Pressley said he was initially going to open a brick-and-mortar restaurant on South First Street but shifted gears to the new concept, allowing him to cook and be part of the dining experience.
"We wanted to provide a space where people could go and enjoy an immersive dining experience as a small but powerful collective," Pressley said in a release. "We wanted to create a place where it truly was a special occasion, no matter if you go once a year or once a week."
Foxtail boxes are available through Assembly Kitchen, the meal delivery service from the team behind Comedor, for $150 per box.
