Located in a old house, divided rooms with an amazing embience allows diners an amazing evening. We chose Fig Tree for a birthday dinner and it did not disappoint. We arrived and were and brought upstairs, to the front room, to a table window side with a view to uptown. An amazing wine room also was in our view, which after reviewing the menu they have a great list of wines by both the bottle and glass to enjoy! We started with foie gras, which melted in our mouth. And, the fried plantain it sat on gave the entire dish an amazing texture and flavor. Each entree is served with a salad, of which you can decide between the house or upgrade to a ceasar. I enjoyed the house salad which had the most amazing dressing and was a perfect size. On to the entrees...we enjoyed the lamb chops and lobster. Both dishes were amazing. Dessert, save room. The chocolate cake was amazing and they adorned the plate with "Happy Birthday" in a chocolate glaze.
Fig Tree will be a spot that I will enjoy again, especially for a special event. Food, service and ambience make it one favorite restaurants in Charlotte.
