Great spot for cocktails! The ambiance is Great Gatsby meets a brutalist post war Germany warehouse. Delicious, creative drink menu and reasonably priced snacks. Also you get to be stared at by a taxidermy giraffe.

We just were there for drinks and loved the atmosphere of the cocktail bar. Not sure I ordered the correct drink for my taste by the presentation was great.

The sister to the Lion restaurant next door. Same owners and same great atmosphere with an unbelievable selection of very well sourced wines and Champagne. Amazing staff who were a joy. We don’t have the words to express how awesome this place is! This is the place to go when in

My wife and I went to Lemon and Olive Cocktail Bar yesterday for a drink and some tapas. We were disappointed to say the least. To begin with the hours on the website and on the door of the business are not the actual hours of operation. Apparently, this has been true for some time but the owners can't be bothered to correct it (which pretty much sums up the rest of this review).
The food was so bad I doubt that the homeless rummaging through the dumpsters would eat it. For example, the vegetables that accompanied the artichoke dip were in various states of decomposition: slimy, brown and spotted. I was so amazed that I took a picture of it. Under no circumstances should this have ever been served to the public. On another plate we had deviled eggs. Two of the three were edible. One had an odd, effervescent taste indicative of spoilage. The third dish was a rather odd looking shrimp cocktail that didn't look like any shrimp I have ever had before.
The drinks were adequate, but nothing special. When we left we decided to try to salvage something of the day by going to Rye. It was a night and day difference. If you want a cocktail and decent food Rye is the place to go. Definitely not Lemon and Olive.

Great cocktails ?
A craft cocktail bar with a giant television playing sports?! We have plenty of sports bars, that’s a real disappointment.
Such an eclectic little place. It’s the same ownership as Lion & Owl next door. The small plates to share are delightful both in appearance and taste. Reminds me a little of the food from the film The Menu (only from the start of the movie though). Cocktail selection is so much fun I wanted to try them all. Some remote friends of mine have a tradition: when someone is going to try a new bar they post the menu on the text thread and ask what drink to try. In this case each of my friends had a different suggestion. I only tried two on the first visit but I’ll definitely be returning. The menu is so intriguing. I had to google quite a few of the ingredients of both food and beverage.
Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian choices on the menu. Everything’s delicious.
Parking: Park in the pay lot behind the restaurant if you can’t find a metered spot in front.

Great selection of cocktails and they have low abv and non-alcoholic options for cocktails
Very nice place! Really great for a catch up with a friend or date night. They have a very elegant food menu with very good prices. The drink prices seemed kinda high to me.
I ordered the chicken meatballs and I couldn’t eat them all. My favorite thing about the meatballs is they weren’t greasy, they were high quality!
The drinks were delicious! They have yummy cocktails I haven’t had anywhere else but they also have local beers!
I would definitely recommend this as a place to go but maybe not for a group of over six people.
I’m gluten free and felt there were items I could eat on the menu.

An excellent place to enjoy small plates accompanied by a good glass of wine or cocktails. Their dishes are perfect for sharing, their variety of cocktails is very good. If you don't like cocktails much, they also offer wine and beer.

We stopped by Lemon & Olive for a glass of wine before dining at Lion & Owl next door. We loved it! Cool atmosphere, great wine selection, and very kind staff.

Exceptional service experience! It has such an incredibly diverse cocktail menu; thoughtful in execution and seasonal in the best way . The best crab cake I’ve had, outside of the Bay. A must for date night, or any night you want an indulgent and immersive experience that transports your senses.

Staff was snooty and unaccommodating. Menu overpriced. Wanted to like it but was there with a group and some were not treated with kindness or respect.
