zero fox

another craft beer bar opening, probably not that exciting right? i mean we are pretty spoiled for choice now days with venues opening up all the time but zero fox stands out from the crowd for me. located in the wool stores along the river in teneriffe this small bar/restaurant is doing something different with it's food which is a big deal for me because i feel like we are nearing a saturation point when it comes to gourmet pub food and burger bars so it's refreshing to learn that zero fox offersjapanesefood to go with your craft bevvies!

what a fabulous place!! went for dinner tonight and definitely wasn't disappointed! the food was spot on, probably the bestjapanesefood i've had in a long time. the atmosphere is very welcoming and relaxed and the staff are super nice! not to mention the endless options of beer!! looking forward to returning again soon.

a friend and i went off for a quick lunch last week, and ended up at zero fox. mr. l. chose the teriyaki salmon on rice, while i had a serve of okonomiyaki, and chicken and avo roll. mr. l. was happy enough with his fish, which also had mushrooms, enoki and regular, and some green leaves. i was disappointed with my sushi roll. for some obscure reason, it had been smothered in a sweet but bland sauce! i have never had sushi like this, and i don’t want to ever again. as the menu clearly states strictly no changes can be made, i fear that it would not be acceptable to ask for no sauce. i am bemused by this odd addition to a sushi plate. my okonomiyaki was delicious, thank heavens. tasty and fresh, with ample bonito flakes and sauce. i drank a yuzu lime and bitters – delicious and refreshing. it is a pleasant place to while away some time. basically it servesjapaneseand korean-inspired dishes, and provides wine, craft beers and spirits. orders are taken and paid for at the window; dishes are brought out to your table.

spectacular food at a low cost. portion sizes are generous and perfect for sharing. so far i have tried sushi rolls, spicy bao, octopus karaage, onion rings,japanesepancakes. everything was delicious, the bao were some of the best i’ve ever had. good selection of beers on tap too!

i really like the concept of zero fox. what immediately stood out was the friendly staff and as a music lover, the charcoal drawings on the walls of notable musicians. the beer selection is good and the food selection is an eclectic interpretation of korean,japaneseand taiwanese. if you are looking for authenticity in the cuisine, it's not the place but the food and menu is worthy all the same.

in a great spot for after work drinks and dinner. all things considered not a bad little spot. cool selection of beers, when the waiting staff know what is on the menu.. and a good selection of casual diningjapanesefood. can be hard to get a stool/table though.

very cooljapaneseplace. order at the counter after finding a table and checking out the menu. the delicious food is brought to your table as it is ready. we had edamame with garlic , verge dumplings , chicken wings crispy style and a soba noodle salad. again- as with mostjapaneserestaurants- the wine list is limited and not great. so if you like beer select one of the many craft beers on offer. my sparkling wine was overpriced and not great quality- but it was the only sparkling available. our food was great though and the service was efficient and friendly. high and low tables outside. a couple of comfy couches too.

went there on a sunday for dinner and to take advantage of the offer to buy a large glass of beer for the price of a small one. ordered the large shashimi platter, the spicy salmon sushi and the spider roll sushi. the shashimi only had tuna and salmon and the tuna was really bad. it tasted like it's being out for long. the sushi was quite nice but the sushi pieces were really big and had a lot of dressing and cream so it filled you up quick. you had to order and pay for the food before you sit down, and the food came out relatively fast. it's a nice place to have a drink or two but not the best if you are purely looking for goodjapanesefood.
