    The Vibrantly Colored Entrance.
    Evan W.

    I'm a sucker for a legacy location that's survived through the decades and changed just enough to stay relevant without losing their charm. That's why I was excited to try Hungry Fox, which I've only just discovered despite living here for 39 years, and despite the fact that the HF has been open since the early 1940's. Unfortunately the experience wasn't quite what I'd hoped for, though there were definitely some bright spots. To begin, the exterior of this neighborhood coffee shop is a vibrant green that catches the eye in a very inviting way. Inside, the staff is as friendly as can be, offering a quick, lively greeting and seating me fast. I was seated at a booth on the long side of the venue, and you can tell that this area was originally occupied by an old-fashioned counter with stools. At some point, the counter was removed and replaced by booths and tables in order to increase seating capacity, but the service shelving that would have been hidden behind the counter is now completely visible, and a big stash of back-up dishes and cleaning supplies isn't the most appetizing environment for a meal. Additionally, the wood trim around the booths and the textured wallpaper have absorbed quite a bit of grease, and could really use a deep cleaning. I normally love the throwback nature of these old-school gems, but this one just seemed a tad too untended. As to the food, I opted for a diner classic: Corned Beef Hash with Eggs Over Medium, Home Fries and White Toast. The hash was the best of the components, seemingly made in-house and cooked to a nice crisp as I requested. The flavor was memorable, with unconventional seasonings that were a really nice surprise. The eggs, however, were a disappointment: cooked in too much oil that was probably too hot, the egg whites were "fried" to a crispness that made them tough, and if you look at the close-up photo you'll see the oil pooling on the eggs. I only ate one of them. Home fries were also cooked on a too-high heat, the skins getting burned without being truly crispy, and there was very little flavor despite the inclusion of onions and peppers. Toast was made too soon after my order and arrived cold. So, while I accept higher prices in our current economy, this really didn't feel like a breakfast plate worthy of its $20 price tag. In the end, the people here are nice, and I hate to not be supportive, but I don't know that I would return anytime soon. And with other similar legacy locations starting to close, it would be great if the owners here were able to step up their game at least a little bit to attract new folks like me and keep us coming in.

    My friend and I decided to check out the Hungry Fox for brunch. I got there a little before her and put our names down. It was about a 15 minute wait on a busy Sunday afternoon, but I would say that 15 minute wait is not that bad. They have a parking lot with free parking, so that's very convenient but that space inside is quite intimate but it's a cute diner. The host and staff were all friendly but the service was a bit slow and not super attentive. I ordered the fried chicken and waffles and my friend ordered a chicken chillaquilles with a red sauce. The food in my opinion was underwhelming. I enjoyed my waffles and I appreciated the smaller pieces of chicken but, I felt like it lacked flavor. The chillaquilles also lacked flavor and felt a bit bland. It was disappointing because those two dishes are supposed to be their best selllers! They also forgot my Thai iced coffee and charged it to our bill, so I made sure to point it out to them before paying. Overall, I feel like this was an overhyped brunch place and I'm glad I gave it a try but, I would not recommend it.

    We drove about 40 minutes to have brunch at the Hungry Fox. I think my husband came across a review on social media. There was a crowd outside waiting for a table. We probably waited 20-30 minutes to be called. Once seated we quickly got drinks & our food followed soon after. We were trying to have something different but the chilaquiles always suck us in. Overall it was a good experience, good food, fast service & lots of street parking. They do have a private parking lot but I'm sure it fills up fast. I tried Thai coffee for the first time, pretty yummy. The loco moco was unfortunately bland. I sprinkled pepper on it to give it a kick. Our chilaquiles came in red & green salsa, although we asked for green. Not a problem, my husband ate the red side & I ate the green. The steak was tender & perfectly medium rare. Try it out!

    My husband surprised me by bringing me here for breakfast, "HES NOT ALLOWED TO WATCH ANY MORE TIK TOK VIDEOS !!!! Dry pancakes, dry scrambled eggs. My husband ordered steak chilaquiles that were also very simple for the price. We were both very disappointed. This place is overrated, food was below average, service was okay, ambience was not the best in my opinion.

    First time trying hungry fox, Food was very delicious felt very home style which is something I love. The service was great friendly, would recommend trying this place.

    I've been to the hungry Fox a couple of times. I have enjoyed every visit and meal here. As always, there was a bit of a wait but as soon as a table is available they don't waste any time and prepare it for the next party. Everyone who works here is welcoming and friendly! You can tell how much they care about their business and creating yummy meals for others. Once my mom and I sat down, our order was taken. The food came out in 15-20 minutes. My mom and I orders the eggs and bacon meal. The hashbrowns were a generous amount and just your plain hashbrowns. They are very generous with the bacon! I was only able to eat two strips and took the rest home. The bread with butter and their house made jam was delicious. The waffle was delicious. My mom usually isn't a fan of waffles but these won her over for their soft and delicious flavor! I love the waffles here, and two squares was more than enough to satisfy my craving! While eating my meal I noticed customers around me happy and enjoying their food. It's clear that The Hungry Fox is a gem in the San Fernando valley that creates homemade meals and a place for loved ones to come together. I will definitely be back. :)

    Skirt Steak Chilaquiles
    Francis G.

