Everything was so delicious. I was skeptical on the Duck Confit but i was so good. Wished i had a bigger portion but worth it nonetheless. My partner got the bolognese and it was one of the most savory things i have tried. I wanted to eat both dishes. We also had the Frites with Truffle oil, parsley and Parmesan to share and it was amazing! They are a little pricey but not to bad. Service was also very good and our waiter was quite attentive. read more

Great service and amazing food! Cute & cozy interior, a great array of small plates and mains. The panna cotta with golden beet jam and raspberry sorbet was deliciously imaginative read more

The bistro is not too big, it has limited indoor seating but it also has outdoor seating in courtyard that looks like cute French courtyard. Came here on Christmas eve and they said they weren't really expecting they'd get this busy. We didn't have to wait too long, we're seated outside but they put out heater for us. The server was really nice. My mom ordered the burger and wants her side to be substituted with the truffle oil fries with additional charge, they forgot about it but when the server was reminded they let us kept the regular fries and bring the truffle oil fries out. I had the soup and it was delicious. My husband had the bolognese which was really good. Would definitely come back again. read more

This place is so cute. They have the best parmesan fries, so good. I also ordered the mussels in coconut and ginger broth it was good but probably would not order again. My husband had Reuben sandwich and he loved it. But fries were star of our meal. read more

This place has the cutest ambience! We got takeout but I would totally eat here as well. Egg salad sandwich was probably the best one I've ever had; the bread was perfectly buttery and toasted, and the smoked salmon adds a fantastic twist. The Bolognese pasta was also great! A bit heavy though so wouldn't get it if you're going for a lighter meal read more

We ate here on a Friday evening. It is located in the extended set of shops and restaurants outside the main gate to Biltmore Estate. This place is on the edge of the development. I turned at their building/sign and took a 1-way driveway behind the building to what was apparently the parking lot for all the businesses (and some residents?). You should pay attention to signage here to ensure you don't park in the wrong area. Fig itself is sort of small, though they do have patio dining if the weather was nice (it was chilly and raining when we visited). I made reservations a couple of weeks in advance, which was probably a good idea. There is a bar and a generally L-shaped dining area. The vibe is upscale. Our waiter was very good. I enjoyed a pasta dish and I think my wife got a steak, which she liked. Neither of us had leftovers. I think they had a relatively good wine list also, though their website appears defunct and I didn't immediately see the menu on the FB page. If you want a quiet spot for a nice meal/date, this is a good choice. read more

Wonderful lunch spots Biltmore Village! Granted, I have not had the opportunity to try dinner yet, but I can't wait to come back. Enjoy the intimate dining room setting or dine outside in the courtyard. The service was great. A bread serving starts out the meal even during lunch. Opted for a simple grilled cheese and fries, but this was no ordinary grilled cheese. Absolutely one of the best grilled cheese sandwiches ever and the fries were great. read more

My daughter and I loved having lunch at Fig last week.. it's adorable inside and the wait staff was super friendly.. I had their quiche and soup (potato) and my daughter had the soup as well with the pork loin .... We loved it all and will return. read more

Fig was a delightful find in the Asheville area. Very attentive service, excellent creative food, and a cozy French bistro atmosphere. Loved it! read more

All I can say is.... Wow! Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. Food outstanding (the star of the evening was the Panne Cotta with Fennel syrup-,trust me!). The service outstanding. Loved the overall vibe. And the price point was great. I WILL be back! read more

Excellent food and service! Chef came by the table and was delightful. Will absolutely be back!

Great food and service It is a small place so make reservations but definitely worth it especially if like vegetarian dishes and a great wine selection I definitely recommend this place for a fun and ent meal read more

Four of us for dinner had a very good meal, good wine, an enjoyable time, we've eaten there several times before, each one a good experience. Certainly not a romantic setting, not very formal, and not a very big space, but feels European (in a positive way). read more

Disappointed that this fine restaurant is closed as of 4 pm Tuesday! Wanted to experience Fig for this evening.

