[[HIGHLIGHT]]We went during their happy hour time and really enjoyed patio seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered their 3 dips (Roasted Beet Hummus, Baba Ghanoush, and Labneh), all of which turned out very well! They were incredibly rich in flavor but not too overly bold. The Seafood Paella could have used a bit more butter for a slighly more creamier texture, but the core flavors are solid and does impart onto the rice. Whats missing was the charred rice at the base of the pan that I look forward to in a traditional Paella dish. But still a great to do all. Our server was well intentioned and prompt with our orders. Food came out rather quickly and the outdoors patio area was a delight. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Spacious with a refreshing view of the suburban street.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Came in on a Sunday at noon with reservation. Place was fairly empty, maybe 3 other groups and seated immediately. Parking: Galleria parking, pretty empty when we got there...good luck. Food 5/5: we got the 6 crostini and the salmon burger with the Parmesan fries + truffle oil. Everything tasted fantastic. Favorite was actually the fries. Highly recommend. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance 4.5/5: beautiful ambiance, gorgeous venue and for whatever reason empty so wasn't loud. Very upscale[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service 5/5: friendly, professional, helpful, solid service. Value 3/5: some comments that the place is over priced, I tend to agree a bit but quality is high and you pay a premium for the ambiance Overall 4.5/5: overall a great experience at a pretty good value. I generally dislike going to galleria because of the insane crowds but ill probably be back on a future Sunday morning read more

I've always wanted to try this place so we came here for brunch on a Sunday remind you it was around 3 PM and there weren't many people around. Walked right in. They still have the brunch menu up so we ordered Cacio e Pepe scrambled eggs on a brioche toast and a grilled chicken sandwich . Their brunch menu was a little limited, but the mix of cacio e pepe with eggs really hit the spot. I wish it had more cacio but other than that, everything else was okay. Fries were amazing!

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Fig & Olive is a stylish dining experience with Mediterranean flavors.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We came here for our networking event for the Texas Young Professionals. We were able to sample quite a few things. The menu includes a range of dishes that highlight olives and fresh ingredients. Each dish, from appetizers to entrées, shows attention to quality, and you can taste the difference. The variety of olive oils enhances the flavors of the food. I was quite happy while eating and even had a refreshing drink which I cannot for the life of me remember the name! But, let me tell you... It was so good I wanted five of them. (It was a virgin drink... Calm down.) [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is modern and inviting, making it suitable for both quiet meals and lively gatherings.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I see why the Texas Young Professionals shows this location. The attentive service ensured a smooth dining experience from beginning to end. Overall, Fig & Olive is a pretty memorable place and I hope to visit again soon... Maybe next time for lunch! read more

We had a girls day at the mall and wanted to stop for a nice brunch. I've gone to the Fig and Olive in D.C. so decided this would be a good option for us especially since I've never had their brunch menu. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is very clean, cute and the ambiance gave us the vibe we wanted.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waitress was very nice and gave us some great recs. We started with the crostinis which were really good. We did two of the manchego ones and one with the burrata. I chose the steak and eggs for my meal which was cooked well and very flavorful. Overall, Fig & Olive just doesn't miss. This is a great option for a girls day out at the mall! read more

Fig and olive was absolutely great. Met up for a pre Christmas dinner with my friend and enjoyed every single bit of food we ate! Service felt like we were the only ones there and being catered to uniquely. Our server had the absolutely best suggestions.

I can no longer eat beef but the lamb sirloin dish truly replaced my want for steak!! The mussels and fries were good, and their cocktails perfectly strong.

