Keep in mind, I'm not a pasta lover! My bestie was in town and we decided we wanted Italian food. We found Fig on tik tok and decided to give it a try. There is a parking garage nearby , so parking is not an issue. When I walked in, I loved the wall and bar area. The hostess was very friendly. There is also an outside patio. The place was pretty packed but the service made me feel like the only person in the room. The waiter was super knowledgeable about the menu. I loved how all of the people on staff were friendly, gave compliments, and had conversations with us. They really brought the experience together. The menu was the right size and not overwhelming. Appetizer Brioche - cooked so well and my friend is bread lover. She wanted more and the truffle butter was a lovely touch. Mushroom arancini- warm, crispy, flavoful, and just devine Main Agnoliti- The pasta was cooked so well. I can tell it was made in house. The sauce was flavorful. The bison was so tender and yummy. This was a hearty dish that was made with love . To Fig Italian Kitchen and Bar, Thanks for everything !! read more

I came here to happy hour on a whim, treated myself to a little solo dinner. The food was tasty but like a few other reviewers found it to be a bit underwhelming and nothing stood out as a true OMG moment. The service was great and attentive without feeling like anyone was checking in too much. I was sat at the chef's table and treated to a free appetizer so I appreciated that part. The wine and sangria stood out to me as thoughtfully curated, and the pretty warm and dim lighting kept the mood cool and calm on an otherwise hot summer day. Im always looking for new places to try around happy hour and felt sated but not blown away. All in all a positive experience though! read more

A solid American-style Italian spot in Austin with friendly service and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The pasta dishes were satisfying and definitely hit the spot when you're craving something comforting. Nothing stood out as especially memorable or unique enough to make me eager to return right away, but the overall experience was still enjoyable. I'd be open to coming back to try a few other dishes on the menu. read more

5 stars all around for food, service, atmosphere! My husband and I came in to celebrate our anniversary and we once we sat down we were greeted with a glass of champagne (on the house). Our server was fantastic! He gave us recommendations throughout the night and fantastic service! We started with the mussels, brioche bread, and oysters! Everything was flavorful and fresh. Then we ordered two pasta dishes and the rigatoni was my favorite! My husband ordered the fig old fashioned and I had the aperol spritz! We ended the night with the strawberry bread pudding. I'm typically not a huge fan of bread pudding, but this was hand down DELICIOUS! It tasted like a strawberry strudel or pop tart but way better. It was warm and served with strawberry ice cream. We had such a wonderful night! The hostess checked in on us a few times and provided recommendations and just overall a wonderful evening! Parking is in the garage, directly behind and easy to navigate. It was our first time coming here and we will definitely be back! We read more

Gorgeous special occasion place. Service was outstanding. Very attentive-my water was never empty. The starters were the best part of the meal. Brioche rolls with truffle butter. Divine! Mushroom arancini?? Crazy delicious. The layers of flavor blew us away. We both got pasta dishes and they were interesting and good, but not worth the $30+ price tag. The chocolate torte was topped with mascarpone cream, candied almonds and rhubarb. The toppings were the best part. When I think of a chocolate torte, it's richer and less cake like. This was not that. It was lighter and actually not very chocolate forward. Next time I think we'll stick with cocktails and starters. FYI, parking is complimentary in the 04 parking garage. And they gave my wife a $15 coupon for our next visit as a birthday gift. Nice touch! read more

One of my new favorite places in town! All the dishes were consistently good, each one got better and better! Service was well paced and our waiter was very attentive and helpful with making suggestions. Must get the rolls as a starter! Can't go wrong with the raw oysters either. The pasta was refreshing and light. Sauce was not heavy and left room for dessert! Preferred the ice cream out of the two, but can go wrong with either! Parking garage nearby for easy parking! read more

Really nice dinner at a really nice place. We were actually greeted by the manager. She clearly runs a tight ship. Our experience was A1. We ate outside as the weather was perfect for dining outside. We started with the Brioche with Truffle butter. I tried the Rigatoni and a Smokey Old Fashioned with fig, my wife the Bucatini and a Prosecco Rose. Special thank you to Vernon (our server) who provided top tier customer service. read more

Went there for Happy Hour (5-6 pm Mon-Thur) and was blown away by the selection of tasty cocktails, the shareables, and the pastas available! We tried a little of many things since it was our first time - the brioche, crispy potatoes, gem salad, and pastas. All were fantastic, as was the service from Kenny. The place is decorated nicely, and although it could be loud when full, it wasn't noisy when we were there. read more

