The roast chicken is amazing. Burger. Really good. One of the friends we go with regularly always gets the burger. Chicken. Was so sad I didn’t get it. My cousin did though.

Had a horrible steak frites here. It was raw and cold and it took 10 minutes for anyone to notice. Having been to the sister restaurant with an epic experience, it was extremely disappointing! But what a cute little town!!

I prefer not to leave negative reviews, but the meal that I had at The Fig Cafe was very strange and not what I expected. The fig and arugula salad was delicious: well balanced and pleasant. The entree of ricotta dumplings was a great disappointment: bland, chalky, and unbalanced. My partner and I paid $60 each including the tip for one salad, one iced tea, and two entrees. I would gladly pay that for a delicious meal, but this was not. The atmosphere was fine with lovely art and comfortable seating. (A bit loud as the evening progressed.) Our server seemed tired and as if she was perhaps feeling unwell. She frowned at every interaction. I will not go back to this restaurant, and I wanted that to not be the case.

This review pertains to their burger alone, The Fig cafe HAD one of the best burgers in the world. It’s now an over priced average burger that comes in one temperature- well. Really hoping they go back, but I’ve heard they have received this feedback a lot and no plan to do so.
The food gave me stomachaches. I ordered the fish of the day. The outside was good, but the inside was terrible. No pizza, no Pinot, and not many items to choose from
Vegetarian options: Around 1/8 of it is vegetarian.
Kid-friendliness: Pretty good

based on what we experienced last night, this is an average place... restaurant was cold inside when we got there and never really warmed up even after an hour while filled with people! management needs to acknowledge that unlike the moving staff, people sitting at table need to be eating their meal in a warm environment and it was just not it. Waiter was polite, friendly and available when needed.we ordered wines by the glass and not cheap at $16 average per glass...food was delivered without a long wait but both entrees were luke warm not hot!!! one was sent back and was just average in taste, nothing special. Steak frites was fine...we ordered the brownie sundae for dessert and it was just ok, nothing out of this world. they charge $5 for bread if you order some so you know.waiter kindly took off one entree off the bill after my friend barely ate any of it, taste was too greasy.An overall average experience for this once great place we had visited 10 years ago.too bad.

Wonderful place. We tried all the specials. Bean soup (delicious). Pot roast (so tender). Beignets (straight from New Orleans).I really appreciated the portions, and that they were willing to split the entrées between me and my partner without any hassle. The wine list is also above reproach. Great variety of Sonoma county and external wines. Looking at you Bonny Doon from Aptos.When we come back to Glen Ellen, this will be on the list to visit again.
