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.

This review is for the solo diners out there. I decided to have dinner here by myself on a whim; very glad that I did because it was a lovely experience! I sat at the bar, which is arguably the best seat in the house because from there you can watch the chefs prepare one beautiful meal after the other. I particularly appreciated how kind all the staff were with me, making me feel very welcomed & accommodated. I ordered one entrée (dumplings) & one main dish (kalguksu) & they were both delicious & good value for money. Thanks for the great evening, 9 Tail Fox staff!

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)!

J'y suis allé avec 3 amis pour célébrer mon anniversaire. Nous avons tous été ravis par l'expérience. La carte propose de nombreux plats que l'on peut partager façon tapas, mais on peut aussi se composer un repas individuel. Il n'y a pas eu un seul plat en dessous de nos attentes. La pieuvre était cuite à la perfection, dumplings délicieux, brochettes, tartare de boeuf, ... Le service était bienveillant, discret & sans aucune fausse note. Un des chefs a entendu que ma voisine a fait tomber une baguette & il est venu lui en apportez des nouvelles. Une bonne indication sur l'ambiance sonore plutôt calme qui nous a permis de discuter sans se casser les cordes vocales.
J'ai hâte d'y retourner :-)
