It was our first time dining there. The service was wonderful. We made reservations and we were seating on time. The food was great. So many choices for dessert. The waitress was very attentive but not too much. Definitely would recommend and we will be going back. read more

Enjoyed a business dinner here. Upscale but not overly fancy. Food was on point! I enjoyed their OLD FASHIONED cocktail. I had asked for a smoked old fashioned, which they thought they could do, but apparently no longer had their smoker accessible. I ordered a STEAK with side of mashed potatoes and sauteed onions. I had a brown gravy to pour on steak whichade the dish phenominal, exploding in umami flavors. We were a large party and service was great. read more

Really can't complain. This place was great especially for being in Rockford. Steak quality was great and cooked perfectly. Mash potatoes were fresh. Asparagus was slightly over cooked but very good. The drinks were absolutely amazing. Great service. Will definitely come back! Good vibes... read more

The ambiance was nice and laidback relax feel. Our server was super nice and even gave great tips on what to order as a first time customer. Cant go wrong with the shrimp Dijon appetizer sooooo fire!! We loved it! Couldn't get enough. The pizza was delicious but not really crispy it's like a floppy middle and doughy vibe. So if you want crispy only the crust was. My tortellini was super yummy. I personally didn't like the chicken at all! It just made me feel like it was packaged bite size chicken pieces, gross tbh. Regardless of the chicken the food overall was yummy hence the 4 star. Always room for improvement. The bacon wrapped shrimp was pretty tasty the shrimps were like jumbo and the bacon was nicely cooked giving the shrimp a yummy bacon flavor. I do think it's a staple here in Rockford so a must try for neighbors and travelers. read more

We were at Greenfire Fri 9/18/26 as we hadn't been in there in around 6 years. They said we didn't need reservations. We sat at the bar (as that's where we like to sit). They were very busy. Had 3 bartenders and the bar manager there. The lady next to us knew the manager, so she hollard for him to at least take a drink order. She lent us a menu as no one was even taking a food order either. We each had one drink, which was probably the worst drink I've ever had in a bar. My husband ordered a beer. We finally had someone take our order. Food was just OK. NO ONE asked us if we wanted another drink. Took forever to get someone to give us our bill. FINALLY got the bill. My husband just left cash as he didn't think they'd EVER get back to us if he gave them a CC. He did give them a $5 tip, just so they didn't think he'd forgotten about a tip. The service wasn't even worth the $5 tip. Our best tip at this point would be don't bother with Greenfire. Still can't believe how disappointed we were. We used to love going there for drinks and to eat dinner at the bar. Wish I could give a better review, but there was nothing good or great about our experience. Hope other people have better experiences, maybe just don't sit at the bar for drinks and dinner. Sorry, I couldn't give a -0- star rating. read more

Always a great experience. A little loud, and service is a little slow, but it's a winners

Read a couple reviews of this place so thought I'd give it a try. The place was like a gift from the god's. The food was incredible as was the service, and the atmosphere was the frosting on the cake. I enjoyed some of the best beef short ribs I ever put in my mouth, and the wife said her Salmon was cooked to perfection. A little loud but the quality of the food more than made up for the noise read more

We went on a very busy night but the service was excellent! Bianca was very attentive and professional with fast service as it was very obvious she was very busy! The owner stopped by our table and asked how everything was which was an amazing touch! I had the rack of lamb and the carrot cake, both out of this world! I will be back! read more

In town for business and someone local suggested this place for dinner. We decided to check it out. We were seated immediately upon entering, even though they were busy. The hostess was extremely nice and visited with us for a bit and made menu suggestions once she found out we weren't from the area and were first time customers. We had two waitresses, one in training. Both were great! They arrived to the table quickly for drink orders. We tried the mango refresher and the GreenFire margarita. Both were delicious. They brought out warm bread and butter for us while we sipped our drinks. For our main entree, we each created our own wood fire pizza. Mine had pepperoni, red peppers, and purple onion. The pizzas came out smoking hot and very quick, and were absolutely delicious! We would definitely dine here again when in the area. read more

First time visit for us. Wasn't sure what to expect. The atmosphere is nice and it's a large place. For sure make reservations on a Saturday evening if going after 6:30. We order the chicken tortellini Alfredo , the pasta bolognese and the bacon wrapped shrimp for an app. It was all outstanding. I don't usually eat red pasta other than my own, but this Bolognese was fantastic. The chicken tortellini Alfredo had such a good flavor and the portions on both of these were huge. They could've been shared between two people. We also got a basket of fresh baked, sliced bread with homemade butter. the shrimp bacon wrapped sitting on a mango sauce was grilled to perfection, my only suggestion with the shrimp for the Price,for two people make it six shrimp . fives an odd number and for dessert I did their homemade baked tiramisu, and my husband did their chocolate cake which again were very good. Our server Maria was attentive but not annoying and the food came very quickly would recommend this place 10 out of 10. read more

