After years of working Downtown Indianapolis, Executive Chef/Owner Jake Burgess decided to come home and open an establishment that delivered the style of service and quality of food he had become accustomed to. FoxGardin is tucked away on quaint Main Street in Fortville.

Minutes to Geist, Fishers, Klipsch Music Center, and I-69, and only 25-30 from downtown Indy, FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a perfect spot to sneak away, while still being close to everything!

***FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a 21+ establishment. ***

    Upscale comfort food in a laid back atmosphere. Service was great and friendly without being overbearing. We went for a Sunday meal. I had the meatloaf which was really good and my wife had the special, breaded tenderloin with mash potatoes. Portions were plentiful and tasty. Small selection of draft beer, but all good local selections.

    Lots of good options on the menu! Would highly recommend the fresh table bread with house made butter and the shrimp for an appetizer. The waitress was very knowable about the menu as well

    It was great! No complaints. We were celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary. The food was delicious and Sam was a great waitress. There was a large party on the rooftop so our food was a little delayed but she kept us updated which we really appreciated, we weren’t in a rush. The bone marrow fries are a must! And we got a free dessert for our anniversary. It was lovely. We will be back again!

    Great place--much better ambience than Fishers. Food is always very good. Great service. A couple of fresh, grilled fish options would be nice e.g. swordfish, orange roughy, etc.

    This wasn't our first visit to FoxGardin, and it won't be our last. I had the pasta special, Pork Cheek Ragu and it was delicious! My husband had the Ribeye special and it was also very good. We tried the Bone Marrow Fries and they are insanely good, a must try. Tammy was an excellent server and took excellent care of us. We look forward to returning!

    We were greeted immediately when we entered the restaurant and quickly seated. Our server, Tammy, was informative regarding the drink and dinner specials. She expressed her favorites and we felt very confident with our choices. The food was as good as promised and the service was outstanding. If you are looking for a great, relaxing date night go to FoxGardin in Fortville and be sure you ask for Tammy as your server. You can thank me later!❤️

    We started with the jalapeño bacon beer cheese soup which is a hearty soup full of flavor. Entree was salmon - moist and cooked perfectly. Accompanied by cilantro lime rice- mild but good match to the salmon. The summer succotash was colorful and perfect for a summer meal. Would highly recommend. This restaurant never disappoints!!

    The restaurant does not have much of a selection on their menu. The noise level is loud,  the ceiling is high and is a type of enclosed outdoor space. The chairs are hard, and there is not much ambience .

    Spot on Meal and Service! We scored reservations for a busy Thursday evening. We were seated quickly on the back patio, which was slightly disappointing, but I guess that's considered "inside" dining. The ambience there isn't quite as nice as indoors or upstairs inside. Anyway, David was a very good server; attentive without being overbearing. He was a little distracted, but overall, it didn't lessen his service. Corn dip was spicy with yummy crisp tortilla chips. I had a filet which was prepared nicely. The garlic mash is great, and the steamed broccoli was fine, though I traded it for my husband's asparagus, which was heavenly. I took home half my filet and the mash, and it will be great leftover. Husband had the pork ribeye, which he reported was very good. We would have liked to have had a beer menu, as the hub is an IPA snob, but David waded through selections just fine. My espresso martini might have been the best I've ever had (wish they had decaf espresso). Overall, it was a very enjoyable meal.

    I usually do not order steaks out unless we are at a fine steakhouse. No one seems to have a good cut of meat or know how to cook it. I was very please that we were shown the cuts before ordering and the chef cooked my medium rare filet perfectly. It was definitely worth the drive and money. Also, our server (Tammy) was not only good at her job, but a very nice person as well. It was a great date night dinner for a couple of 30 years. We'll be back.