    Well I finally go to try this place and I have to say it didn't disappoint! This fine establishment is nestled on the busy street of Sherman way. It's got that diner American dinner charm when you walk in but with a Thai home feeling too. The people here who served me were great! They welcomed me and treated me like their own and with the other customers who were eating there too! They were also treated like they were regulars even though they probably were already and even if they weren't like myself, they treated all who walked in greatly! Their menu had some American staples and some of those staples had a Thai twist to them although I will say I only saw it briefly and so I'm not too sure but I can say with confidence they had Thai iced tea and Thai iced coffee which I got the latter and with that I got the chilaquiles skirt steak with scrambled eggs. I want to say that if you're a fan of chilaquiles it is pretty good! You get a generous portion of the tasty chips under your eggs with some pickled onions your choice of the verde or rojo sauce for the chilaquiles in which I got both for it and it was the best ever so much flavor and I haven't even gotten to the skirt steak which not only was tender but so juicy and flavorful. I asked for it to be medium rare and it came out mostly medium-well but the tenderness and juiciness of the steak itself was just spectacular. I got the Thai iced coffee and I will say the taste is different because I'm used to drinking Thai iced tea but when drinking the coffee you can definitely tell the coffee had a special taste to it like it was very prominent in flavor! I liked it very much it was a different taste. I think this place is great and it makes sense as to why this place stood through the test of time. Great people, great service and great food! I definitely will come back and make myself a regular because this place is great! 5 of 5 stars for me!

    Thai jasmine green tea
    Gabe L.

    Back in 2026 and this place never disappoints! Their menu looks updated to have spam kimchi fried rice and some other new items but we couldn't resist getting the oldies but goodies. Thai green tea: floral and sweet in the best way possible! Pam's loco moco: still seasoned perfectly with lots of garlic and peppercorns and just the right amount of fat. Country fried steak: their batter is seasoned perfectly and it tastes like a giant nugget and I mean that it's so delicious!! Service is always great here, best breakfast in town!

    Thai Sausage BF Quesadillassausage
    Meg M.

    This place is so worth the hype and the wait! We waited about an hour before we were seated but once you're in, the servers are so nice and the food is amazing! The jasmine green tea is so good if you like a floral tea. I got the Thai sausage quesadilla and the biscoff pancake and both were delicious. The flavor of the Thai sausage was so unique, and not something I'd ever had. The first bite of the biscoff pancake was like heaven. My friend said that is the face of euphoria and it's true. I don't even care how many calories are in that thing. It's probably one of the best pancakes I've ever had. It's very very good. My friend got the skirt steak chilaquiles and he said that it was great portions and quality.

    The Hungry Fox had to be my first review of the year!!! Our first time there and now we will be forever patrons! Staff was super friendly and the menu was vast - I was so excited to see options like spam, loco moco and white rice!!! The rice was cooked perfectly and was so good! It hit the spot on a rainy day, exploring North Hollywood. Thanks for a great start to 2026!!

    Chicken and waffle

    Such a great spot for breakfast! The best chicken and waffles I've ever had! My parents had the steak and chilaquiles and they loved it as well. My grandma has the pancake combo and she also enjoyed it. Everything was so great!

    Are they still adding the $18 tip on the check?

    Hi! Thanks for asking 😊 We include a 15% service charge for parties of 4 or more. For smaller groups, gratuity is entirely optional. Hope to see you soon!

    Does 'not sold by the piece' mean I can't get an all white meat chicken & waffle order?

    You can get it but its extra

    Do they gluten free options or dairy free? Do they accommodate for those with food sensitivities?

    Truthfully I do not think so. It's a very old school type of place, which is its appeal. They gave by caught up on these times. Sorry. I do hope this was helpful.

    Do they have high chairs available for babies?

    Yes

    When does the early bird menu end?

My son didn't make a reservation because it was a Wednesday night and he didn't think it would be crowded. But with 5 adults and a baby carriage, we had to wait for the right table because the somewhat small restaurant was full. We soon got a good spot and ordered the shrimp ceviche and the pan fried dumplings for appetizers. The ceviche was served on a bed of crispy noodles and it was refreshing and satisfying. The dumplings were crispy, not greasy, and flavorful. For dinner, we got 2 orders of japchae and 3 orders of bibimbap. With 2 Korean-born children and having visited the country, those are among our family's favorite dishes. And they did not disappoint. The japchae noodles were just right. They were not too firm and not too soft and well-seasoned. With a mixture of veggies, meat, mushrooms, eggs, and that delectable sauce, the bibimbap tickled and satiated the tastebuds. I told the server there was a birthday at the table and she brought out an excellent creme brulee with a candle in it. My husband and I didn't pay the bill. But the prices were reasonable with most of the entrees costing less than $20 each. We have four more days in town and may very well make another visit to indulge in that scrumptious food.

Unfortunately, this was one of the worst dining experiences I've had. I was seated in the very corner, and after my order was taken and my food was dropped off, I was completely forgotten. No one checked on me--not once. No one asked how my food was, if I needed a refill, or if I needed anything else. I sat there watching the tables around me receive attentive service while I was completely ignored. The people behind me were checked on multiple times while I couldn't even get someone's attention. I eventually had to wave down the hostess just to ask for a to-go box and my check because my server never came back. It honestly made me feel invisible. To make matters worse, the food was mediocre at best. It definitely didn't live up to the hype, and it certainly wasn't worth the poor service. I left feeling disappointed and unwelcome. Between being completely neglected and the underwhelming food, I have no reason to come back. There are plenty of places that appreciate every customer, and unfortunately, this wasn't one of them.
