I have been to this restaurant at least a dozen times in the past. The atmosphere has always been bistro-like and we've always enjoyed the mussels. Last night we were seated at a two-top in the middle of the restaraunt. A large, noisy crowd came in and when the waiter came to take our order I mentioned that I couldn't hear her. I asked about another table in the adjacent room but a couple was just sitting down at it. No gesture was made to move us to another more comfortable table. I could not hear my partner and I could barely hear the waiter. The wait between courses was long. The fish meuniere was awful. While the fish was cooked nicely it sat on a bed of mushy, tasteless mashed potatoes. At least one inch of butter (not sauce) floated around the potatoes. Very unappetizing. My partner's scallops were good but sat on a raft of potato cake with no flavor and a weird spongy texture. We had dessert which was similarly uninspired. I chose this restaurant for my birthday dinner because it has been so reliably good in the past. I asked to speak to the shift manager on my way out. He was sympathetic but did not apologize. He just kept saying "thank you for your feedback." So here's my feedback and I'm not coming back. The quality of the service and the food here has really degenerated.

Food was great, particularly the Croque Monsieur and omelette du jour and the kitchen made the omelettes vegetarian for two of us. We had a group of 7 and our main plates didn't come out together - it was a good 5 minutes before the second group of plates were delivered and then another few for the last plate. It was pretty unusual for all the times we've eaten there so it's not going to keep us from returning.

Five Star Food with One Star Ambiance Our experience for a 630 pm reservation for a table in the tent was miserable due to the extremely cold temperatures. Even with coats and scarves we shivered through a meal. Food was fabulous although the hot dishes quickly got cold on the plate. It was a cool evening (50s) but it was near 60 in their dinning area. Not fun. We moved to a warmer table, to little avail. Sad as we had good recommendations and were anticipating a very nice evening.

Thanksgiving Day lunch - the food was delicious - turkey of course, but also a flounder on a bed of spinach and potatoes that was crispy, lemony and delicious. A starter of mushroom celery root soup which was rich and creamy. The butter - the butter they serve with the bread is to die for, with a pinch of the accompanying salt crystals. Pear and cranberry tart did not even need the vanilla ice cream it was so good. Wine list is excellent although I am not a wine person, nice to see a kir royal on the drinks list, and the service was so good. Dennis was our very good and helpful server.

We have always enjoyed our time at the girl & the fig. The service on this visit was wonderful, the food delicious - only thing that spoiled our evening was we could only be seated on the patio and while it was charming and temperature was great, the fact that the table next to us had their dog with them and there was another table with 3 out of control kids (one even throwing himself on the floor between tables) just sort of ruined the evening - this is not an inexpensive dining facility and while I appreciate parents want to take kids, I'm not so keen on dogs in fine dining or kids that are allowed to just make tons of noise and roam around the dining space. It just took the sparkle off what we were hoping would be a nice intimate dinner.

I’ve eaten there a few times but last night was a disappointment. There was a large, noisy group which made things uncomfortable. The appetizers were good but my entree was not. The steak was tough and there were a ridiculous amount of frites which were soggy and barely warm.

What a lovely place to enjoy brunch in Sonoma. Beautiful seating areas inside and on a beautiful day, their outdoor seating is perfect for people watching. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. We were seated next to the window and the table setting was gorgeous. We started off with cocktails and appetizers: a glass of bubbles, Fig Kiss, Balsamic Bloody Mary, and OJ. Great selection of fig cocktails. For appetizers we ordered: Roasted Butternut Squash Soup - Creamy and flavorful. It just warms the soul. So good. Pork Belly & Brussels Sprouts - I love how the Brussels sprouts were cooked well with lots of flavor from the pork belly. They weren’t soggy and they were not greasy. Well done! Duck Liver Mousse - Yum! The brioche slices were the perfect texture to go with the mousse, and the apple butter complemented the mousse well. I love how our server offered us more bread since we still had mousse in our baby jar. Thank you! The brunch and lunch menu had many delicious entrees and options. It was truly hard to decide. But we managed to make some appealing choices: Omelette du Jour - Perfectly wrapped omelette. Tasty and seasoned well. Brisket Hash - Big chunks of brisket and perfectly cooked potatoes with a pair of fried eggs. Smoked Salmon Rillettes Tartine - Gorgeous and delicious. Love that 6-min egg. Fig Burger - Beautiful pink in the middle Although we were stuffed, we had to have dessert! We ordered: Profiteroles - yummy Salted Fig Caramel Trifle - so luscious and creamy and orgasmic!!! Loved this so much!! When I’m Sonoma, this place is a must!

Most of food was very good - fig and arugula salad excellent, as was trifle dessert. Frites are very good. I asked if "medium" for steak was bloody. Told no, just pink. Steak was very bloody when I got it, sent it back. Took a long time to get plate back, while date ate (and nicely shared). Then barely cooked more. Just said I would take steak home. Had a gift certificate to apply to bill. Told waiter at beginning, said no issue, he would take care of it. Certificate is not small. Turned it in with credit card for overage. Full amount charged to credit card. Our waiter no where to be seen. Luckily another waiter saw the distress and came over and helped. Our waiter did fix and apologize, but not a pleasant way to end date.

Food was good and service was nice and attentive, though few things stood out for us. Even so, I liked their homely ambience and their patio is cute as well. We ordered the artisan bread, steak tartare, duck confit, pork chop, flounder meunière, fig caramel trifle, and two drinks — the virgin Pimm and the Fig-Fashioned. Bread was good (hard to go wrong with bread); the steak tartare was really good (probably my favorite), as it was light and flavorful, with the right amount of tartness and saltiness; the duck confit was tender, flavorful, and crispy — quite nice; the flounder and the mashed potatoes that accompanied it were buttery — good, but typical; the pork chop was on the dry side but the farro and pear-based sauce suited it well; the trifle was a little too sweet for our liking but the fig caramel was fragrant nonetheless; the virgin Pimm was refreshing, the Fig-Fashioned was quite strong. Overall good experience, but only slightly better than standard for the price point.

We live in Sonoma and fig is our favorite place to bring friends. The service is always friendly, the french menu has a nice variety of favorites as well as new season items. Indoor seating during fall/winter is cozy and warm, and the outdoor patio is wonderful in the spring/summer. Perfect Sonoma spot!

Honestly, I think the recommendations we got built up too much of an expectation. It was nice, but not really enough to make it our most-definitely-for-sure go-to place in Sonoma. With that said, the food was good and the atmosphere pleseant. Nice place.

Excited to have dinner at restaurant We had 5:45 reservations, there were people waiting outside and the bar was crowded. We were seated promptly in a 2-top table tucked in a corner. The restaurant was lively and noisy. We had personable service by René who explained the menu to us. I was impressed that staff brought out dishes right away despite how busy the place was. We ordered brussel sprouts, scallops, Bistro Plat Du Jour- lardon salad, pan seared game hen, carmel apple upside down cake and the wine pairing. Everything was delicious, flavorful and tasty with the exception of the hen which was a bit over cooked and dry to my liking. Regardless I will return to try the rest of the menu.
