Olives & Figs

My lamb tagine was packed with flavour and I wanted to lick the bowl clean.. but I didn't want to embarrass those dining with me. Also, the staple houmous starter was served in a really tasty way. The coffee was good, and the service was good. Really pleased I lunched here, everything was delicious and good quality. Reccomended.

I recently discovered the Olives and Figs by accident. It is fairly basic restaurant with some limited outside seating but it's clean and the staff are friendly and attentive. The food is brilliant almost beyond description, the portions are generous and it is good value for money. Over the course of four days I ate my way through about half of the vegetarian selection. I particularly liked having several of the hot starters served together as a Mezze type main course for two people. I don't usually do deserts either but I certainly did there. Finally the mint tea was the most authentic that I have encountered outside of Morocco. I thoroughly recommend the place and it's well worth taking a ride out to deepest, darkest Golders Green just to exercise your tastebuds.
