I don't even remember the food that just popped up in my memories because apparently, I never finished the review! So let's try this again. First of all, this place has such a dark, romantic, and all-around great vibe. It's the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to sit back, enjoy your drink, and take your time. The staff was doing their best to accommodate everyone and keep things moving in a timely fashion, even though they were pretty busy. When you're single, there's almost always room at the bar, so I squeezed in and ordered a drink I've been partial to lately. The barback had no idea what I was talking about, but no worries. He asked the female bartender, she Googled it, and she made it wonderfully! I forgot to mention that I like my drink served up, martini style, so I ended up having it with ice this time. No big deal because it was still made amazingly and tasted great. And while we're talking about ice, I'm the same way with my water. I like my water COLD, but I do not want ice in it. Then came the $10 burger and fries, and let me tell you, I was NOT expecting what came out. For $10, I assumed I was getting some tiny slider-sized burger, but nope! Out came this BIG ASS burger with a gorgeous pile of fries. I was shocked! And even better, both the burger and fries tasted great. I am so full right now I can hardly breathe!!! Overall, this was another great solo date with myself. The atmosphere was amazing, the staff was accommodating, my drink was delicious, and that $10 burger and fries was an absolute steal. Sometimes taking yourself out is exactly what you need, and this was definitely a date worth repeating. And the best part? Extremely affordable!!!

It was filling and the croutons were delicious. Drink wise, I went with the socialista and was pleasantly surprised. It was fruity but not overly sweet. For my entree, I got the steak frites and substituted the side for Brussel sprouts and got the truffle fries based on Jordan's recommendation. The steak was ok, but the chimichurri def made it better. As Jordan mentioned, the fries were a hit. Sadly, the Brussel sprouts were not as I had hoped. I was expecting them to come crispy and seasoned but they weren't. Overall, service was great and the food was just as good.

During a past visit, we had the opportunity to explore the upstairs area and spend some time chatting with the bartender. We also enjoyed the outdoor seating and came away thinking it offered a unique and inviting space. The wine selections deserve special recognition. Whether you're a wine enthusiast or just looking for the right glass to complement the occasion, Sasha's offers plenty of great options. We'd also be remiss if we didn't mention their sister property, Sasha's on Shaw, another excellent destination for wine lovers.

We don't like goat cheese so they were able to sub out the goat cheese polenta with cheesy grits. The cheesy grits were so good!! Bistro steak - good but it's not a must have for me. It came with asparagus that was tasty and potato pave. The potato pave was crispy but soft on the inside. For an appetizer we had the Spätzle dish featuring Emmenthaler fondue, nutmeg, and gremolata. It's almost like a Mac and cheese. It had Microgreens and nuts in it. The combination worked so well. It was unique and delicious. A great place to celebrate a birthday or anniversary. They were very thoughtful!

Lazy Tiger is a part of the Yellow Belly and Extra Wavy family of restaurants that focuses on…read moreinventive cocktail creations and seafood forward dishes. The restaurant itself is quite small and is located on the other side of Yellow Belly. The entrance has minimal space that looks to be able to accommodate 4 or 6 people if you're waiting for a table. Inside, the spacing is fairly decent for being a smaller location. I didn't feel too crammed dining and the 2-seater table was of normal size so there was enough room. We were seated right by the entrance with a curtain separating the area. True to its name, a Tiger statue sits at the entrance which is decorated in tropical manner. The theme continues within the restaurant. Lazy Tiger has a happy hour which if I remember correctly, ended at 6:30. Their cocktails are $12 during happy hour (rather than $14) and they have a selection of snack type items which you could have as appetizers if you'd like. We both got a cocktail. My husband had the human costume (gin, amaro, blanc vermouth, melon, gnartruese, malic acid) and I had the humble brag (gin, rhum, salted banana, forbidden rice, coconut, lemon). Both were refreshing and different but in a good and surprising way. We started with the nachos from the happy hour menu and added some pork belly per our writer's recommendation. I love pork belly anything anyway. The nacho was a huge serving! And it was very tasty with a good amount of crispy pork belly peppered throughout. I had the Morrocan spiced halibut served with couscous, asparagus, Spanish chorizo, tomatoes, pistachio dukkah. Halibut was well seasoned and prepared perfectly. We also shared an order of the vegetable fried rice and added some spam because I am a sucker for spam fried rice. It came with some chili crisps which brought the dish to another level. My husband had the tamales which he thoroughly enjoyed. I didn't get to try some but it looked fantastic. We ended up taking home the rest of my meal and the rest of the fried rice which have been devoured over the weekend. Service was fantastic. I love the vibe, I love the food!

