This one snuck up on me! Blue Fig Garden soft opened today at the Cherry Hill Mall where Midici Stone Fired Pizza and Bobby’s Burger Palace used to be, between Bahama Breeze and Fatburger.
Blue Fig Garden is from the same owners as the Blue Fig Cafe, a 100% halal Mediterranean restaurant in Moorestown. Correction: I have been informed this is not a 2nd location of the Blue Fig Cafe in Moorestown. It is a different restaurant managed by others not related to the one in Moorestown. There is a business connection, but the cuisines are different, so it would be inaccurate to call it a 2nd location. I hope that makes sense!
The layout of the previous restaurant is the same, with a noticeable decor refresh of bright colors (blues and greens) and a Mediterranean-influenced ambiance. Held over from Midici, they will put the wood-fired pizza oven to good use to roast meats, vegetables, and flatbreads.
This location will also offer Turkish coffee and a fresh juice bar.
Blue Fig Garden will be open daily from 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
More info/details as I get them and as soon as I can visit.
