OMG, out with Caroline Quest and Hannah Nettleinghame for a lovely celebration lunch at 'The Fig Tree 36' and think I have found a little bit of heaven!
The location was idea, the setting intimate with the most amazing service, it was attentive but not in your face. And if you know me I'm a stickler for good service.
We ordered the 3 course set menu and it did not disappoint. In fact the pudding was so nice that I did not have a chance to take a picture before it was down or throats!
The starters were potted pork and Asian fish cakes that were to die for. The fishcakes were a taste explosion in my mouth. Just enough to make me want more.
The mains of Feta and Aubagine tart, a beautiful steak burger (it looked huge in real life!) With Triple cooked chips and my Carbonara two ways. The carbonara was just right with a slight smokey, creamy, loveliness. And the baked carbonara with its crispy coating did a nice job of balancing the meal out.
As for pudding the amazing creamyness of the lemon and lime marscapone in a light crumbly biscuit case and topped with the most perfect meringue. Sensational!
If you have not been there yet, I highly recommend you go and find it now.
Where should I start! The food was amazing, it was probably the best onion bahji, burger and desert I have ever tasted. The 'chocolate!!' desert was just heaven. It included a melt in the middle choc pot alongside honeycomb, brownies, choc biscuits and caramel sauce..!!! The burger was not just any burger... It was a Fig Tree 36 burger. You'll know when you have been there. Also, the hospitality and service was amazing very attentive and ensured service was quick and on time. Thank you so much for having me and my partner can't wait to visit again! Last thing to note is they have a loyalty card where you can get a desert free on your 6th visit.
Had an amazing meal in this fantastic little restaurant. We particularly loved the smoked butter served with the bread! We'll definitely be back.
Unfortunately we only took photos of our starters, but they tasted as good as they look.
A lovely, quaint and quirky place in the back streets near Royal William Yard. The food is outstanding; you will understand why they have a Michelin Bib Gourmand if you dine here.
Have only managed to dine once, for lunch, and off the back of that experience would love to try the Trust the Chef menu, but as I live in Manchester, and only visit Plymouth on weekends, it's not going to happen, sadly.
Birthday surprise. Did " trust the chef" which was great. Food was delicious, good portions, hot and was delivered with a smile.
My wife and I have long wanted to try The Fig Tree, and our anniversary seemed a good excuse! We were not disappointed! The food was amazing, the staff delightful, very welcoming and helpful. There are better tables locations than others due to the layout, we started at the back and were moved later to the front which was a much better, warmer experience. Would heartily recommend and look forward to finding another excuse to go back!
A total gem!. This is most definitely a diamond. Warm and welcoming service. Good atmosphere and generous but superb food. Not a single course disappointed, in fact, every moment was sheer joy. We would certainly return.
Had a lovely evening here for a ‘Trust the Chef’ 3 course vegetarian meal. Everything was delicious - one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time! Loads of flavour and exciting dishes. Really nice to see so much effort put into veggie options, everything was delicious. The house cocktail was amazing too. Service was brilliant, super friendly and helpful. Venue itself is lovely. Food was served at perfect intervals, we weren’t rushed but equally we weren’t sat around getting hungry either. It made for a really perfect evening out, we’ll definitely be going back!
Such a lovely place with amazing foods, the Taste the Chef 3 course set are interesting and great combinations of all, it’s fun not knowing what are you going to have before you taste it yet it’s all surprisingly Good! And the staffs are so professional, attentive, welcoming and friendly, We had a wonderful night here, would definitely recommend it!❤️
We had an absolutely wonderful evening celebrating my friend's birthday last week. The food was just WOW! Everything we had was incredible. The staff was so lovely and friendly. We'll definitely be coming to the Fig Tree @ 36 with my husband soon! What a little gem hidden away in Stonehouse.
Such an amazing experience. The staff were friendly and attentive, food tasted amazing and the tast the chef experience was really amazing experience and excellent value for money. Nothing was too much trouble and the restaurant has a really cosy vibe. Would 100000% recommend and will definitely be going again!
I LOVE this place! We had our work Christmas dinner here, the food and service were outstanding. The atmosphere is very cozy and welcoming, we admired the eclectic decor all evening. The servers were very friendly and we were never without food or drink for the whole evening. Even when it became busy they made time to check on us and bring us anything we needed. Highly recommend!
