Fig & Olive

My wife and I initially came here because of a Groupon and got price fixed meal. We didn't think anything of it, but fast forward 1-2 years later and we stopped in for date night. We were very impressed with the food. The seasoning could have been a little bolder but that's more of a personal preference. The presentation and textures were amazing. To be fair, we were very hungry on arrival which probably helped us appreciate the food much more. The ambiance was elegant but not formal and the staff were all very friendly and courteous. Since I have some free time at the moment, I can probably go into a more detailed description of our experience here, particularly with the food. The cocktails were surprisingly very good. Most places have generic tasting cocktails that are usually overloaded with ice, diluting much of the taste. I had the Apple cider and my wife has a cocktail with a jalapeno (can't remember the name). We both did like our cocktails, but tasted each other's and ended up swapping drinks because we enjoyed the others that much more. There was a satisfying amount of alcohol in the drink as well, even after stirring it thoroughly to ensure the alcohol was evenly distributed. We started with the bread which was accompanied by 3 different flavored oils which we enjoyed sampling while comparing the uniqueness of each one. For appetizers, we were unsure of what we wanted we wanted because there were a few items which caught our eye (and watered or mouths). We finally agreed on the chefs choice which we split evenly between usThe flavor from the meats were great and you could taste how fresh they were. They were also cooked perfectly. My wife usually doesn't like lamb, but enjoyed 2 of my 4 lamb chops. I split her pork loin which I enjoyed myself, more than I thought I would and perhaps more than the juicy lamb chops I'd just devoured. My wife had mango chutney complimenting her pork which drew out more flavor from the meat, causing my mouth to water that much more. The vegetables on my plate were meh, but I'm not much of a veggie kinda guy. If there was seasoning, it was overpowered by the somewhat charred skin on my purple carrots. We also decided on an order of truffle fries but we both felt they were too greasy. Following dinner, I went with the flight of sweets, which offered a sample of 4 different samplings of their desserts. The pralines were my favorite, crispy and sweets with a smooth caramel undertone. The cream surprised me as I thought I may enjoy that the least, but the contrasting sweet vanilla with the mildly butter chocolate taste was delightful as it dissolved in my mouth. I half expected the chocolate ganache to be thick and heavy, and although it didn't stand out over any other ganache I've had in the past, the lighter consistency and textures were very welcoming. I found the fruit sorbet to be too bitter for my palate but my wife enjoyed it very much. She also ordered the Apple struddle (?) with ice cream. Although it was tasty like the ganache, it did not stand out. Needless to say, my wife and I will revisit Fig and Olive in the future.

The food and service here are both impeccable. I ordered the spaghetti del mar and everything was so well cooked and throughly seasoned. The waitstaff did not allow anyones glass to be empty. Any spills were cleaned immediately. I even dropped some ice on the table and a waiter came and took it from me. I will definitely be back

Charming, good food, moderate prices. The waitress was very nice. On Thursday there is live music, just a tad loud so we were seated in the back of the room. This is a wonderful spot for a romantic dinner. The only down sides were that the wine portions are small and the busybody tried to clear my plate when I had stopped eating for a moment and my wife was still eating. This is more of an adult scene than a family scene.

Its always a pleasure going here. I truly enjoy their Moscato white wine. It has a very unique taste. Although the food is a bit pricey, but I enjoy it because its well cooked and delicious. It has just the right amount of seasonings. The atmosphere is lovely as well. I love the smell of fresh herbs around the restaurant. I do recommend it to others. I'll be back there again very soon.

I took my dad here to celebrate his birthday. It was nice, the service was great, our server Melanie was very attentive. The restaurant has a nice vibe and elegant decor. The wicker chairs were comfortable. My dad opted for the lamb chops while I went with the lemon chicken. Surprise, your entree doesn’t include a side. I’m glad we asked lol and I’m glad I budgeted for the night. I enjoyed a glass of Pink Ribbon in support of Breast Cancer Awareness month. My dad enjoyed his lamb chops, even though they weren’t cooked as thorough as he asked. His side of mash was a nice compliment. I enjoyed my chicken very much and the purple potato purée was a surprise. I’m a spinach lover and my side didn’t disappoint me. They were sautéed with olives, garlic and almonds. For dessert my dad had the apple tart. It was meh. Overall we had a experience and we enjoyed the food but I don’t see myself eating here again.
