The menu is limited as clearly the chef puts thought and effort into making each dish tasty. I had a celery salad with gorgonzola dressing that was surprisingly delicious. The dessert - panna cotta with sorbet was subtle and light, lovely. My husband LOVED the risotto. As appealing was the service. Several sharp women worked together seamlessly to make everything... more

We ate here at the beginning of November and had a wonderful meal. The service was excellent and the food was amazing. They have a great wine selection to complement their menu as well. I would definitely go back again the next time I visit Asheville. more

I have been to Fig from lunch and dinner and have never been disappointed. From the moment you walk in you are greeted warmly and taken care of with warmth. The food is inventive and beautifully served. The place is small, so make a reservation. But go and enjoy! more

This is a very comfortable, bright and clean restaurant. Try the homemade soups. Plus, high marks for a very interesting approach to wine service--the restaurant allows you to order half-glasses (which are very generous pours nonetheless). more

First of all, I was disappointed that it wasn't a traditional french restaurant, which is what I thought it was. But, it was very good nevertheless. The service was excellent and the martinis were excellent too. The food was very good, however, if a request for medium well is ignored, that ruins the meal in a way because it has... more

We ate brunch...a party of four. Quiche was a little "rich" for my taste but other entrees at our table of four were very good. The dessert we had... Pot de Creme was excellent! more

We were in Ashville in early October and had a brilliant day on the 8th. Fantastic weather, a really good morning in the arts district meeting and buying some of the work of Jonas Gerard , a super snack and coffee next door at the Clingman Cafe finished off with a trip up the Blue Ridge Parkway to see the... more

Asheville is one of my favorite places for a weekend getaway and in a city full of great restaurants, Fig Bistro still manages to stand out. Tucked in the back corner of the Biltmore Village, Fig has a cozy spot that includes an intimate dining room and wonderful outdoor seating options as well. The service, wine, and atmosphere are all... more

I live in Virginia, so I am not a local, but I quickly learned just how magnificent the food is at FIG a few years ago when it opened. Now, every time I am in Asheville, I make a point of having dinner at FIG and always end up saying, "This is the best food I have ever eaten." Chef... more
