    Fried Chicken Sandwich
    Karina D.

    Solid Brunch Spot with Some Hits and One Miss cute, plant-filled patio vibe drew us in right away. It's got that relaxed PB charm, perfect for a casual weekend brunch. I went for the Crispy Pork Belly and Grits, and wow, the pork belly was absolutely perfect in my book: super juicy, incredibly flavorful, and that ideal fatty crispiness that makes it indulgent without being overwhelming. The grits were a totally new thing for me, and the first few bites were amazing--rich and tasty. But halfway through, the sauce started to feel a bit too heavy and salty for my taste (it was pretty drenched), so I didn't finish it all. I get that it might appeal to folks who love bold, savory flavors, though! My husband got the Crispy Chicken Sandwich, which he really enjoyed--crispy exterior, juicy inside, well-seasoned, and overall flavorful. Solid choice. We added a side of Thick Cut Bacon, and honestly, this was the only real disappointment. It wasn't thick at all, and the flavor came off like a weird experiment with clashing seasonings that just didn't work together. Skip this one. To end on a high note, we shared the Berry Sweet French Toast, and it was delicious--not overly sweet, just the right balance to hit the spot and leave us satisfied. Overall, a good experience with some standout dishes. Service was friendly, and the outdoor seating is lovely.

    Love this place. Eva was our server and super sweet and attentive. Only thing is the bowl that the soup was in was super shallow so it got cold very fast, but the truffle potatoes are so good.

    First time coming in here after a marathon we ran, though they did have a wait time due to the overall people that came in that day, IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT! I ordered the steak Benedict and boy the food was GREAT! The setting, the vibe was there! Only issue is the parking, if by any chance you come in like the day we came in, you'll have a hard time looking for a spot, but other than that, will totally comeback here!

    They say these are "house potatoes" looks more like frozen bag potatoes. Sysco foods much.

    Talked myself into walking by and trying some breakfast. Def a disappointment, trucker cafe style food. Only thing fresh were the eggs, hopefully not the cheapest eggs on the market but probably so. I had the American, it came with the thinnest bread ever, was supposed to be sourdough, they str8 lied, thinking cuz its white its sourdough, nahhhhh it wasnt. I dont like the no chicken sausage option, possible too pricey for them. I expected more but it def gives off that 'no one cares' feel. Cruise by Second Nature for some legit cooking ingredients.

    Great cafe down the block from our AirBnB. Great outdoor vibe, delicious food, varied menu and nice staff. We had the breakfast sandwich with sausage, short rib Benedict, lemon ricotta pancakes and vegan crispy cauliflower with soy chorizo, vegan egg and hollandaise sauce. Breakfast potatoes were awesome.

    My husband and I stopped in for breakfast a couple weeks ago and had a great time. We were sat right away which was super lucky for a Saturday morning. Our server was super nice and helpful. We both really enjoyed our meals and drinks. Love that the entire place is indoor/outdoor. Super cute vibe with all of the plants and unique furniture.

    Had breakfast here with my mom and her dog, which worked out perfectly because the patio is super dog-friendly. We grabbed a table outside--it's such a cute setup. Even though it's totally open-air, the trees and plants make it feel kind of tucked away and cozy. I ordered the chipotle chilaquiles and WOW. So good. The sauce had just the right amount of kick, and the chips stayed crispy--not that sad, soggy mess you sometimes get. My mom got the Benedict and liked it too, but I definitely won that round. Also had a honey lavender latte and now I'm obsessed--wish I had one right now honestly.

    Fig tree is a cute little restaurant. The food was okay, the potato's were dry and the eggs Benedict were good but nothing extraordinary. Our server was pretty bad, she kept forgetting about refilling our drinks and quite frankly, she wasn't very nice. The atmosphere It's really cute!

    Veggie Omelet with gluten free toast
    Delilah W.

    Cute and delicious brunch spot! Perfect to sit outside in the sun. My friend got the breakfast sandwich - the brioche bun was amazing. I got the veggie omelette, the goat cheese was a great addition. The gluten free toast was not my favorite, a bit too thin and crispy. The chai latte is a must! Service was quick and friendly. We'll be back!

    Awesome service from both Jaime and Maggie. Very sweet and inviting. First time at Fig tree cafe for me. Came with my sister and cousin.

    The main entrance is gorgeous. The giant fig tree is enormous. Our server, Mark, was on top of everything. We ordered the french toast/pancake sampler with lemon ricotta pancakes, lemon strawberry french toast, and berry sweet french toast. It was delicious, especially the lemon strawberry french toast. My husband loved the crispy pork belly & grits. Thank you Mark for the recommendation. We tried a traditional breakfast, as well as the short rib sandwich. Our food runner, Axel, was super nice as well. The manager, Eva, and hostess, Maggie were also very friendly. The restrooms were clean also. We will definitely come back on our next visit.

    Short Rib Sandwich
    Jordyn J.

    Wowwww. This was amazing. Every single item ordered was delicious. 100% would come back for the breakfast trio and try some more of these sweet pancakes and French toasts. Worth the sugar rush! Staff were friendly and service was quick. Vibe here is fantastic. Highly recommend.

    Cute weekend brunch spot. Lots of outdoor seating and dog friendly. Staff has been top notch every time I've been here. The breakfast sushi, burrito and Benedict's are all solid choices. Tried the French toast sampler for the first time and the fig jam ricotta was perfection! Until next time!

