 The Fig Tree was the former
home of the Henshaw family and the last of the private dwellings
in La Villita.
The home was purchased by the Phelps Family in December of 1970
for their private residence. However, much to their surprise,
the old home was cherished by almost everyone who entered it.
Prompted by this, the family, in April of 1971, voted to share
it with all, and thus the Fig Tree Restaurant was born.

Mr. and
Mrs. Frank Phelps opened the Fig Tree Restaurant on March 17,
1971. 
We sincerely
hope you will relax and enjoy the old home and it's surrounding
as much as those who have lived here or dined here in the past.
