Café Fig

Cute, quaint, and nice facelift for the old Hotel Figueroa. I haven't eaten there yet, so the jury is still out on the food. But the prices for DTLA are reasonable and the service is very personable and professional. I will be going back to try their lunch.

People, this is just a cafe inside a hotel. It's not worth dining here when there are so many other restaurants in downtown LA. The only reason I chose to dine here is because it had four stars on Yelp and is a ten minute walk from the convention center. No, I didn't have an enjoyable dining experience. The hostess sat my party of two at a tiny table in the middle of the room, next to another tiny table where a couple was already sitting. The tables were a foot apart from each other. I was sitting closer to the other party than my own. There were a couple booths available, but I assumed they were only seating parties of four, until I witnessed they seated a party of two at one of the booths afterwards. So uncomfortable. The other couple didn't utter a single word while they were eating. Then my food was brought to the table BEFORE my drink. I spoke up and asked the waiter where my drink was because I was under the assumption that drinks are customarily delivered before the food. He asked if I wanted him to take the food? Where was he going to take the food until the drinks were delivered? Is this a new trend I am not aware of where drinks are delivered after the meal? I said no, just asked where my drink was. Soon afterwards, he delivered my latte to the table. It was hot, so it was obviously recently made, and not sitting around somewhere. The chilaquiles were fine, but my $10.75 cacao latte was the worst latte I have ever had. Too much cinnamon, but I was not going to bother with returning it and having it remade. Afterwards, I never saw the waiter again. Had to ask someone else for the bill. She was nice, but too late, especially when the bill was around $100. And yes, I still left a tip. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone, not even to anyone staying at the hotel. LA Live is across the street. There are many restaurants there and within walking distance.

I cannot recommend this restaurant. In fact, I would suggest that you do not go here unless you want to listen to the person next you, that you do not know, chewing their food, as that is what happened to me. Meaning, the tables are way too close together !!!In terms of our order, here's one of my main deal breakers at any restaurant, they did not bring our drinks before they presented us with our meal. In fact, we had to ask the server about where our drinks were before he or anyone brought them to our table. That's just not right! How hard is it to present the customer with their drinks before their meal?After that, the server literally never came back to our table. We sat and sat, with empty dishes, waiting for our check to arrive. Still, no server. I had to actually ask the hostess for a bill before it was presented. For a restaurant of this caliber, and a breakfast that cost just under one-hundred dollars, I would have expected better service.

We were leaving Goldburger when we were standing outside peering inside to cafe fig when the manager spotted us and invited us to come inside for a quick tour. Great all around place for breakfast lunch or dinner. Service is really good and I really like the ambiance here. One of the best French press coffee I've ever had. We ended getting a table and ordering a bread pudding French press coffee and steak salad to go.

Came in for a Thursday late lunch with the bestie and were immediately sat down. This café is by the entrance of the hotel itself and I saw a few folks doing remote work while enjoying their coffee here.My friend got the berry waffle while I wanted some more protein and opted for the pastrami sandwich. I thoroughly enjoyed my order although the meat itself was a bit dry and tough at times--but the flavor itself was hitting the spot. As for my friend, she did not think the waffle was anything special and ended up eating more of my dish haha.Service was fantastic and our server consistently came to check up on us and refilled our water several times. We were able to get in and out in under an hour. Overall, solid place to visit if you're in need of a quick lunch.

If I could have ate here everyday I would have. The food and service were amazing and I honestly have no complaints. I visited the location on a previous visit to LA & had a great time. On this visit I realized I was staying at Hotel Figueroa and was very happy that the cafe was right downstairs.I had a chance to try the Pastrami sandwich when I first arrived and before I left I tried the chicken sandwich. Both were great and they give a good portion of the food. The biggest standout for me was the amazing service and the attentiveness of my server + the manager. I would visit here anytime I'm in the downtown area if I'm not staying at the hotel.

We had friends in from out of town staying at the JW Marriott in downtown LA and wanted to meet them someplace close to their hotel for Sunday brunch. Online, we found the Cafe Fig, located on the ground floor of the Hotel Figuero, an easy walk from the JW as well as the Ritz Carlton. We were a party of four. We made reservations for an 11 AM seating, arrived a few minutes early but were seated immediately.We had a choice of three seating areas - one outdoors and two indoors. The few outdoor tables faced the street; the larger of the two indoor areas was pretty standard though with nice spacing between the tables so you could carry on a normal conversation, unlike some eateries in LA where they bunch tables one atop the other. The third seating area consisted of a handful of tables positioned a good distance apart in the open lounge area as you enter the restaurant - with plush, super comfortable chairs and a more intimate atmosphere. We opted for that and it proved to be an excellent choice for a nice, comfortable, quiet location to enjoy our meal and catch up. If one of those tables is available when you arrive or if you are able to choose one upon making your reservation, I would suggest requesting that.Service was fast, friendly and very attentive, including a floor person (not sure of her title) who made the rounds periodically to make certain everything was okay. Between her and our excellent waitress, we felt very well taken care of.Brunch is served daily from 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM. Two of us ordered the Veggie Breakfast described on the menu as "Lily's eggs your style, Bub and Grandma's sourdough, roasted tomatoes, portobello mushroom, avocado, spinach, Meridith Goat feta." ($24), one ordered the Avocado Toast described on the menu as "poached lilys eggs, cotjia cheese, cilantro, watermelon radish, chili, salsa, lime" ($20), and the fourth ordered the Classic Breakfast described on the menu as "Lily's eggs your style, Bub and Grandma's sourdough, Beads & Barnetts bacon, roasted tomatoes, potato ($24). Portions were adequate without being excessive and we each enjoyed what we had ordered. We were very pleased with our choice of Cafe Fig as a place to meet, visit, catch up and enjoy a good meal. If you find yourself in downtown LA looking for something similar, I recommend you check out cafe Fig.

This place is located inside the Figueroa Hotel! It was a bit warm in the cafe, however very beautifully aesthetic! The servers were nice & attentive. Now for the food:Fish tacos 8.5/10: the fish was crispy! I enjoyed the toppings. It came with some salsa that was the perfect kick to the tacos! Surprisingly they were filling with the side of fries. You get a choice of fries or salad! Waffles 8/10: bring the chicken & waffles back! the waffles were cooked nicely & had lots of butter! breakfast Burrito 8/10: really tasty! if you like breakfast burritos this was satisfying! came with some sauces that made the burrito even better! overall this cafe was cute! i will say it was quite hot inside the cafe

I recently visited Café Fig at Hotel Figueroa and found the food to be okay. I had a breakfast burrito that was good but not great. For lunch, I ordered a steak, but the menu was confusing with separate options for breakfast, lunch, and poolside dining.While staying at the hotel, I felt the food choices were pretty limited. They could definitely improve by offering more variety. Overall, Café Fig has potential with a friendly staff and cozy boutique atmosphere , but it needs a more straightforward and diverse menu.

The vibe was amazingly and comfortable.The dog-friendly policy is great for dog lovers like me. My daughter and I had breakfast and the food and service from Emily was amazing.Thank you for the great experience.
