Reviews for the girl & the fig in Sonoma, CA

Everyone recommended coming here, and we are so glad we visited. The food is eclectic, so fun to try new and different things.... There is something for everyone, and we were able to get in late without a reservation. The staff was exceptionallyaccommodating for myself and my girlfriends, which was so inviting. Also, the manager Randy was a gem-chatted with us until wewere the last table, and never rushed us. The cookies at the end were a treat to take back to the hotel (thank you)! Definitelygo visit, such a fun place to try, bring your “try anything” attitude, and explore the different food pairings! ???? Read more

I've been wanting to go here for years but the pandemic hit and never came in. I finally ate here this weekend. We ordered the... tomato bisque soup, the grilled cheese with fries, and the pork belly hash. The food portions were small but sufficient. Thefood overall was nothing special. I expected so much more in the way of taste, quality, and quantity. The pork belly hash wasactually quite bland. I wanted mine served with scrambled eggs and the waiter said it comes with fried eggs cooked through. Ionly asked that the eggs not be runny. The waiter said it is not served that way. The eggs on this dish sat atop the hash andwere runny. Probably the best thing about this meal was the bread and butter served with flake salt. The restaurant charged$2.50 for extra butter which was about a heaping tablespoon portion. The grilled cheese sandwich was tasty and was prepared witha quality cheese. We will probably not come back here as we were not impressed at all. If you sit outside be prepared for a lotof pesky flies. Read more

One of the must try restaurants in Sonoma. The environment is cozy and friendly, food are excellent. This was our first time... there and all the dishes server suggested to us are well prepared and delicious. The tomatoes salad (sorry I forgot the name) isamazing and you can taste the freshness of the tomatoes! Wine is good too since we are in Sonoma I guess. But remember makereservation before you go, as they are too full on weekend and I don’t think you can walk-in and get a seat Read more

Very simple yet great. The steak frites was perfect. The halibut was also delicious. The server made some good recommendations... and was attentive. Very cute and nice restaurant. Felt like dining in a French home. The fig & goat cheese salad was delicious.Thank you! Read more

Fantastic dining experience! No problem getting an outside table that was dog friendly at 5pm on a Thursday. Our Waiter Seth was... friendly, professional, attentive, and made great recommendations; appreciate his COVID precautions too! Food and wine selectionwas stellar, unique, professionally made, and reasonably priced. Loved the steak tartar, grilled cheese, and fish dishes. Woulddefinitely come back, and recommend to friends when they are in town! Read more

I’ve been here a number of times over the years and every meal was wonderful! Never left a review, tho I should have, they all... would have been 5 stars. This time I was not super happy with one element of what we ordered - but everything else was superb asusual. I ordered the soft crab sandwich and the roll it was in was very bland and not up to par. An improvement might be -serving it open faced on a slice of epi bread, brioche or sourdough baguette ( like the breads at Bouchon Bakery. ) Even theirgrilled artisan bread that comes with the meals would have been a vast improvement! Maybe a smear of avocado too? Everythingelse we ordered was fantastic - the actual crab itself, the fries, the mussels and the beet salad. Yum. Also the fig Manhattancocktail was original and wonderfully delicious, in spite of the super sticky glass stem. They have a great patio as well! Read more

Wow! We came in for a small bite and wanted to stay all day because of the service and food! The drinks, made perfectly, the... food, sumptuous every bite! The service hands down best I have had in a long time. We had the best in our waiter, Seth, andmanger Deidra. Welcoming, beyond efficient, friendly and just the right amount of sass to make to smile! Here for the next threedays and sure we will be back for more! Do not allow yourself to miss this hidden gem on the corner of the square! Read more
