Copper Fox - Geneva

The food was average, the service was poor, and despite having a reservation, we were seated at a table that was far too small for our group of four. Our entrees arrived before the appetizers, and the soup and salad were served after the main course. We couldn't even find space on the table for our drinks. Overall, it wasn't worth our time or money, especially considering there are many better options available.

The hostess was not very welcoming. We noticed several open tables listed on OpenTable throughout the evening. There were two couples in our party, and we both assumed that the other had made a reservation. When we discovered that we didn't have a reservation, the hostess informed us that it wasn't possible to make one. However, there were several tables available. We pointed out that OpenTable showed availability, and I even selected a time and tried to make a reservation. Eventually, she reluctantly agreed to let us in, despite saying she shouldn't. It made us wonder why we hadn't had a proper reservation in the first place. Once seated, we overheard her making comments about us to the server. Fortunately, the server was very nice and attentive. When we left, we still noticed that there were open tables available.

The atmosphere was wonderful, and the food was excellent with generous portions. The staff could have used more assistance as they were quite busy! Although the setting is a bar, the food was far from typical bar fare. I highly recommend the shrimp samosas—they were amazing! Additionally, they have a fantastic large space available for receptions and big events!

I had an open table rewards card to use. I had 10,000 points and only got $50 reward card. I made my reservation with it, showed it to our server when we sat down and they were not able to process when the bill came.

We didn't know that the dining rooms were only for private events, so the brightly lit bar area was not what we were expecting. Really nothing to put this place in competition with the rest of the restaurants on 3rd St. It was a decent meal with great service, but nothing that makes we want to return.
