"Those seeking a traditional diner should visit Fox Restaurant in Jacksonville’s Avondale neighborhood. While there’s often a weekend wait, it’s worthwhile. The interior features an array of posters, pictures, and children’s drawings. Offering all-day diner favorites like French toast, omelets, and sandwiches, many locals tout Fox’s southern-style biscuits as among the city’s best. Order the griddled biscuits for a delicious twist; this technique crisps the edges while keeping the inside buttery and soft." - Megan duBois

First time visiting, and it was great. Our waitress Alex was great. My wife had a bacon and egg sandwich with a side of sausage gravy. I told our waitress Alex I'd like an omelet and it was her choice. Food came out in no time, and I was very happy with her choice, which was The Dusty Hill. My wife enjoyed her sandwich, and my omelet was packed with flavors. Everything was great from the time we walked in until we left. It's a popular place as we were leaving. There was a line waiting for great food.

The Fox Restaurant was FANTASTIC! The wait is worth it if busy as there's plenty to see and read while you enjoy the upbeat music. The omelettes are themed and delicious! The contents are cubed for easy scooping and eating. I got the Greek omelette and drizzled the vinaigrette on top with home fries and it was delicious 😋. Chandy was sweet, informative, and genuinely appeared to enjoy her job. The manager was all smiles and respect in a relaxed way. The vibe is relaxing and great for conversation and family 10/10 will come again!

Food was worth the hype. It's so simple but so fresh and delicious. The service is funny. They are so care free. Whatever man type attitude. Don't expect to feel like your at a 5 star restaurant. Be ready to feel like your at your best friends house and he is cooking you some fire grub for the munchies.

This was my first time there and I was pleasantly surprised. This is an old style Cafe with a throwback to the 60s and early 70s style. You had booths down one side and on the other a bar with stools. Very reminiscent of the old days of the Walgreens that had the cafe. The staff and the waiters were very courteous. I had two eggs corned beef hash wheat toast and grits. It was cooked like I asked, service was fast. Excellent food. You can't beat the price. I'm going back again this week I think I'm going to make this my regular breakfast place. I tried to get there once before but when we got around 8:30 there was a line at the door, if there's a line at the door you know it's going to be good. I also like the music that played. 40s 50s 60s and 70s music 🎶. A big thumbs up to this restaurant 👍

The food was so excellent. The portions were so large and tasty. The service was wonderful. I felt right at home from the time I walked in the door. The French Toast meal was excellent. Their drip coffee was hot and flavorful. The omelettes were light and fluffy. Go give them a try!

This is by far my favorite restaurant in Jacksonville now. The staff is amazing, the service was quick, and the food was delicious with very generous portions. The decor was very nostalgic and reminded me of late nights and old friends. I ordered the waffle breakfast with grits, bacon, and eggs. Everything was cooked perfectly. I can’t wait to go back to try their burgers and dinner plates. An absolute must visit for anyone who wants amazing food and atmosphere.
