still in Milwaukee and this time we are trying something new. I saw saw this place online (for a photoshoot) and I went to the address for the location. at first I thought it was was in a wrong place but when I walked in and asked, I was directed to the (Fox Den) everyone was nice from host to cooks to cashier. patient and elaborate about what comes on the items. lets start with their fries, one would say, its just fries, ( they are not recreating the wheel) but these were one of the crispiest and whatever seasonings they use with it automatically elevated it to a different level, and with their dipping sauces (Bang sauce) which is indeed Banging and (Chili garlic aioli) its a different story. moving to the Curds which were from another world with the Jalapeño Scranch dip were a match like no other. But the real standout was the Bollywood sandwich. You won’t find this anywhere else, and for good reason. It’s got two smashed chicken patties, serrano raita, pudina chutney, curry-caramelized onions, cilantro, and shredded cabbage. Sounds like a lot—and it is—but somehow it all works. You take a bite expecting just another chicken sandwich, and then… your brain kind of pauses. Like, Wait, what was that? The flavors are bold but balanced, the textures play off each other perfectly, and yeah—it actually tastes like its name suggests: vibrant, layered, and a little unexpected. Foxy indeed. finally I had to try their Bang!Burger. (Sometimes less is really more) this burger had meat, cheese, Bang sauce, pickles and minced onions. but all ingredient had a role in this burger, the beef patties were rolled and smashed perfectly creating that crispiness in them the bang sauce worked will with the pickles and onion plus the cheese was creamy and just blended in to make a juicy with every bite. I would most definitely stop by next time I am in Milwaukee and I am sure I would be trying something new next time. Those were suggested by the staff and I am...
Read moreI was downtown for a meeting today and wanted to try a smash burger that has been on my list a while. This is my perfect opportunity to try Fox Den inside Great Lakes distillery. I had the bang burger and onion rings. Sides are extra for $4 and don’t even include a dipping sauce that would be $1 extra which is ridiculous, as their prices are a bit higher than other smash burger places in town. If you are buying a side instead of having it come with an entree, you should get a sauce to go with the side. The onion rings are big and tasted good but needs a sauce . As far as the burger goes, it is a large size burger and lots of sauce on the patty. I think overall it was a decent burger, but I also think Archie’s is still better and cheaper. I do like trying new places though. Give them a go. I spent $20 for this. I would rate them 7/10. I think the system of ordering at the counter reminds me of a food truck, maybe have your servers wait on people or bring them their food instead of getting it at a counter especially for the prices. Put some more quality in your service and it might be worth a...
Read moreI recently visited this restaurant and, unfortunately, had a disappointing experience. I ordered a burger, but it was unseasoned and lacked flavor. I had requested that the barbecue sauce be replaced with mayo, but my request was declined. The cashier informed me that menu items can be removed but not substituted with alternatives, which was frustrating. I also asked for cheddar cheese instead of American, and that request was denied as well.
The customer service was poor. Despite the restaurant being empty and no one else in line, the cashier rushed me through the ordering process, which made the experience feel unwelcoming. Based on the lack of flexibility and inattentive service, I can understand why the place wasn’t busy.
On a positive note, the cheese curds were excellent—I'd rate them 9 out of 10. The burger, however, was a 3 out of 10. It has the potential to be a 5 out of 10 with better seasoning and customer consideration.
Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant due to the subpar customer service I...
