Reviews for the fig cafe & winebar in Glen Ellen, CA
As usual, a truly amazing restaurant with sensational food and amazingly warm welcome. Two years later… so good to be back to... our favorite restaurant in Glen Ellen. Really enjoyed the delicious food and great service. A tad disappointed that there is nowa corking fee! Pre-Covid, we were used to bring our own wine knowing that it would not add to our bill. It was a unique featureto the fig cafe. We were a little disappointed to see a $15 corking fee added to our bill tonight. Not for the fee itself (whatis $15 on a bill that is well over $200), but it is more for the principle. I would seriously recommend the fig cafe to go backto free corking, as it was pre-Covid.

Can't remember how many years we have been coming to the fig cafe. The menu does not change much, but the dishes are excellent... and the service is always friendly. Great vibe at this place and Glen Ellen. Read more
Stumbled upon this absolute gem of a place while visiting Glen Ellen! The staff are SO friendly and accommodating. I immediately... loved the homey vibe as well; it seemed like a lot of regulars came back to eat and were recognized by the staff. Highlyrecommend brown sugar buttermilk cake!! I’m not a cake person at all but I devoured this one. Read more
Very friendly staff. The mashuroom pizza is amazing. It's one of the reasons to come back to Glen Ellen.
I like this place a lot. We stay at the Jack London Lodge when we are in the area, and the Fig is just around the corner. Menu... tends to be on the lighter side - pizzas, etc - but you can get a heavier meal if you wish. Service is excellent, and the winesare local. It can get crowded, so booking ahead is advisable.

We weren't sure what to expect, we're staying overnight in Glen Ellen and chose the Fig almost at random. It is an absolute gem.... The food was outstanding. Get the duck fat potatoes to start, they are a must-have. I had the pork sago as my main and it isout-of-this-world good, deep rich flavors. I'd come back just to eat that again. The pizza and King Salmon were really good too.The wine list is small, but full of excellent local bottles. The servers were friendly and helpful. The decor is fun andwelcoming. The only slight letdown was the caramel compote desert, which was merely very good - a little too sweet and slightlycloying. But, don't worry, the brown sugar buttermilk cake was outstanding. We'll definitely be back. Read more
The white pizza with fig and pancetta should just be a permanent menu item as this was by far the best thing we ordered for... dinner. My burger was really good, but copious amounts of garlic spread did come back to haunt me in the form of heartburn. ButI'd probably eat it again if I'm in the area. They open bottles of wine which makes it a great place to enjoy at bottle youpicked up at one of the nearby Vineyards. The staff was very nice, and helpful. Desert was mediocre. Read more
Brilliant set meal of the day. So good I asked for the menu to see if I could reproduce it at home. Also very friendly other... diners. Really lovely evening. Unexpected decor, modern country.. Read more
