This was my 3rd visit to The Braided Fig and we were there to celebrate a birthday. It was my decision to book in advance as i knew how popular The Braided Fig is as the quality of food and service is always high, we were suprised to find although were were dining midweek that the restaurant was almost empty, this made for a more relaxing experience and this was evident in the interactions with the staff which were friendly and casual. i was joined by my wife and my parents, who havent been to the braided fig before, but after the meal said it was amazing and that a second visit is a must.

Really enjoyable meal, the pork tenderloin was excellent, the combination of flavours and textures was amazing. The apple crumble is like having Christmas on your taste buds. Wish we had more time to savour other dishes, next time we will plan to stay longer.

Service was slow. Waited 15 mins before deciding to go to the bar myself to get drinks. Half an hour before food order taken. Food was timely and delicious though. We asked to take my partners leftovers home as it was a large portion; this was refused. Seemed odd.

Lovely food and a relaxed dining experience. Menu was varied with a good range of dishes to suit all tastes and occasions. Not overly pricy either which was a welcome change from the norm these days. Service was attentive and friendly too. Lovely night out. Will definitely return.

The table was too small for two people and the food was served on chopping boards, not plates! Very difficult to eat, but the fish was fresh and tasty.

I was disappointed that they refused to serve a half portion of the Sunday roast for me. No movement on menu at all so I ended up having to order off the kids menu to ensure no food waste. If a child wanted a Sunday roast then they have no option?! The place was dead so this made it even more disappointing. My child was still eating his food when we were asked if everyone was finished and could they clean up the table. We were told on arrival we would need to wait to place or order so the kitchen wasn’t overloaded…..there were 4 tables including us! It’s normally a lovely experience here but this visit definitely left a sour taste so not sure we will rush back which is a shame as we normally have a great meal / time.

Nice welcome. We were 20 minutes early but we're shown straight to our table in the window. Starters were great, one main was excellent the other (Cod) was didappointing. Good range of beers and wine. Very friendly and attentive service. Would go again.

Lunch during aberdeenbrestaurant week was enjoyable. Restaurant temperature itself was bit cool though. Fig and ginger pudding was very nice -generous portion with lots of butterscotch sauce.

First visit. Friendly and welcoming staff, lovely decor / setting and amazing well cooked / well presented food. Large portions too, which was great! Couldn’t fault any of the food. Spot on! 👍🏻 I’d have much preferred to have decided what tip to pay myself though, rather than it being added on automatically, so that was a little off putting but other than that… faultless! 😃 We will most definitely be back! 👌🏻 Thanks
