You're telling me that the french toast is "made" in the kitchen??? The bloody mary was all pickle juice with large seeds. read more

Do not order the Fish and Tots! The tots were good but ive had better Fish from Walmart frozen Fish! They have 0 skills in Cooking fish However My wife had the Chef Salad which was Very Hearty and the Chicken and Dumplings Soup was also Pretty Good....I dont get how you can have fish batter as hard as a rock tho read more

Perfectly good food, friendly, accommodating staff. Pretty chilly until the space heater was turned on and I had a pirate coffee in hand. Had a random man approach our table begging for money, which was a little odd, especially when the staff appeared to be completely okay with it - or expected it. read more

Stopped in and waited at front door. I suspect I was earlier than most. Waited a while then decided to venture in to the bar (straight-ahead from front door). I asked if I could be seated and they quickly helped me. My salad was fresh, no complaints. The fish was fine, nothing to rave about, but nothing to complain either. The seafood stuffing was actually a bit better than the fish itself. The vegetable of the day was grilled brussel sprouts. I thought that a bit odd because I know there are those that love them, but I thought they were not as roundly liked as other vegetables. And there was no other vegetable choice. So oddly, I had rice and potatoes with my fish. A bit overkill on the starch. I should have just gotten the rice and refused the second side. My server was attentive, zooming around making sure everyone was doing okay. read more

Been meaning to go here again since restrictions ended. I wish I had gone sooner! Holy cow. Food and drinks were amazing... again. They had a sax jazz musician! I had the Cottage pie and my hubby had the barramundi. He said it was the best fish he ever had. I will take his word for it (i dont do fish). The gravy on the cottage pie was amazing. I could have eaten it like soup! Go on saturdays They have 1/2 price martinins and 7 dollar beer flights. Highly recommend!! read more

Very nice place. Service was unbelievable. We had at least 4 people waiting on us. Irish coffee was spectacular. Great Burger.

I just returned from a ladies' luncheon that had been booked for several weeks prior to today. Management scheduled 1 waitress to serve 26 of us in an upstairs private dining room. The kitchen is on the 1st floor. She could only handle 4 lunches on the tray each trip up and down the steps, while we waited and waited for all of us to be served. Kudos to her as she hurried back and forth and maintained her pleasant manner. I would never return to a place that put such a burden on their staff to save a little money. I felt uncomfortable throughout the luncheon, witnessing such abuse and could not enjoy my food. I am surprised that anyone would work under management like this. I will never return to the Grey Fox Grille. Shame on them. read more

My family and I are new to this area and after reading the reviews we looked forward to experiencing the Grey Fox. But our first visit will likely be out last. I can overlook the amount of time it took for us to be seated, the layers of dust and dirt on window sills and blinds, the dirty and sticky salt and pepper shakers but the quality of the food was impossible to overlook. My daughter ordered a crab cake sandwich which was totally inedible. It had been cooked in oil that was way too old and had a rancid taste. It also smelled fishy which should never be in fresh seafood. I ordered an open face cheese steak sandwich with an jus, which tasted fine till I found the 10 inch hair in it. Needless to say we left without eating our lunches and of course we were not required to pay but all in all we were very disappointed in a restaurant that has a good reputation read more

Ordered the grilled cheese. Figured for $8 it was gonna be an big, amazing grilled cheese sandwich. four cheeses... yum!! However, I think they ran out of the "big" pieces of bread and what I got what the Wonder Bread from the grocery store. This is the grilled cheese I ate when I was 8 yrs old. And no, this was not ordered off of the kids menu. As my first time eating from the Grey Fox, I am disappointed. IMO - do not order the grilled cheese or you will end up going to a fast food place because you will still be hungry afterwards. 2 stars because the tots were great! read more

Excellent service. Very friendly waitress. We ordered the tater tots, veggie skewers, and the Fox trio. Taters were crispy, sauce delicious, and plentiful portions. They were very salty, so if you're not a fan, skip these or ask for low salt. Veggie skewers were soooo tasty. Grilled just right and seasoned. The sauce was some kind of house Ranch mix and good. The platter was egg salad, chicken salad, and tuna salad. It comes with a good portion of crackers and sits on a bed of lettuce. It was tasty. If I'm back in state again and in the area, I would definitely consider a return visit. read more
