The heart of Washington, DC is home to a sliver of the French Riviera in FIG & OLIVE DC | CityCenter. Here, guests can escape from the commotion of Downtown DC to indulge in a glass of rosé on our al fresco terrace or enjoy an elegant evening with dinner upstairs in our Orchard Rooms. The bar & lounge are buzzy with our happy hours while the Wine Room is an accessible area perfect for an effortless get together before an event at the nearby Capital One Arena. During the day, F&O DC is a lunch and brunch favorite of CCDC locals and museum visitors alike.

    It was ok. Service wasn’t great. Food was marginal and music, too loud to carry a business conversation. I wouldn’t recommend

    Enjoyed a business lunch meeting on a weekday here. Initially, our table was not ready despite having a reservation so we were seated at the bar. Not a big deal, we then were moved to our table for two which was very comfortable. Service was great, food was prepared fresh and fast. I enjoyed the salad with salmon while my colleague had a chicken sandwich and fries. Interior is well designed and chic, high ceilings, although we found we could hear conversations next to us. One of many dining options nearby and certainly worth at least one visit.

    Chose to eat here because of the nice outdoor space, but upon arriving, we were told F&O stopped seating outside after 9 (it was 9:08). Ten minutes after we were seated inside, another couple was seated outside. Our waiter was a bit awkward and spilled water all over our table (not a big deal, but he didn’t apologize, and he then tried wiping it up with a non-absorbent napkin that just pushed it around further). A coffee we didn’t order was on our final bill. Overall, the food was quite good, the drinks were okay, and the experience was not the best. We will likely try again another time in case this was a fluke.

    Downstairs is cute, upstairs needs work. Food is good but still overpriced for atmosphere.

    Fantastic service. Definitely one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. The crostinis were chef’s kiss, their fig & olive salads are a MUST when you visit this restaurant. 100% recommend when you visit D.C.

    We sampled a number of crostini and appetizers - all were delicious and well-presented! Jose was a fantastic server who was very accommodating and allowed us to linger and enjoy our evening. While it is expensive, it was worth it and a place I'd go back to.
