Kindall HAugust 17, 2016I don't have a single complaint about this place. It is absolutely stellar. The steak tartare was our favorite and the martinis are delicious too. Will definitely be coming back here!
Andrea LNovember 8, 2014The food was heavenly. From starters to entree and the wrap up with desert trio. Great service, beautiful interior. Neighborhood smells like nearby chocolate factory. Love this area.
- Monti BrayMarch 4, 2015The burger with truffle fries is a basic but delicious option. Start with some of the mushroom croquettes and an assortment of crostinis if you really feel like going for it.
Shannon LindellFebruary 22, 2019The cocktails were delicious. The cheese plate a perfect accompaniment. Main dishes were delicious and dessert a dream. However it was all just too expensive!
Emily S.March 13, 2015Absolutely spectacular. Full of beautiful people and has stellar ambiance. Cocktails are great, as are crostini, risotto, cheese plate and mushroom truffle bites. Can't go wrong with anything here.
RobertoSeptember 3, 2014Patio seating a must. The Prix fixe menu is an outstanding value on Sun to Thursday. This bottle was amazing. Food superb. Sexy restaurant.
Redeye ChicagoSeptember 23, 2014Try this restaurant's namesake ingredients in the fig and olive salad, made with manchego, parmesan and gorgonzola cheese with a house-made dressing of dried fig, Spanish olive oil and balsamic. Read more- ElenaJune 27, 2016Truffle mushroom croquets, octopus, hamachi crudo, shrimp and prosciutto crostinis - all appetizers were great. Seafood paella was disappointing. Truffle risotto and sea bass were great.
- ElenaJune 27, 2016Beautiful interior with light colors and comfy seating. There is a big bar area that's really pretty as well. Food is good.
Kunal COctober 4, 2016The branzino is just amazing. You can't go wrong with that. Their signature cocktails are good too
Heather GAugust 29, 2014The crostini were all delicious - highly recommend. Pretty space. Interesting crowd - kind of sceny kind of old money. Might be a better lunch and drink spot if you don't for into either of those.
Kirstjen LorenzDecember 28, 2014Crostini are very good except for the crab which is a low grade crabmeat. Same goes for the crabcake at brunch which is basically held together by a very thick, crispy layer of breading.
Lindsey TothAugust 28, 2014The dirty martinis are delicious with authentic Mediterranean olives. Don't pass up the truffle risotto or the chocolate soufflé - both are to die for!
Roxanna FloresJuly 9, 2019Zucchini carpaccio is the BEST! I had the tuna entree and it was cooked perfectly.- Go during lunch for a leisurely meal. Crudo tasting, cheese plate, Summer in Provence (gin cocktail) and chocolate soufflé were all wonderful!
Chicago TribuneFebruary 4, 2015First-time participant is offering Mediterranean-inspired lunch and dinner menus; options include Maine lobster bisque, paella del mar, dessert crostini. Read more
Matt www.Travelyaps.comOctober 24, 2014Out of all the fig & olives I've been to so far, this is the nicest one. Great part of town. Great lounge seating.
Courtney DuncanOctober 29, 2014Salmon and Shrimp salad is amazing. Very light but yet filling. Perfect amount of food and the fish was cooked perfectly.
Varsha SheteApril 5, 2016Very spacious and good ambiance. The chicken tajine was excellent! A bit pricey but good for special occasions- The cucumber Cosmo is really good. You can go wrong with the truffle mushroom croquette for an appetizer.
Great atmosphere. California vibe in the heart of Chicago. Try the crudos or the crostinis to start.- Kaurik RajAugust 17, 2016Great food. Good service. An upper echelon experience with a personalized experience. Will recommend.
Kelly 🍰August 7, 2014See and be seen here. Fig and walnut julep and salmon tartare makes a tasty filling brunch!
StefanieOctober 17, 2014Absolutely gorgeous space inside and out! Lobster bisque special was disappointing...wish I ordered the pasta!
Madeline GullettAugust 9, 2015Fig and Olive was very cool! I loved the cozy chairs and bar. I wish there were more vegan options but the red quinoa salad was alright. The AC was way too cold though!
KeithJuly 2, 2014Opened up June 28th, dress to impress. Bar closes at 2, ambiance is upscale with an awesome two story restaurant and bar
Melissa ParkApril 24, 2015Olive oils are superior😇 get anything with truffles and you will be not disappointed!
Taylor KonigsederMarch 18, 2015Brussel sprouts, Mediterranean branzino and green apple sorbet. Need I say more?
ben mApril 19, 2015Been here 2x. Once service was shockingly bad. Once our res wasn't honored for almost an hour. Then valet took almost 40 mins to bring the car & it was the wrong car. Many better spots in town, avoid.
Zee AFebruary 8, 2015The crostinis are amazing. The carrot soup was decent but the paella was undercooked sadly. I wouldn't recommend it.
Dustin McQuaryJune 24, 2015I'd stick to the crostini and maybe have a drink or two. Great atmosphere, but the overpriced entrees leave something to be desired.
I absolutely love this place, so great to be back in Chicago! #BrunchUp 🥂
Christopher LilesSeptember 27, 2014Food was good. Service was slow and poor. Waiter forgot our appetizer. Also it was a 8 dollar up charge to add prosciutto to an already 17 dollar salad.

"Gorgeous rooftop. We ate like kings and everything was delicious. The meat + creme brûlée pie were stand out dishes. Salad and hamachi were very refreshing. Try the Aloe It's Me cocktail."

"Medi small plates where the smaller plates do steal the show. Recommend loading up on the more "app" type plates. Spicy hummus is a staple and a must. Sweet 🌽 risotto is unexpectedly light/bright"

"For a mall, this place has one of the best food courts, which is located on the mezzanine. The variety is great and worth the visit on their own merit."