I was taken aback by the cold caramelized onions on the Crostini...and not in a pleasant way. The flavor profile just didn't do it for me. There was a bitterness that I couldn't quite put my finger on. Likewise, the prosciutto option left something to be desired. The Burrata, however, was quite nice. I would love to report that our experience improved as the brunch wore on, but alas... The prefixed Mother's Day menu stipulated that everyone at the table had to order from the menu, and even though several of the items are regularly served, they were off limits even to mothers who didn't wish to order a copious amount of food. I guess the idea of making sure your guests are happy no longer really plays a part in "service". Since we couldn't order what we wanted, we opted for the Benedict and the F&M burger. My mom felt the spinach interfered with her perfectly poached egg and crabcake. She longing stared off into the distance thinking about the far superior crabcake out at Brookwood. The burger looks amazing but just couldn't compete with other burgers around town. I can't say that the food would entice us to return. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nor would the incessant blinking light above our table. The ambiance would have otherwise been enjoyable had it not been for the light.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Since I was staying in the Houston Galleria area, we decided to look for a place that was walking distance from the hotel. A little searching brought us to Fig and Olive Tasting Kitchen and Bar. The restaurant has a pleasant ambiance, perfect lighting and well appointed decor. We had arrived without a reservation, but still were able to get a nice table outside. All the food choices were enticing. The best bet was the Dinner Prix Fixe Menu, which was reasonably priced at $48 per person for a 3-course meal. Since our party was comprised of seven people, we were able to taste all the selections on the menu. Appetizers were: Baby Arugula Salad, Tuna Meatballs and Wild Mushroom Croquettes. Entrees were: Moroccan-Spiced Salmon, Paccheri, Roasted Brick Chicken and Peppercorn-Crusted Strip Steak. Dessert choices were: Flourless Chocolate Espelette Cake and Lemon and Olive Oil Cake. All the dishes were superbly prepared and exuded with texture, flavor and taste, Service was exceptional. read more

The perfect place for a weekend brunch or romantic dinner. The ambience and service were excellent. It's connected to the Galleria mall. There's parking in the garage or valet in front of the restaurant. The French food was delish. We had a great time throughout the night. They also have outdoor seats which would be perfect with good weather. I love the vibes here. It's very mellow but also very romantic. Would highly recommend if you're in the area. read more

I hesitate to give 5 stars for anyone, because nobody is perfect. However this was a solid 4.8 experience. The ambiance is modern classy upscale. The staff was friendly, informative, and so attentive, my glass was always full, food was hot and quickly served, and used plates were whisked away immediately. We did the brunch menu. Steak and eggs were fantastic, with gorgeous presentation, and the Chimichurri sauce was maybe the best I have had. My drink was their version of an old fashioned, with fresh rosemary as an unexpected twist. We finished up with lemon pound cake and cappuccino. Overall a great experience, and I would definitely recommend to friends and family. read more

Fig & Olive was an incredible dining experience that I was not expecting to find inside the Galleria mall. The service is top-notch; the team that took care of us were always present refilling water glasses, clearing plates, and getting additional cocktails. The menu is also stellar with great items made in special ways. For their autumn menu, I had the Smoke & Spice cocktail and could have that for the rest of my life. The combination of smoke and spice was perfection and was easily a standout of the day. However, the burrata appetizer with apples and beets was also stunning. You can tell the team takes pride in their preparation and ensuring quality ingredients. Lastly, my salmon main course was also lovely. The huge piece of fish was cooked very well, had tons of flavor and made me excited for the overall meal. Sadly, we were too full to try dessert, but next time I will make that happen. read more

Fig & Olive - Smoke & Spice - French Near Me - Houston, Texas

Oh I love a good first impression and Fig & Olive did not disappoint. Following the surprise that the restaurant is attached to the Galleria, we were offered complimentary champagne, and amazing service upon entry while waiting for our table. As a party of 8, we were seated in semiprivate room facing the Galleria (not ideal but you can tell they're making an effort to conceal this) with a virtual fireplace gyrating on the television. Our waitress was attentive and kind. The bathrooms were clean, and luxurious. But as we waited for the remainder of our party, the illusion began to fade. First, somehow, somewhere in the restaurant was a constant beeping. This was not a "I didn't change the smoke alarm" beeping, or "food is ready in the kitchen" beeping but some unidentified, every 10 minutes or so , immediately takes you out of the fantasy of a luxury dining experience beeping. Secondly, the restaurant was near empty during brunch hours...odd for sure, but no sweat, maybe it's a hidden gem. Third, the offerings. We ordered the mimosa carafe with pomegranate, orange pineapple juice and apple cider. The idea is fantastic. We were not recommended two orders. For eight folks it included one very VERY "affordable" bottle of champagne. My cucumber cocktail was premixed (not ideal), but strong (ideal). Although it's understandable that the brunch menu is designed to honor the South of France, the portions per the price were surprising, in the worst way, even for the gaunt eaters of the group. *the Mediterranean dips sharing appetizer (on the for the table menu) is likely designed to be shared between 2. No more than 3. It would be appreciated if this could be communicated to parties when they inquire about shareable appetizers. My assumption that a menu titled "For the table" would comfortable feed more than two, but I suppose I should have asked. *the Yellow fish Tuna Carpaccio ($24)- whoop whoop, an appetizer that can be shared between more than 2 folks. Under salted, but otherwise delicious, flavorful, and texturally. *Lemon ricotta pancakes- arrived too thick and overworked. 4 members of the party ordered the dish. 2/4 thought their entree was undercooked, turns out they were stuffed with lemon ricotta. Additionally, if you plan to order, know that this is not a sweet entree, and likely not designed to fill. We did not find out until our dishes arrived, and we inquired about the size and seemingly raw center. While I love the tapaesque concept, we just wish the portion sizes and important notes of each dish ("would you like to order another, you mentioned this us for sharing, it's designed to feed x people" or "that dish is popular, it's a small portion, most people order it with or "just so you know this pancake is filled, it may look raw in the center, but I'm actually it's cooked to temp and what you see is the filling", we're communicated as it's not evident from the menu or the pricing. As a cherry on top, two waiters who were not assigned to our section used our section as an escape room to text while avoiding the eyes of management...they literally behaved as if we were not sitting there dining. This is the first time in a long time, I've felt in more ways than one like an invisible diner. Unfortunately at this pricepoint, the bulk of our experience was underwhelming, but I wish them the best, and hope this was a one off. Everyone is entitled to an off day now and again. read more

