Olive and Fig - Restaurant & Blues Bar | Hookah lounge

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. 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.

Owner response

This one is an absolute surprise: dining, live jazz, great service, all hidden at the very wear end of Roscoe Blvd. Bonus round: there's a speakeasy hidden in the back. Olive & Fig has a broad Mediterranean menu I would peg is Lebanese, including lamb, pork, seafood, beef, and a broad selection of vegetarian foods.
Foods.
Whoever's in the kitchen cares about the food, because it comes out beautiful, tasteful and tasty. Appetizer portions are generous and spectacular.
Dinner portions are regular and delicious. There is a limited cocktail bar, but it's real.
They've got about six beers on tap, and an extensive wine list. Service is attentive and our particular server, Cynthia, made our meal with bright interactions, excellent suggestions, and just about the perfect amount of attention. Live jazz two to four nights a week.
We saw The Aristocrats trio, with no cover in a half full restaurant.
The acoustics are great, the musicians were excellent and enjoying themselves, and the atmosphere was fantastic. The interior is clean, beautiful, dark ceilings with retro LED bulbs, a waterfall in the lobby and three distinct seating areas.
Booths, flat-tops, and a lounge area with deep couches.. Parking out front is limited to about 10 cars, but the mall just to the east is usually closed by dinner time and allows parking there. If you pass through the dining room, just passed the stage through some beautiful doors, there's a speakeasy back there.
Hookah, Cigar and the restaurant will serve.

One of the best spots I visited in a while! The food was very delicious! Service was excellent and as a cherry on top was very smooth and delicious hookah! Live music was greatly complimenting the vibe! Definitely recommend and will come back!
