Most items are seen as satisfying or standout, and portions are often generous, though prices for drinks can be high and a few dishes are noted as underseasoned or uneven, such as a tomato sauce that seems average and a vodka sauce that overpowers with spice. Some guests mention occasional pushiness during busy times, but many feel the food justifies the visit and would return. In short, Figata is viewed as a dependable, well-executed Italian spot with a welcoming atmosphere and solid dining experience.View restaurant profile
