    Our reservation was at 12:45. We arrived at 12:15 The parking lot was full so we knew we would probably have to wait awhile. To our surprise, we were seated immediately. The brunch options were plentiful. My omelette was absolutely wonderful. My husband had the fresh berry French toast and he cleaned his plate. The server was friendly and very attentive. I hope to go back again soon!

    Went for a date night and have never been before. Restaurant is large but considering the size it’s not overly loud. Waitress was amazing, made great suggestions. Our food was also amazing! We had the smoke fish dip, grilled salmon with sweet potato hash and the grill tuna with whipped potatoes. Both of our plates were completely empty when we were done. Prices are comparable to any higher end restaurant, especially out at the beach with seafood. Definitely recommend and will go again.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our Valentine’s dinner at Brother Fox last night. I’ve been wanting to come here since they opened and we finally had the opportunity and I’m so happy that we did. The food is absolutely amazing and was above and beyond any expectation I had. We are going to make more of an effort to come to Brother Fox and Sister Hen in the future. Thank you Chef and team for sharing your amazing talent with Pensacola!

    The escargot was our absolute favorite! The frenched wings are just perfect , but then the foie gras.. it’s an intense dining experience but in the best of ways so much flavor and everything is plated beautifully. To top it all off, the drinks were incredible – especially the Golden Boy definitely a must try. Highly recommend Iron for an elevated and delicious experience.

    One of our favorite restaurants in Pensacola to dine. This evening did not disappoint. We were seated at a bar high top as requested. Server was quick to take our drink order. Excellent Woodford old fashion and very entertaining to watch the amazing mixologists prepare drinks. Korean wing appetizer is delicious but a bit messy. Hangar steak was yummy as were the scallops either risotto. Short rib was also a winning entree. Portions are generous and sides are always very tasty!!
