Great food,wonderful service . We were treated like we were the only people that our waiter could see. Thank you Mark!
service was good and escargot very good. steak was rare or raw, potatoes were instant mashed and garlic spinach was so bitter. lobster tail was warm water and over cooked. don't plan on going back
Went there to celebrate our anniversary. Wife loved the lamb and I devoured the scallops. Would I do it again? Absolutely! We're going back for the aged steaks. Great place for special occasions. Treat yourself
A++. My daughter who lives in Rockford told me to go here “ best restaurant in town”. She was right. Ambiance was very chill but classy, food was excellent. From salad , to tapas to main course,everything was top notch. Service,especially our waiter Enrique was very relaxed , not rushed , pleasant and very professional. The chef Kevin came out and introduced himself , great guy and amazing chef. The bar area looks has nice vibe. Definitely “ best in Rockford “. If you want a nice relaxed and classy dinner in Rockford, highly recommend and must go restaurant.
Yet another hidden Gem I have discovered here in this little city. The whole experience was amazing from the moment me and my friends arrived. I hosted my birthday dinner here & at the time the weather was a little chilly but we still wanted the Igloo experience. The waitress was kind enough to call in advance and let us know that all though the igloos are heated we may get a little chilly due to weather and try to dress warm if possible. Which I thought was very thoughtful of him. I reserved for 6 but accidently invited one extra, no worries, they made necessary accommodations to make sure we still fit! Not only did they prepare the Igloo but they were one step ahead of the game and without my knowledge they reserved me and my guest a backup private room which they called the “library” which me and my ladies wound up utilizing after taking a few photos and having a drink in the igloo before we got too cold. It was just as beautiful as the Igloo experience in side. The waitress were all friendly, nice, and smiling. The food amazing! Even gave me the cutest cheese cake which the decorated and wrote Happy Birthday on! Will definitely be returning and I’ve been telling everyone about the place.
Had a great dinner. The brussel sprout appetizer was unique and very good. Then came a nice little side salad. The surf and turf was different from what I've seen elsewhere, being a Wagyu steak and scallops. Everything was prepared well and tasted great. Dessert was chocolate mousse cake, which was pretty traditional and very good. Drinks were also unique and very good. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Our first experience was in 2020 and it was bad, but we thought some of it was due to covid. We tried again last night, and it was again very disappointing. The atmosphere is great, but that's where it ends. If you're going to charge $18 for apps and on average $40-$60 for a steak it better come out hot and great tasting. Neither of which happened. They also offer soup or salad with the meals but the server didn't bother to tell us that it's an extra 5 or $6 for the soup!! Total bill for 5 people including our tip was $487. Yikes, never again
It was supposed to be a high end steak house but the steak didn’t seam very good quality me and my girlfriend both had a New York strip it was very chewy had no flavor Would recommend green fire or prime 2/5 stars have had better steak at apple bees lol
I have been here several times but as of late there has been some changes made. The food is better than ever.. There are allot of places in town that try to offer the high end food.But all you really get is mediocre food and large bill… This place is not the case. You get what you pay for and it’s absolutely delicious and worth the prices. Regardless of where they seat you . I would recommend asking for Enrique. He really makes the experience enjoyable!
We had a absolutely delicious meal at Josef's. Our server Arianna was fabulous. We never felt rushed, as we couldn't make up our minds. We were able to enjoy each course. We definitely will return to Josef.
