Fig Tree Cafe

"My visits to Fig Tree Cafe have been numerous, and each time, the experience is fantastic. As we entered in, we were immediately seated at our table by 8:02 AM. Their Omelette stands out, prepared and served alongside two slices of sourdough bread, perfectly complemented with butter for that rich, comforting taste. Additionally, their French fries, seasoned with just the right amount of garlic, are an absolute delight. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a top-notch breakfast experience!"

"Visited: 1/21/2024 Location: Liberty Station Wait time: 45 mins (even on a rainy day) Seated: 1pm, Sunday Server: Juan (5⭐) Ordered: Short Rib Benedict (1⭐) upgrade with Truffle Fries, Fig Jam n Ricotta French Toast (5 ⭐), Man Candy Bloody Mary (5⭐), and Sparkling Strawberry Screwdriver (1⭐). Food served 15 mins after order made. I have eaten here a few times and never been disappointed. However, today's visit was quite the opposite. It wasn't the service because our server Juan was EXCEPTIONAL. My daughter ate lunch here the day before, 1/20/2023, and had the Short Rib Sandwich and Man Candy Bloody Mary. Because she enjoyed her meal so much, she wanted to come back the next day and treat me. I was all for it because I've dined here many times. Since she just dined the day before, I could say that my review is not exaggerated and valid. Eggs benedict is always my go to when I am eating out for breakfast/brunch, and since my daughter raved about the short ribs, that is what I ordered (short rib benedict). The poached eggs were over done (the yolks are suppose to pop and run once poked). My first bite was a disappointing shock to my taste buds. There was no flavor in the meat and the english muffin was water soggy. What first came to mind was how am I tasting no flavors but blandness like water? Egg tasted like an egg, of course, but I had expected some other flavors like seasonings from the meat and a slightly toasted muffin. Yes, Juan was notified and he apologized. He offered to have the dish remade. I declined because I felt grossed out with the water soaked egg muffin and tasteless ribs. I thought it over as my daughter continued to enjoy her french toast which I tried and loved it (description to follow below). I asked Juan if I could try the short rib sandwich instead since that's what my daughter raved about yesterday. I bit into the sandwich and it was the same result as the eggs benedict. My daughter tried it for comparison to the day before, and agreed it did not taste the same from what she ate the day before. I had to think about it and discussed it with Juan, and figured out that it was the short ribs possibly/most likely. This batch was potentially made without the correct amount of seasonings. My daughter tried both my dishes (short rib eggs benedict and sandwich). She definitely agreed that comparing what she just ate the day before was not the same batch and flavorings. I am sure whoever made the short rib batch that day may have forgotten if they added enough spices and did not do a taste test before saying it was ready for the days meals. Fig N Ricotta French Toast: I'm partial to figs. I highly recommend this dish. Fig n ricotta stuffing was delish. I would come back for the Man Candy Bloody Mary, and the Sparkling Strawberry Screwdriver was mehhh. I hope this was helpful. I do recommend eating here since I have been here many times."

"We went there after a service at fort Rosecrans. We had brunch during the week. They stated on their website that they didn't take reservations but I called them in advance and told them we had had 25 people coming and they did accommodate us. With that many people service was a little slow but the food was excellent"
