    I ordered the sea bass and lobster. My sea bass came out uncooked and cold center. Took it back. Came back 1/2 the size originally given with less everything. So they just recooked part of my dish. Potatoes now were cold and unsure if any lobster left. For a dish $66 I expected way more

    Went to The Fig Tree for our anniversary. Asked for bar seating but the bar is very small so it was (understandably) full. They placed us in a tiny secluded room upstairs which was awkward and uncomfortable. The server (whose name I wish I remembered) was amazing! But other than that it was a let down and not worth the $300+ we spent. The foie gras was ok, but you have to request bread to go with it. The octopus was good. My husband ordered the elk chop which was tasty. I ordered the salmon cooked medium, it came out very rare, they “heated it up”, and it came back half rare and half cooked slightly more. I ended up taking home the undercooked part to microwave. They did give us truffles for our anniversary which was nice. Overall, we won’t be back.

    The ambience and service were terrific as always. Overall, we had a lovely time and the staff was very courteous, allowing us to sit and talk for two hours.

    My husband and I were really excited to try The Fig Tree. We love restaurants with unique menus and excellent service. The Fig Tree is a beautiful setting and the hostess was very welcoming. Unfortunately, the service was very off that night. Our waiter was friendly and seemed like a great person, but everything was SO slow. It took forever to order our food, and each step of service after that was painfully slow. Our main dishes were good, but nothing exceptional, particularly for that price range. Not to mention our clearly “finished” plates sat in front of us for over ten minutes, as we tried repeatedly to ask someone to remove them. Fortunately, the desserts were fantastic, but at that point we were tired of being there and just overall disappointed. This is probably the first time we haven’t actively attempted to address the situation in the moment, because there didn’t seem to be anyone in charge and it seemed pointless. Hopefully this was a one off and not the normal experience.

    The wait staff and service were some of the best we have had anywhere. Atmosphere was a small house with historic feel. Food was outstanding! The flavors on each dish top shelf. Expensive, so be prepared to spend a little, but worth it.
