Review Summary

Overall, Café Figata earns praise for warm, unpretentious Italian cooking, a cozy atmosphere, and attentive service, with several reviewers singling out pasta and seafood such as polpette, vongole, mushroom pasta, octopus, and burrata, along with a solid focaccia and a strong wine list. The vibe is described as comfortable and romantic rather than trendy, making it a good option for date night or casual dinner. 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.

Figata absolutely delivers on all fronts - food, service, & overall vibe.

The food was outstanding - every dish was spot-on, full of flavour, & clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Easily one of those places where you end up ordering more than planned because everything looks (& tastes) that good.

Service was just as impressive. Attentive, welcoming, & seamless from start to finish - you feel taken care of without it ever being over the top.

As for the atmosphere, the place was buzzing. Great energy, a stylish crowd, & a lively yet refined ambiance that makes it perfect for both a fun night out or a special occasion.

All around, an exceptional experience. Definitely a spot worth going back to.

Charcuterie board was good, could have used a less basic cheese though. The artichokes were a pleasantly unique touch but not sure why they were piled on the sun-dried tomatoes. The sun-dried tomatoes were delicious. The cured meat was nice. Olives were good quality. Maybe serve it on a board?
The focaccia wasn't really like any other focaccia I get at other places. It's passable with the above platter but otherwise I wouldn't get it.
The Zozzona was disappointing, you couldn't taste & barely could see the sausage. There was nothing to balance out the strong cheeses.
I enjoyed the funghi e tartufo, very solid mushroom pasta dish.
Tiramisu wasn't cut properly & was mostly mascarpone. Didn't really have enough flavour to it.
Overall I think more effort could be put into presentation.
My Negroni Terra was good, very similar to a typical Negroni.
Cute decor. Nice 80s music. Excellent service. Was very helpful with the wine. Called me when my friend forgot her bag, which was very appreciated.

Fries - mid. Felt even under-salted. Crispy; I liked the shape, but the bowl came barely filled because the sauce cups took up so much room. There were a lot of scraps (half curlies, even 1/3rd curlies). -5
Meat sauce - boring, like just simple meat sauce.
Béchamel - good, okay sauce felt kind of like a mushroom saice.
The concept seems fun, but the flavours felt a little flat.
Caesar - good, very anchovy-forward!! -7.7
Perfect amount of parmesan - I liked it. If you don't like anchovies, you might not enjoy it (there were also some stray anchovies in the bowl). Some pieces were so saucy, I enjoyed that. Lettuce was fresh & good, but no croutons (she said she'd give us non-bacon ones, but we didn't get them) - still enjoyed it. Definitely an acquired taste.
Mushroom - noodle al dente a bit; I liked the noodle shape. It was good. While I love mushrooms, it felt almost like too many. Good, but Amerigo mushroom pasta is even better (though this was the best of the bunch). 7
Tomato - interesting spice. There was something a little weird in the sauce, like an unrecognizable, earthy flavour. I liked the shape, but it was solid average - nothing outstanding, literally just a tomato sauce with cheese. -5
Vodka - disappointing . Spice overpowering; doesn't taste like vodka sauce at all. Besides spice, it has no flavour whatsoever. Homemade is honestly better. -4
Service - good. They filled our water often. Our waitress was nice. Good romantic ambiance, dark, so if you're someone who pulls out a flashlight in dark restaurants, beware your flashlight will be out. Cute vibe - it's Italian, homey( with the tablecloths), but with a more fancy vibe.
All in all, everyone I went with, myself included, rated it between 5-6. for the total restaurant experience food wise.
It's a try-once-&-go-back-to-your-comfort-spot kind of place. Definitely overrated, & I wouldn't go back, just a place you try because everyone is posting on TikTok.

I am updating the review as it is now open as a restaurent. I came with my friend & we split the bufala & the mushroom sausage pasta. I think the bufala could maybe have a bit more flavour, but still very good. The pasta was very delicious. We had a tiramisu for dessert which was super yummy.
The service was good, & the atmosphere very nice!

Cute coffee counter! Prices are very reasonable for a to go coffee. Great spot to stop if your on a walk. Will be nice when the full location is open with seating. Didn't get any food, so can't rate it.
