I've been to the Fig Tree three times recently. Twice with my wife when I ordered very expensive $200 bottles of wine. On each of those occasions the service was sheer perfection, like the food always is. They fawn over you. On one occasion I went with business associates who don't drink and we declined the wine. We had a reservation for six but showed up with three. The waiter was very snobby, acting better than us. He was obviously annoyed that on a slow night probably one of his only tables was only going to spend about $120. A restaurant with these prices and a world-class chef should ALWAYS treat customers like royalty. Because of that I cancelled another dinner there at which I would have spend over a thousand dollars with six people. Despite all this, the food is always consistently phenomenal and the ambience is first class.
Pros: food quality, wine list, menu choices
Cons: snobby, expensive
