The ambiance was very nice with a warm modern twist. Our server, couldn't tell you her name (never provided), you could tell the wanted to be anywhere else BUT here. The only point she was approachable is when she gave me the check. We ordered a plate of grilled chick, 2 orders of blackened chicken and shrimp pasta. The chicken on both were extremely dry. One was sent back, the vegetables were so over cooked they dissolved in your mouth like baby food. Unfortunately, we wont be returning. When the plate was sent back, our server never offered to replace the food or remediate the situation. She took it and walked away. Too bad as we always try to visit local restaurants versus a chain. read more

This is one of my wife's favorite places since we moved out to Yorkville. Casual yet upscale and we haven't had anything on the menu that we didn't like yet. read more

Being celiac, I always need to call ahead of time!! I called ahead of time to make sure they could accommodate cooking my meal separately. The owner knew all about celiac and they were able to prepare my dish separately. All of their salad dressings are gluten free and I didn't get sick. Also, FANTASTIC cocktails. Thank you to Mike and everyone else for going over and beyond. read more

Very nice local restaurant. Great selections. Gove the saganaki a try. It is better than what we get in Greek town. The burgers are excellent too! read more

Food prices have increased drastically within the last year. A full slab of ribs is $38 now! Please work on lowering your prices. You are driving away long term loyal customers. It has come to a point that many people cannot afford to eat out. read more

Great food and Kristen is a great server. Funny, knows the menu and makes the dining experience enjoyable. Maya at the hostess stand is a joy also. read more

We've been going there for years and the food is always great. There are new owners now and it's still fabulous.

This restaurant is an abomination. We walked in to an empty restaurant with almost all the booths open, yet we were sat at a normal table in the corner. Everybody else was sat at a booth. We also didn't receive our bread, and the food gave me diarrhea. Thanks d**kheads. read more

The food and service is exceptional! My favorite place to go to on weekends. Go early to beat the crowds!

I have never had a bad appetizer, meal or drink at the Fireside Grill. I personally love their calamari. The Reuben sandwich is to die for. The house dressing is scrumptious on salads. Some of the Pasta dishes are like no others. I promise you will love them all. The service is great and it is a beautiful place to have lunch, dinner or host a party. A great place for date night! read more

They have Great food, good service, nice atmosphere. Highly recommended. Good selection of craft beers.

Our first visit with 9 family members. Good atmosphere, excellent service, ginormous portions. Everyone said they enjoyed the food except for the meat loaf. It had a different flavor like it wasn't made with beef. It came with mashed potatoes but no gravy on the meat or potatoes which was basically our only complaint. We are looking forward to going back again to try some different entrees. read more

I have been going to this place for a very long time because it's great. And new management has made this place even better. I love the food and the service is top-notch. I highly recommend this place to anyone. read more

This is one of my favorite places to dine -the food is always great & the staff is friendly -good atmosphere!

A public service announcement- no masks are being worn by any of the staff. When asked, we were told by the hostess that they were following the owner's guidelines. We opted to eat at The Turf Room in North Aurora instead where they seem to care about the well being of not only their customers, but their staff as well. read more

This is a very friendly, well run restaurant. We were seated quickly and our server was efficient and friendly. All of our meals were very tasty and I was surprised at how large the portions are. Plus the meals included bread and soup or salad and some entrees came with a starch. You don't see that very often anymore. We all took food home and I'm sure that I'll have at least 2 more meals out of the Mediterranean Pasta. Will definitely be coming back to try something else from their extensive menu. read more

Ive eaten here several times and always found the food well prepared with big portions at a reasonable price. Great neighborhood supper club atmosphere. read more

Food was good and Ambiance was great. I felt a little pushed out to leave ASAP though.

Mixed feelings food was good but feeling like you've been taken advantage of out ways the good food They advised a pick 3 at 28$ with a list to choose from and the picture attached to this price all has an up charge I didn't see or get informed of by my waitress but she was sure to inform us of a up charge for splitting the meal?? You knew that one but not the others and the manager wouldn't come talk with us about it? we tipped well it might not have been her fault ‍lesson learned!!!!!!! read more

Great service, deeeeeelicious food, and a great drink selection! The Mediterranean pasta is amazing

Amazing appetizers and drinks! The peanut butter pie is the best dessert I've had in a long time!

