I have no words, our server’s knowledge and manners were impeccable. We had an appetizer, two drinks, two entrees and a dessert, and I could not find a single bad thing to criticize! Everything was delicious beyond words and at the same time every course was very balanced! I highly suggest every person within the Charlotte area to try this restaurant at least once if not more times. I hope my review summarizes how pleased and full I felt after I left last night, but in order to experience the same feelings yourselves you will have to try them out!!! ❣️❣️❣️

My wife and I had been to the Fig Tree Restaurant over a decade ago, and we didn’t recall it as one of our favorites. However, tonight’s dinner wiped that memory away and made it into a fabulous memory.
The Caesar Salad was crisp and fresh, with homemade Caesar dressing with real anchovies! The fresh focaccia bread came with garlic spread, we enjoyed amazing wines, my wife’s Filet Mignon was perfectly cooked, as was my Elk Chop, and the Crème Brûlée was delicious.

I can’t say enough about this restaurant. It’s a great place to have a quiet meal. Atmosphere is very romantic. Wine list, appetizers, main courses, dessert and more! I hope I am able to go again. Thank you for making my birthday so special!!!

Always the best experience.
An old foodie couple who goes out to try new restaurants every week told me that their favorite restaurant is Fig Tree without hesitation. The first time I tried it, it instantly became our favorite too.
I recommended it to my friends, and we had a party of 7 everyone agreed it was the best fine-dining restaurant they’d ever been to. With every bite, you can tell the chefs truly put their heart and effort into the food.
Our server, Justin, added extra charm to the experience with his great sense of humor. making the evening even more memorable.

We came here to celebrate our anniversary and had a wonderful experience. The service was great. They had numerous options on the menu that sounded great. My partner had the Chilean Sea Bass and I had the veal. Both were incredible. They have an expansive wine list and a decent selection of cocktails. For desert my partner had the cheesecake and I had the peanut butter entremet. Both were mouthwatering. If you’re celebrating a special occasion and are looking for a nice dinner I recommend making a reservation here.

A Culinary Love Letter at The Fig Tree ✨
If you’re looking for the ultimate romantic dining experience in Charlotte, The Fig Tree delivers in spades. From the moment we walked in, the intimate ambiance set the tone—low lighting, warm tones, and just enough old-world charm to feel like a quiet escape from the everyday.
The service was flawless: attentive without hovering, informed without being rehearsed. Every course felt like it had its own story. The interplay of flavors and textures was nothing short of sublime—each bite perfectly balanced and thoughtfully composed. Truly a chef’s kiss moment from start to finish.
But let me tell you—do not skip dessert. The in-house patisserie staff clearly doesn’t mess around. Every confection was a work of art, crafted with flair and finesse that left us speechless (and borderline licking the plate).
The Fig Tree isn’t just a meal—it’s an experience, and one we won’t soon forget. Highly recommend for anniversaries, date nights, or whenever you want to feel a little spoiled.

First of all, thank you so much to the Fig Tree staff for considering my special request. It was so random but I really appreciate the fact that they carried it out. The food was amazing and the portion sizes were great. They were definitely worthy of their prices. Overall, it was a really good experience. Can’t wait to come back again!

We recently celebrated our wedding at the Fig Tree – we rented out the bottom floor of the restaurant for our ~40 guests. Jane and the team were great to work with. They put together an event menu with us, and were more than happy to create custom options not typically on their menu, such as a chicken dish, lava cakes, and a wedding cake. We had looked at other restaurants with private event spaces in Charlotte, and they were all very unwilling to modify the set menu choices – we really we appreciated the flexibility at the Fig Tree! We used the outdoor patio area for cocktail hour and then came inside for a cozy candle-lit dinner, which SO delicious. The service was also excellent, as always. Thank you Fig Tree!

Had high hopes for this place, and Justin was amazing. It started off well with the introduction of the menus, which offered a large wine selection and 8-9 entree options along with the specials.
We began with the escargot, and calling it delicious is just the start; it had flavor from the first bite to the last. The sauce was fantastic, and Justine mentioned you’d want more bread just to finish the sauce — and we did.
I had the lamb loin, which was perfectly cooked, and the polenta cakes were tasty.
My wife chose the sea bass, which started well, but once she reached the middle, it went downhill. It was raw and couldn’t even be cut with a knife. Another waiter took it to the back, and you’d think they would cook a new one, since she only took two bites. But no, they reheated it, and we’re pretty sure they microwaved it, as there was steam coming off the filet, and the mashed potatoes looked the same as what she had eaten. The fish was just placed on top of the plate and was nowhere near the quality of the original presentation.
She did enjoy the mocktail mule — it was light and refreshing. I had the tequila old fashion, but unless you like tequila, I’d pass (thought I’d try something new). Big mistake.
The lemon crème brûlée was okay but did not live up to the hype.
Parking can be difficult if it’s busy, and they are only open for dinner.
If it weren’t for the bad sea bass experience, I could easily rate this as a four-star restaurant. But for that price, no one should be served microwave-reheated food.

Superb food, outstanding service in a charming and unique venue. We loved the foie gras, beggar’s purse, sea bass, salad, focaccia, elk chop, cocktails, wine and grapefruit dessert. Our first restaurant visit in Charlotte. We’ve never visited before. Made us want to move here. Thank you Ben, our server.