My husband got a promotion and so we came out to fig to celebrate. We had an early appointment at 530. To beat the mad rush. There is parking down the road a little at the apartment but very limited. As soon as we entered the service was so great. The host was so friendly to us and our little kids. The server Vernon was also so pleasant and he went above and beyond for us. And was always there when we needed him We had the crispy potatoes... scallop crudo... brioche to start with. The potatoes were so good. For mains we had the chicken and steak... two pastas. The rigatoni and the agnolotti . The agnolotti was disappointing. It felt like it was so overcooked it felt like soup but it was still very tasty. The chicken was really good. Finally for dessert we had all three options The lemon olive cake, bread and butter pudding and chocolate mousse. The latter was too rich for me but the olive cake oh my goodness... tasted like a delicious home made moist cake it was so good. I wanted to take home an extra slice. Overall great service.. great food... very nice cute restaurant. Please be aware they put a 20% gratuity on tables 5 and above so that was part of our check. read more

Excellent Mother's Day dinner experience. We had an enjoyable evening. The facility is nicely laid out and not so loud you can't have a conversation at your table. The entire staff was helpful and welcoming. Our waiter wasn't pushy but gave excellent recommendations for food and drink. Get the Pedro Mezcal!!! Wonderful cocktail that goes down a little too easy All the pastas were great. We each got a different one. My personal favorite was the cavatelli. Highly recommend this place for a nice night with great food and service read more

Enjoyed a wonderful date night meal with my boyfriend. We started with the bread service with truffle butter. Parker roll style, which were perfectly fluffy. Then we enjoyed the muscles with grilled Tabata perfect for dunking in the unctuous sauce. For the Main, my boyfriend tried the lamb shank and I enjoyed the scallops. The chef is very talented and the seasonings were perfect, not too salty or overpowering. For dessert, we tried the chocolate mousse cake which was very rich. we could only handle a few bites. My boyfriend tried the olive oil cake, which was amazing and a really interesting with that. they griddle for a nice Crunch. The manager was very kind and attentive as well. Look forward to coming back. read more

Fig is such a cute little restaurant on South Lamar that I highly recommend! We sat outside and had a very attentive waiter who made sure we got everything we needed and would refill our drinks without us having to ask. It was very slow, which is surprising for a weekend, especially since everything we ordered was so amazing. We started off with the salad salad with the soft boiled eggs, and it would have been perfect, but I think it had a little bit too much dressing, so the lettuce was almost swimming in it. My husband had the oysters and he said they were delicious. I had the pasta with the strachetella cheese on top and it also had crispy ginger pieces that made the be whole thing 10 out of 10! I would get it every single time. Definitely check this place out! read more

I have only been here for happy hour 1 time but the food was DELICIOUS. The little gem salad was $8 and the rolls (there were 2 but I devoured 1) were $6 I think? Incredible prices for such good quality. I have been CRAVING to go back, just haven't had the time..... but I will be returning and eating through their whole happy hour menu. A bit pricey for a regular weekday meal but I think this happy hour may be super slept on. Service at the bar was wonderful and has a lovely dark interior and romantic vibe. read more

Enjoyed our first visit to Fig! Parking is a bit of a challenge, so plan ahead to find a spot in one of the nearby retail garages (or send me tips if you've got them!). Service was quite slow, but all of the staff were very friendly! I'd definitely recommend asking for their personal favorites, as they were knowledgeable about how to pair dishes, cocktails, and desserts with what you're looking for, Would definitely order the Fig Old Fashioned again, but the Mrs. wasn't wowed by any of the mocktails on this trip. For sharing apps, our favorite of the evening was the mushroom arancini (excellent truffle aioli) followed by the crispy potatoes. We likely wouldn't order the scallops or eggplant on a future visit. There's an extensive menu, so it would be great to try some of their other options! Solid portion sizes for sharing, so start with one or two per person. read more

We made a reservation for our family birthday dinner requesting a highchair for our toddler. When we arrived, they said both highchairs were in use so we had to sit the toddler on the bench between us. We had also promised the toddler pizza and were informed that due to the raw bar that evening, there was no pizza. Not a strong start. We ordered brioche which was delicious but very expensive - $21 for 6 rolls! Our apps of octopus and eggplant were well prepared and tasty. As one of our party is gluten free, the server talked with her about the gluten free pasta prepared daily and she enjoyed her rigatoni. Our other dishes of black spaghetti, agnolotti, and campanelle were all delicious as well. The toddler got a pasta dish with parmesan. We shared a lemon cake for dessert and the birthday boy got a free gelato. When I looked at my receipt the next day, I noticed that I'd been charged twice for the black spaghetti and went back to the restaurant to have this corrected. It took 3 days but I hope it's all correct now. Based on our experience, I would say that Fig is child-tolerant but not child-friendly. And, as the prices are high, it's not a place that I will frequent. read more