I was hesitant to try this place because I am normally not a fan of Mediterranean cuisine, but I was very impressed today. Our server (I believe her name was Cynthia) was really kind, helpful and attentive. I enjoyed the riviera shrimp and salmon salad. It was flavorful and the portion size was perfect. The mushroom croquettes were not my taste, but the black truffle sauce that comes with it was very flavorful. Overall, my friend and I had a great lunch and I will be returning for brunch or dinner soon. read more

My two coworkers and I visited Fig & Olive for a quick catch up - one of my coworkers had a very tight timeline and could only be there for 30 mins. When she arrived, she had a tough time finding parking and the general manager, Max, came over and asked if I was ok. I explained the situation and he said, "tell your friend to ask for Max, and she can park in valet." We were shocked! When my coworker arrived, she was greeted with a hug and excellent service. He checked on us a few more times throughout the visit and send over complimentary champagne! The whole experience was beautiful - also the food was DELICIOUS. I had the Houston Restaurant Week menu and wine, as well as the complimentary champagne. 10/10 would recommend this place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance also was perfect - we sat on the outdoor patio on a rare "good weather day" in Houston - the shade was perfect and there was a nice wind.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The ONLY "difficulty" in eating here is the parking but 2 out of 3 of our party were able to find free parking on the front lot that wasn't valet. There is also the free yellow garage for the galleria as an option, and valet. Can't wait to come back! :-) read more

Went to Fig & Olive for dinner, and overall my impression was good. I think my four star-rating comes down to the price and the fact that the atmosphere is just fine. Food: I actually really appreciated and liked the dishes we ordered, many of which had some 'twist' incorporated in the dish, which impressed me. The cocktails (the Lavendar Fields was better than the Sirocco), however, were just fine. And ultimately, the price point is just too high to justify coming back. We ordered: - 3 Crostinis (Burrata, Onion Confit, Prosciutto), I personally liked the Confit the best - Tuna Meatballs (which were very good) - Roasted Broccoli (with Bagna Cauda, Breadcrumbs) (which I also enjoyed) - Amalfi Seafood Rissotto (entree, and while it was fine, I did not love the seafood quality, it was a bit tough... I think the appetizers were better) Service & Ambiance: The service was a bit weird since we were delivered the wrong order twice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, the location decor is nice, but the space was way too large for the number of people who were there on a Friday evening.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Fig & Olive is an upscale restaurant & bar in the Galleria Mall serving seasonal Mediterranean meals prepared with flavored olive oils. We have gone a few times to grab a quick bite when shopping at the mall. It's usually not busy, and we're able to grab a table right away. [COCKTAILS] +Riviera Old Fashioned (Sagamore Rye, Lost Irish Whiskey, Chai, and Pomegranate) for $22 - Although this had "chai" in it, the waitress told me this was an error. Not worth the $22 for this drink though. I didn't taste any pomegranate either. - 3/5 [SMALL PLATES] +Panko-Crusted Spanish Octopus ('nduja, fingerling potatoes, celery, red onions, green olives, and Mojo Picón sauce) for $27 - I would avoid ordering this. It's like octopus "nuggets," and the potatoes served with it tasted off. - 3/5 +Burrata di Bufala (roasted squash, pine nuts, and gremolata sauce) for $19 - The burrata paired with the roasted squash was okay. I would order something else next time. - 3.5/5 [SIDES] +Rosemary, Parmesan, and Truffle for $14 - This was the best item from brunch. - 4.5/5 Overall, the restaurant is nice and they change their menu seasonally. Some items are a miss seasonally, but we come back here and there to try out the new dishes. If you're in the Galleria shopping, Fig & Olive is a nice place to take a little food break if trying to avoid the food court. read more

