What a cute spot! They have private rooms where you can sit outside and have your own little mimosa bar. All of the food in the group looked delicious. I just got the American breakfast which was simple yet tasty. But LOOK at this man candy Bloody Mary I got I ate the bacon before the picture because it was just too good. I also got the regular which was still pretty spicy if you don't love spice FYI. But SO GOOD. read more

Plenty of seating, service is super friendly, and the food is delicious. I love the outdoor patio, and it almost feels like you're in a treehouse. I ordered the grilled cheese and tomato basil soup which came with French fries. Yumm! Definitely recommend coming here! read more

Just drove into San Diego for the first time, waiting to check in the Airbnb down the road, figured I'd get some breakfast and coffee found this place and it was not disappointing at all! The food was delicious, I had the apple fritter pancakes and nitro brew, everything was amazing. The place was quiet and peaceful and the staff was very kind. Definitely try it out. read more

Super cute brunch spot with great food! Met up with a friend here and got to sit out near the front of the patio. Our server was really sweet and just the right amount of attentive. My husband and I split a breakfast burrito. It was delicious and super filling! The burrito was huge so definitely a shareable. Coffee & tea were great but they also have alcoholic beverages if you're looking for a more brunch-y vibe. Definitely check out Fig Tree if you're in the area! read more

Was told a 50 min wait...okay we waited exactly 50 min to be told their kitchen was a hour backed up and they are no longer seating anyone. Absolute waste of time, don't bother here. read more

Food: I am vegan. The savory options were incredible; I am not a sweets eater. I loved the food so much that I went back the following day. My expectations were exceeded. Service: Honestly, the service was great, once they acknowledged that I was waiting for a table. It took at least 20 minutes. It wasn't even busy. If I had not been there with a group, I would likely have left. This is an area for improvement. Ambiance: Love the ambiance. Once things got rolling, it was a pleasant experience. read more

Cute place and not too crowded. However, we waited for almost 30 minutes for our breakfasts to arrive. We noticed that the waiters were not hustling food to the other patrons during that time either. When we were finally served our food, my husband's Traditional Benedict was room-temperature, which was absolutely unacceptable. The saving grace was the nice server who deducted the cost of the Benedict from our bill. Long wait times and room-temperature food is a management problem and lack of quality control. read more

Oh my gosh excellent service! We got sat down right away and we had a party of eight people around 10 o'clock. I was expecting to come and have to wait but absolutely no way in the status in the back under the tree, which was absolutely amazing. Angie was our server and she was absolutely amazing very attentive. Absolutely love that she could hear my daughter's Mexican accent, and spoke to her in Spanish. She was so friendly and thoughtful and very helpful and patient with our party. Food was absolutely amazing big portions, which I absolutely loved and everything came out fresh and hot. read more

Perfect brunch spot with wonderful service! My friends and I came in on a Saturday morning after a night out and it was amazing! Their outdoor patio is surf themed and really goes well with the San Diego vibe. Angie was incredibly attentive and made sure we were always taken care of. I ordered the traditional Benedict and definitely recommend it on the focaccia! I also got the man candy Bloody Mary and it was absolutely delicious. Can't wait to come back! read more

A very cute brunch spot a little over half a mile from the water (it's a nice walk!). Menu is expansive and covers classic breakfast options like scrambles, benedicts, and french toasts. We ordered the Spicy Chicken Sandwich, California Breakfast Burrito, the Breakfast Sushi and the Tortilla soup. The soup was excellent - wonderful flavors with tender chicken chunks. I wish I got the large bowl! Breakfast sushi was unique - the plum sauce on top really tied the dish together and the avocado is a must have on top. The rice and egg itself were okay, nothing that noteworthy in terms of flavor and it was a lot of dense rice packed into every roll. It would have been nice if maybe included something else (or with less rice since we had a lot of it leftover). Service was great - super friendly and attentive/ready to take our order. They even brought out a bowl of water for our corgi as we dined outside. read more

Omg - such a cool Brunch spot! Please get the breakfast burrito. It was sooooo good! Staff is so friendly and helpful. It started to rain and no questions asked, they moved us immediately. Cool and hip ambiance. Would probably only recommend when the weather is good enough to go there! read more

