While dining at Olives Friday, my waiter informed me that they’d be closing their doors for renovations after the evening’s service. Staff have been told that renovations, the restaurant’s first in 12 years, will last until at least the end of August, if not into early September. Hopefully these “renovations” are not a signal that the renowned dining establishment is not coming back, an unconfirmed DC restaurant community rumor, but rather that the restaurant is getting a much needed face lift.
