About

9 Tail Fox delivers a focused exploration of Korean culinary traditions through a menu defined by interactive tabletop BBQ and artisanal dumplings. Patrons engage with high-quality protein selections that are seared directly at the table to ensure precise texture and flavor development. The kitchen emphasizes bold seasoning profiles, utilizing fermented components and signature sauces to elevate the preparation of grilled meats. Beyond the grill, house-made dumplings feature thin, resilient skins encasing savory fillings that highlight traditional spice balances. The interior environment facilitates a communal dining approach where the heat of the cooking equipment remains the central focal point of the meal. This establishment prioritizes the authentic execution of classic recipes while maintaining a functional atmosphere centered on the technical skill required for proper Korean charcoal or gas-assisted grilling techniques.

Food was delicious, but in very small quantity. You will need to order at least 4-6 plates for 2 people. Cocktails (Suwon Mule), dumplings, & Kalguksu were especially good. (We did not order kimchi fried rice just because we make them at home, but the dish smelled amazing at the restaurant.) Carpaccio was so-so. Cuisine-wise, it is more western than Korean.

Great night at 9 Tail, we were 4 people so shared 5 appetizers & 4 mains... & each one was better then the last. Great ambience, excellent service too, & a nice cocktail list & wine selection that went well with the food. The staff were knowledgeable & explained the dishes, ingredients & the chef came by to talk to us too. Standouts for me were the oyster mushroom & porcini dumplings starters, & then the steak & potato & chicken mains. Definitely going back so I can have some of the other dishes I missed (& to try the other cocktails too)!

Très belle expérience! Très bel endroit, excellent service & cocktails. La nourriture était très bonne & j'ai adoré les mélanges de saveurs. Le seul plat qui m'a déçue est le plat de homard... Seulement quelques petits morceaux de homard, & beaucoup de tteok-bokki. Le goût n'était pas mauvais, mais c'était ordinaire comparativement aux autres plats. J'y retournerais quand même!