My family and I decided to go to Fig for a celebration dinner. I always forget how good it is and then remember when I taste the food. We drove up, parked in the garage and walked to the restaurant. My husband made a reservation in advance just in case but there wasn't a lot of people there. We went at around 6:45 on a Thursday night. The host kindly greeted us and then sat us at a table for 4 in the middle of the room next to other tables. At first I was a little bothered by this but because the restaurant wasn't crowded I was able to adjust. After a few minutes a friendly waitress came over and greeted us. She handed us some menus and took our drink order. I asked if there were any mocktails and she mentioned two. She then left and we looked at the menu. She came back shortly and then took our order. First I ordered a mocktail called the Paloma which has grapefruit, lime and something spicy. I tried it and thought it was a real drink. I didn't like it but people that prefer non alcoholic drinks that taste alcoholic would probably like it. I asked the waitress about it and she said that something that mimics a spirit was added. That explained the flavor. She recommended that I try the other mocktail. She said that it's more refreshing. She took away the Paloma and brought back a Garden Refresher. This mocktail has cucumber, lime, and a basil flavor. It was really good. I ordered several with my meal. The Food We started with a Spicy Italian Pizza, Crispy Potatoes, and some House Brioche Rolls. The Rolls were yummy. They were soft and fluffy. The truffle butter is what gives the bread flavor. It's a really good butter. The Crispy Potatoes were flavorful. They came with a salsa and aioli at the bottom. The Potatoes were crispy on the exterior and nice and hot in the center. The sauce at the bottom was good. The Pizza was good. It comes with Sausage and Mozzarella. It was a little spicy. I was surprised by the spice at first but I couldn't stop eating it. For my main dish I ordered the Hanger Steak cooked Medium. It comes with Confit Smoked Carrots. The Steak was Delicious . It was cooked perfectly. It was pink and tender. The Carrots were like eating a giant sweet potato. As a bonus my son ordered a Pork Roulade and he let me try it. It comes with tomatos and Peas. The Pork itself was tender and yummy. The Tomatoes and Sauce was flavorful. The Peas were a little bit hard in terms of texture. My son didn't like them but I didn't mind them. It was a flavorful dish. For Dessert we ordered two items. The Chocolate Ice Box Pie and the Brioche and Gelato. The Chocolate Ice Box Pie comes with peanut butter and chocolate with a raspberry swirl. It was like eating a giant candy bar. It was super sweet. The Brioche and Gelato was heavenly. It's like a strawberry shortcake with vanilla ice cream. Delicious!! Overall it was was a very tasty celebration dinner. I like the atmosphere of the restaurant, the service is great, and the food is full of flavor. read more

4.5 Stars I am torn because the food was a solid five stars. The beet tartare ($15) was super fresh and creative. The rigatoni ($29) was one the BEST pasta dishes I have ever had. The housemade pasta had a toothsome bite and held the flavors of the rich tomato sausage sauce wonderfully. I was so excited I forgot to take a picture! T____T The Fig old fashioned ($18) was also great - loved the fig twist on a regular old fashioned. However, some small nits - the tables on the inside were insanely close. Like we could smell the people at the next table, haha. Perhaps the call is to sit outside on the large pretty patio where tables are spaced out nicely - though you'll have to deal with dining in front of the busy street. The interior is stylish but sort of reminded me of a hotel lobby. Our waitress was lovely :) Parking in the back in a covered structure. read more

What a cute place to go for a happy hour. Located in near South Congress/South Lamar in a complex with FREE garage parking (yes you read that free garage parking in that area? Found a unicorn) this gem of Italian restaurant is a great place to enjoy happy hour and enjoy contemporary Italian (but not classic Italian) dishes. It has a gorgeous patio underneath a tree that would be a great place to bring your dog and is dog friendly. For happy hour we got the brioche with truffle butter which was DELICIOUS. Think of it as basically a big Hawaiian roll with a nice crust, a little flaky salt that is so fluffy when bitten into and eaten. The truffle butter with it was so good and thankfully the truffle butter had the right amount of truffle without being overwhelming. We also had the arancini which were HUGE and very earthy due to mushrooms but still delicious and thankfully even though fried it wasn't too heavy. We ended up not getting pasta from happy hour and got pasta from the main menu. I ended up getting ricotta gnocchi which comes with saffron butter, shiitake mushrooms, smoked hatch chilies, roasted corn, and Aleppo. The gnocchi was pretty fluffy and great texture and not gummy. The sauce was a little bit too acidic (aka very lemony) which I wasn't expecting for me so I feel like I didn't taste the hatch chiles at all nor Aleppo which is usually smoky. I think next time I will try a different pasta. Service was was great. Our server Brenda was very attentive and I appreciated that since we were there for birthday celebration we got strawberry shortcake brioche dessert on the house. Parking is free in the garage attached to the restaurant! read more

