text: There is something exceedingly satisfying about having fine food prepared perfectly and my dinner at Fig Tree satisfied existentially To begin with the service was unbelievable quite possibly the best I have ever gotten We went early and dragged our month old along and they were able to accommodate us in a spot that did not ruin anyone elses dining experience The waiter was helpful and managed to convince us to order an appetizer special and the soup special all of which were exceptional The courses came out with perfect timing were cooked perfectly seasoned perfectly and sauced perfectly All of the flavors were balanced perfectly and nothing got lost or overwhelmed in spice They have just started offering a tasting menu if you call ahead apparently so it looks like we will have to hire a sitter
