My friend (non gluten free) and I (Coeliac) just had dinner at Fox in the Box ... and it was yummy!! Both of us thoroughly enjoyed it. Excellent food and it was so nice to be able to go to a restaurant and order anything from the menu (we had crumbed calamari, chicken parmigiana and a vanilla slice with ice cream for dessert) and I didn't have to ask about cross contamination or quiz the waitress about whether there was gluten in my meal ... great food, great service, great company, great night! Will def go back!
Amazing food! So very tasty! So lovely to find such a gem where we could eat everything on the menu and for it to be sooooo flavoursome, the chef is amazing to have come up with such wonderful food that’s intolerance friendly as well - I’m in awe! Even those without intolerances would rave about the food - it’s that good! So thrilled to have found this place. Needs to move to Perth though ;)
Excellent service. They knew we wanted to share the soup so they placed in 2 bowls, which made the whole dining experience easier and more enjoyable!The food were served in large portions so valued for money. Food tasted not bad too.

We’ve been waiting to eat here for quite a while and finally got to have lunch. We ordered the pie of the day (steak), salt and pepper calamari, and slow cooked lamb salad, these were enough to fill 3 stomachs.
The pie of the day was quite filling, the mince inside was a little bland however it was better with the ketchup. The crust was good, no complaints, not overly crispy or flakey and definitely didn’t fall apart. Overall it was pretty good and filling.
Salt and pepper Calamari was amazing! There was a heaped amount of calamari and came with three dipping sauces so definitely worth what you pay. The calamari wasn’t over cooked and ended up being a favourite to share with everyone.
Both dishes above came with shoe string fries and a moderately sized salad. The fries were crisp and delicious, a nice touch to everything and the salad was just the right amount, not too much that you can’t finish.
I love a salad but I’m always scared to order them in case I don’t like them, either because they’re bland or have too much vinegar. The lamb salad had a nice aioli dressing and the salad to meat ratio was surprising, there was quite a decent amount of meat (again, bang for your buck). The slow cooked lamb had crunchy and soft parts that were enjoyable and most importantly never dry. Definitely a highlight of this meal.
The atmosphere was comforting and home-y, a nice dining place and the service was terrific!
Delicious food, lovely service. Amazing to have somewhere I can eat safely. The food is very tasty - the chef really understands flavour. The restaurant is kept nice and warm which is also lovely!
been wanting to try this place for years as they are always busy and the food concept seems interesting. was not disappointed. food was delicious and owner is friendly and staff helpful.
thank you for the lovely dinner we had.
A real treasure find for those with food intolerances (and their friends who want to eat out with them). A delightfully varied menu to select from. Meals beautifully cooked and presented with eye appeal as well as taste. Healthy servings to leave everyone satisfied. Take your time to enjoy and you’ll leave smiling.
Went out for a 40th and ordering meals for my wife can be a challenge. Tim (the 'intolerant chef') went out his way to make her dining experience wonderful; creating 2 completely off the menu dishes (he spent the time talking to her the day before to make sure all her needs were catered for). The dessert was so delicious I wasn't even offered a taste! It was the first time my wife had been excited about going out for a meal in more than 2 years. We will most definitely be going back. My Main and dessert were also amazing; some of the best ribs I have ever had.
This restraunt is fantastic!! The food is delicious and full of flavour (the pasta and parma are especially great!!) . As a person with an intolerance to onion and garlic, it is so nice to be able to order anything on the menu! The staff are so friendly and helpfull. I highly recommend this place!!
Great options for celiacs and people with lactose intolerance. Everything we had tasted great and found the staff to be very friendly. A restaurant closer to the city would be great.
We shared the calamari entree then the duck and penne pasta for dinner between 3 of us. Then we shared two desserts - the dark chocolate pudding and the lemon meringue pie. It was all delicious - i loved every bite. My wife was particularly on cloud 9 as she could eat it all being gluten and lactose intolerant. Seriously, she was glowing for some time after the meal. It was even the first time she had had lactose free ice cream with a dessert in a restaurant - let alone a home made one like it was here! The staff were very friendly too. We wish there was a restaurant like this at home in Brisbane.
Best Parma I've ever had (granted I haven't been able to eat one in the 3 years since being diagnosed as Coeliac). Even my pub-Parma-loving partner agreed it was the best he's ever had. Simple atmosphere, great food and outstanding service. My new favorite local go-to!
First time in Fox in the Box, and you have to give it a try! It’s the cutest little spot with amazing FODMAP - suitable for my hubby who has IBS. The service we received was so amazing and we will definitely be back again.
Wonderful and kind service, delicious food and how amazing to have a place with a menu that delivers on so many dietary requirements. Even purchased the FODMAP friendly 100s and 1000s!
Amazing. Worth driving a few extra clicks to get here.
Haven't been for a few years but it's still excellent!!!!
Had GF Parma. 10 out of 10.
Had Lemon Meringue. 11 out of 10.
As a GF Plus Other Stuff person this place is great. Fine dining food but relaxed casual atmosphere. No worries for me, no compromise for my partner!
The reason is simple, they know their stuff and it is fine dining level, great tasting food!
Tried the Fox in the Box's homemade *Butter Chicken sauce, *Red Thai Curry Paste and *Teriyaki Sauce - all were AMAZING!!! Made cooking a breeze knowing it was allergy friendly and great quality - and the curry was mild with lots of flavour which I loved. I returned the jars tonight, stocked up on some more and will be back again! Thanks for allowing us to fine dine all week FITB!! Can't wait to try new sauces! Keep it up! :) ps. also loved the (gf df onion and garlic free) chicken parma tonight w fries - absolutely delicious as always!!
The food was delicious, beautifully presented and the menu was full of choices I felt very at ease to eat anything regardless of being on a low FODMAP diet and having a corn intolerance. The waitress knew exactly what went into the food and was very helpful and hospitable. Would definitely come again and perhaps order some pre-made frozens too!
