There is a parking lot in the back of the building. So was easy to find parking. Came on a rainy night, but the patio looks really nice with string lights hanging. We had made reservations online ahead of time. I had shared the grilled peach and burrata salad with a friend. It was large enough to share with 3-4 friends. I like how they used Arugala and in every bite had a crunch. Candied walnuts and crispy prosciutto had that sweet and savory combination. The entrees came with a choice of soup or salad and I choose to upgrade to a French onion soup. Was very cheesy with lots of onions. I actually wanted more of the bread that was in it. Ate the whole thing. They did give us a basket of bread rolls and whipped butter. For my entree I got the Herb Rigatoni and added seared filet tips. This is a steakhouse so had to try the filet tips. Otherwise there was the option to add anchovy, chicken, salmon, shrimp, ahi tuna, and center cut filet (same add on for the salad). The filet tips were cooked perfectly with some pink inside. Very tender and juicy. I cut them into smaller pieces so each bite of pasta had some of the filet. The dish comes with a ball of burrata and if you cut it up and stir it around in the pasta, the burrata will easily melt and makes the pasta very creamy. Pretty Large portion and had took half of it home. We had a great friendly waitress. We were a large group and gratuity was added on the bill. They were able to split the check base on how we wanted it to be split by individual person and 2-3 on the same check. read more

We came to celebrate after regionals with a group of nine at 7:15pm, and this steakhouse was a fantastic choice. Even though they have a formal dress code, they were so accommodating and welcomed us right in despite us still wearing our horse clothes. Finding safe gluten-free options for a large group can be tricky, but they have a dedicated GF menu that makes ordering effortless. My friends and I shared the peach burrata salad to start, which was absolutely delicious, and I enjoyed a glass of red sangria that was confirmed gluten-free. For my main dish, I had the chicken vesuvio--which comes with garlic mashed potatoes for the gluten-free version--along with a starter of tomato bisque that was also confirmed gluten-free. Everything was so flavorful and tasty. The atmosphere is super cute, and a large parking lot in the back makes parking easy. Our server was fantastic, and the support staff was on top of keeping our water glasses constantly full. Just keep in mind for larger parties that an automatic 20% gratuity is added for groups of six or more. We were too full to try dessert this time, but we will definitely be back! read more

Just want to reinforce that the food and drinks here are still consistent - even after a year. Tried the Basil Leaf Martini / Pinot Noir / Prime Rib Egg Roll / Creole Shrimp / Churrasco Skirt Steak this time around and still very good. Would recommend them all - albeit my husband enjoyed the Egg Roll more than I did. Adding to this review - We had Andres D as our server and he was great. Very attentive to us outside and a great personality. read more

I stopped into FoxFire Steakhouse in Geneva, IL on a Monday to try their well-advertised Monday burger specials (half-off burgers). Unfortunately, the reality didn't live up to the promotion. Pricing Gimmicks Yes, the burgers are "half off," but once you start adding basic toppings, the deal disappears. A slice of cheese is $2-$3, mushrooms are $2.00, onions are $1.75, and other add-ons stack up quickly. By the time you're done, you're paying full price anyway. Not too mention you're paying for 2 full onions at Whole Foods, might as well cook at home. On top of that, FoxFire automatically suggests a 22-28% tip recommendation--which feels ridiculous. If prices need to be higher, just raise them so you can pay your servers. Don't play games with misleading discounts and inflated add-ons. Quality & Health For a place that calls itself a steakhouse in Geneva, the cooking choices were disappointing. FoxFire uses canola oil for its frying and prep--a cheap, unhealthy seed oil. In 2025, customers are more informed than ever, and seed oils are not what you expect at a steakhouse. If they upgraded to beef tallow (like true steakhouses used to use), not only would the flavor improve, but it would also align with the Make America Healthy Again movement--serving food that's actually nourishing. Better Alternatives If you want a real burger deal, skip FoxFire and head over to St. Charles Place. Their steak burgers are actually 50% off on Mondays and cooked in beef tallow, which makes all the difference in flavor and health. Bottom Line FoxFire markets itself as a fine dining steakhouse in Geneva, IL, but between the hidden costs, unhealthy cooking oils, and overpriced extras, I can't recommend it. Even on "burger night," it's not worth it. read more