Pretty unique flavors for Italian fare. A lot of their food is subtly wood smoked, which brings nice flavors into everything without being overpowering. Highlights are arancini (filled with mushrooms, served with two pleasant sauces, one I believe is sesame based - like a light tahini), and little gems salad which has a flavorful dressing and a soft-boiled egg. Pastas are good and seem to rotate; pizzas are on the appetizer section but can be an entree. The patio is very nice with shade, but try to get a seat away from the street, as Lamar can be loud. read more

Fig Italian Kitchen & Bar - Dinner menu with the kyoto and old fashioned cocktails - Italian Near Me - Austin, Texas

On the corner of the 704 with patio views to the historic Broken Spoke - this Italian (with European influence) restaurant has been open for about a year. It has a contemporary interior with very dark walls and furnishings. Services was professional, courteous but a little irregular on speed (both prompt and yet a little slow too). Food was very good though. - Margherita pizza was tasty. The crust was reminiscent of the flavor of a Neapolitan style but yet had a thicker crust for more chew. - Octopus - so tender and soft in a nicely complimenting sauce that didn't overwhelm the delicate octopus - Bucatini - delicious dish with clam broth, mussels, shrimp and clams. The clams were really good and the shrimp perfectly cooked. - Beef Dino rib - falling off the bone and so tender with immense flavor. Chanterelle mushrooms compliment. This one is very good and one to share with a group given how rich it is. Drinks were made well and very stiff. read more

My husband's birthday is usually a days-long celebration because he's a foodie and can't make up his mind on selecting one place. This was the third and final grand dinner for his special weekend. We made it early enough to start off with a couple of items from the happy hour menu, and then ordered other items from the regular menu. The old fashioned was really well prepared. I was impressed because it's hard to get a quality cocktail in Austin. I also tried their espresso martini and that was nice too. We started with the little gem salad, crispy potatoes and arancini. The flavors were delicious, the style of preparation uses (too) generous an amount of cream in each dish so the food is rich and heavy, but it's delicious. The crispy potatoes was the one dish we would skip - they were too thin, crispy and oily. For our entrees, we got the rigatoni with sausage and the vegetarian preparation of the Campanelle. I enjoyed the use of seasonal root vegetables such as beets and turnips in my pasta. I had to take most of it home for another meal because I was already quite full on the appetizers. What absolutely blew me away was our excellent service by Ana? I wish I had written down her name. She was sweet and helpful, attentive but not overbearing, warm and friendly but not too chatty - truly the epitome of excellent service! They have free retail parking in the back of the restaurant building so that's convenient too. read more

Girl dinner so we decided to try out Fig. Ambiance is dark and romantic with cool gold accents. We were able to walk right in on a Sunday evening, no reservations needed. The waitress came quickly and took our order. We started with drinks and both got Aperol Spritz which were really good. Then we ordered the brioche rolls and the truffle butter made them so good! For our meals I got the rigatoni, it was full on flavor and was a perfect portion. My friend got the ravioli, the taste was very unique but loved the unexpected citrus flavor in it. Food and drinks came out quickly, waitress was nice and loved the space. Enjoyed the food and experience and will be coming back. read more

My girlfriend and I had dinner and we enjoyed it! It was good and fresh! Service was kind as well

I was really excited to try this place but honestly was underwhelmed. It started with having a reservation for a birthday dinner, only to be seated over 45 minutes later with no offer to comp 1st round of drinks or anything - but rather being asked if we wanted to sit at the bar instead? They honestly just don't seem to know what they're doing at the front. The food was good but not worth the prices, especially not with the options you now get in Austin. Our server was great and definitely did go above and beyond as he knew we were annoyed about the wait so we appreciated that. read more

