I'll go 3.5 on the stars. When this place first opened it was awful. If you haven't been there for a while, you should try it again. It has changed hands and the new management has made this place an option. We utilize it quote a bit for business meals. It's not too loud. There is something for everyone on the menu. Could they do better? Yes. It's not Ruths Chris but they don't charge Ruths Chris prices either. read more

Food descent but pricey. Good service. Had house salad, Louisiana shrimp and BBQ chicken sandwich, they were all pretty good

FoxFire offers a great local option for premium steaks in Geneva if you don't want to drive to Oakbrook, Schaumburg, or Chicago. We have eaten there several times, and dinenrs are good - but for an awesome dinner go on Thursday nights - Foxfire offers half price appetizers. The last two times we have gone, we have gone on Thurs - it lasts til 7 and we sat at the bar, had 4 or 5 appetizers and a bottle of wine for a great dinner at a really good price. The shrimp skewers are a favorite - with these unique spicy little red peppers and pineapple, very tasty. Mussels are also good - the only complaint there is they need to include more toast points. Also has a Cajun beef slider that was really nice. Mushroom caps and beef skewers were OK, but instead I would try the ahi tuna next time read more

Run a lean waitstaff but relax in the very cool ambiance with reasonable drink prices. Pittsburgh ribeye takes you on the road to flavor town. Bang chicken is a great appetizer. Half priced wine and apps on Tuesdays. Our waiter was an class act and great host guiding us through the menu. Not much to complain about. read more

This was the worst dining experience of my entire life seriously. Had 6:30 reservations arrived at 6:25. Dropped wife off at door to get seated. Walked in and noticed empty tables inside and out. Wife was still at reservation desk when I walked in. They explained it would be a while if we would like we could have a seat at the bar. Sat down at bar for half hour. 7:00 o'clock they finally asked us if we preferred booth or table. Wife asked for booth across from cooking station. Sat down and ordered food right away because we had time to look at dinner menu at bar. At 7:30 asked if we wanted another drink which we did. Now my wife is a saint, very patient. At 7:45 she asked me if we could please leave. Asked for our waitress and informed her we will not wait any longer for our food and can we just pay for our drinks. She said that they were busy because of a large party in one of the side rooms, that is still no excuse for 1 1/2 hours of waiting w/reservations. We paid for the drinks and and tipped nicely because we knew it was not her fault. Never go back again! Also walked by side room party, there were 7 people in there. read more

Definitely fine. Wouldn't say it was great or terrible, just fine. My steak was blah, just meat. Good soup and sides.

Went here for a business dinner, food was good - appetizers were delicious, steaks (had the filet) were well seasoned and perfectly cooked. Wine selection and bar was well above average. Overall, a good meal. read more

My fiancé and I really enjoyed our dinner here last night and we would definitely come back again! We were sat in one of the booths that overlook the kitchen and our sever took great care of us. We were really excited to see that they had a couple of our favorite Oregon pinot noirs by the glass, as we just recently moved back to Illinois after living in Oregon for 3 years. We shared a couple appetizers (the Bacon Wrapped Dates and the Prime Rib Bruschetta), plus the Orange Roughy special and the Filet of Oscar. Everything was delicious! After we finished our meal, the owner of the restaurant, Curt, came over to introduce himself and chat. We told him how much we loved the wine and the food, and he surprised us by having another glass of wine brought to our table, plus the Death by Chocolate dessert (which was to die for, by the way), at no cost to us. It was very generous of him and it made our night! Thanks for a wonderful date night, FoxFire! read more

Went here for NYE and they were having some problem with their taps so no tapped beer was available which was a bummer. My cajun prime rib sandwich was ok and the wife's napa chicken dish was...chicken with grapes. For the price, would probably not be back but was a nice ambiance read more

Food quality has gone downhill over the last few years but the service is still very good. Had a steak salad that had absolutely no flavor...even after adding salt! Very disappointing because we used to love this place! read more

Great food and service was excellent. We really enjoyed ourselves very relaxing atmosphere.

