Fig tree was amazing! I hadn't been back in years and it's nice to see the food is still super good, service is friendly and the place is so cute and clean! I ordered a chai and the berries French toast and it was so good! Also got garlic fries on the side and it was heavenly. Highly recommend! read more

The pancake/French toast sampler was amazing. The apple fritter pancake was the best. I could eat that forever. The fig and ricotta french toast was very delicious. The lemon pancake was also very good but my least favorite out of the three. I also got the short rib eggs Benedict which was very good. The short rib was tender and juicy. I didn't get much flavor from the hollandaise. I was not a fan of their ketchup because of its aftertaste. Maybe I'm just too used to ketchup. The service was ok, our waiter seemed to be busy and understaffed because we didn't see them for a while and had to get our own refills on water. The cafe was also kind of dark and there were some birds flying around that we had to dodge. I would go back for that apple fritter pancake. read more

My mom and I came here on a Friday for breakfast. It wasn't that busy. I didn't know the restaurant was pretty much all outside and it was kinda cold. The heater went out halfway through our meal. I got the short rib benedict and my mom got the apple fritter & lemon curd pancakes. They were very yummy but sugary. The food was kinda cold so idk if it was sitting there for a bit before we got it. After we got our food, our server didn't check on us. We had to ask a different server for our bill. Mid food and bad service. I probably wouldn't come back. read more

I took my Wife, mom and grandma here for mother's Day a week after mother's Day to beat the traffic. My grandma and mom just got regular eggs sausage and pancakes my wife got the lemon curd pancakes I got a turkey meatloaf pesto hash. My hash was good but it was all one note it needed something to cut thru, my grandma and mom enjoyed their plates but my wife didn't enjoy her lemon curd pancakes the lemon was to strong and she had to wipe it off . I will go back and pick other items cause they do have a nice menu and the customer service was good. read more

Talked myself into walking by and trying some breakfast. Def a disappointment, trucker cafe style food. Only thing fresh were the eggs, hopefully not the cheapest eggs on the market but probably so. I had the American, it came with the thinnest bread ever, was supposed to be sourdough, they str8 lied, thinking cuz its white its sourdough, nahhhhh it wasnt. I dont like the no chicken sausage option, possible too pricey for them. I expected more but it def gives off that 'no one cares' feel. Cruise by Second Nature for some legit cooking ingredients. read more

Great cafe down the block from our AirBnB. Great outdoor vibe, delicious food, varied menu and nice staff. We had the breakfast sandwich with sausage, short rib Benedict, lemon ricotta pancakes and vegan crispy cauliflower with soy chorizo, vegan egg and hollandaise sauce. Breakfast potatoes were awesome. read more

My husband and I stopped in for breakfast a couple weeks ago and had a great time. We were sat right away which was super lucky for a Saturday morning. Our server was super nice and helpful.

Drove from LA to San Diego for a dog pool party on Sunday, June 14. We decided to have breakfast and we took our time to find a good spot. I have to say fig jam did catch my attention to this place. I love everything fig. We ordered Chilaquiles, Huevos rancheros, and the French toast sampler and latte coffee drink. Food was great but coffee was ehh. Our server was awesome. Friendly and attentive. But I have to mention that the young blonde server may need a bit more of customer service training. Something was up with her.lol read more

Love this place. Eva was our server and super sweet and attentive. Only thing is the bowl that the soup was in was super shallow so it got cold very fast, but the truffle potatoes are so good. read more

First time coming in here after a marathon we ran, though they did have a wait time due to the overall people that came in that day, IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT! I ordered the steak Benedict and boy the food was GREAT! The setting, the vibe was there! Only issue is the parking, if by any chance you come in like the day we came in, you'll have a hard time looking for a spot, but other than that, will totally comeback here! read more

Had breakfast here with my mom and her dog, which worked out perfectly because the patio is super dog-friendly. We grabbed a table outside--it's such a cute setup. Even though it's totally open-air, the trees and plants make it feel kind of tucked away and cozy. I ordered the chipotle chilaquiles and WOW. So good. The sauce had just the right amount of kick, and the chips stayed crispy--not that sad, soggy mess you sometimes get. My mom got the Benedict and liked it too, but I definitely won that round. Also had a honey lavender latte and now I'm obsessed--wish I had one right now honestly. read more

