5pm starts seating upstairs. They have a few appetizers and small plates and entrees. They are all pretty small so good for one person or get multiple to share. We had a light bite. Beet humus and the lamb & couscous with the fig and olive drink. All was amazing flavors and the right amount of spices.

Great fresh food at this location. Went for birthday Lunch for my daughter and she really enjoyed herself. We had the most amazing waiter in the world. He was so engaging and made us all feel like we alone at the restaurant and he was just giving us too notch service. Kudos! We tried a wide variety of appetizers and entrees and every single one was delicious. The dips are all amazing they are a must try. Definitely recommend if your in the area. I will definitely be coming back to try the dinner menu. Cheers!

Dining at Fig & Olive was such a pleasant experience from start to finish. Every single item on the menu is crafted to perfection with the highest quality ingredients, intricately added to each dish. Everything is there for a reason and tastes absolutely amazing. Even the salad was one of the best salads we ever had. Keep in mind that the food takes some time to prepare, but I guess that’s how you know that everything is being made fresh! Do not miss Fig & Olive!

Had lunch at Fig & Olive for the first time today and was very impressed, I see why this place is packed all of the time as the food is delicious! Had the tuna sandwich in particular, and it was out of this world. The service at the bar was fantastic, too. We'll definitely be returning to Fig & Olive in the near future. Highly recommended!

The restaurant has fantastic food, but what truly made my experience special was the service from the waiter, Daniel. His exceptional treatment, quality attention, and charisma truly stood out. I will definitely return to be served by him again. A true professional! Best wishes for all the team .

Food was delicious! Had their signature Fig and Olive salad to start. Good choice! I had the Brick Free Range Chicken and my husband had their Atlantic Salmon - both were delicious and generous portions! The baked bread with fresh Greek olive oil was delicious too! I also had a somewhat, not too dry Cabernet Sauvignon wine with dinner. To finish we had the Cheesecake and it was fresh, creamy and not too sweet - perfect. It was covered with fresh blueberries and Strawberries. The service was exemplary, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was relaxing and very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and time there.

Everyone here is so amazing and the food is by far the best I have had in a while. Their their specialty drinks were assembled with the best quality of juices, extracts and bitters, i was in awe of how smooth and balanced each and every cocktail I tried was. The starter dishes were delicious beyond words and I savored every bite. To sum up my visit, it was a very calm and relaxing atmosphere with every member of staff was happy, smiling and professional. It was a joy to visit this establishment. I am saddened to hear they are closing their doors but I truly hope they can open another location, which doesnt need to be a continunace of this business. Just as long as they put the same attention, enegry and passion into the new place.
