    Went here for a second time. Had to downgrade my review this time. Our server Juan, was anything but pleasant. Almost seemed as if we were bothering him to be there. Long story short, we waited over 25 minutes for him to bring us our check and while we were waiting, another server was taking photos for a group of women and while taking this photo she not only impeded our space, she was actually in a leaning backwards position with her long hair on our table. Very uncouth. Please do better. Food was good. VERY Noisy. Not a place to go to if you want an intimate evening. Live band was amazing also.

    I really enjoyed the live jazz band and the ambiance of this restaurant. The waiter was also very informative about their specials and the most popular items on the menu. As far as the food goes, it was just ok. I felt like our appetizer ( I forgot the exact name but it was similar to a cheese empanada) was too salty and my husband also mentioned that his entree had so much sodium in it to the point where it took away from the flavor of the food.

    The inside of the restaurant is lovely with fireplaces and great lighting. Although we didn't show up on a day where they had jazz, it was a lovely restaurant. The service was great. He was very attentive, even though they close in an hour they allowed us to eat in peace. All 4 of us truly appreciated it !! The food came out cooked to perfection and tasted great. Their rice was the fluffiest and tastiest I've had in forever!! They only serve beer and wine which is fine with me. Oh they also serve wine based cocktails .. not something I'm particularly interested in but it would be nice for someone seeking something outside of the norm. I'd love to return again on a night that they have just to experience the meal with a jazz band.

    THE BEST Greek salad my taste buds have experienced!

    EDIT: Disappointed to find the receipt included a 20% gratuity (for two) and we added another 20% tip = 40% tip!? it was good, but not 40% tip good....i find this so shady! Almost $200 for 2 people is ridiculous! Minus 2 stars. Found this place by pure luck and what a treasure it was! The Sunday eve ambiance was sophisticated and sexy with its elevated Mediterranean cuisine, moody lounge with dimmed ceiling string lights, wall candles and faux fireplace. The food and wine impressed! We ordered wine, fig & goat cheese (to die for), the dip trio and Greek salad- all 5-stars (except the pita fell a little flat-didn't taste fresh). Then the live music began... a little seductive intro and sultry songs from the big screen giving old Hollywood vibes. We lingered to listen more and opted for a dessert to split and ordered a Napoleon which was the most light, flakey and decadent sweet I've ever had the pleasure of putting in my mouth. Seriously. Even the vanilla cream was so light, it left me feeling guilt-free and overall slight sedated with the entire experience. My only regret is not taking photos of the fig & goat cheese appetizer and the Napoleon dessert, both were beautifully presented and oh so delicious!

    What a hidden gem! Tucked up in West Hills, this little restaurant will not disappoint. Nicely decorated entry way, nice big screened in patio, and nice dining room filled with twinkle lights. The blues is such a treat. Really talented musicians. Nice little stage set up at the front of the dining room. You can hear the music from inside or on the patio. Great wine selection. The food is yummy - although it overly relies on cheese to create flavor. Rich fat bombs, that are of course delicious, but heavy. We had the cheese burka. It's basically a mozzarella stick in a pastry dough. The mushroom julienne was a new item on the menu. The description in the menu doesn't describe it well. It's sautéed mushroom and onion which is then baked in cheese. Like a mushroom cheese dip. It should be served with pita on the side, but isn't. So we asked for some pita. The pita was just plain pita, barely heated. The branzino is really good. It's not a whole fish. It's 2 fillets, nicely cooked. The mashed potatoes on the side are perfect. They are the same potatoes as served with the steak. We ordered the crème brûlée. Unfortunately it was not brought out right after it was fired, so it was served with an over crisp sugar top and cold custard. The chef sent out a taste of the roast beef as a surprise. Wow. That was a tender piece of meat. So yummy.

    I absolutely adored this restaurant! The whole ambiance of the restaurant was amazing. I enjoyed listening to live music while eating & drinking. You have to try the trio for your appetizer. It was divine! One of the best parts of this place is the hooka bar in the back. After dinner, I spent another hour and a half drinking and smoking hooka. Yuri helped us out and he was amazing!

    Looks much better than it tastes the meat Trio

    Not much into jazz but there was a birthday party planned here and went to this very obscure location located on the end of Roscoe and Valley Circle. Very tacky to charge 10.00 valet parking in a shopping mall Corner strip type place I just parked the cross the street for free. The Armenian mafia imposes its will once again. The interior is typical Armenian decor nice clean and modern furniture with colorfuul lighting. There was a dude singing some tunes mostly from the '80s he did a good job playing the keyboard at the same time. The inside is very cozy but now let's get to the food which is what matters more than anything. The appetizer crispy puff pastry cheese boreg was delicious. I also had probably the best french fries I've had at a restaurant. Unfortunately the buck stops here in terms of taste and quality. Salad was crisp but lacked seasoning. The hummus trio (only tried hummus) was flavorless, super bland. The rice was fluffy white good, but the meats were zero flavor to borderline awful. The lule (skewered grilled ground beef) was the worst, rubbery and non-existent of flavor. Chicken breast chunks dry and zero flavor. The shish kabob pieces were large, tough to chew and-you guessed it-zippo flavor. Cant recall tasting more bland food/meat in my life. Overpaid my dues and although an easy one and done, appreciated the service and ambience and tunes, so giving 3. But besides the boreg and fries, food is 1-2 stars at best, especially the main meats.