Solid Brunch Spot with Some Hits and One Miss cute, plant-filled patio vibe drew us in right away. It's got that relaxed PB charm, perfect for a casual weekend brunch. I went for the Crispy Pork Belly and Grits, and wow, the pork belly was absolutely perfect in my book: super juicy, incredibly flavorful, and that ideal fatty crispiness that makes it indulgent without being overwhelming. The grits were a totally new thing for me, and the first few bites were amazing--rich and tasty. But halfway through, the sauce started to feel a bit too heavy and salty for my taste (it was pretty drenched), so I didn't finish it all. I get that it might appeal to folks who love bold, savory flavors, though! My husband got the Crispy Chicken Sandwich, which he really enjoyed--crispy exterior, juicy inside, well-seasoned, and overall flavorful. Solid choice. We added a side of Thick Cut Bacon, and honestly, this was the only real disappointment. It wasn't thick at all, and the flavor came off like a weird experiment with clashing seasonings that just didn't work together. Skip this one. To end on a high note, we shared the Berry Sweet French Toast, and it was delicious--not overly sweet, just the right balance to hit the spot and leave us satisfied. Overall, a good experience with some standout dishes. Service was friendly, and the outdoor seating is lovely. read more

Fig tree is a cute little restaurant. The food was okay, the potato's were dry and the eggs Benedict were good but nothing extraordinary. Our server was pretty bad, she kept forgetting about refilling our drinks and quite frankly, she wasn't very nice. The atmosphere It's really cute! read more

Cute and delicious brunch spot! Perfect to sit outside in the sun. My friend got the breakfast sandwich - the brioche bun was amazing. I got the veggie omelette, the goat cheese was a great addition. The gluten free toast was not my favorite, a bit too thin and crispy. The chai latte is a must! Service was quick and friendly. We'll be back! read more

The French Toast was scrumptious. Staff was friendly and accommodating, also. We only had breakfast, but I'd recommend it.

I love this spot. Not sure what's not to love. They an amazing outdoor space. Plenty of healthy and not so healthy options. The portions are massive...in a good way! Also, kid friendly. Winner! One of our favorites. read more

Tobi was an Amazing waiter! Very attentive and had a great smile! He was a great server to have with our group of 20! Thank you Fig Tree PB!

The main entrance is gorgeous. The giant fig tree is enormous. Our server, Mark, was on top of everything. We ordered the french toast/pancake sampler with lemon ricotta pancakes, lemon strawberry french toast, and berry sweet french toast. It was delicious, especially the lemon strawberry french toast. My husband loved the crispy pork belly & grits. Thank you Mark for the recommendation. We tried a traditional breakfast, as well as the short rib sandwich. Our food runner, Axel, was super nice as well. The manager, Eva, and hostess, Maggie were also very friendly. The restrooms were clean also. We will definitely come back on our next visit. read more

I can't believe I snoozed on my review for this spot! Despite the mixed reviews and the inconvenient parking, it's still a great place to mingle or go solo. I like this specific location for the following reasons: - It's very feminine yet welcoming to all. I feel like an enchanted albeit probably hungover fairy whenever I eat breakfast here because the patio is situated beneath a beautiful tree. In fact, I'm thinking of making up Mother's Day brunch here soon because it's the perfect mix of chic and lowkey. Perfect for all the moms at any age--messy buns, no makeup, leggings, or all done up! - The food has a homemade quality and I've never been disappointed. - Service was always standard for me without anything to complain about. - I'm currently daydreaming about their arugula truffle potatoes. I've even recreated them at home a few times but nothing beats getting out and having a friendly person serve them to you while you're enjoying a morning outside of your pjs. I live in southeast San Diego and I don't mind driving and circling for parking here once in a while. I will admit that this location is more pedestrian-friendly because it's situated in a way that's best accessed by locals, but it's a cute location and I prefer it over the others so Fig Tree PB... I choose you *big hand heart*. read more

Cute weekend brunch spot. Lots of outdoor seating and dog friendly. Staff has been top notch every time I've been here. The breakfast sushi, burrito and Benedict's are all solid choices. Tried the French toast sampler for the first time and the fig jam ricotta was perfection! Until next time! read more

