This place is one of the more lively restaurants in town. Beer lovers will be in heaven although they also serve wonderful wines and there's a full bar. Food tends toward pub-style. There is a large outdoor seating area, music some evenings and a firepit for after sunset.

The sister restaurant to The Girl and the Fig is located in Glen Ellen (6 min from our Airbnb). Same quality food in a bit more casual atmosphere. They don't take reservations, so go early or be prepared for a bit of a wait. One of the great local secrets is that there is no charge for corkage here!!