We've been going to this restaurant for years and never once had a bad meal! Highly recommend the Prime Rib and the Diablo pasta.. all the Martinis are very strong, we noticed a newer waitress to the team Kim.S she was AMAZING!!! It was very busy Friday night with a wedding reception she was hustling her buns off trying to keep her area up.. very polite and energetic to say the least.. read more

I have not been to the restaurant in awhile and now I am going to make sure I go more often. Kim was amazing and as someone who spent over 10 years in the service industry, I do not get impressed often. She was engaging, and never once did my party feel rushed. She answered all our questions and made time to even connect with our table. He ability to make people feel welcoming is very refreshing. read more

Huge portion size. Friendly service. I had the grilled pork chops. Huge grilled chops. Very good. The menu is massive. Lots of really interesting choices. read more

The food was good and I had no issues with it. My server Kim was a different story. First, she forgets the soup I order. This was the conversation we had, can I get a cup of the French onion soup. Her response was you want a cup and not a bowl baked with cheese. I reply no just a cup of the soup please. When I had to tell the hostess that we like to see our server she came by and I explained to her that I was missing my soup and my bacon on my hamburger. Instead of just saying sorry and getting it, she goes and gets her order pad and response that the kitchen messed up as she wrote bacon on the order but didn't hear me order the soup (when she asked me about betting it baked). Second problem, the kitchen staff brings out our food and places by our table but no waitress to be found. We patiently wait and good 5 minutes goes by and she is no where to be found, so we decided to just serve ourselves the food. The other server who is taking care of the tables by ours takes the tray away afterwards. The other server visited her tables 4 times to ask bout drink refills, served the food, asked if they needed anything, came by to ask if they wanted a container. Our server, no where to be found. Had to go tell hostess we like to see our server. She then comes by and that's when we tell her about the missing items. Our drinks are empty but doesn't ask for refills. Had to tell her we wanted a container. I still gave her a 10 percent tip, but felt like I got robbed giving her that. Wish our server was the other lady who was doing an outstanding job. read more

Great food, service was good too. Had the shrimp and couldn't finish everything. The shrimp was plump and large and was a great choice for a big Sunday dinner. Always consistent food and Emma was very professional server. read more

Love this place. Little pricey at times, but good portions and great service. I recommend Fireside to anyone looking for a good meal and a good drink read more

I walk in in all my glory after a day at the water park. Wife ordered prime rib , looked good. I ordered French onion soup and the meatloaf which was delickass. The drinks were well put together , pineapple martini was nice and the sangria was very refreshing after a long day in the sun. Food wasn't salty or nothin'. Everything was quality. Waiter was on his A game too. Dudes a straight up Boss. read more

Fireside Grille - Prime rib, medium rare - American Near Me - Sugar Grove, Illinois

See all

We went with a rather large group. Staff was very friendly and accommodating approximately 20 people. I had the prime rib however really regret not trying one of the pasta dishes others in my group got. If they can give a group our size the service we got, we look forward to being there in a much smaller group setting. We will be back. read more

This is the first time to Fireside. Wonderful food and tastes. The onion appetizer was delicious as well as the filet that I had. Was not crazy about the Caesar salad dressing. We also had dessert, peanut butter chocolate pie was rich and delicious. read more

Been getting carry-out for this restaurant for several years now. The food never disappoints and the staff is helpful. Always recommend this restaurant to family and friends when they are in the area. read more

So let me start with this place is kind of back behind building so it was a little hard to find. The gps said "you have arrived!" and we were at a little motel....... Just keep driving past the motel it is there just further back. If you are going with a large group on a weekend make a reservation. We luckily did think to make one so we had no issue but they were very, very busy on the Saturday night we went. All of the staff was amazing! Our server was sweet and very good at her job even with us having a few odd requests, nothing we asked threw her off her game. The table got bread and whipped butter as our drinks came out and it was warm and yummy. We did try two cocktails there was a limoncello martini and a caramel apple martini, both we will order again when we come back, and we will be back. A few of us tried the baked French onion soup and to say we were impressed is an understatement. It was very rich and had the perfect amount of cheese melted perfectly. Everything we ordered was loved by everyone and I do not remember everything so here is what I do remember. The steak house salad was loved, 2 of us ordered it and both were very happy with it. Both steaks were cooked perfectly and the one person had the poppy seed dressing and that was delicious. We had 2 people order the prime rib and they were both thrilled. One of the older kids ordered the fries shrimp dinner and almost ate it all, the other older kid had a 12 oz steak and it was cooked perfectly and she said it was perfect. I had the steak house pasta and omg it was amazing. The steak like every other dish was cooked perfectly and the pasta and sauce were delicious. I will say this about every dish we ordered, each items serving size was huge! The pasta I took home enough for two more meals after I was full. Everyone had such a great time that as we were in the parking lot my husband started talking about what he saw being served to other tables and what we should try next time we come. Absolutely an amazing restaurant and we will be back. read more

We had a small family reunion on Sunday, August 13th and there were 16 guests. Our server was Connie J. and she did a fabulous job taking care of everyone. There was something on the menu for everyone. The prices were fair and the food was delicious. Most everyone was taking home some for another meal. Connie was so accommodating and that's difficult for a large group. We all enjoyed the experience and will come back again next year. Thank you! read more

