"This is my second time here. The first time, the place was pretty empty so I was not really impressed with it. Only had a drink and the flatbread(which was good). This time there were more people and the place had a good vibe. I felt that the scallop dish was a bit salty and the risotto was a soggy. The fried pickles were good and the drinks were decent. I wish they had more than one port on the menu. This one tasted like a weak grape juice."

"Overall Fig Jam is a decent restaurant. The food was good despite a limited menu; the service was just about as limited. The server described the pork loin as "moist" and then said, "it's just good and it comes tied in rope." I could not stop laughing. My recommdation would be to better inform and train the wait staff on customer service and product knowledge and also to make sure the menu accurately reflects what is in the food. I ordered fried pickles and the dish contained fried pickles, onions, and jalapeño peppers. BIG MISTAKE on Fig Jam to not
Include that on the menu..."

"We arrived on Monday night for dinner we were greeted like old friends. We were graciously seated, and welcomed again. Our delightful server offered up suggestions for each category and told us about the specials. She was knowledgeable and smart with a terrific sense of humor. Having never been here before we followed her advice. The drinks were incredible, my husband had the classic Sazerac and I tried the cocktail with Moonshine and champagne...perfect. We had the crisp pork belly and pimento cheese fritters as appetizers followed by the flavorful trout. For dessert....Marshmallow & Gingerbread Gelato with warm bread pudding. We are still dreaming of this meal. Thank you Fig Jam Kitchen, we will return"

"We were so impressed with Fig Jam! The food was outstanding - in fact, I would say it was one of the best meals I've had in a while (I had the salmon). Our server had a great personality and was passionate about the menu. He did a great job describing the entrees, appetizers and answering our questions. I am spreading the word about this excellent restaurant!"

"My girlfriend and I looked online for an interesting restaurant since we were only in town for a few days. The menu for Fig Jam looked amazing! We made reservations through Open Table for Valentines Day and had no problems getting a table. The restaurant is a cool spot tucked away in Midtown Atlanta. The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was romantic but also could be very casual. The service was great and our server was friendly and helpful with recommedations. I proposed to my girlfriend before dessert and had two sweet endings to the dinner evening as she said yes. We will definitely be back and we would recommend trying it for yourself."

"This was my first time at Fig Jam, despite hearing about it late summer. I am a very picky eater, and not always easy to impress. I tend to have my favorite restaurants that I rotate through, and have just found another to add to the rotation. We had the pimento cheese fritters, which were amazing, and rival the fried goat cheese at Ecco. I had the most perfectly cooked red snapper over quinoa salad, which was delicious. My date had a flatbread dish that was also very good. My only disappointment was that it took me so long to try this place."

The service and food were excellent! We tried almost all of the appetizers as well as the bacon flat bread, cheese and charcuterie plates, scallops, salmon, and wood grilled redfish. I also recommend the fig jam cocktail."

"Had never been to Fig Jam before. Had lunch here w/ a friend. Loved the vibe from the atmosphere. The deco was sort of a modern/earthy feel with lots of woods mixed in with contemporary touches. Really cool........my kind of place. The lunch menu was not exactly extensive, but more than suitable. If you're a meat lover (as myself), you may have a hard time choosing between pork, brisket, beef, lamb. I chose the brisket sandwich with red onion and side of collards. Brisket was great, and au jus dipping sauce was really good. Collard greens were literally the best i've EVER had - anywhere. Friend had the Muscles, which were special of the day, and i tried one - which was excellent as well. Service was attentive. Def coming back."

"STILL kicking myself that I haven't been to visit Fig Jam until last night. Given that the space was, at one time, Wolfgang Puck Express, they have done a remarkable job keeping what was beautiful about it and changing the rest. HOWEVER, there's where the similarities to that dive STOP. Fig Jam has a pretty amazing menu. They could definitely expand their wine list...a lot of that food would pair beautifully with a Rose for example. But the food was top notch. I had the Red Snapper with Quinoa salad and radishes. It was perfect. My date had scallops with a broccoli risotto...cooked to perfection. Our server was Sabrina...she was a little piece of awesome to help guide us through the menu. We'll MOST DEFINITELY be back! Can't wait"