    Bar has many great wine and soft cocktail options

    It is not easy to find a nice, cute little place in LA that would have it all: a substantial menu, delicious food, great drinks, kind service, ambient atmosphere, AND entertainment. All of these under one roof in a quiet corner of Canoga Park. Is this a reality? How come residents of Canoga Park got so lucky??? Live music 5 days a week. Blues or Jazz. The cover charge is so worth it, besides, musicians deserve to be paid. Sturgeon fish as a main dish is another level of dining experience. If you love and appreciate food, you will definitely find something you'll enjoy on the menu. Next time I'm trying their mushroom julienne and lamb chops. The bar doesn't serve hard liquor yet, but the bartender makes incredibly balanced and tasty cocktails anyway. It's a gift, I guess. If you feel adventurous, as I did, ask for something off the cocktail menu. My discovery was limoncello with peach and champagne, as well as some cherry drink. If I lived closer, I'd be coming here almost every night because it feels cozy and homey, not like you are in a big fancy restaurant where no one cares about you. Here, I felt really good and will be coming back for sure.

    5 stars for the vibe and service but sad to say the food is 2 stars at best. We live walking distance down the street and had been dying to try this place. My girlfriends and I decided to have a girls dinner date night here. It's very cute, definitely a vibe. They don't serve hard liquor (beer & wine only) but I think they are in the process of getting their license so hopefully soon they'll have some cocktails on the menu. The Babaganoush was awful. Served very cold (as if it came out of a refrigerator) & it is not like a spread or a dip. It's pieces of eggplant in a strange oily base. I have a lot of Lebanese and Syrian friends and have never had baba ganoush like olive & fig serves it. No bueno! I ordered the chicken lula and one of my girlfriends ordered the beef lula kebob plate. They were served cold... we are not complainers by any means but if we are paying to eat out we at least expect a warm meal. The server was very kind, he sent it back. The chef came out to apologize & warmed our food up for us. I would say it was 5/10 very averages. My other girlfriend ordered the chicken shwarma. It was cold but it was so disgusting. It tasted like it was marinated in pickle juice and a few bites gave her a stomach ache. The quick shops like Panini kebob grill have much better quality & tasty food and that should not be the case. It was really crowded so this place is definitely a great time with the live music but I hope they do better with their food quality. The only good item we tried was the hummus.

    Disappointed. Fig & Olive Restaurant and Jazz Bar is such a cute restaurant, but fell short on so many aspects. Service is terrible. First, our initial waitress took awhile to introduce herself and take drink orders. By that time, we placed our dinner order and never saw her again. Our second waiter shows up to check on us and take my friend's order, as she arrived late. There was no communication, in regards to the changing of the servers/wait staff btw ...only after the fact, due to our group complained to the wait staff about service. The second server checked on us, I asked for more water and he never came back (WTH?). Tsk tsk... they need to get it together here. Place was busy with birthday parties that night, but that should be no excuse for lack of and poor service. Food was a let down. I ordered the veggie wrap with fries $10.50 - fries were undercooked and my wrap didn't have all the listed ingredients, as it was missing lettuce. Only thing good, was the live music that night (was a Sunday night) and $6 for 16oz beer. Valet parking for $7 and only 1 guy working the lot, so it'll take awhile for your car. Arrive early, as there aren't many spots available for valet. Oh well ... too bad not every Yelp restaurant adventure gets 5 shiny stars ... Stay safe and healthy (mind, body and soul) Yelping out there :)

    Hands down one of the best places in the valley. Food is so rich and delicious, service was great, and even the host was kind and welcoming. Inside is very cozy and has the vibe of a place in WEHO or LA but with MUCH less people. It was so cozy and relaxed on a Friday night at 10 pm...definitely will be returning.

    Meat Borek
    Jim G.

    What a great new find! Jazz at around 7pm, the food is excellent, and the service from Evangeline was perfect. Don't miss the Meat Borek. Crispy and full of flavor. Also very reasonably priced and large selection of wines to choose from. Valet service available or parking across the street for free.

This spot is takeout only, hidden in what basically feels like a restaurant warehouse, and as you walk down to pick up your food you genuinely start wondering, "Where the hell am I?"

Perfectly seasoned, insanely flavorful, fluffy rice, and the shirazi salad absolutely slapped. All this for $15 in 2026 when gas is $6.30. And the service? So kind. The person I called taking my order was sweet, everyone at pickup was welcoming, and I swear someone's grandma was in the kitchen because the food tasted like a warm hug. I don't usually write reviews unless the food is genuinely special, and I definitely don't gatekeep good food. So if you're craving Persian food, place the order now.

What I appreciated the most is the kind service. I could tell there was a lot of positive energy there. I'll be back whenever I'm in the area. In the meantime, I'm wishing them all the best and much success. Shukriya and merci!

    This was, without a doubt, one of the worst restaurant experiences I've ever had…read more We came with a large group to watch a World Cup game because we wanted to support a local business. Instead of feeling welcomed, we were treated with rudeness and complete unprofessionalism by the owner. When we tried to order food during the game, the owner told us we would have to wait until the game was over--almost three hours later. His attitude was dismissive and disrespectful, making us feel like we were bothering him instead of being paying customers. To make matters worse, the menu was extremely limited. There were only about three food options available, leaving us with almost nothing to choose from. The kebabs tasted old and were dry and disappointing. The quality of the food did not match what we expected, and the overall dining experience was terrible. The owner appeared to be the only person running the restaurant--serving customers, cooking, and managing everything himself--with little to no staff. The result was slow, disorganized, and unacceptable service. We brought a large group and genuinely wanted to support this local business, but instead we left feeling frustrated and unwelcome. In my opinion, the owner's attitude and lack of customer service are the biggest reasons this business struggles. From the poor food quality to the extremely rude service, the entire experience was a disaster. I will never return and cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone.