Our friends really enjoyed their experience at Fig so we decided to give them try. After driving in circles trying to find somewhere to park, I finally found parking in the retail garage next to Broken Spoke. When I entered, I was directed to the bar as I wanted to place an order to go. I ordered the half chicken, seared scallops, gem salad and brioche. After placing the order something told me to confirm that the dressing would be on the side and I am glad that I caught it before it was too late. You would assume that on a to go order, that would be a given, but it's not. The salad and scallops were both good, but the chicken was too salty and my husband did not enjoy it. Honestly, I thought the food was a bit overpriced for the quality. However, due to the fact that they are on Inkind, I might come back and dine on their super cute patio. read more

My mom and I ate here the first week of October. They have been newly open for a couple of months at this point but the restaurant was very quiet/empty. Granted we ate on a Monday night, which isn't a night that most people eat out. We started with the brioche rolls and mushroom arancini, which are two of their bestsellers and what everyone orders. I chose the rigatoni pasta. The appetizers were definitely miles better than the pasta, which was way too salty. The I did love the texture and other flavors of the rigatoni but please tell your chefs to fix their salt-o-meter! The pasta reminded me of other Italian places I've been to that seem to "try too hard" by putting too many ingredients or flavors into one dish. While the other pastas on the menu looked interesting, I'm worried that they would give me that type of feeling. We were dealing with a family emergency during dinner and the servers respected our space well and helped us speed up the bill when we finished eating. read more

It was really a 4.5 star experience! Food - 4 stars Service - 5 stars Ambiance - 4 stars This is the best restaurant that this location has had since Aroma closed! It is a beautiful space with dimly lit romantic dining. My only complaint is that the tables are too close together which encroaches on the enjoyment of the meal. The patio is large with shade and it's quite lovely. Parking can be difficult, but there is a garage across from the Broken Spoke. To start things off we ordered the brioche with truffle butter. Is a bit on the expensive side, but it was very good. We also had the octopus for an appetizer. It was lightly tempura fried, which I have never experienced before with octopus, and it was super tender and delicious. Amazing combination of flavors. The Tortellini in Brodo was also outstanding. It was red wine, beef béchamel in a mushroom brodo with chives and parmesan. It looked like a small dish, probably only six or seven tortellini, but it was deceivingly filling if you've already had appetizers. We also shared the Mint Pappardelle with Lamb. It had caramelized fennel, spiced pistachios, a pickled veg and topped with a mint gremolata. Sounded amazing and the presentation was absolutely beautiful, but it had a slightly odd flavor that I could not put my finger on and that I did not care for. I love lamb and all of the ingredients in the dish. This just didn't hit the mark for me, but I can see how others may really enjoy it. Now for the dessert. Chef's kiss!! We had the chocolate icebox pie. It had a peanut butter pretzel crust with caramelized white chocolate gelato with a raspberry swirl. OMG was it good! We plan to all eat probably each take a bite or two because we were full but we devoured this thing. That's how good it was and I'm not a dessert eater! As for the service, it was absolutely 5 stars from Jordan!! She was very pleasant, very knowledgeable about the menu and provided superior service! Everything was timed perfectly and her check ins with us were perfect as well. Best service we have had in a while. Almost forgot the wine list. Not too large but nice selections for multiple varietals for mostly reasonable prices, considering your dining out. We will definitely return here and especially want to try their happy hour which has some nice food items as well as adult beverages on the HH menu. read more

I had really high hopes based on all the great reviews, but ultimately we had a pretty underwhelming experience. The restaurant is beautiful, but was suspiciously almost empty at 7:30 on a Friday. Probably shoulda been a red flag. We started out with the Crudo. I enjoyed this dish, but my husband thought it was fishy. For our mains, he had the Cappelletti (pasta w. jamón, rabbit, mole), and I had the Bucatini (pasta w. sofrito and shellfish). These dishes couldn't have been more opposite in their execution. The Cappelletti was so intensely flavored, my husband couldn't taste anything at all by the time he finished. My Bucatini, on the other hand, was so bland, I had to ask for salt (and I'm generally hesitant to ask for salt in an upscale restaurant, I feel like it's insulting to the kitchen). Our server was knowledgeable about the wine list and generally helpful, but also just had a weird vibe like he would rather be doing anything else than serving. About half way through our dinner (but still more than an hour before closing) a lot of the restaurant staff, including front and back of house, started congregating around the bar socializing. It got to the point that we actually had trouble flagging someone down when we needed assistance. Maybe it was just an off night. read more

Great atmosphere for date night or a nice dinner with friends. The signature cocktails were unique and delicious. I got the black spaghetti and it was flavorful and the right amount of spicy. My husband got the duck and it was cooked to perfection. To round out the meal we had the chocolate cheesecake with coconut gelato which paired amazing together, the slightly bitter chocolate was balanced well by the sweet coconut. read more
