FoxFire is a really nice upscale restaurant. They have excellent service, everything is set up nicely with clean silverware and clean plates. They take pride in their cocktails and cooking. The prime rib steak egg rolls are an excellent choice 😋. Also, the Butcher Bites with seared steak pieces cowboy butter on top of creamy Polenta is satisfying.

This is such a great a place to wine and dine or hangout at the bar and enjoy a few cocktails or an Old Fashion with Piggyback bourbon. This place is well worth your time and money. They're very friendly people with outstanding service.

See you guys soon!

Came here for date night. Got 2 steaks and we each got 2 drinks. The steak does come with a side. Our steaks were good but not outstanding. The service was slow despite there being very few people in the restaurant. Our waiter only came to take our order and once the food was delivered. He never table touched again despite empty drink glasses. We even had to get up to find him to ask for our check. The busser was great with water refills at least. Because there were so few people in the restaurant even though we came at 7, the atmosphere was kinda non existent. I felt like more of an inconvenience for being there then anything. Lots of noise from dishes and sidework being done. The lights over the tables are glaringly bright compared to the dim lights in the rest of the restaurant. For the $200 we paid, I was underwelmed & don't plan to come back. Disappointing because I really wanted to like it.

1st time diners. I had the 12 oz prime rib with mushrooms, capers n horseradish. AMAZING.
my wife had stuffed pepper.
Kurt the owner stopped by our table to thank us for coming down, very classy. nice guy!
we like the open kitchen concept.
cocktails were good.

Second visit 9/1/18: had prime rib, sword special, too many gr8 sides and dessert. Kevin is an awesome server! Curt made his rounds. Will keep coming back. Left fat, dumb & happy.
Johnny Cash is my idol! so hearing Curt sing is on my list now!

Many visits later include crab stuffed flounder, lobster mac 'n cheese...
Last night 10/19 we had supper, jazz singer was awesome. I had the large prime rib but it was off, it was chewy. Thinking I was just in a vein of marbeling I kept at. About this time Curt was making his rounds and I explained the problem. He sent over a replacement about the time my wife was done with her entree. The outside edge I cut into was tender, when I got 1/3 in it became chewy. At this point Nick walked by and I mentioned my frustration and said someone really needs to try this, Curt was nowhere in sight. I babysit adults for a living and really just wanted the meal Ive had many times before [my week just stressed me out]. I really didnt feel like being that complaining customer, tired and disappointed I paid my bill and left. Passing by the hostess station I did ask that someone try my steak, 90% of it still on the plate. I dont feel they gave me a bad cut on purpose, I dont know what happened.

Ding one star, this is probably an anomaly. 🤔

burger is no flavor even patty is good quality. Suggested tip minimal starts 20% but didn’t feel 20% level service. Server ignore us twice even it’s Monday lunch time, so pretty quite inside. Ends up with a really nasty Togo bag…😥and still have to leave 20% tips…

Neat place. We dined on a few appetizers and salads to make an interesting meal. We liked the Bacon wrapped dates better than the short rib egg rolls but both were terrific. Decent wine list.

This place was really great as a whole but service was slow, not bad, just slow, and my specific dish was ok. But other people's were fantastic.
Lively with live music that night. Super busy all night long. Very enjoyable place to go with friends. It's too loud to consider going for a quiet night out though.

I've seen good restaurants have an off night, but never like we saw tonight at FoxFire. The waitstaff was friendly but obviously stretched thin. It was so painful to watch at times that we wished we could get up and help them. If that was the only issue, I wouldn't even be leaving this review.

-Seated us at one table, had us move to another a few minutes later.
-30 minutes to get an ordered bottle of wine to the table. (A table near us seated at the same time had appetizers by this point. We hadn't even been able to order them.)
-Took 5 minutes to flag someone down to get silverware and plates after the appetizers arrived.
-Appetizers (mushroom caps) came out half cooked. Sent them back, never saw them again (still charged).
-Another 5 minutes to flag someone down for silverware for the main course, as our unused utensils got cleared with the salad.
-Lobster tails were overcooked, as were the brussel sprouts.
-How they managed to make a medium rare 'Curt' filet taste dry is still boggling my mind. The color was right. The steak was just awful.
-2.5 hours at the table for 2 people that didn't even order dessert.

We had such good memories of our last visit here some years ago. Even while waiting for the wine, we were talking about coming back for lunch soon to try food we were not going to order tonight. After the meal, we left wondering why we didn't just get takeout down the street and save $250.

Ill give them 5 stars for the Bacon wrapped dates... everything else was VG but didn't think it was worth their $25 prices especially on the appetizers.
