LOCATIONS

Welcome to Olive & Fig Mediterranean Kitchen, a charming culinary oasis nestled in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. With its warm and inviting atmosphere, this family-owned restaurant has quickly gained a reputation as a must-visit destination for Mediterranean cuisine enthusiasts. Located at 1533 Fording Island Rd #326, Olive & Fig showcases the rich flavors and traditions of the Mediterranean region, all while delivering an experience that feels like home.

As you step inside, you’re greeted by friendly faces, including the dynamic duo of owners Tammy and Chef Munjid, who together create a welcoming environment for every guest. Their passion for food and hospitality shines through in the well-curated menu and attentive service, making each visit memorable.

One highlight from the menu is the rack of lamb, which has received rave reviews from patrons like Ronnie Hargett, who described it as “the best this side of Lebanon.” Each bite showcases Chef Munjid's culinary expertise, combining seasoning and cooking techniques that honor traditional recipes.

This was our second attempt to eat at this little Mediterranean gem (was closed the day after Christmas). It was well worth the wait. I feasted on the best rack of lamb this side of Lebanon! My wife really enjoyed the seafood platter. I highly recommend dining here...Good Stuff!!!

Really friendly people working here when we showed up. Pretty good gyro for what I believe was frozen strips. I just didn't see any meat on a spiker. Plus the accompanying fires were awesome. The olive and fig flat bread was a surprise green olives instead of the traditional black. Finally, the halloumi cheese were so good, I forgot to take a pre eaten photo. And sadly, like so many outdoor seating in the US, it looks into the parking lot instead of a nice view.

The two waitresses running this place are simply amazing. The worked together like a fine oiled machine. Took time to find out about patrons, listened and genuinely laughed with the stories they heard. Victoria and her partner were the very best wait staff around...FOR LUNCH! My pita and fries were perfect.

The food here is absolutely delicious! Everything is always fresh! The staff is so knowledgeable about the menu. The lentil soup is a favorite, along with the chicken kabob. I’m from Chicago and this is better than most Mediterranean restaurants in the city! The atmosphere is cozy and authentic to what a restaurant in the Mediterranean feels like!!! Can’t wait to keep coming back!
