The Fig Cafe Winebar - GLEN ELLEN

Stuns on this absolute jewel of a place when visiting Glen Ellen! The staff is so friendly and accommodating. I immediately loved the local mood; it seemed like a lot of regular guests came back to eat and were recognized by the staff. Highly recommend brown sugar buttermilk cake!! I'm not a cake man at all, but I swallowed this one.

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 wines are 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 is out 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 and welcoming. The only slight letdown was the caramel compote desert, which was merely very good a little too sweet and slightly cloying. But, don't worry, the brown sugar buttermilk cake was outstanding. We'll definitely be back.

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. But I'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 you picked up at one of the nearby Vineyards. The staff was very nice, and helpful. Desert was mediocre.
