Absolutely loved our experience at Figata. The passion fruit margaritas were hands down the best drink. The truffle mushroom pasta was exceptionally good, rich, flavorful, & cooked to perfection. Even the Caesar salad was amazing, which says a lot about how consistently delicious everything was. Such a great meal from start to finish. 10/10 would definitely recommend!
The food was amazing pasta perfectly cooked to al denté the sauce was rich & had a lot of depth to it. The focaccia is must! It melts in your mouth not to mention the service was also amazing my only complaint is I don't think curly fries nor the ceasar salad should be costing you 19$….
Well, I really wanted to like this place given all the rave reviews, but sadly it fell short. The service was great & I enjoyed the ambiance out on the terrace. Unfortunately, the food is pretty bland. The focaccia was extremely dense. The Caesar salad had no taste. My funghi orecchiette was also incredibly bland. Lacked salt & any other flavour. Certainly did not taste like mushrooms & even less so of any kind of truffle. Needed salt needed pepper needed garlic. Orecchiette was well cooked & it was in a cream sauce. C'est tout. Oh I had a passion fruit mocktail which was stellar. Maybe they should rebrand into a bar since cooking isn't really going well. I'm sorry to be so blunt but I haven't had a lacklustre meal out in Montreal in a long time. This was just bad.

Service & atmosphere was by far the best parts of the experience. Celia was fantastic, thoughtful, caring & personable. Style combines trendy but classic Italian. Playlist was awesome. Great drinks & some interesting takes on classics. can tell there is imagination behind the scenes.
Food was overall decent, but could be improved. Felt caesar salad was lacking flavour (other reviews said it was very anchovy forward which I didn't feel at all). Asked for extra salt & pepper even. Had the mushroom pasta, the pasta itself was well cooked & fresh but sauce was also lacking salt & umami.
Crudo was great. A bit sweet at first but actually goes well with the chilis.
Lamb skewers were solid. Frito misto was nicely breaded, fresh.
Dessert was interesting, there was a lot going on for one plate (cinnamon/brown sugar, pistachio, blueberry compote & a cream, plus pecans) but well baked, moist, gelato was good.
Overall I prefer the food at Amerigo, decent place for date night. Cost $200 plus tip, including two cocktails.
Overall, nice restaurant. The ceasar salad was disappointing, lacked flavor & one of our pastas was a tad undercooked. Cocktails were great & our waitress was kind.
What to say everything exceeded our expectations

Mains included Veal chops which was tender & flavour packed

For dessert the tiramisu was reminiscent of some of the best I've had in Sicily
Would definitely recommend & will definitely be going back soon
This place is a great place for all times of occasions. The vibes are immaculate, the service is amazing & the food was great. We got the follow accompanied by our rating & comments.
Cesar Salad - 4.5/5 - Lettuce was crisp, tons of parmesan & the addition of anchovies was a nice.
Veal&Beef Meatballs - 3/5 - Flavour was good but the meatballs itself was very soft. Felt like mash potatoes.
Mushroom Truffle Pasta - 5/5 - Pasta was perfectly cooked, a variety of different mushrooms used & very creamy & flavourful. 100% recommend if you like truffle/mushrooms.
Lobster Risotto - 4/5 - Asparagus added a nice crunch but nothing to rave about. Lobster was slightly tough but overall well balanced.
From the moment we stepped into Figata, we knew we were in for a great experience. The atmosphere was warm & inviting, & the staff made us feel welcome right away. A special shoutout to the hostess-her friendly energy truly set the tone for the entire evening.
We ordered a few dishes to share, & here's what stood out:
* Focaccia: An absolute must-order. Light, fluffy, & perfectly baked-such a great way to start the meal.
* Spaghetti Fries: We weren't sure what to expect, but they ended up being such a fun & delicious surprise. Pro tip: ask for the sauces on the side to keep them nice & crispy.
* Caesar Salad: Fresh, well-made, & flavorful. While it was good, it didn't quite stand out as much as the other dishes.
* Pasta: Easily the highlight of the night. We tried the Lumache Vodka & Funghi e Tartufo, & both were phenomenal. Rich, comforting, packed with flavor, & cooked to perfection-10/10 doesn't even do them justice.
* Dolci Tiramisu: The perfect ending to the meal. It tasted fresh, homemade, & had just the right balance of sweetness.
Overall, Figata exceeded our expectations. Between the incredible food, welcoming atmosphere, & outstanding service, it's definitely a spot we'll be coming back to. Highly recommend!
It certainly delivers! The appetizers were standout dishes, & the service was impeccable. The cesar salad wasn't to my taste (very overdressed) but the staff was extremely kind & accommodating. I love the atmosphere-I'm a sucker for Lady & the Tramp style checkered tables. This felt like sharing the last meatball with my love, but elevated. I will be going back.
This place is special!! A true gem. Hit all the marks. Great vibe. Incredible attention to detail. The food was outstanding. We order 2 pastas (Funghi E Tartufo & Zozzona - both photos here), as well as Spaghetti Fries, & Caesar Salad). First time, & not last. Very friendly owner & staff. Keep it up!!!