Very cute restaurant. Parking isn't very good. It's in a residential location. The staff were very kind and friendly! I was hopeful for more options in the menu but it was very minimal. We all ended up getting the same type of dish. When going on a weekend, be prepared to wait as it was about a 35-45 min wait. The food overall was not spectacular...it was pretty expensive as well. read more

Not worth coming back. Don't understand the high ratings. Long wait for the food to arrive after ordering. They didn't even fulfill my order request when the food arrived. Portion sizes were smaller than expected. read more

I've been here over a handful of times and the service is consistently slow, even during non busy times. The food is hit or miss...and nothing ever comes out piping hot :/ read more

Had a delicious brunch here. The decor is so cute and immersive, there are plants everywhere which I love. We got the chipotle chilaquiles and the short rib Benedict. The service was a little slow, but I think only one waitress was working. read more

Just wow! The menu is amazing especially for breakfast. The food is amazing and the service is great. They're prompt and the ambiance is fun. The patio is great for families with kids. The French toast is out of this world. We ordered the cream cheese berry and my husband ordered the strawberry cream French toast. The coffee cups are huge and the coffee is fresh, not like diner coffee. Sooo good! read more

Nice brunch place we stopped by on the way back to LA. The decor gave a nice beach vibe and they were able to seat us right away. Ordered the crispy pork belly with grits, breakfast burrito, grilled turkey club and the Sausage breakfast sandwich. Also tried the Man Candy Bacon, essentially bacon coated with brown sugar and paprika, very good, it's a bacon meant for all people. All the food was great, especially the Crispy Pork and grits. Great fries and service was excellent. read more

We were staying nearby and heard Fig Tree was a good spot for breakfast so we thought we'd check it out. This is no ordinary breakfast restaurant! It's an indoor-outdoor dining situation with an open air interior and an outdoor patio that is covered. Very cool and unique concept, it felt like we were in Florida or Hawaii. The service was really friendly. I don't remember our server's name but we had many people waiting on us and they were all really attentive and nice. We started with an Iced Cold Brew and a Hot Mexican Mocha, which were both really impressive. The Entrees were also really good. My parents got the "American" breakfasts, which they enjoyed. I decided to branch out and try the Crispy Pork Belly with Grits. I thought it was a really cohesive dish. The presentation was stunning, the pork belly was soft, the grits were bursting with flavor, and the soy marinated boiled egg finished it off perfectly. I also ordered an order of "Man Candy", which is thick cut bacon with brown sugar and paprika. I thought it was delicious! We will definitely come back when visiting San Diego. read more

Our server Tobi was very friendly and attentive and gave us great service. The food was delicious and was served quickly. We especially loved the hibiscus lemonade and the fried chicken sandwich. Also, this spot is baby and kid friendly, which is a plus. read more

Had a great breakfast at Fig Tree Cafe! I ordered a fresh squeezed OJ (so good!) and the breakfast sandwich, and it was absolutely amazing--flavorful, fresh, and so satisfying. I also tried the coffee cake, which unfortunately had a small mishap, but the waitress was quick to replace it. The service was friendly, though the wait time for food was on the slower side. That said, the menu has so many delicious options that I'd definitely come back to try more. A cozy & cute spot with some room for improvement! read more

Fig Tree Cafe - Breakfast Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Pacific Beach, California

Pacific Beach [Lack of] Service We took our time before writing this review. As adults, we learn patience. We might even master reflection. We certainly come to appreciate quality service. When it (quality service) doesn't exist, we should be able to constructively articulate why the review we offer is 0 - 1 star(s). By min 34, of waiting at the Fig Tree Cafe PB location, it was evident that the jars of water (slippery due to condensation) was all that would cover our tables for many more minutes to follow. We knew there was a problem by minute 20, when we looked around and realized that none of the seven (7) tables in our section had any food. The next observation was the standing, looking, and pacing, of one member of the party caddy-corner to ours. What we realized at minute 37, was that they had yet to be served. As we packed our things, the hostess began cutting checks and then taking orders. Four tables who were seated after us, had their orders taken. We chose not to stay for the aftermath but allow us to offer suggestions: 1 -If youre understaffed for the day, that is fine. Check in. 2 -Let the dozens of (potential) customers know that you know they are waiting. Assure them that you will be of service as soon as you can. 3- Don't ignore them. All/Anybof them. 4-Don't take delayed orders, out of order. It adds insult to injury. We wish you a better experience. Ps - "we heard" the food was excellent. But we wouldn't know. read more