Been here a few times recently. Atmosphere is great, service excellent. Food has been average... from bland and tasteless to rich and overly greasy. Others in our party have enjoyed their dishes. Two non-food recommendations: 1. Address your MESS at the host station. Diners waiting, people to and from the bar, servers delivering food, all squeezing through one tiny area. It's super congested and uncomfortable for everyone. Glad you're doing a good business but this almost ruins the experience. Fix the flow! 2. Hooks in the ladies? Cost you maybe $10 to put a hook in each stall. We come in juggling coats and bags with nowhere to hang anything. So, you're asking us to put our items on the bathroom floor? Gross. An EASY fix. The space is very cool, with huge back patio. Could be improved! And if it were, we'd be back. But we'll look elsewhere. read more

Love Foxfire and KC! It's one of our go-yo places for steak. Food is consistently great and service is too!

I took a date to this restaurant and was thoroughly impressed. We were sat near the fire place with cheery service. The prime rib egg rolls were a hit. The strawberry berry margarita was refreshing and delightful. Will be back. read more

We had a nice dinner here on Valentine's Day. I messed up and made our reservation a day early and didn't realize it until we arrived. We drove an hour through a snow storm. They were very accommodating even though they were crazy busy and squeezed us in. We had drinks at the bar while we waited. The supper club punch was yummy! The food was very good. My husband said the ribeye was one of the best he ever had. Mine was top tier too! We will definitely be back! read more

This restaurant is in Geneva Illinois. Near the fox river. And let me tell you that they have some great food. There steaks are from Iowa and certified angus! I ordered a ribeye sandwich with grilled onions and instead of the Cajun sauce I chose to have Demi glaze put on my meat and every bite was better than the previous one. My side was Brussels sprouts and they were cooked to perfection. Soft inside and grilled slightly and they were delicious. There was an art fair in town and we went and walked around. A nice city and even nicer people. I would recommend foxfire restaurant to anyone traveling to Illinois. read more

Great ambience for sure! Our server John was excellent attending to us like we were Kings & Queens! Our every need was met and he was just terrific with my 4 grandchildren! Everything was so elegant!

Absolutely a sublime experience. Food was outstanding. My husband had scallops and I had the ribeye. Scallops were cooked perfectly. The ribeye is the best steak I have ever had. Flavorful, melt in your mouth perfection. The sides are equally spectacular. Don't sleep on the sides. Creamed spinach is so, so good. Maple roasted carrots are delightful. We spent the majority of the ride home gushing about the food. The food is that phenomenal. Service was outstanding. The staff is so polite and works well together. Our waiter, Chris, was fantastic. Attentive, amiable, and knowledgeable. Just an outstanding experience. Ambiance reminds me of an old-timey supper club. It's intimate and welcoming. We could not have enjoyed the meal more. Hoping to come back soon. read more

Went out for a ladies night after work. Everything by was great. Love the atmosphere and the staff were so incredibly polite & attentive. Food is a little higher than most restaurants but was worth it. You get rolls fresh out of the oven. I had the cauliflower steak with mashed potatoes- i know it sounds silly but it was SO good! The creme brûlée was soooo good too. I will 100% be back and am already trying to plan a date night here with my husband. read more

I appreciate the owner getting back to me. I was just hoping to continue to have lunch at Foxfire at a reasonable price with reasonable options. Many more places on route 38 and in Geneva that make affordable lunch options for professionals that work from home and appreciate the ability to get out of the house. The bartender lacks customer service and often disappears, making it tough to come back. read more

1st and most likely last time visit...chose this restaurant due to it's amazing reviews. Ordered surf and turf which was a 4 oz lobster tail and 4 oz filet mignon. I was very disappointed when entree arrived. The filet was super tiny, resembling a small, strip of meat instead of the traditional filet. I expected a lot more for $65!!! Substitute potato for Brussels sprouts that were overcooked/burnt! Very disappointing... read more

Burger special was great! Cooked to your liking. Great service. Wish they made more desserts in-house, but the tiramisu was very good.

