    “This is for delivery. Pizza is all about what one prefers and or grew up on. We prefer New Haven. This is the best we have found on the North Shore. Thin crust cooked perfectly. The food traveled well (Door Dash). A generous amount of toppings, very good sauce. Will have again.”

    “Vegetarians can relax and order anything off the menu – – everything will be delicious and beautifully presented. The mocktails are much appreciated with their inventive flavors and the entire environment is lovely and soothing. We had a party of seven and everyone went home happy except my giant Nebraska-raised meat-loving husband who was simply content. Well, you can’t please all the people all the time, but you sure as heck are pleasing this vegetarian who is so so tired of steak restaurant after steak restaurant where I’m desperately seeking the sides menu for something to nibble on. Now this review seems to have turned into an analysis of a modern marriage, but that’s OK because we all got to eat, right? And it’s so nice to find fellow meat avoiders on the North Shore. Keep up the great work, Spirit Elephant! We’ll be back for Mother’s Day.”

And, to make it even better, while our food took longer than expected to arrive, the wonderful staff comp'd part of our check. They went above and beyond, even though we didn't complain to them about the wait. You can tell they have high standards for their restaurant. They've won my loyalty! Highly recommend.”

Mark Salmon enthusiastically and creatively arranged for my friend and I to dine outside (our request), despite the rain. We stayed dry under umbrellas and thanks to Sandra, our amazing waitress, we celebrated my birthday with fine food (impressive menu choices and food presentation) and great company! It was my first time dining at 501 Local and this restaurant met and exceeded my high standards in every way! It is a hidden gem and our new fav restaurant. Highly recommend!!”

The food was delicious, beautifully displayed and enjoyed in our group. Yanna was excellent to work with. What really made the afternoon unforgettable was the use of the barbershop area for the murder mystery experience -it added such a fun and unique atmosphere. Every detail was handled perfectly, and our guests are still talking about what a memorable party it was. I highly recommend this place for a venue for any occasion.”

Some of my favorite dishes are the Lobster Dynamite, Burrata Fig Mostarda, Taleggio Flatbread, Little Gem Salad with Kefta Kebab, Basic Burger, Foxtail Paella, and Lamb Cassoulet. I’ve also tried just about everything from the raw bar, and it’s all been spectacular! The Tahini Dream bars are a must have dessert. The artwork throughout the restaurant is gorgeous and adds so much character to the space. The hostesses and waitstaff deserve a special mention as well. They’re always warm, welcoming, and attentive, making every visit feel special. I can’t recommend Foxtail enough! With so many great dishes to choose from, and the beautiful surroundings it’s a place I genuinely look forward to returning to.”

The cocktails were delicious, and the staff made it extra special by bringing my sister some shots with a sparkler for her bachelorette. Since her bridal party was small and the guitar shots were too much for our group, this thoughtful gesture made the day even more memorable. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great drinks and a fun atmosphere!”
