Just finished up our second visit to the Fig Tree last night and both were three star experiences but for different reasons.Visit 1: Food was exquisite, fully of love and joy, surprises, and impeccable execution. Waiter knew the menu front and back and authentically engaged with us around our selections and satisfaction. Why three stars then? We were seated upstairs in an almost empty dining room far far away from every other paying customer with the exception of a large family with multiple children running around the table and being very loud. We were placed here either because 1) we are people of color or 2) because my partner who is a physician came straight from responding to an on call so that we could make our reservation on time and ended up having to wear scrubs to the restaurant. I would have appreciated transparency about this decision by the hostess as being shoved into a deep dark corner of a restaurant that isn't that busy doesn't feel very good at this price point. Visit 2: Exact opposite experience. Reserved a patio table for Valentine's Day. Great view/ ambiance / table... mediocre everything else. The waitress seemed distant and not so welcoming though she was professional and provided recommendations when asked. She just didn't really seem like she took pride in her job or wanted to be there. Somewhat robotic, going through the motions, but doing nothing to make our meal an *experience* (unlike our first visit). The food was honestly uninspired. I don't know how else to explain it other than to say It tasted like someone sad made it. There was no joy, no surprise, and little complexity to the dishes. The best thing we had was the tuna appetizer and the cheese plate. The veal chop was a good quality cut of meat, but the sauce and sides left much to be desired and I did not eat even half of my food. Same for the Mediterranean barramundi, which was the special. This one definitely had more flavor, but still felt very much like something we could make at home with ease. It also needed salt. The waitress never inquired as to why more than half of our meal went uneaten, and just asked us if we wanted itThe beignets and the cheese cake we had for dessert were also just alright. The first time I went to the Fig Tree, I left saying hands down this is the best meal I've had in Charlotte, and this place can compete with fine dining experiences I've had in SF, LA, and NY. I can no longer say this with confidence after our second time around. We will probably be back given that they are STILL outperforming most if not all restaurants in Charlotte... but just makes me sad that I know they're capable of more and better and they did. not. deliver.
