“ I called The Fig to inquire about a private event at a time they were not open. They made it the easiest experience! We had a family graduation party for 20 people in the dining room. They allowed me to decorate the room, set up a TV with ... ”
“ While it only seats about 20 in the main dining area and 24 in the extended dining area, Fig Tree Cafe offers up some amazing food. They have an in-house mixologist who does the signature cocktails and most all of the food ingredients are farm to table. Each dish was very flavorful and the staff was polite and accommodating. I haven't had the chance to try the lunch menu, but the dinner menu is great for a night out with a date. Call ahead during busy times as it can fill up quickly. The menu also changes based on the season and what fresh ingredients are on hand. ”
“ I recently dined at the Fig Tree Restaurant, and I must say it was a remarkable experience from start to finish. The exceptional service provided our server, truly stood out. Their attentiveness and friendliness made the evening even more enjoyable. Now, let's talk about the food - it was absolutely outstanding. Each dish was expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. From appetizers to dessert, the culinary experience was top-notch, and I highly recommend trying their signature dishes. What really left a lasting impression, though, was the warm hospitality from not only the host and waitresses but also the owner. The owner went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure our comfort and satisfaction throughout the meal, making us feel like valued guests. In summary, the Fig Tree Restaurant is a hidden gem with great food, exceptional service from the staff, and an owner who goes the extra mile to make your dining experience memorable. I can't wait to return for another delightful meal. ”
“ This is a little gem of a find. The chefs cooking is spectacular, the service was great, and the food was some the best I’ve had in years. One of the favorites are the shrimp and grits. The restaurant is in the rear - not to be confused with the salon in the front. ”
“ Food was delicious! Always love this place. The waffle was soft and buttery. I love their cheese grits. The bacon was thick cut and perfectly crisp. ”
“ I'm blown away by this place! I can't believe how amazing it was! To top it all off, the owner, who I personally met, was so personable and it was almost as if I'd known him for years. We just talked and cut up as if we were best friends. I mean when you can be that personable with a complete stranger, that's why he's successful, he's one of those people that are people person and knows how to deal with people on whatever level they're at. I'm blown away by the place but this owner is probably the best person that isn't above anybody and talks on the same level as you do, this guy's absolute pest, I'll be back here constantly because I hope to run into him again ”
“ Food was A plus. Entertainment was also excellent: That is, seeing older people in fancy cars struggling to pull out of the tiny parking lot was such an artistic masterpiece and a treat. Haven’t seen a production like that since the time I went to see Wicked on Broadway. ”
“ I want to start out by saying that the staff at this restaurant were absolutely amazing when my original Mother’s Day brunch didn’t happen because they had to close the kitchen, I went on Resy to try and salvage my plans but when I arrived at The Fig Tree I was told that they were booked and the waitlist I was on wouldn’t be available unless someone cancelled. I was devasted to say the least. However, the “person in charge” Tee made an exception and allowed my party of 3 to sit at the bar. The only thing she asked was no complaining but let me tell you, there was absolutely nothing to complain about even though behind the bar they were throwing together drinks left and right!!! Tee was behind the bar working hard to take care of everyone but still managed to get us everything we needed, have conversations with us, and serve us amazing food!! If you haven’t been here, you should !!! Thanks again Tee and Staff for the amazing time!!! ”
