I love the idea of a rotating menu based on what's fresh and available in the area from day to day. We started the meal off with Burnt Eggplant and Housemade Cottage Cheese with brown bread, and the flavors were so rich and delicious, we ordered more bread to finish the eggplant and cottage cheese. The Slow Roasted Berkshire Pork Loin with hazelnut romesco was super flavorful and had a melt-in-mouth texture. Strangely, our favorite item of the night was a side of Yukon Gold Potato Purée. The consistency was so thick and creamy, truly to die for. Everything about our dinner was fantastic, from the ambiance of the restaurant, to the service, drinks, timing of the courses, and dessert. I hope to be back so many more times to experience the different seasons and ingredients with Fig.

Our server, Bobby, was so incredibly knowledgeable about the food, preparation, and made great recommendations. I wish we had a Bobby atevery restaurant. HOWEVER, if you aren’t able to make a reservation, I would not recommend sitting at the community table. Wethought it would be fine but the other guests talked about some pretty divisive topics and it made our meal very uncomfortable(we just sat silently and ate our food with heads down-we didn’t want to be pulled in). Not the restaurant’s fault at allbut be aware that you never know who you’re going to sit with or what they will discuss.

You will have to pay, but there will be no buyers remorse here. The reservation sellout is with good reason so do whatever you need to make this a meal on your list when you visit or live in Charleston. The staff were extremely helpful andeverything we had was extremely delicious, all the way to the dessert Miso Fish, Duck Salad, Cheese Gnocchi, Seafood overCarolina rice, and Local Strawberry dessert (my butchering of dish names). The Carolina rice in the seafood broth might havebeen the best taste of anything I have ever had. Just do what you need to, to have a meal here.
