Fat Ox

Chances are you will have to make reservations to get a spot at Fat Ox. This fine dining experience is curated with special attention to the drinks, appetizers and, of course, entrees. The cocktail (or "oxtail") menu includes creations such as the Desert Rain, made with mezcal, sotol, blood orange, fig leaf and lime, and the Spitfire, which blends tequila with cocchi, pineapple matcha, smoked jalapeño and yuzu. Both complement the house bread that is served with a light ricotta spread. The steamed mussels and veal meatballs make charming appetizers. When it comes to entrees, the Rosso Creste di Gallo is a stunning plate of pasta made with red wine, dandelion greens, duck sausage, mushrooms and huckleberries. Go all out with the 25 Layer Lasagna, or splurge on a steak. We're confident that whatever you try will leave you wanting to taste every item on the menu. Chef Matt Carter pays attention to even the tiniest detail, and it shows.