Food is always solid. My go to is the huevos rancheros. Madi is also amazing - great service and very pleasant read more

Neat little place , well not really that little . We sat in patio.. so we missed interior decor.. service is top notch . Good coffee. Always a plus . I ordered the eggs Benedict. Sauce was excellent, eggs cooked perfectly, Canadian bacon nice and thick.. and they toasted the English muffin till it was dark brown... Which offers more taste, and a better texture . No one ever does that . Even when you ask for it... Side potatos were tasty.. I also got a side of bacon. Very good . Wife got the meatloaf hash . She enjoyed her hash... They make there own jelly. Which she loved.. I also ordered their coffee cake.. my only item I wish I passed on.. it was terrible, but it wasn't coffee cake either.. it was yellow cake with a very thin layer of crumble with picans. coffee cake should have a lite spice flavor to the cake. And a thick layer of cinnamon sugar crumble on the top. No pecans or nuts of any kind. So hard pass on coffee cake . But the place should be experienced.. oh one other problem.. parking street only . Be prepared for a little walk. And if you can't parallel park.. find another place read more

Cute brunch spot in Pacific Beach. They serve your typical American brunch items, which is what I was craving. The service of the place was okay. My friend is very sensitive to gluten and gave thorough instructions about not putting bread on the plate, but the waitress serving bread on the plate. That's the one big complaint I have about the place. Overall, had a good experience here, and I do recommend trying this place for a cute brunch date! read more

Pretty place but food was very mid. Got 2 Benedict's both not warm. Fruit was old. Bread was stale. Everything felt like it was a couple days old. read more

Got there at 8:30 on a Sunday, had no problems getting seated. Banana yogurt and granola was awesome, the vanilla sweet cream cold brew was also impressive (I'm always hesitant to get coffee at restaurants because it never is like a coffee shop, but this was GOOD). We enjoyed the large menu that offered great options as well as customizations. My friend got the ricotta French toast. Everything was fresh and the waitress was attentive. There are lots of seats outdoors and indoors. We enjoyed our time. read more

I've been to this location about 6x in hopes that the service would improve because I love the food and the ambiance. Unfortunately, I'm out of attempts and will not be coming back due to the slow service. I often don't get my drinks till after I've eaten half my meal, or I get my drinks and the food takes forever to arrive. I always come on a weekday morning, so perhaps they're under staffed during those times. Even just a server offering to take my coffee off of the bill because it came so late would have likely prevented me from writing this review. Hopefully things can change because I would love to come back and have more reliable experiences. read more

We were recommended this place by a friend and it did not disappoint! Every thing we got was SO GOOD! We had the spicy chicken sandwich, perfectly cooked and the grilled turkey sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. I had the hibiscus lemonade which was refreshing and not overly sweet. My gf also really loved the hot sauce they had on the table, we even looked into buying a bottle. I'd highly recommend this place, food was so delicious. read more

Another awesome visit to Fig Tree Cafe! As usual, waited about 20 mins for a table. But also as always, well worth the wait!

Can't add any more photos but the fried chicken sandwich was really good and the bottomless is a great choice too :) read more

Sd has so many great brunch spots but Fig Tree Cafe is definitely near the top of the list! The food is an Asian-country breakfast fusion spot (which is exactly my type of food ) and has some unique choices for entrees. I got the pork belly and grits which was so rich and flavorful. It's definitely a hearty meal and a go to if you love pork belly. The pancakes were so fluffy and decadent the whole table ended up eating off them! I also love the ambience it's a cute shack vibe that uses a lot of natural light and plant elements to make you feel outdoors in a cute beach bungalow. I do have to say sometimes there service is slow but they do seem to be short staffed when I come so have some grace with their servers! Overall, this is a breakfast spot my fam and I love to return to when we are in town! read more