GreenFire offers something on the menu for everyone. We ordered the house salads, pasta and a gluten free pizza. Kenzie our server is friendly and attentive. She checked back in on us occasionally to see if we needed anything for our meals. We sat off in the dining area by the bar which was nice and you could have a conversation without other tables hearing your conversation. Safe room for dessert or take one home!! read more

The service was well above expectations. Our waitress was wonderful. She would get 5 stars on her own. The pizzas were very good. I had the trout that was on special. The trout was lacking a bit. I'm not sure what the portion size was set to be, but I found it quite a small portion. I think I may have thrown that fish back as too small. Other than that, it would have easily been 5 stars. read more

Amazing food and an incredible staff that far exceeds expectations. We will definitely be returning again to enjoy another great dining experience. read more

Food was not the greatest asked for a 49$ steak and was basically cook wrong and talk about the service horrible zero attentiveness to the table came around twice out of the 45 minutes. Place was not packed very calm ambiance was nice that a plus but food service unacceptable.

The food was great, but the experience was ruined when I heard an employee yelling at another employee. It was uncomfortable and distracting, and I felt bad for the employee who was being yelled at. Because of this, I couldn't fully enjoy the meal. read more

Great food and service. Tends to be a little packed. Cocktails are amazing, and staff is always friendly and welcoming.

Cost is a little high, but the food is amazing and we go there often, it is worth it!!

Not a ton I have had off of their menu. Not much of a drinker, but the first night I fell in lLOVE with the salmon spread appetizer. Since then my teeth have become sensitive to very hard things. I mean maybe most people don't like chewing on stones. I started asking for some type of bread to come with the spread because those tortilla chips are hard as nails. Even their "bread" that they gave me was really hard. Maybe it's the actual oven, if that's what they use. I did try a burger. I wasn't impressed by that either. If they would just have a less teeth breaking bread to send out with the salmon spread I would come back just for that to-go. read more

Really superb food and fresh ingredients. The bison ribeye (medium rare) was surprisingly tender and juicy. Kind of like a blend of beef ribeye and a filet mignon, with just enough fat. The sautéed onions were the perfect addition. Greenfire has great cocktails too. The mezcal old fashioned was incredible and actually subtle. Our server, Marlen, was very observant and experienced. She knows the menu and cocktails well and was able to provide details and advice on our selections. She helped make it a great dining experience, along with the expertly crafted food. Thank you! Our first time there. Definitely returning in the near future. read more

We lucked out picking this restaurant at random on our way to Northern Wisconsin. The DC Estate Wine, Deacon Red was delicious and full of flavor. I had the Braised Short Ribs which I could cut with a fork, the were so tender. They tasted great too. My companion had the Cheese Ravioli. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the sauce was thick and creamy. If you are lucky enough to be passing through Rockford at meal time, make time to eat here! read more

Went here with my sister and one of her friends before playing pickleball. The food was decent. I wasn't really hungry during that time, but I did order a steak since I was staying in a meat free house during that time. Our server was amazing, she was super quirky, friendly, and a little bit sassy! read more

I've lived in Rockford few 3 months now and Greenfire is my go to spot for everything. Friends/family come into town we stop in, after work drink, etc. Food is always great, specifically the pizzas (pesto or the mushroom are a must). The espresso martini or any of their martinis are to die for. Service is always great, no waits! Love the vibe of Greenfire and it's always busy which tells you how great it is. Keep doing what you're doing! read more

Been going to Greenfire since moving to Rockford 4yrs ago. They need a menu update. Very disappointed in the french dip, tasted like last weeks roast beef. I know they can do better. read more

Joined some friends here for dinner last night, and I'm so glad I did. I had a Caiparinha, which you never see on menus around here, and the scallops, which I loved. Everything was fresh, properly cooked, and tasty. Our server was pleasant and offered my friend some menu suggestions. We all ordered dessert- how could you not with their bakery selection? The berry tartlet was excellent. The cocktail menu is extensive, the wines by the glass menu is adequate but not nearly as varied. My only quibble is that my stall in the women's restroom was out of toilet paper. Restrooms should be refreshed more frequently on a busy Friday night. read more