This is a very nice, trendy spot located in the Galleria (along outer edge, can enter from parking lot directly or mall itself) near Saks. Great option for happy hour, light bites, or a nice meal out. Friendly and attentive staff so the whole experience will be pleasant. We were here for a large group event in one of their private rooms. Everything was handled quite nicely. One of my favorite bites of the night was the croquette appetizer; it was a fried mushroom puree and it was so rich and delicious! Highly recommend. parking: valet ($15) or normal mall parking garage options. read more

I dined in during the holidays with family and the service is what I expected it to be. Service, wait and bartending staff went ABOVE and beyond. I recommend everything on the menu. You could taste the fresh ingredients used in each drink, appetizer and curated food item. My father and I ordered the appetizer trio (Tasting Mezze) and they were served with flatbread. The flatbread was a bit on the dry side but it was paired perfectly with the baba ghanoush, which I say is hard to find authentic flavors not made at home. I ordered the wild mushroom croquettes and it left me wanting more. My father ordered a meat platter (I am plant based), but he said it was delectable. Our food was paired with a nice espresso (it is not that strong so I had to order three of them), and my father went with the house water Acqua Panna, their selection of sparkling water was disappointing. I was beyond surprised how delicious and delightful it all was. read more

Gorgeous space! High ceilings, airy and stylish, boasting a wall of windows. Aesthetically, you can't go wrong with this Fig & Olive. Our group of 10 enjoyed a casual business dinner which started with wine and cocktails plus several appetizers. Standouts for me: Mushroom Croquettes and the Tuna Meatballs. Several at the table had the filet, and some had the salmon. I had the mushroom pasta, which was rich and filling. The table shared all of the desserts. I tried the Bosque Cheesecake, which was not bad but not memorable. While the servers were sweet and gracious, it took a while to get out the dishes, which was surprising, considering the dining room was near empty when we arrived. This pushed our meal way into the evening, and, given our before sunrise start the next morning, that was a little annoying. Also, I had asked to take my remaining pasta (I ate less than half of it, and although the server said, "of course!" I never got it back. Hoping this was just an off night, because I'd certainly like to return, due to its proximity to our office in Williams Tower and the pleasant aesthetic. read more

I went to Fig & Olive on Christmas Eve and was pleasantly surprised. I have had this place in my list to try for a while, and I'm glad I finally checked it out. Ambiance: Warm, Cozy, Clean. There was plenty of seating. I was just about the only patron dining that evening aside from another family. Service: Attentive, Patient I was very well taken care of by my waiter. He didn't have much else to do, but he was very kind. Always had a smile. He knew the menu very well and was able to make suggestions based on my preferences. I wish I remembered his name... he was funny. He made the experience pleasurable especially since I was dining alone. He gave me enough space to enjoy my meal, but was always attentive to my needs and quickly appear if he noticed I was done with a course, or needed a water refill. The food: Tuna Meatballs 5/5: never had tuna meatballs before, they were pretty good. The white sauce they were served with in addition to the onions gave a very tart balance. Salmon: 5/5: Very well cooked. I like my salmon medium well and the chef did a delightful job of delivering my fish at perfect temperature. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Again this eggplant, pepper accompaniment sent me to the moon. It paired really well with my fish. The wine list was decent. I had a Sancerre. Any restaurant you can enjoy a glass of Sancerre is serious about wine. Overall I had a great meal here and I will be back! read more

Fig and Olive was our first restaurant choice to visit upon recently moving to the area. The menu options were the influencing factor. Upon arriving we were very impressed with the elegance and interior design. The background music was delightful & welcoming for the holidays, Service was impeccable and so was the staff. After a very nice glass of Champagne, Cab Sauvignon & Bordeaux, we began with the Wild Mushrooms Croquettes; and by far didn't disappoint. They were my favorite. The flavor was divine with just a slight crisp as they melted in your mouth. We also had the Burrata de Bafala as an appetizer but after having the croquettes it felt as though it lacked flavor. As for our main dishes, we had the Quinoa, Lentil & Kale Salad, Chicken Caesar Sandwich & Crepes Madam. For Dessert we ordered the Apple and Pear Crostata. All entrees were aamazing.