Later I did see other guests arrive that were not fancy either, so I felt better. You could be fancy and fit right in, though. Angela was my server at the bar and she was top notch! Giving me time to review the menu but also jumping in to answer questions. I wanted to try a drink and the cocktails look amazing so I will have to come back to try a couple, they had a list of Spirit Free and I went with the Stappi Spritz. It was bright and refreshing with a bit of bitter and I really enjoyed it. So many food options looked good, I took a bit to decide and then went with the Starter of Oeufs et Mayo and would go from there. When it arrived I felt it looked like a dish on a cooking competition show - it was so pretty. Angela indicated a great way to eat it was to get a scoop of everything and put it on the LF grilled bread and that is what I did! So very good! All the flavors went well together, the burst of salty goodness from the trout roe and the grilled bread, fantastic. Even with so many other Plates to try, I will have a hard time not ordering those jammy eggs again. Extras included Crispy Fingerling Potatoes fried with rosemary and served with romesco aioli, they were good and a large enough serving to share. The rosemary is definitely part of the dish but I ordered with the knowledge that I now like rosemary. I also wanted to try the Sage and Fennel Sausage, they were in patty form and the order came with 2 and they were large. It was decent, I wanted more sage and fennel for my taste. Angela set me up with go boxes so I could enjoy my meal again as leftovers! Great food, great service. Can't wait to go back again!

We ordered five small plates and all were very nicely executed. -scallops: While these were good, they were my least favorite of the bunch. They were tender and the sauce was nice, but they were a tad small only came with three. For the price, I thought other dishes were more hearty. -mussels: They were cooked perfectly and had a savory broth that was great to dip the grilled bread in. -Royal trumpet mushrooms: These were recommended by our server and they were great. The combo of the rich soubise with the vinaigrette gave them a good flavor punch. -short ribs: We both loved the sweet and spicy sauce on the short ribs. The short ribs were thinly sliced and tender. Very tasty. -Cavatelli: This was the standout dish of the night for us. The handmade pasta and summer vegetables were so fresh and had such great flavor. Basically summer in a bowl and a generous portion size. We are both big eaters and 5 small plates felt like a good amount with no leftovers to take home. I will say the tables inside are very close together. So much so that I felt like I was in our neighbor's conversation and it was difficult to hear our own conversation. We did have a lovely evening at Little Fox and we would return for a date night or special occasion.

Was it strange to be some of the first guests to arrive? Yes. But it was also nice to have the full attention of our server who was great! He told us all about the specials and talked us through some of the drinks that he enjoys. Since I shared that I was not currently drinking alcohol, he made a few mocktail recommendations and I loved how he was able to "sell" them to me. I went with a class G&T mocktail and my friend went with a mezcal drink based on his recommendations. We also ordered 2 of the apps to just have at the table while we chatted. The mocktail I had really did hit the spot and my friend really enjoyed her cocktail as well. The hummus we ordered witht he veggies was so good and we also had a potato app that was truly such a unique flavor with creme fraiche and walnuts. Honestly, it was so good I want to go back and order it again! I really enjoyed this HH and know that I need to visit again for the actual dinner menu one day.
