I would describe Olive & Fig restaurant a family-style place and seems to attract large family groups, for celebrations etc. The... food is very good. Stopped by yesterday night, Friday, and this restaurant intrigued by the beautiful atmosphere, and it didn'tdisappoint at all, great service, great ambiance. They have a beautiful belly dancer who was delightful friendly lots of fun andall the guests enjoyed her dancing. Shall certainly be asking her to dance for us at future parties. Read more

Really fresh food. I got the chicken kabob wrap and it was very tasty. The taboule salad, hummus and falafel platter are... excellent ????. Head chef, his wife and the staff are so friendly. You will enjoy this place and the whole experience. Read more
This place was a great find while traveling to HHI. We will be back again and again. The feta was so fresh, the gyro meat was... awesome along with the hummus and don’t forget the baklava! Oh my so good! Tammy and Jessica treated us like family and wewill soon return! Read more
What an absolutely outstanding restaurant! The decor is beautiful, love the stained glass lamps and the authentic vibe of this... place. Owners Tammy and Munjid are so welcoming and friendly, they truly make you feel like family. Bartender Alaina was great,she made me the best cocktail I’ve ever had in my life, the olive and fig martini with pomegranate vodka and muddled fig.Dangerous I could chug that thing all night! My first visit was New Year’s Eve and they had a fixed menu so I got to try quitea lot and absolutely everything was outstanding. I had hummus, tabouleh, grape leaves and baba ganoush for an appetizer. It’sbeen sooo long since I’ve had grape leaves bc I’m usually disappointed in them, but these made me remember why I used tolove them! For the entree I had lamb chops, shrimp, saffron rice, and grilled veggies and each were done perfectly! I usuallyhate green peppers but something about the seasoning and perfect sear on them had me eating the whole plate. I could eat anentire platter of the veggies alone. The garlic sauce and harissa (beautifully spicy!) could go on everything I eat for the restof my life and I would be happy. The baklava dessert was the best I’ve ever had hands down. I went back last week and had thechicken kabob platter and everything was superb once again, chicken was perfectly cooked, tender and super juicy, and the staffwelcomed me back like an old friend. This will definitely be my new go to place for dining in Bluffton. Do yourself a favor andeat here regularly Read more
Oh my! This has been my favorite meal of our vacation. This is some of the best falafel I've ever eaten! We were running late... and decided on Olive & Fig. We thought it would be quick, cheap falafel sandwich like every other place we've ever been to. Irealized when the server asked us if we had reservations that this place wasn't like the others! We walked in about 45 minutesbefore close. We didn't realize it was such a nice restaurant and that we were going to be there after they closed. The staffwas great and we never felt rushed or felt like they were waiting for us. In fact, Tammy, the owner, came out and talked quite abit before we left. My wife and I had the falafel platter and my sons had a chicken schwarma and chicken kabob. Everyone reallyliked their food. I was worried my youngest was going to eat his side of fries and then say he wasn't hungry and not touch thekabob. Thankfully he didn't do that as both kids ate all their food. Were used to cheap falafel and this was definitely notcheap. It turned out to be one of the most expensive meals we had on our trip. But the price is certainly justified. This wassome of the best falafel I've ever had. All the stuff that goes with it was very flavorful too. I'm used to paying $8 for afalafel sandwich and this was x2 (+$2). My oldest and myself had a side of Batata Harra and my wife had Baba Ghanousch. All verygood! I've read about Lebanese cuisine before and have wanted to try it. I didn't meet Munjid but I do know he can cook! Ifwe're ever in the Savannah or HHI area again we'll definitely be back. The restaurant itself is very nice. Tammy mentioned thatthey are closing for a couple of months to remodel. She's got some custom art pieces that will be displayed when they reopen. Wewere impressed with the lighting and light fixtures. They were like a set of stain glass orbs. They are so pretty! Thank youOlive & Fig for the great dinner! Read more
Great place with excellent and fresh food! The halloumi cheese and falafels especially were the highlights. The atmosphere is... nice but an odd mix of Mediterranean restaurant and sports bar Read more
