We popped in on a Friday afternoon and the place was pumping, surprising for a week day! The service was fast and efficient and while we didn't get a seat outside on the deck, we got one right in the window so were still able to take in the breathtaking hilly views of the Red Hill country side. Foxey's offers wine tastings if you are on a cheeky tour, otherwise you can grab some simply yet delicious nosh to accompany your glass of wine, with all menu items costing $12. We ordered: + Bread with olive oil and pistachio spice + Mushroom sausage rolls + BBQ quail The sausage rolls were truly a standout and an absolute must if you visit. A lot of the wine at Foxey's is award winning. Best ask the friendly staff what might go best dependent on the flavours you like.

The waiters were prompt and friendly there was a fantastic wine selection We had the Burrata as a starter with some bread, it was absolutely stunning, the best Barrata iv had. Everyone ordered there own mains and shared the vegetable sides, which was a fantastic conversation starter. With everyone having there own mains we ordered 2 vegetable sides for 4 people and i was the perfect amount. The perfect place to surprise someone special on a cute date.

Actually, the food was pretty thoughtful here, too. In the kitchen of this assured one-hat place, head chef Andrew Doughton serves arty creations and exciting flavour combinations. To start, an amuse bouche: tuna tartare on crispy pig's skin with a smooth layer of mirin adding a satisfying savoury dash of unami and holding everything together. Ash-baked celeriac, cauliflower 'tofu', cedar, kale and nashi pear. An adventurous veggie starter - we liked that they tried to make this dish as exciting and multi-dimensional as possible, and while some elements really worked in isolation, the plate ended up being a bit of a miss-mash of flavours and, in particular, textures. From fibrous celeriac to the crunchy kale and a spin on tofu - the consistency of thick-set natural yoghurt. Not convinced, but that's certainly better then being presented with a boring, safe vegetarian starter. Blue swimmer crab spring roll, fennel, sweet corn mayonnaise and chicken skins. Great - crunchy pastry, creamy crab filling, crisp chicken skins. A hit. Big fan of sweet corn mayo, too. Grass-fed aged sirloin, shallots, king browns, radish pods and barbecue sauce. A joy to behold, perfectly cooked rare steak peppered with perfectly cooked vegetables and sitting in a thick, rich and unctuous sauce. Otway pork belly and neck, black pudding, toffee apple and baby leeks. The holy trinity of pork belly - moist meat, gelatinous fat, teeth-sticking crackling. Hallelujah! Plus the added bonus of rich neck meat marbled with rich veins of fat and black pudding. Pig on a plate. Done. Tarte au citron, salted oats and fennel pollen ice cream. One word. Deconstructed. And it worked without trying too hard or alluding us common folk who just love a good lemon tart. Great citrus flavour offset by the salty oats and smooth ice cream. Handpicked berries, parsnip, hazlenut, basil blossoms and sorbet. Parsnip cream (wrapped in pretty much the same pastry as the crab starter) and tart berries with a punchy sorbet. Another beautiful dessert in which the savoury elements almost overtook the sweet - a great end to a meal without the sickening sugar rush. This place runs like clockwork under the watchful eye of Samantha, and its welcoming spaces move from casual wine bar, to homely restaurant to smarter dining room with ease. Book a taxi and get stuck into that wine list. A truly memorable menu and gorgeous place to pass an evening. The same couldn't really be said for lunch the following day, at the Red Hill Estate, but that's another story all together... Part 3 coming soon. But first, when you are not eating and drinking, be sure to check out this gorgeous corner of Victoria - the coastline either side of Cape Schanck Lighthouse (one of the oldest active lighthouses in Australia) is stunning, as are the surf beaches, especially nearby Gunnamatta. And if it is views you are after - drive up to Arthur's Seat before taking the winding road back down and stopping off at various lookouts along the way. On a good day you can make out Melbourne's skyline looking very otherworldly and mystical as it looms up out of the water across the bay.

Lovely decorated interior in an unfortunate shopping strip in Red Hill…read more The food was very good. Though by the look of the place and menu item descriptions it may surprise you that they are heavily asian influenced. Not a bad thing, just seemed an odd fit. My co-diners enjoyed their meals greatly. I had the pork neck which I found lacking in flavour and it need a stronger sauce or plenty more of the delicate sauce provided. The interior is French provincial with an aristocratic touch. I just wish you could pick the whole place up and move it to a better location. Driving into the car park and then walking into the restaurant is not the Red Hill experience you desire give the picturesque surrounds nearby.