Sat at the bar on a weekend afternoon with some friends while we waited for a wedding reception to begin at another location. We split some appetizers and enjoyed some drinks. We found the place very nice and the service very good. read more

Great soups, decent entree, horrible service. Waited 10 minutes for a desert menu, 10 more minutes to decide we didn't want to wait, then 10 more minutes to get the check. read more

Went for dinner with my wife on Wed night and was surprised to have to wait 15 mins. No problem. We had a drink at the bar and were seated in under 15. Servers, host & bartender were very nice. We had a couple of beers prior so no apps. Had french onion soup and salad with vodka vinagrette which were very good. We both ordered ribeyes and shared a side of mushrooms which were excellent. The steaks had great flavor but were cooked a little uneven-medium rare on one end and medium at the other. May have been because they were a little on the thin side compared to other prime steaks we've had. Overall it was a good experience but somewhat pricey. I have other favs I would go to first if spending that much$. read more

Excellent customer sevice, great music( they had a band), and wonderful food!!! We had the crab cakes, garlic mash potatoes, and Cajun rib eye. The crab cakes were amazing not an over powering crab taste. The rib eye was amazing not to much Cajun mayo and the rib eye was cooked a perfect medium well. Nice and tender and the bread was just as amazing. Our server Mandy was great and took perfect care of us. Curt the owner stopped at our table more than once to give us an excellent personalized experience. Over all fantastic experience!! read more

I had a business lunch here. I had the special of the day, a primerib sandwich. It was excellent both in taste of the meat, the layers with it, and the au jus. It came with a side. I had the soup of the day which was tortilla. Again, another home run. The only reason it was a 4 and not a 5 was without ordering a drink or an appetizer, my clients and my bill after the tip was $30. That's a little stiff for a lunch. read more

I went for lunch today with a group of 13 ladies. We were seated in the party room that was all set up and ready for our arrival. The room was spacious and perfectly lovely for our annual girls day out. Our server Kevin met us upon arrival and was very gracious and helpful. He served us throughout our meal and was very attentive. He was fun and personable and we loved him! We all enjoyed our meals and I especially loved the blackberry Brie burger! It was cooked perfectly to medium just as I asked. It was amazing! We passed around several desserts and my favorite was the peanut butter stacks ( I think it was called that) also the best tiramisu! I can't wait to go back! I know that's where we will be headed again next year for our annual girls day out! read more

We had a terrific first time at Foxfire. I learned about the restaurant from a yelp review of The Turf Room (reviewer said they prefer Foxfire). Didn't know what to expect when we arrived, but here's what we loved (and why we will be back)... Classy meets casual environment, live music (but not too loud), outstanding waiter (Kevin), gracious owner and absolutely wonderful food! Perfectly cooked steaks with just the right amount of seasoning, generous portions of vegetables and really yummy desserts. See you soon! read more

I ordered a Mother's day Fillet Meal for four (curbside pickup). I paid over $100 dollars(with tip). I received an aluminum foil pan with 4 fillets in vacuum seal wrapped and some kind of disgusting sauce that was really sour and goopy. Going by the radio commercials they were playing weeks before, I expected some kind of sides. I sent a message to FoxFire twitter and their reply. "that is what the order was for". I could have paid 1/3 the cost at Joseph's meats or even less at Reems in Elburn for better steaks without the attitude. I use to really enjoy this restaurant, I would have been okay with an apology too. But when you're trying to support local in this climate and they treat you like garbage, then they deserve to lose business until they realize the customer is why they are in business. Hope you can find customers willing to put up with bad food and worse service, I know I won't. read more

Had Dinner here recently and was very happy with the service and food. I had the Filet Oscar and she had the Salmon Alfredo. Normally I'm a sucker for salmon but she said she'd have me eat some of hers and to just go ahead and grab the Filet. Long story short both dishes were above average so was the service. Going back for the Salmon, for the restaurant as well!.. read more

We stopped in for a late lunch/early dinner on a Wednesday. There were only a few people in the place. I have to say everything was great from start to finish. I had the mixed green salad with peppercorn ranch dressing (a suggestion from our enthusiastic waitress) which was delicious. The filet was scrumptious and perfectly cooked. The au gratin potatoes were wonderful as well - sliced very thinly and not overcooked. The white chocolate raspberry cheescake I had for desert was my least favorite part of the meal, though it was very tasty. I felt it paled in comparison to my friend's flourless chocolate cake. So thanks to Yelp for the suggestion. We really enjoyed our visit. If I could give 4.5 stars, I would. read more

Great service at the bar, bartender was very attentive (which is more than I can say for most places). Great appetizer special on Thursdays (half price before 6:30 I believe). Great selection and they all were very good. read more

