Reviews for FoxFire Restaurant in Geneva, IL
Server was very nice, but service was slow. They had open 4 top tables in the front, but the TWO hostesses refused to seat us... there, even though we had reservation, saying they saved those 4 tops for larger parties (we had 2), so they seated us atanother 4 top in the noisy back. The tables up front remained empty all evening (our reservation was pretty late In evening). Had Filet Oscar, and it was overcooked, dry, no seasoning, and not worth $50. I would go to Morton’s or Wildfire for a betterfilet. The bacon wrapped dates were excellent. My date had the prime rib, and said it was great. Not crazy about the winelist. Atmosphere is legacy steak house, dark and a bit dated. They had a specialty Old Fashion and Whiskey Acres rye option,so nice drink option there. It’s expensive, steak house prices. And yes, you do not even get bread with meal, which ispretty standard at steak houses, but I am fine with that. Read more
Great experience with an exceptional menu. Food came at a reasonable time. I recommend a reservation regardless of time or day.
Nice restaurant. Upscale and full of ambiance. The wait staff was very attentive and friendly. I got a salad and the ribs and... wasn't a big fan of the sauce. But the pomegranate martini was delicious, and the prime rib egg rolls were excellent. Someone atour table got a steak and said it was the best they've ever had. Read more
Drove out from Glen Ellyn with another couple. Priced just below a high end steakhouse like Morton’s or Gibson’s, the food... experience was almost comparable yet the waitstaff has a LONG way to go to complete the experience. Our server, when notmissing in action, was generally forgetful and inattentive. Dirty plates and empty drink ware stacked up on the table, disheswere delivered without the appropriate utensils, bread came an hour in just before our entrees, and we had to chase down ourserver after dessert to get the check (roughly 30 minutes from meal conclusion to finally getting the check…and without athank you). Did I mention I had to take my drink to the bar to get it garnished, as ordered? We tipped 20% anyway, if only notto penalize the other restaurant employees. Restaurant gets an 8.5 for food quality and presentation, and a 3 for service. Read more
Wonderful drink menu and it's extensive list, quite impressive! Food was amazing and to die for. My steak was a bit overcooked... for my liking (I order Rare only) but overall taste and texture was on point. My friend ordered the pasta and he enjoyed it. Read more
Food is delicious Mash potatoes need a little garlic and salt Good customer service Loved the ambience
The service was really good. The food was not what I would expect for the price. They had a live band which was nice. The surf n... turf was cooked properly but the portions a bit small. The cauliflower steak was tender and full of flavor. Chicken Alfredo andChicken Vesuvio were both ok. The brussels sprouts were disappointing, typically they are halfed or whole but these not servedthat way, they were flaked or broken apart and lost the crunch you would expect from brussel sprouts. The brownies ala mode andcheesecake were surprisingly good desserts. Nice place to dine overall. Read more
First time visitor. A small group for a moving away party. First time in "fancy" steakhouse in many many years . If you are... looking for a upscale, fancy, fine dinning, steakhouse experience, then this is the place. Foxfire is upscale. Nodoubt. Atmosphere and prices concur with that. Evern the drinks at the bar sounded exotic and upscale. Food tasted great! Thesurf in my surf and turf and comically small, but it tasted great . The steak was a prime cut and cooked to perfection. Aboveaverage beer selection. Wine selection looked great, but it's not my thing. Would I go again? Maybe. I enjoy a good meal,but at $50-$100 per person that's not and experience I need often. I can be nearly as happy as place half the cost, though theywill be decidedly more casual. Read more
