Mr & Mrs Fox

my mains’ fish was raw !
That pretty much sums up my experience at Mr and Ms Fox. No matter how interesting the atmosphere and entrée were. You should never serve raw!

Despite sounding more like a Disneyland ride, Mr. and Mrs. Fox delivers a palate changing roller coaster ride.
During their soft opening, 50 percent off the entire menu plus free alcohol drink. @professorsavings approved.
Known as a one shot wonder, I had a slight splash of gin mixed with some fruity fruity mix. Refreshing my palate, the sea sweet oyster opened my appetite along with plump shrimp with ample roe.
The main actor did not disappoint.
Soft bun hugged moist beef cooked just right on medium rare. Slight nutty notes from melted cheese finished the perfect bite.
Fries were on point but needed a bit of seasoning. Imported premium ketchup makes you do the sweet and tart tango. Hip hop through steel doors and be welcomed by a wooden interior that is inviting, modern, and hip.

I’ve been here a couple of times and although it’s a little pricy, the food is pretty good and the interior of the restaurant is very vintage and chill! The upstairs I believe is reservation only and has more of a fine dining type menu. The downstairs is for casual lunch/​dinner with tapas and other small plates. I’ve gotten the burger a couple of times which is a pretty filling meal for the price! The seasoned fries are delicious as well! The aged steak here is also pretty good!
Usually for lunch they have a set menu where you and mix and match a starter and a main. They also have outside seating as well. I’ve never been here for HH or drinks but I always see plenty of people here enjoying drinks and snacks after work!

I came here over the holidays to check out the area with a friend. We stopped into Mr & Mrs Fox for a drink in the happy hour time frame.
Mulled wine was our drink of choice! I kind of like they even had mulled wine as an option. It was brewed up that day and full of spices and Christmas cheer!
Mr & Mrs Fox is a large, welcoming, modern space with a friendly staff and a welcoming warm wood feel. Clearly popular on the hip Tong Chong Street, this spot is probably one of the best spots in that area based on design and look alone. Lots of outdoor seating that is more geared toward the drinking crowd versus the dinner crowd.
Although we only had drinks, I would go back for a meal… because the mulled wine was that good!

Friendly staff, great beer, food and music. The burger was excellent. Good value too.

After a few months of silence on Unilocal,I am glad to come back with a positive review! I went for dinner with three more to Mr & Mrs Fox last night and I was not disappointed. The expectations were high though.
The atmosphere and the deco are great — Mr and Mrs Fox doesn’t lack space (being its own landlord helps). It’s open, sleek and welcoming. We went straight to Mrs Fox for food (second floor). So now, on to the food — we ordered a few oysters and the Iberico pork collar. As starters, they were good, the oysters not very strong in taste and rather small and the meat was well paired with the other ingredients, although a rather small portion. For mains we ordered the T bone and snapper with two sides, broccoli and fries. It was all gone in a matter of minutes… the T bone is actually not as big as we expected so we went on to order the 16oz bone in streak steak. That was probably the star on the table — the meat so tender and fatty, it was melting in the mouth. I’d normally go for medium rare of medium, but the guys ordered this one rare which turned out to be a oh yes!
At that point, I was pretty much full, having indulged myself on the cheesy broccoli side which happened to be in front of me and wow, even though it’s a side, it is ‘the side’ you have to order! Combined with the meat, really great.
Two of us ordered dessert, nicely presented but I can’t comment as I didn’t try.
All in all, its a nice place, a little far from our neighbourhood, but surely one we will visit from time to time. I don’t think the prices are ridiculous, compared to other places of the like in Hong Kong. For all that we paid around 1500. The staff is helpful and it is a truly nicely done place. Yes, I do recommend!

First impressions: friendly waitstaff, very large space, prices are a bit high for quarry bay, even given the area (right near Newsroom and other restaurants).
Good environment. Waiter was transparent about the fact that some of the portion sizes are not very large.
Good lighting due to all of the windows. Next time I will go to the second floor for the view, though not expecting a tremendous view since it’s across from tall office buildings.
Good interior design. Everything looks new.
I’ll walk you through my experience (in case you’re interested, if not feel free to skip to my one line summary below)
Ordered a latte and it came in a glass mug — I’m not especially fond of these glass mugs, since whatever’s inside always seems to cool down much faster than ceramic mugs. However, the latte itself was good. Flavor is great — temperature could be a bit warmer. They give you individually packaged sugar cubes. sanitary, but not entirely environmentally friendly. I’d personally prefer just a tub full of sugar, but I’m nit-​picking.
Place is filling up, though there are still a few tables left on ground floor and it is prime lunch/​brunch hour. In their defense, they just opened. During the working week, I’d expect this place to be packed since it’s so close to Swire’s offices.
Ordered the pressed reuben sandwich. This was VERY good. Just the right amount of spice, oil, salt, corned beef and cheese (gruyère). AND, it was served on a beautiful piece of marbled wood — they were either really trying to impress me (I’m a woodblock printmaker-​someone who appreciates this sort of thing) or they got lucky ;). Either way, it definitely added to the experience.
I don’t usually give out 5 stars, but this deserves an exception.
Pros:
Great lighting, friendly staff, great décor (esp. the wood my food was served on) and an outSTANDing reuben sandwich. I’ll be coming back with friends.
Cons:
A bit pricey for Quarry Bay, but great when you’re trying to impress someone :)

The restaurant is still in soft launch, so one would expect some rough edges in service and facilities. During this period (until Sept), it is half price, so quite good value. However, the portion is quite small, it would seem to be expensive if at full price.
The food quality is quite good though. The lamb sausage was flavourful. The pork bun quite juicy.

Just got an early taste of Swire’s latest gig on a «multi-​level dining experience».
For one thing that Swire always does right, it’s the décor and the vibe. And in Mr & Mrs Fox that’s excellent. You feel right sitting at any spot of the restaurant. The main bar at the center of the restaurant is very welcoming too.
The other thing that earned a star in my mind right away — they haven’t had the liquor license yet, so instead of telling the customers «sorry, but please order one of these mocktails.» like all other restaurants would do, they offered complimentary drinks upon ordering food. Well, certainly, we saw some freeloaders there, but the arrangement actually made us felt very good. They were only serving one red wine (pinot noir, which is my favorite but a lot of people will find it too pale) and one white wine (sauvignon blanc). But you could also pick three different kinds of Young Master ales on tap (hipster alert), or get one of their special cocktails.
The food was very good, despite the fact that the choices were very limited. The ground floor is supposed to be the «bar area» and the second floor as the proper sit-​down restaurant and the third private kitchen (and hence, «multi-​level dining experience»). So we essentially ordered all most of the menu items here to feed a table of 6.
The assorted hams and assorted cheese were very good. You could tell that it’s not a «menu placeholders», but both carefully selected that ham lovers and cheese lovers would like to see and taste. I liked the deep fried squids and mussels too.
Staff were nice and friendly — definitely giving you the Soho/​expats vibe, as more and more restaurants in Quarry Bay are doing as well.
The two hiccups (few menu items + freeloaders occupying the table) will most likely be resolved by grand opening, and I’d definitely come back again for a proper dining experience.
