4619 41st Street, NW via Olive Bistro

A few folks have wondered this week: “Do you know what’s up with Olive Bistro in Tenleytown?”

Tenleytown Main Street reports: “Unfortunately, Olive Bistro closed in January.”

Olive Bistro opened in the former Bread & Salt space back in July 2018. Updates when we learn what becomes of the space.

The wait for the new Surfside is finally over. And as you’ll see was well worth it. Oh my goodness. I went in for an early taste last week and have been smiling ever since. The space (see below) and the food/drinks turned out even better than I remembered at the old location. Some new items too. Anyway, I’ve been getting tons of inquiries about when they officially open to the public and I’m happy to say that time is now. Enjoy!
