The city’s most thrilling new restaurant is a narrow, 28-seat spot on Avenue A where kangaroo’s the name of the game.
Foxface Natural opened last spring, and its wild-and-woolly menu has been polarizing. Most critics and diners have loved it, but some have been quite negative, likening dishes to “elaborate jokes.”
In addition to kangaroo tartare, there is sometimes soup of wild snapping turtle and gooseneck barnacles.
But there’s no exoticism for its own sake, as was the case at the ghastly, long-gone New Deal in the West Village, which served lion and giraffe. Foxface Natural serves no endangered species; its shtick is sustainability, explained owner Ori Kushnir, who runs the house with his life partner Sivan Lahat.

Uh, oh. Have the eco-wackos seen this yet?
My dogs loved dog food with kangaroo ingredients.
I actually find that a turn off. Here come all the ones who make the jokes about it’s delicious on the barbeque or something but no thanks.
Let’s not give them any ideas, now!
But do they serve kangaroo tail soup?
600 tons of carbon for a Roo-Burger. The “Greta Burger”.
Which brand?
They were serving kangaroo at a busy restaurant in far left progressive Stowe, VT back in the late 90’s...get with the program, NY!
If I’m not as hungry, I will inly eat a wallaby.
Remember years ago when the rumor started that Jack in the Box was accused of using kangaroo meat and everyone was horrified??
My dad bought cases of that soup at an auction when I was in grade school. We had Kangaroo Tail Soup for months. It tasted like Campbell’s Scoth Beef Barley, only no barley. Just potted chunks of meat in a thick gravy. Pretty good really.
I guess the category is “Things that Jump/Hop.”
For the record, “Sivan Lahat” appears to be an XX.
I’d eat me some kangaroo!
I’m NOT eating Skippy. 🥺
I’ve already got the tag line: :-)
Kangaroo: It’ll put a spring in your step! :-D
...I’ll show myself out. :-[
Nothing better to do for new yorkers.
” Hey, my life is complete. I just ate me a kangaroo. Now let me get killed on the subway.”
Skippy would cheerfully kick you to death, given half a chance. If he’s in a good mood, he’ll just drown your dog by holding it under water. Better to take him out before he takes you out