Although, tasty... I ordered an entree Mac N Cheese for $12, should be a little more than a child's portion. At least you'd think??? Very disappointing and now need to make something else to eat. This is the first less than great experience we've had there. This was a take out order so I didn't see it until we got home, unfortunately. The photo is exactly how it looked when I opened the container. read more

Amazing place for dinner! Our server was phenomenal and was very attentive. We enjoyed our drinks (French 75 and a pour of Wilderness Trail bourbon). We got 2 filets, both of which were cooked properly. We were also celebrating a birthday, and they gave us a complimentary dessert, which was so sweet! Overall, highly recommend for a nice dinner. read more

We've been looking forward for weeks to trying Foxfire after hearing about its high-quality steaks and seafood, not to mention the wonderful warm ambiance and surroundings. The bar and bartender were pretty good -- though ingredients for one of the cocktails were out of stock, and 2 of the basil margaritas seemed to have virtually no taste of basil. After finishing our drinks, the host set the 5 of us at a table directly next to a table linen folding station, literally 2 feet away, which was distracting and unacceptable. When I requested a different table, I was informed that we couldn't move because those had prior "double" reservations. Still not sure what that meant, but we also had reservations for 2 weeks prior, and the entire dining room was nearly empty. It was 4:30 PM. I asked if it's possible then to reserve a specific table, and she repeated the "double reservation" comment. Makes no sense. We started with calamari and "Nino's Mexican Shrimp cocktail." The calamari was soggy with no crispiness whatsoever, apparently it was fried in old oil that was not hot enough. The shrimp, though large, were nothing special -- 6 shrimp with a simple dipping sauce, I've made better at home. 3 of us ordered the Pittsburgh prime rib eyes, 1 ordered a shrimp dinner, the 5th short ribs. The steaks were nothing short of awful -- the worst any of us ever ate. Ordered as medium rare, all 3 were well overdone: tough, oversalted, comprised of 2/3 gristle, with extra rather plain sauces to accompany them. And these were $69 prime steaks -- really? That's close to the cost of a steak at Gibson's Steakhouse or Ruth's Chris. Inedible. Any chef would have or should have seen that these steaks were unworthy of serving and should have tossed them before setting them on the grill. The creamed spinach was a small pate of milk with a few spinach leaves floating in it, nothing creamy about it. The fries were cold and tasteless. Our friends rated their meals 2.5/5.0, every one of these steak meals were 0/5. Why did we not just get up and leave? -- because our friends and us wanted a happy time together over the holidays and we just didn't want to go search elsewhere at this point. In hindsight we should have taken our $680 elsewhere. read more

We ordered the menu for two- the meatball app was not a meatball I've ever had -texture was not good and the spicy sauce did not help, steak was average, Brussel sprouts nothing special and the Crème Brule was the only thing that satisfied -the waiter was stretched too thin to care and the servers kept taking my silver read more

Delicious food, great service. The restaurant itself was beautiful, the hostess stand was in a weird spot next to the bar where servers were grabbing drinks from their table and we waited next to where the bussers were putting half eaten plates of food and empty drinks next to us, it was so busy there wasn't a good place to stand to not be in anyone's way. There was a particular gentleman who brought his dog into the establishment (gross) acting like he ran the place, came over several times to our table but then went back and yelled at our server for not being accommodating (wasn't their fault at all). He also was underdressed with his boots untied. I think it was an owner or manager, I would expect more from someone who runs a restaurant like this one. read more