Service was fabulous (Charlotte) with very tasty, but limited menu. My wife had bolognese which was the perfect size, the caesar salad was outstanding and the mussels were very good - yet a bit different, soaked in a tomato base, rather than typical garlic, lemon. Bread was wonderful. read more

We had a great experience. We ate outside in their courtyard. All dishes were great. Took a couple pictures. One picture of their flounder special and another of their sardines in a tin. The chef topped off our evening by visiting us table side and telling us the story behind his dish, sardines in a tin. read more

The menu has changed since reopening after COVID-19 shutdown. Pork Chop Bone in, green beans & Lima beans apricot jam. Green beans and Lima beans were a substitute for the mushroom, leak and Gorgonzola pain haricot verts because of gluten free diet. Sunburst trout-cold creek grits, roasted sweet potatoes, tobacco onions and Tabasco butter. Both were excellent. read more

Food was delicious and so was the wine. Our server was very attentive and friendly. Nice atmosphere quiet and relaxing.

Great atmosphere, service and food. I'll definitely go back every time I'm in Asheville

Food was top-notch. We went for lunch. The best pomme frites I have ever had. They added the perfect amount of truffle oil with Parmesan where it was savory but not overpowering. Service was excellent read more

Excellent food and great service! The restaurant located in Biltmore Village was very nicely appointed and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

5 stars for service 4 stars for the food. All of the servers were amazing and made our experience pleasant. We ordered the truffle pomme frites, pork chop, and bolognese. The truffle fries were good, but the truffle flavor was not very consistent throughout the fries. The pork chop was cooked perfectly and the sides were great but the pork had a bit of a smell to it. I have to disagree with other reviews about the bolognese. It was not good. It was a cream base unlike traditional bolognese, which is fine but the flavor was very very bland. read more

Fig is one of Asheville's gems. It's a neighborhood spot for us. I love the small intimate space and the food and service are always phenomenal. The menu is small and purposeful. Celery salad, truffle pomme frites, mac and cheese - solid favorites. Recently had a short rib that was cooked to perfection. Definitely recommend calling to reserve especially on the weekend. read more

Food was very good and service was excellent. We will return! The wait was long but our lunch was worth the wait! Maybe call ahead to make reservations. read more

Had lunch at Fig 03/28. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Plenty of options on the menu and the sever told us several specials of the day. The hostess was also the owner gave us her picks as well. The food was perfectly prepared and the service was excellent. Truly a foodie gem in Biltmore Village. read more

Great place. We were driving over from Knoxville so I yelped to see what would be available in Asheville. This little place turned up and it was wonderful! We had the mussels, Chicken breast and risi e bisi - all excellent and great service! read more

Dining at Fig Bistro is like being invited to dinner at your best friend's house and this friend is an amazing chef! Warm, welcoming and gracious staff and a fresh and fabulous meal. The fried oysters at to die for. We enjoyed our dinner at a table in the charming courtyard where fireflies put on a light show- magical. I wish we lived in Asheville as this would become our favorite. read more

Our first visit and plan to return. Very good service. A special on the day we were there was soft shell crabs. Best ever.

A nice airy restaurant located near the Biltmore. We dropped in for lunch and ordered deviled eggs, grilled salmon, mussels and pomme frites. The salmon, cooked to order, and the pomme frites, sprinkled with truffle flakes, were fabulous. The deviled eggs were a tad too lightly seasoned for my taste. The mussels were the weakest selection because they weren't at their freshest. The pacing of the dishes was disappointing. After quite a wait, the dishes arrived all at once. It would have been nice to start with the eggs, then the mussels and frites, and finally the salmon. Overall though, we had a very pleasant meal at Fig. read more

Best meal we had in Asheville. It was their first night being open from covid. The owner was serving us. He couldn't have been nicer. All the food we had was fantastic. Looking forward to getting back to western Carolina. And eat at fig again. read more