My husband and I went to dinner for our anniversary. The atmosphere was was good with a moderate noise level. We had the crab cakes and steaks. The food was very good and not served too quickly or very slow. The service was fine but we noted the waiter seemed mad to be doing her job.... Not sure what that was about. Overall we had a really lovely evening. read more

To begin with the booth seating it's the worst I've ever sat on, time to change it unrealistic to sit, the table in between the seats was at uncomfortable distance you practically had to sit at the edge of your seat (husband 6.2) The steaks we ordered were supposed to be medium (pinkish in the middle) The order came in and the meat was practically raw. The prime rib apparently was boiled, it looked like it too. When asked to cook it a little more as I was expecting and raw was out of the question, it came in the same maybe warmer. Waste of $100. read more

Foxfire in Geneva is top notch! 10++++! Great food excellent martinis and the service is wonderful. Ask for Heather C. For your server. She was attentive , professional offered excellent suggestions and fun personality. We will be back!! Thanks Foxfire! read more

I love the prime rib here. It's one of the best I've ever had. The appetizers leave something to be desired. Service is always an issue here. Always slow and boarder line rude. I would say go for the prime rib but don't expect anything close to good service. read more

Went there with a group and was greeted by a rude hostess! Ordered a filet and was way overly seasoned and overly priced. Had the french onion soup it had a pound of onion in it! I am not a picky eater nor do I leave to many reviews but if it saves people money and their time pass this place up. read more

My wife and I arrived early so our table was not quite ready. No worries we enjoyed a drink at the bar. I had their old fashioned which was excellent. Before my third sip the hostess was taking us to our table. Our waitress was knowledgeable and friendly. I ordered the steak and frites which was excellent. My wife ordered the lobster mac which was also excellent. We loved the ambiance of the old horse barn. I would have given 5 stars except that my second old fashioned arrived incorrect. The waitress later delivered the orange peel, cherry, and cinnamon in a napkin. Not a huge deal because I can drink pretty much any form of any whiskey any way, but it was a bummer because the original old fashioned was so amazing. Either way we will be back soon! read more

My favorite place to eat. Hands down best food in Geneva. Everything on the menu is great. The best Philly Cheese I've ever had.

Since we had made reservations, were seated immediately on arrival. Turned out the restaurant is surprisingly large and was not busy at all. From the very beginning atmosphere felt unpersonal, the wait staff was present but detached. The wine list is extensive, we found a good value. The menu lists a good variety: we ordered a cross section of the menu: appetizer, soups, salads, surf&turf, steak even pasta. The prices are hefty, but the consensus is that it's not worth it. Especially the steaks were not up to par. How can a medium-rare ribeye steak be chewy ? The menu boasted about how they age their steaks ? The pork chops were dry, too. Overall we felt rushed. From sitting down to leaving we spent 55 minutes in the restaurant. And the absolute topper: the bill included an 18% tip ! We were 5 in our party. Unusual ! read more

My wife and I visited on a Tuesday around 7ish. They were packed, even the outside patio. Found out that they have a popular special, surf & turf, and within a few days of our Groupon expiring. The Perfect Storm. They were not prepared for this crowd. No we had not made reservations, big mistake. They were sitting everyone and overloading the servers and the kitchen. We were sat outside where two servers were trying to meet the needs of nearly 18 tables, needless to say everything went extremely slow. We have eaten here before and have had good service and good food. My wife ordered the ribs and they were a little tough, but very tasty. I tried the peppers. They claimed it to be two peppers, actually two halves. Though the ingredients sounded good, they did not meld together well, I would not recommend them, try something else. Though I was disappointed in my meal, we would still go back. Reservations definitely recommended. read more

The food was very good! I had the Scottish salmon, my husband had the New York strip. However, I was really disappointed to be sat directly across from the HUGE open prep/cook station! Very noisy, unattractive, just NOT what you'd expect from a reasonably expensive steakhouse. Everything I've ever known to be in the back of the house is on full display at Foxfire. Next time I'll ask to be seated somewhere else and I'm sure it'll much more enjoyable. read more

My significant other and I visited this restaurant on Friday, July 18th, in celebration of my 50th birthday. Although neither of us had ever been to the restaurant before, we were THRILLED with our visit. He had the New York Strip Steak and said it was one of the best steaks he had ever had. I had the Prime Rib which was far more flavorful than I get at most restaurants. The service was also phenomenal. Everyone paid attention to the details, from the timing of the food service, to packing the horseradish sauce and au jus in my take home container. read more