Really disappointing experience. My wife and I stopped in for a date night and started off with the baked goat cheese appetizer. The app was delicious but a little runny and not enough goat cheese. Nothing impressive, but that was where the positive experience ended. For our entree we decided to try one of the specials, the caccio e pepe rigatoni with lobster bits in it. We planned to split between us. While we waited, the food runner brought us a completely different entree, the lobster and salmon risotto special. We actually considered that entree but glad we didn't, because you could see the salmon was overcooked and dry, the lobster also overcooked and dry. It sat at our table for about 5 min or so before we finally got ahold of our waitress and she agreed they brought out the wrong order, ours was still sitting up at the window... What was weird was that the waitress picked up the incorrect dish and brought it back to throw it out. Normally when you get brought the wrong dish like that and it sits on a table, Maybe even someone cut into it, staff would ask if we want them to leave it or take it away. Because you definitely cannot serve that again. So it was unusual customer service that she took it away only to throw it out and completely waste it since there wasn't actually something wrong with it, that's unusual service. Kind of tacky to be honest for what's supposed to be an upscale restaurant. When we finally got the dish we ordered, it was probably the most disgusting bowl of pasta I've ever had in my life. I know what caccio e Pepe is supposed to taste like, this wasn't even close to anything related to that. It was extremely watery and lacked cheese, tremendously. The sauce, if you can call it that, literally tasted like the pot water that the pasta cooked in. They definitely just spoon the pasta out of their pot with that water and just place it in the bowl. I have no doubt about where that taste came from and what that liquid was. The lobster in the pasta, there was maybe four tiny pieces and they were chewy as heck. And the texture of the pasta was like a TV dinner, it was extremely mushy and soft. They should honestly be embarrassed for serving this dish. The waitress did Fine, but didn't really seem like they took much care to the quality of food or acknowledging the errors being made, so overall it's supposed to be a nice steakhouse but It was just a really terrible experience with awful food. This is my second time there, the first time was better but maybe only 3 stars worth. I don't think we'll be back there for a third time. Not impressed. read more

My boyfriend chose this restaurant for a date night for us. We called for a day of reservation and got in at 7 pm. The hostess stand is in the middle of the restaurant. There is limited street parking out front, but there is a large parking lot out back. On Wednesday night the bottles of wine are half off which was nice. They have a decent wine selection. We started with crab cakes which were delicious. Based by the pictures, I decided to go for the upcharge and get the caprese salad with my meal. I was happy with this choice. My boyfriend had the Ceasar salad which only looked ok. I had the 6 Oz filet and it was cooked just to my liking. It came with a small amount of mashed potatoes. My boyfriend had the filet medallions which came with fingerling potatoes. Those potatoes were excellent. We splurged and split a dessert as well. We went with the death by chocolate as that was recommended by our server. Prices were slightly high and service was a little slow. (Friendly service though by all staff encountered). It was a cute place and I'm happy that I gave it a try. read more

We had heard this was the best steakhouse so we were a party of 6 with a reservation on a Sat night. Greeted by an unfriendly hostess and seated at an unsteady table right behind hostess stand. Manager yelled at 2 staffers while we were eating. Tables are crammed together right against a railing. Server told me to push my food 6" to the center of table because it sloped so badly it would fall in my lap. Silverware rolled right off the table! Not a good start. Appetizers were good. Steaks were very salty and portions extremely small for price. The beet salad with sweet potatoes had 3 thumbnail sized potatoes and was mostly greens. Salmon on top was cooked perfectly. Chicken Marsala had 3 mushroom slices and I had to ask for a steak knife to cut it. Overcooked. There were 3 bites of mashed potatoes with it. The Lobster was exactly 3 bites. Seems to be a "3" theme here. It's very noisy and hard to carry on a conversation plus they have a live band. If you just want a drink, appetizer, and listen to a band, this is a good place. Just skip the dinner. read more