Gorgeous restaurant, inside and out. Interior design is relaxing, I came during lunch right at 12p on Friday. I was first to arrive, sat at the bar. (The best place for in & out service) I had only one hour to spare for lunch) I ordered octopus over chickpeas, gem salad, carrots & brussel sprouts no bacon. (Due to lent Friday) The carrots & brussel sprouts were good, small portion for the price. The octopus over chickpea. Was not great, the chickpeas were soggy like but the octopus was soft. I was thinking it would have a slight crisp from being grilled........ Drinks were decent! Thanks Jordan! Overall I would come back for the Instagram photos & vibe.

Very cute place with indoor, outdoor, and bar seating. They have a happy hour menu which is nice for road style dining and some discount on drinks. The website says HH is available on patio or bar but they only honored at the bar. The bartender was super nice and knowledgeable. We started with 1/2 dozen oysters for $16 very good. Also got the fem lettuce cups. Neither of us liked these. And the wild mushroom croquettes which were very good with a truffle aioli that wasn't too strong. We shared the burger which was also very good. I got the gig and olive cocktail which from Yelp reviews over the years it seems like they tend to change up what goes in it but it was very good.

As I was approaching the restaurant, I was immediately greeted with kind service. The employee opened the door for me and immediately sat my party down. The restaurant was very clean and luxurious. I was really satisfied with the taste of my dish but the only con is that I wish the portion was bigger as it did not fill me up at all. My party was still hungry but this is fine dining after all. I highly recommend the Tuna Paccheri as the noodles were so thick and flavorful. The dish had the taste of crab even though it was "tuna." The chocolate dessert was also delicious! It was practically chocolate pudding. Highly recommend as we were provided with excellent service during our stay! read more

I came here for my birthday and Houston restaurant week... and yikes. I didn't know steak and mashed potatoes could be made so badly. I think the whole place might be sponsored by the olive oil industry for as much as they add to their plates. I took my food to go (mostly to make some justice for the price) and seasoned it at home and dabbed off the excess oil with numerous napkins. I also declined a to go box for the dessert. How do you mess up chocolate cake?? This is certainly the type of restaurant for a blander palate olive oil aficionado. Service was very nice though. read more

Fig and olive has been on my list forever! I tried going once before but had to cancel my reservation. This time I made a reservation for 4 people on a Sunday dinner time 6:30pm and was surprised it was pretty empty. When all of us got in we got an vegetarian appetizer to share which was the hummus platter- included different carrots and vegetables with hummus. It was really unique but also pretty good- better than I expected. For the meal I ordered the only vegetarian thing on the menu which was the pasta. The pasta def was different/ the sauce was creamy and had topping of vegetables and nuts. It was good for sure but for the price I didn't think it was amazing. Parking is probably easiest at the galleria parking garage right underneath saks fifth store. The we took the elevator to the ground floor and walked to the right side. Def have to come a bit earlier for the parking and walking to make it on time for the reservation. As a vegetarian I wish fig and olive had more options and I would probably go there more often. But for now I was glad I was able to go there and cross it off my list. The ambience is super cute! Very brunch like! read more

Here's why they get a 4... The service was excellent & everyone was very attentive. 1 APPETIZERS Bruschetta: Give it a try! For Guests: Order the Burrata with Tomato & Prosciutto with Cheese & Fig ‍ For the Chef: A different bread could have been used to add a contrast of flavor such as sourdough, HOWEVER the versatility with the toppings was smart. The caramelized onions could have used butter to balance the pungency of the onion. The other toppings were great; my favorite was the tomato and burrata. Ahi Tuna: It's a fresh healthier option...protein lovers choice! For Guests: Be prepared to add salt & ask for lemon...adding these will make a huge difference ‍ For the Chef: The ahi tuna was fresh, but lacked flavor & the sauce was a bit bland. Try adding acidity such as lemon to the sauce & then salt to bring out the flavor more. If larger cuts of tuna will be used also be sure to marinate them because many consumers will not dip in the sauce first, & that first bite should still be flavorful. Croquettes: 10/10 WINNER...perfect flavor & fried to perfection! 2 ENTRÉES Paella: Not bad... Fries and Broccoli: Those are your sides to try! For Guests: Dig to the bottom of the paella for the crispy rice (textural win)! ‍ For the Chef: The calamari was a tad bit over cooked, dice those peppers a bit more (there were very large pieces), & if this is "quick paella"...you know what I mean lol marinate the shrimp first & also make some form of au jus to toss into the inside or the mussels so there's extra flavor there! 3 DESSERT Skillet Cake: Get this...you won't regret it! read more
