Fig Tree Cafe Hillcrest - San Diego

Been to both Hillcrest and Point Loma locations, and I think they're both just as good! My server was very friendly and attentive. It was on a super hot day, but there was no delay on my hot entrees. Ordered a California Benedict and I love the eggs were cooked just right! The potatoes on the side were yummy and I would have ordered a side of potatoes just separately if I wasn't already full. I also had the monthly special breakfast fried rice with bacon and mushroom. The portion was a little small and the rice was just a tad too hard, but it was very flavorful probably because of the bacon. Did not disappoint!

My breakfast was good but not great. Ordered Eggs Benedict; the Canadian Bacon portion wasn't much bigger than a big pepperoni. I suspect the Hollandaise sauce was from a sauce packet. Coffee was good. Service was good, one waiter on while I was there on a Tuesday morning. Cool decor and located right near the famous Hillcrest sign that hangs across University.

I visited this place on Saturday. It was pretty crowded and had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated. The service was amazing and the staff was very helpful. I ordered veggie scramble and stuffed french toast. I loved the veggie scramble. The portion sizes are huge. Don't forget to ask the specials for the day. They have quite interesting options. I will definitely visit this place again if I go to San Diego.

Nice spot for fresh salads, sandwiches, and soups in the middle of Hillcrest. They have a really good side salad they serve with most dishes. They're tomato basil soup is also delicious. I'm a big fan of their black bean burger, it's really tasty (and I'm not vegetarian). They have a large selection good, healthy food, clean and spacious dining area with a friendly atmosphere, and quick service. Try this spot out for lunch or dinner you will be pleasantly surprised.

I highly recommend this place. 5 stars to the Servers, The Cooks, The Manager. Everyone here are very nice, the food was amazing, their home potatoes, Coffee, Orange Juice, the eggs Benedict, the french toast, I can go on and on about their food. I highly suggest you come here for breakfast, this is the place to be. If you found this comment helpful please press like.
