The Braided Fig

Lovely atmosphere, attentive staff, tasty food (small plates)we chose 4 which was fine between 2

Warm welcome, service and food great and a nice cosy atmosphere.

Limited menu, not what was on the menu on the internet . Food was cold. Presentation a lot to be desired. Will never go back or recommend to anyone

Never a bad word to say about The Braided Fig. Always amazing!

Great food, excellent staff and service, and very easy to book a table.

Excellent food and attentive service in nice surroundings and at a reasonable price

Staff very inexperienced. Menu misleading and recommended portions far too large. Monkfish main overcooked (inedible) Espresso arrived cold after 20 min wait. Would hesitate before revisiting, overall very disappointed.

Excellent food and quality . Great choices and also great service and restaurant.

Excellent food & service. Would highly recommend for lunch with friends.

Big change since we last visited in Jan 2025, not what it use to be like.

Very good service. Food was good, especially the mac n cheese side dish. However I feel the menu was a bit disjointed - some plates a bit big for ‘small plates’. Prefer old menu

I had the tandoori fish and it was AMAZING! The menu is original and different to anywhere else I have eaten in Aberdeen. Every time I eat here it is different and delicious. Great cocktails too! 👍🏼

We visited on Saturday 27 September at 18:30 From the moment we arrived there was a problem with the service, the server couldn’t find their tablet to find our booking. We were shown to our table and told someone would come to take our drinks order, eventually the same person came and took our drinks order, our wine came but the water we ordered did not arrive until we had asked three times. Our starter was only just warm, we had to wait a long time for our main course and based on the very long wait the next table had for their Decaff coffee we decided to quit while we were ahead and asked for the bill. The bill arrived but asking for a copy after we had paid caused some consternation. We did get a copy but not for the actual amount we paid as we did not pay the full service charge. Altogether very unprofessional.

The menu has changed from what was online However the food was great.

Food was amazing. Excellent combination of flavors and textures and staff was great.

Excellent food choices. Especially for someone with intolerances and allergies. Highly recommend

Excellent food and service. Good wines too. Will be back soon.

Excellent food and service. Good wines too. Will be back soon.

Service was very slow - four tables in use, but didn't get food until an hour after we arrived. Steak was tough, but food was otherwise good.

Excellent food and service. We were there on a very quiet night. My first time at this restaurant but will definitely return

Lovely restaurant with lovely food! I had the Korean cauliflower for starters and the feta mac for mains and it was delicious! Service was lovely too!

Great food, lovely staff. Would recommend for a nice lunch

We were the only people in the restaurant so it was very quiet. Food was beautifully presented and we all enjoyed our meal. Unfortunately the bottle the water was served in had the remnants of labels still on the glass which wasn’t a good look. Surely they had other empty bottles they could have used.

Food is fantastic, highly recommend and reasonable priced, only the 2 of us in the restaurant, but for a Tuesday lunchtime I wasn’t expecting it to be busy👍

A hidden gem, good varied menus and helpful staff. Definitely recommend it

Friendly service and good food, thoroughly enjoyed by all. On the downside, not all items on the menu were available. We've been visitors to Braided Fig on and off for the last 15 years, nothing has changed inside and things are starting to look tired and in need of an upgrade.

Lovely food, nice atmosphere, friendly staff. I would definitely recommend!

Very tasty food, generous portion size and served promptly with a smile. What more can you ask for.

A lovely restaurant and friendly staff. The food was amazing!

Pre-theatre meal and the service was very good - attentive and timely to meet our one hour quick turn around requirement. The food was great, however the pork dish could have had more pork ! The Braided Fig is a nice restaurant, with good food, a good selection of refreshments and great staff.

This was the best carvery we've had in a while. The restaurant had a good atmosphere and very friendly staff.

Absolutely fantastic Sunday lunch! 10/10 food and service. It was great!

Excellent choice of food. The Hake, and Steak Diane were amazing. Service was excellent

Excellent food and service. Staff were friendly and would thoroughly recommend.

Very good, nice staff and lovely food, will be back at some point.

Great wee place - deserves to be much busier. Really lovely meal, thoroughly enjoyable. Will be back!

Lovely food, great value and excellent service. Definitely be back.

Visited before. This time was to try the new menu. The food was stunning. A party of 4, so 4 starters and 4 main courses. Not one bad thing to say about anything that we tried. Only bad point was we were all to full up to be able to have a pudding. The staff are always lovely and very attentive. The bar is well stocked This fine dining restaurant is an absolute must to try. WE WILL BE GOING BACK

A quick bite to eat before seeing Capercaille. Great place.

Abbiamo trovato questo ristorante piccolo ma accogliete. La carta del menù è variata e i piatti da noi scelti erano molto buoni.

Supernetter Service, leckeres Essen, schöne Location. Kann man nur empfehlen.

The food and service were both excellent! It’s fast becoming our go to place for our catch-ups!

First class food and service. Highly recommend this wee gem in the town centre!

Nice atmosphere, varied menu, delicious freshly cooked food served by lovely staff.

The food & service was excellent & couldn't be faulted. A lovely menu, with plenty of interesting things & choices for everyone. The only downside to me was the stale smell as we entered the building. If this was improved, the whole experience for me would have been excellent.

Food was delicious and attractively presented. Service although friendly was a bit slow and we weren’t offered a pudding. It was for a birthday and I’d brought cupcakes, only one of them was bought out for the birthday girl then had to go and request the other ones for the rest of our group as they were never appearing which I thought odd.

Food was lovely and relaxing atmosphere. Would go back again.

Waitress very attentive & explained the menu well . Food was really good

Excellent dining experience experience. Good food, lovely ambience and great service. Being dairy free was not an issue. Definitely recommend.

Super menu and well presented and tasty food. All of our party enjoyed what they chose. The staff were really great, flexible and friendly and the right amount of attentive.

A lovely day and great ambiance and amazing food cheers