We had a great waiter Jake. Friendly and good service. My second time here first time for my husband. We just dropped our youngest son at the airport and stopped in on the trip home. I got the breakfast sushi. I had it my first time here and really like it. I also wanted the apple fritter pancakes so my husband was nice enough to order them so I could have both. The pancakes are delicious and I would recommend them. Happy we have leftovers of both for breakfast tomorrow. Glad they had fly fans for the tables so we had no problems. read more

Their eggs are so fluffy, like clouds. Our waiter was kind, patient and helpful - and kept their coffee (which is roasted dark and delicious) coming. We sat on the patio and even though it was a rainy day it was so warm with the heaters and a calm atmosphere for our meal. read more

Reliable brunch spot :) my favorite part is probably the ambiance of their outdoor seating. Feels like you're in a tree! lol. I've been a couple of times, and I'll say their egg breakfast dishes are average. Nothing amazing but no complaints. What I had for the first time though was their crispy pork belly with Gouda grits... OMG. I did feel my arteries being clogged by the dish but it was fabulous. Really makes me want to try more of their niche dishes. Their breakfast drinks/lattes are really good to me...but the coffee drinker I was with said their latte barely tasted like coffee but it was a yummy dessert just fyi. Also my chai flavor was good but it was almost room temperature when it arrived. read more

Very cute cafe with cozy wooden covered outdoor area! Nice lights and decor and casual ambiance. Servers were very friendly and kind! The drinks came quickly, food took a bit but must meant it was fresh! The rose latte was very nice and had good balance of coffee and rose flavor. Got the traditional Benedict, the focaccia was nicely toasted, the egg yolk was runny and the potatoes were nice and crispy. Hoped there'd be a bit more flavor but filling and solid meal! read more

Was looking forward to my first visit here. Service is far below average. At the hostess stand. We waited 5 minutes. The place looked empty. I thought they were closing up for the day. Food is average. The egg frittata was not fully cooked and they took it back. We waited 20 minutes, no one told us what was going on with the meal. The chili quillas eggs also average. Will not go back. Too many youngsters serving the guests and are more interested in chatting together in the back. read more

This place is super cute with lots of outdoor seats. Really good Bloody Mary and the food here is also really good. I got the breakfast sandwich and the bread was perfectly toasted and the flavor was super balanced. Would definitely come back and get this again. Only critique is that the food came out super slow. I was almost done with my drink before the food came out. But besides the slow service our server was super friendly and we got seated super quick and the food came out hot and super delicious. read more

Late review, was going through old food photos and was reminded that I didn't review this place! I do not typically order grits but somehow decided to order the crispy pork and grits dish. I was on vacation in the area, and this was right down the street from where I was staying. Very big surfer vibes, so SD. Great vibes, except I remember there were a few flies that just would not leave me alone. Still I remember these buttery savory grits were amazing! Definitely recommend the grits. The hibiscus lemonade was also delicious, and made for a great combo. read more

Came here for brunch. I thought the food was good I ordered the eggs Benedict and my friend ordered the French toast. I had 2 issues here- the table we were seated as was dirty so that threw me off immediately. My meal was cold when it arrived which bothered me but I thought it was tasty. My friends French toast tasted great. Not sure if I would come back because of those issues but it's a cute spot read more

Surprising went around 10am and it wasn't jam packed. The food is good but I was disappointed with the coffee. When it first arrived there were the dregs from the bottom of the pot. I asked for a new cup and I'm pretty sure my waitress gave me the exact same cup... When the new cup arrived my companion said it looks like spices so maybe that's their blend, so I drank it. Surely enough by the end I knew it was just the bottom of the barrel. At the end the waitress asks if I would like a refill and I said no. She reminds me it's endless refills and I'm still saying no but my companion asked for a cup to go. No coffee bits in their cup... but they didn't like it and asked for me to bring it in to throw it away. Also, make it make sense they charge $3 for man candy on the standard breakfast but only .75 more on the sides cost... read more

Great experience, Toby and Jason took great care of us . Great atmosphere and staff. Great place

This is such a cute location. I came for breakfast right when they opened and it was such a great vibe sitting in the outdoor patio area. Service was great! She was attentive at just the right amount. I tried the fig and ricotta stuffed French toast and it was good but a little too sweet for me. I would love to come back and try something different - maybe a little more savory. Street parking only but there were quite a few options when I went. The surrounding residential area may have extra spots as well. I love this area as it's so close to the beach! read more