Went for should have been a nice dinner. Received burnt rolls . Once the waitress returned told her they were hard and burnt. Said when they come form the bakery sometimes overdone- next batch was worse. Shouldn'r a restaurant like this make their own bread/rolls? Dinner came tuna burnt and risotto under cooked- rice was still hard. $40 steak was average. Should have gone to a franchised restaurant to get better food and not spent $135.00 for a dinner for two. Kicked this off my bucket list read more

I had heard great things about this restaurant, but we were very underwhelmed to put it kindly. The service was okay, a very nice server, but way too slow bringing out the drinks. The salad was so cold you had to let it warm up to be able to eat it. The shrimp salad was good, but nothing special. The chicken marsala was one of the worst I've ever had, considering it was a house specialty I was even more disappointed. Other members of the party ate less than a quarter of their dishes stating they were inedible. I didn't taste them myself but trust their word. And then the bill came........yowza! I don't mind paying a lot for a good meal, but I do mind paying a huge bill for a very mediocre meal. The bottom line for me is that the food is way overrated, there are much better offerings in Geneva. read more

My husband and I love this restaurant. When we're looking to relax and wind down from a tough week, we sit at the bar, have a few drinks and snack on their AMAZING home-made, Parmesan cheese dusted potato chips. Be careful...they're highly addictive! Every meal we've had has been amazing...a little pricey so we usually share some appetizers, but the portions are generous so it's a great value. We especially like the atmosphere. It doesn't matter if you're dressy or casual, either way, you'll be welcomed warmly. read more

Just got home after spending my birthday dinner here tonight. We have come before and really enjoyed the food, however tonight was really quite bad. Our waitress, I believe her name was Sam, was erratic, inconsistent and seemed completely unfocused on her job. She also whined and complained loudly about everyone and everything right in front of the whole restaurant. While eating all we could hear was her complaining about how she has been scheduled and that people there still view her as a rookie. In her own words she said she would rather they just fire her if they will always treat her like a rookie. Now her complaints might be totally valid-I don't know. But I certainly didn't need to hear her talking about them to her coworkers for my whole meal. My soup was amazing, as always. There is no better French onion soup around! My boyfriend also enjoyed his soup of the day. His steak was excellent. However, my dish, the frutti di mare was really just awful. It's a fairly basic dish and this place is steak and seafood so I don't understand how it could be so badly done. The sauce was flavorless and acidic. Like a can of plain tomato sauce. The mussels were atrocious - they actually felt and tasted like powder. The scallops could've been chicken they were so tough and dry. In my opinion, it's a sin against the entirety of seafood to overcook scallops like that. In addition, the temperature of my dish was all over the place. Some pieces of calamari were ice cold. Some pieces of shrimp were so hot they burned my mouth. After mixing the insanely hot with the very cold my whole dish was basically lukewarm. Extremely disappointing for a birthday dinner. Didn't even get a chance to finish my wine and pick at the noodles before our waitress came and boxes up my pasta even though my boyfriend was only halfway through his steak and I had plenty of mediocre food left. Big party at the back got all the staffs attention and we left displeased. Not sure what to do with all this leftover pasta in my fridge now... read more

Quite disappointing. Waiter was unattentive and lacked knowledge. Never asked if we wanted another round of drinks. Never asked if we wanted more coffee. Never asked about our meal. Over priced for the portion size. We won't be going back. read more

No frills review: Went on a dinner date and wanted to try something local. Ambiance was great. Restaurant was clean and cozy. They had a fire going and a live instrumental band playing at the front. Wait staff was friendly and attentive but not rushed.. Menu has something for everyone which is great. A manager or perhaps owner stopped by our table as well (as I have seen on other reviews) to ask how everything was and thanked us for coming. Food was delicious and came out promptly. All around great dining experience. Will be back. read more

My husband and I went here on a Saturday night, May 11th. We arrived right on time for 8pm reservations. After checking in, we sat at the bar a few minutes until our table was ready. We ordered drinks. They were out of the first wine I chose, so they gave me a comparable, slightly more expensive, wine for the cost of my first choice. Weirdly, the draft my husband ordered ran out also, so they comped him 3/4 of a glass. After this, I wasn't expecting a great night. Things quickly turned around, however. I ordered the lobster mac 'n cheese which was delicious. My husband ordered the prime rib special which was also excellent. The next time I would order that, too. Our server was great, friendly but not intrusive. All in all, a great place. read more
