Our focus is bringing friends and family together, incredibly delicious (and fun!) food, creative beverages and having everyone who leaves the Fox & the Hen feel their day is better than when they came in.We do not seat incomplete parties, sorry.

We love Acova. We always have an enjoyable dinner every time we go there! The staff are friendly and helpful. The food and drinks are the best. The atmosphere is enjoyable. This was the first time we were seated on the bar side. While it wasn’t as wonderful as the dining room side, we still enjoyed ourselves and our dinner and have no complaints!

Grant was AWESOME!!!!!!!! Best server we’ve ever had dining out. Thanks for making our Valentine’s Day so special. Your energy was genuine and much appreciated! The lamb pasta put me straight to sleep soon as we arrived home.. a young lady came to check on us towards the end and held the door for us on our way out which really was the cherry on top. Thanks again! We look forward to visiting y'all again!