Today i ordered The Reuben with French Fries , Saganaki, and an order of buffalo wings. Total price $29.13 Lets start with The Reuben. Creating a Reubens is truly and art form. If you cant deliver quality and taste do not under any circumstance sell a Reuben. Heavily melted swiss cheese over a nice thick cut of Corned Beef and Sour Kraut. Flavor was there however visual was not. Quite frankly it looked sloppily put together. Unfortunately the Reuben collapsed on me as i picked up the first half but that was due to the steam softening the bread. However i do give them credit for its taste. Fries were unsalted but medium cut. I really do prefer salt already added to my Fries but alot of places have been not adding them lately because people prefer different amounts. Next time please add some salt. Now the Buffalo Chicken were big but flavor was not there to be completely honest. For $6.99 you do get a hefty amount. The sauce wasn't quite there nor was the chicken. Soft and mushy drenched in sauce. I may be back for the Saganaki but not for the Reuben or Chicken. read more

Great food, drinks, and staff! Worth the price and such a nice step up from bar/pub food!!! read more

I would definitely recommend to anyone the food was good with big portions, friendly staff.

I give the food 5 stars. The waiter seemed to have a problem with us from the first sentence. I didn't know until later in the evening but he made a rude comment to my son. My son asked what the fish of the day was and he said, "The fish of the gay is, I mean, ha ha ha, the fish of the day is grouper." My wife specifically asked if the spinach was fresh frozen or canned. He swore it was fresh. When she received her meal we found it was in fact canned spinach. I've been eating spinach my whole life and have friends who own restaurants. It was definitely from a can. When we brought it up he argued with us l, then brought out sauteed fresh baby spinach that looked absolutely nothing like what she scraped off of her chicken. I'm not sure why but he was passively rude to us the entire meal. The flavor of our food, except for the spinach, was EXCELLENT! Just don't get this waiter on a bad night. read more

I love five minutes or less from Fireside. That's neither here nor there... I've never had a meal there that I regretted ordering.

We have driven by sooooooooooooo many times and finally had an opportunity to stop for dinner. There are booths when you enter, a bar area with some high top tables, but on a cold winter's night, the top spot is the room with tables near the fireplace. There was also a room to the left of the hostess stand that can probably be used for larger parties or private parties. They were previewing a new soup: smoked bacon, turkey, vegetable corn chowder. It had everything, was served hot, and was deeeeeeeeeeeeeeelicious. I asked if it might become part of a regular rotation of soup, I would come back for that. The Tuesday night special was BBQ ribs, but we were in a hurry, so we just ordered cheeseburgers. They were juicy, cooked to perfection, served with very good cole slaw, nicely cooked French fries,and a pickle. I would definitely return to try some of the other selections and, if it were a Tuesday, the ribs, you could smell them and they smelled wonderful. Fair pricing and it must have regulars and draws the locals. Parking is the down fall. You enter the parking area driving past a very seedy motel. Entrance is one way and the only exit is behind the restaurant and out onto a street. Take note of that, especially at night and especially if it is your first visit. We took a tour around the parking lot twice, trying to find a way out. read more

This is a hoppin' place with great service and tasty food. You wouldn't expect to find a place like this in remote Sugar Grove, IL, but it's there. This is my third visit, and the best one yet. Don't judge a book by it's cover. The building exterior is plain and deceiving, but inside, it is cozy and welcoming. The fireplace in the main seating area is definitely a focal point. The bar area is separated from the main seating areas by windows, which creates a more open concept, but keeps the noise level down from the bar to the main dining area. They also have a more private dining room, which can accommodate larger parties. Our server was friendly, on time, and always one step ahead of us with drink refills. She anticipated everything we might need and had it at the table before we needed to ask. The menu is full of variety so there is something for everyone. Steak, seafood, salad, sandwiches, pasta. . .all very good. To start, they bring the table a loaf of bread, served warm with whipped butter. For my entree, I had the Steak Bite Pasta - steak medallions covered with blue cheese, and served over linguine tossed with mushrooms and asparagus in a Cajun spicy sauce. It is definitely different and very tasty. My companions enjoyed their meals - Fried Gulf Shrimp and Petite Filet. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that they have a dessert tray so you can see the desserts before you order them. The dessert portions are HUGE, so we shared a slice of Carrot Cake. This was one of the best Carrot Cakes I have ever had - moist, chunky, and just the right amount of cream cheese frosting. Pricing is on the upper end for items like steak and seafood, so your bill will be on the high side if you choose those from the menu, but there are less expensive choices on the menu that are just as tasty. The only complaints we had were minor - the steamed vegetables accompanying the meals were overdone. And forgive me for actually complaining about too much chocolate. . . but the dessert menu was heavy with chocolate cakes or really rich, heavy desserts. I would like to see lighter, fruity or tangy options like key lime pie or berries and cream. Overall, I really like this place and will definitely be back for more of that Carrot Cake. 4 stars Visited 4/13/13 read more
