My preference is juicy cheeseburger, not dry burger. There was a huge line when we were there, but the line moved pretty quickly; however, there was very limited seating inside, so you might have to get this burger to go. Since it was so busy, the restaurant wasn't the cleanest of all places. They do have a bathroom, but that is also in need of some work. There really aren't yes many places to eat out around this town, so I think it is worth a try, but for me it was a no.

The food and coffee here are so good!…read more We were here for breakfast. You seat yourself, then a waitress will come bring you menus and water. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The wait staff was super friendly. I had the corn fritters with streaky bacon as well as a mocha. My boyfriend had the breakfast burrito and a latte. The corn fritters had actual whole kernels of corn in them which I loved. It was a relatively light, healthy meal. And the streaky bacon in New Zealand overall is so amazing. I wish we had that kind of bacon in America. The mocha was also great...nice and smooth. My boyfriend said his meal was really good too. The food was so fresh, something I'm not used to having.

But, we were feeling tacos for dinner and it popped up as the first suggestion on Google Maps. Walking up to the stall, it was packed full of patrons eating outside, so a good sign. We got four tacos and I've detailed my thoughts below: The Bushman: there was a massive amount of pork belly and the sweet onion reduction which was good, but the huge amount led to mush when I picked up the taco. The integrity of the tortilla was hugely compromised by the toppings, so I wished there was a double tortilla situation. The Stockman: one of my favorites with the green hot sauce they have made from tomatillos and jalapeños. The chipotle créme fraiche were just three big circles on the taco, but it ended up being incredible to cut the richness from the brisket. The Fisherman: first bite and it was way salty and acidic, but I persevered through to a second, which was better. I thought that the fish itself was good, but the balance from the toppings was lacking. The Ken Tuckymwan: my absolute favorite. The freshness from the mango chunks cut through the richness from the fried chicken and that chipotle mayo. I really enjoyed this with the hot sauces they offered. Overall, the integrity of the tacos were really poor as the tortilla almost disintegrated after the second bite. But, the tacos pack a punch of flavor that makes the mess worth it.

I'm not sure if the entrees change by the day/meal, but when I was there, the options were mostly Mediterranean (chicken tagine, mint yogurt meatballs, chickpeas, and various salads). All the ingredients were incredibly fresh and had wonderful flavors. I love the concept of slower and healthier foods being served in accessible and easy way, and Big Fig is a great example of that. I didn't get to try their coffees or desserts, but have heard great things about them.