In a time when its hard to afford a small business anywhere, they not only run a local corner market with everything, (including toilet paper)... but do it with competitive prices. Their wine & beer selection is excellent. The deli is fantastic! Personally, I think the real Magic there is the people who own and run it. They are friendly to everyone and quickly develop a report with their return customers. I can't tell you how many times I have gone over and asked for something ridiculous, and magically it appears. I will miss this place profusely and I truly wish there was a Magic Market on every corner, but I doubt it could ever be reproduced. :) P.S. Mike S. is either a liar or an a**hole because if he's shopped there as many times as he claims he'd know that they would go out of their way to be as helpful as possible in every way to anybody... with the possible exception of huge jerks.

Quite honestly, this may be one of the best roast beef sandwiches I've ever had. The bun is exceptional--flavorful, soft, and structurally perfect for the sandwich it holds. The roast beef is sliced paper-thin, cooked beautifully, and layered with an ideal balance of lean meat and richness. Every component feels deliberate. What truly sets it apart is the flavor pairing. The zesty house sauce brings a bright, tangy punch that plays perfectly against the mellow bite of the horseradish. Nothing overpowers; everything complements. It is a sandwich built with restraint and confidence. Beyond the food, Big Jim's has the kind of charm that makes you want to stay awhile. The service is friendly, the experience is quick and easy, and parking nearby makes stopping in refreshingly convenient. In fact, I had to go back two days later because I couldn't stop thinking about it. Big Jim's earns 5 stars without hesitation. There is real passion behind this product, and it shows in every detail. From the first bite to the last, the bun-to-meat ratio is spot on--satisfying, easy to eat, and expertly composed. This is roast beef done right.

Tonight I came home and had no food so I thought, let's give it a try, when I looked up their menu I discovered that they do more than just sandwiches! Wraps, salads, paninis and even breakfast! Because I'm not a big sandwich person, I opted for a wrap. The Southwest Chicken wrap. You get the option of what kind of wrap so I chose the sun-dried tomato. Because I knew I wouldn't eat it all in one sitting I asked for the ranch dressing on the side when I called it it. The lady who answered said, no problem, we'll have that ready in 6 minutes! Amazing! I was starving so this was great news. When I walked in she had it ready for me and then all I had to do was pay at the register. Now for the taste, wow. At first I thought this was going to be a cold wrap with like cubed chicken. I was pleasantly surprised when I felt a warm bag. When I open the wrap it had little grill marks on it, they press it in the panini and warm it up! It made it 10x better and the chicken was warm too and sliced. Avocado, lettuce, cheese etc. yum! I can't wait to eat the other half tomorrow. Oh, and they give you a nice size pickle spear to go with it. I will definitely be back!

Based on other comments and the AI summaries I saw on Yelp and Google, it was recommended that I order ahead which is exactly what I did and it was a fairly easy and a quick system. It looks like their weekly menu keeps changing which is a both a good thing and a bad thing because you get to try new things but may not always get to eat your favorites again. I pre-ordered on a Thursday for a pick up on Friday and they were already out of their seasonal Black Forest Bun which sounded delicious. After scrolling through the menu multiple times, I decided to get the Pistachio Strawberry croissant and the Kouign Amann. When I arrived at the store, I immediately noticed the pre-order pick up window and was so glad that I wasn't standing in what seems to be on atleast a 25-30 line which I though was crazy for a weekday morning. The staff that gave my order was so friendly and it was so quick. What's great is they hold your order for atleast 24 hours in case you're unable to pick it up. There is some seating in the patio but honestly it's not meant for sitting and enjoying the pastries because there aren't really any tables but only seating. So it's best to pick up and take it home or eat by the beach which is what I did. The place is cute with a lot of plants and good vibes though. Since they don't warm up the croissants , I was worried that it wouldn't taste good while eating it at the beach but I was absolutely wrong. The Kouign Amann was okay, I'd give it a 4/5. The Pistachio Strawberry croissant however, was so absolutely delicious I'd give it a 5/5 even though it wasn't warmed up, it had the perfect amount of sweetness. It's easily one of the best croissants I've ever had. Overall this place has absolutely delicious pastries, but I'm not sure if I'd stand in a 30 mins line, maybe 10-15 mins, so good for them to have the pre order system.

Turns out it was just as whimsical and quaint as the name of the bakery would make it seem, from the pet freindly atmosphere to the passion fruits hanging from the overhead trestle! As a tip, order ahead for pickup! Wayfarer opens its doors at 8 am, with online pickups avaliable as early as 9 - 9:15am. We walked right up, passed the already growing line, and enjoyed our breakfast. Truly the only way to skip waiting in line; going early won't cut it! We got three different croissants, as well as a baguette. Can't go wrong with the original, but the standout (to me) was the almond, with a crunchy top and stuffed with almond filling (think marzipan!). Perfectly balanced, and the almond, nor the sweetness, was not too overpowering. The Kouign-Amann had a crunchy, sugary shell. Almost like a creme brulee topping on a croissant. Sticky, but so delicious. Also shoutout to the baguette! One of the best I've had. Next time I'll have to bring some fruit, cheese, and honey. Wayfarer's vibes transported me to a community garden in Santa Cruz, and the tastes and techniques to Europe. Good thing it's inconvenient to get here from UC San Diego or else I'd be here much more often.