Came here last minute with a big ground the day before New Year's Eve. Fig was super accommodating when I called to see if they had any last minute reservations for a group of eight and they were able to fit us in later in the evening. Some member of our group were a bit louder than others and our waitress handled it in stride. I thought the menu had a nice variety of items, not huge, but a little something for everyone. I got the duck confit salad which was awesome. The duck was tender and super flavorful, the salad was an overall great compliment to the duck. Would recommend ordering that for sure. My husband and I also shared the bolognese and it was quite tasty as well. It was a good sized portion and plenty for the both of us to share. The space is super small so it does get quite loud when there are multiple large parties. The patio looked like a great option when the weather gets warmer. I definitely recommend checking them out! read more

Fig used to be one of our favorite restaurants in Asheville. I loved the Steak Frites, and the fries were possibly the best in Asheville. Then, we had a really poor experience for dinner there a couple of years ago, and Fig dropped off our list. However, we recently gave it another try. It was better than our last experience there, but it's still not what it was. Steak Frites wasn't on the menu anymore, at least not the night we were there. So I had the burger and fries. The cheeseburger comes with ricotta cheese (!), on which I passed, and the fries were particularly disappointing. They are no longer served in a cone but were on the plate with the burger. They were undercooked and nothing like the frites that Fig used to do so well. I'd note that friends from Atlanta and Raleigh also recently tried Fig for lunch and were also disappointed in the burger and fries, especially the fries.) Service was okay, and I still like the small bistro atmosphere (there are fewer than 40 seats inside, plus some in a rather unappealing courtyard, and tables are close together). Mussels were pretty good. But in my opinion overall Fig is not what it once was. read more

Excellent food and service. Meal was creative and perfectly prepared with being overly fussy. Staff is attentive, but not hovering.

Located in Biltmore Village (semi-hidden - you need to walk up stairs to find the entrance), this small, intimate restaurant was surprisingly able to accommodate a party of 9 (last minute). Our table was set upon arrival, and everyone seemed pleased with their meals. I ordered bread for the table ($2.50 each - would prefer if it was complimentary, of course) and I got mussels (listed as a starter) with a side of rapini (broccoli rabe) for my meal. The mussels were good, and it was a large portion, but I should have ordered to bolognese. Most of the main courses were small portions. The side of rapini was nothing exciting, but I wanted a vegetable. My $10 glass of rose was not the best, but I finished it. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and happily split our checks 9 ways. Each person's individual receipt came on a scrap piece of paper, which I kind of loved, as it did not fit the vibe of the restaurant at all, but I am all for reusing paper. Ultimately, I would go back and order the bolognese. read more

There's not much to add to the other reviews, other than my stars which they absolutely deserve. We had an incredible night out at Fig and the food, service, and atmosphere were the best in AVL. This is a place that knows it serves incredible food, and you can feel that in the proud service, the understated dining room, and the presentation. Also no matter what you order, be sure to get the frites - best ever. read more

We were visiting from out of state and had a lovely dinner with my husband and his family. The food was delicious, the service staff were kind and attentive. The chef came by our table to check on everything. You can tell everything was made fresh. We finished off the evening by sharing several desserts. There wasn't a dish on the menu that we didn't like. Highly recommend! read more

We were disappointed they didn't have pork belly, even though it was on the website. But everything else was excellent. I highly recommend the ribeye, salmon, and Bolognese pasta. Unfortunately, the restaurant was out of short rib. We ordered the sweet breads instead, and it was OK. Service was amazing. Best in years, I feel. read more

Food is excellent French bistro style. The servers are friendly and efficient. The background music is fun.

A hidden gem! Don't be intimidated by the thought of French food aa the chef has crafted his menu selections into sophisticated, yet friendly dishes. Plates arrive looking picture perfect with tastes to match. the restaurant itself is a charming, well decorated space with a warm and attentive staff and a very personable chef. Do yourself a favor and stop in for a meal and I'm sure it will quickly become a personal favorite. read more

The menu had a great variety of choices. There were 4 of us in the party- we ordered the Cesar salad, celery salad, short ribs x2, the salmon and the trout which was the featured fish that day. All of us really enjoyed our meals and didn't leave a thing on our plates. So how could we possibly turn down dessert? Of course we didn't. Nothing wasted there either. Best I can tell you is you can't go wrong. We all consider ourselves foodies and enjoyed everything. Casual relaxed atmosphere and the service was perfect and personable. Highly recommend. read more
