About

Restaurant Foxy focuses on an open-flame cooking method that defines its entire culinary approach. Intense wood-fired heat transforms seasonal market produce into complex dishes while imparting a distinct, natural smokiness. The menu emphasizes raw ingredients sourced from local suppliers to ensure maximum freshness across every plate. Guests observe the preparation process as the live fire serves as the primary heat source for both proteins and vegetables. Every component of the meal benefits from controlled char and caramelization techniques developed through direct flame contact. This methodical integration of traditional grilling practices and modern market sensibilities produces a focused, ingredient-driven menu. The resulting dishes prioritize deep textures and earthy profiles that highlight the elemental nature of the cooking techniques used throughout the facility.

Incredible food, drinks & staff. If you are only 2, sit at the bar, the experience is great, super friendly & excellent service.

My wife & I flew in to & were in Montreal for one night before heading north for vacation. My wife, always spot on with her due diligence, made last minute reservations for bar seating. We could not have dined at a better restaurant…the drinks, the food, the atmosphere, the staff. All fantastic. We sat at the bar & Sabrina mixed some wicked good cocktails & her wine recommendations to pair with our meal were spot on. She was witty, conversing & engaging, as was a'friend of the bar' sitting adjacent to us. The owner was present & leading by example, working alongside her staff. We had a moment to chat with her & extend a thank you for the wonderful experience. Gracious & humble she was. Not a recommended dining experience; but a must do dining experience.

We were disappointed with our visit to Foxy. We found the dishes to be quite expensive considering the quality & complexity of what was served. The total bill came to nearly $200 for two people, & we didn't even order any drinks. On top of that, we were still hungry when we left. In our opinion, the price was not justified. We do not recommend this restaurant.

I feel this place is overrated. Menu is hard to understand, we had to look up most of the items online & asked the server several questions. Anyway, had the chips & dip only because I just wanted a drink after dinner. These are veggie chips, very thin.. & taste like leaves. I didn't enjoy them at all. My friend had the carpaccio & said it was good. I've been here before & struggled with the menu then too.. If you really want to try this place, I suggest you research the menu before coming & see pictures. I think it's one of those restaurants that people will either really like, or dislike.

Lede to this review: our waiter was dreadful.
He abandoned us for half an hour at a time. He spent 5 full minutes consulting with a couple 3 tables down over their wine selection. The table to our left spent 35 awaiting their check after requesting it.
All told it was 30 minutes from being seated until our drinks arrived.
After that we were treated to additional attention from the hostess who was able to fill in gaps for her flailing colleague.
Service aside. The food was delicious!
We enjoyed an appetizer of the oysters, followed by the'radicchio' (a lovely salad complemented with purple & golden beets), the cavatappi (fantastic mushroomy, cheesy goodness), cauliflower (a bit austere, wouldn't order again), & the halibut (pictured; featuring a delectable dashi buttermilk sauce).

Délicieux! Super bon service. L'accompagnement du magret était une des meilleures assiettes que j'ai mangé. Les drinks un peu cher comparé à ailleurs pour des classiques, mais sinon côté nourriture le rapport qualité prix y ait (dispendieux mais on mange vraiment bien!)
