About this restaurant

  • Good for business meals
  • Good for special occasions
  • Vegetarian-friendly
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.

    Service was worse than awful. Out of several menu items. Food arrived cold. Sat upstairs- quite noisy compared to downstairs. A truly unpleasant dining experience.

    Honestly it has deteriorated so much in this last year. The service was unacceptably horrible. Our server was Rude and couldn’t care about our table. We had three birthdays and she would not acknowledge. I’m sad because I have loved entertaining at this one and the one in NY. What a horrible experience. Choose another restaurant.

    We had an excellent dining experience. I would note that the text that I received to confirm our reservation was rather Tersely worded. You might want to revisit that for the future.

    Seated at a front table with an L shaped bench that was surprisingly comfortable and 2 padded arm chairs. Noise level was perfect for a business dinner. Service was excellent. And the food…. Espresso martinis were great just expensive. Bruschetta was an outstanding appetizer but very small portions and not easily shareable if you want to try different options (6 to choose from). Grilled octopus was an excellent small meal sized appetizer served with potatoes. Pasta all house made and delicious. This is my go-to dinner spot for trade shows at the convention center.

    This place needs to revamp everything from the menu, food preparation, decor (it’s old and tattered), and the service.

    Very nice space with a great vibe and ambience. Food was good - nothing great as my steak was unevenly cooked and mostly chewy. Service was amiable and medium slow…
