Foxfire Restaurant

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 and Chicken Vesuvio were both ok. The brussels sprouts were disappointing, typically they are halfed or whole but these not served that way, they were flaked or broken apart and lost the crunch you would expect from brussel sprouts. The brownies ala mode and cheesecake were surprisingly good desserts. Nice place to dine overall.

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 not missing in action, was generally forgetful and inattentive. Dirty plates and empty drink ware stacked up on the table, dishes were delivered without the appropriate utensils, bread came an hour in just before our entrees, and we had to chase down our server after dessert to get the check (roughly 30 minutes from meal conclusion to finally getting the check…and without a thank 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 not to penalize the other restaurant employees. Restaurant gets an 8.5 for food quality and presentation, and a 3 for service.

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 at our table got a steak and said it was the best they've ever had.

This was our first time dining at the Firefox restaurant. My wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary. We had an eight fifteen reservation. Upon greeting the hostess we were told that the servers were very busy and we would have to wait 10 to 15 minutes to be I seated. So we sat at a table in the bar. A female bartender was kind enough to inquire if we needed anything which we appreciated very much. We received a text saying our table was ready and we were seated after about 15 to 20 minutes. We were seated at a table in the back of the restaurant but requested a booth which we were told was no problem and we switched to a booth. The staff was very accommodating about the table change. My wife ordered the baby back ribs and I ordered the prime rib. Both our meals were cooked exactly the way we liked and were delicious. As it was our first time at the restaurant the server was patient with us in explaining the menu and educating us on the portion sizes etc. which we were happy she did. The bus boys were very attentive as well, clearing our finished plates and refilling our water. After our dinner, our server surprised us with a dessert to share on the house with a candle in it to celebrate our anniversary. Very nice touch. The dessert was a piece of cake I believe the server called “ death by chocolate “ and it honestly was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. Our server Mandy also took our picture at the table for us despite how busy she must have been. She was friendly and never made us feel rushed . Our experience at the Foxfire was a very positive one and we will be back in the future.
