Overall, Figata in Saint Henri comes across as a warm, cozy Italian spot that delivers comforting, well executed dishes with generous portions and a welcoming vibe. The pasta shines across the board, with standout dishes like the zozzona, vongole, and mushroom pasta, and appetizers such as polpette and burrata receiving frequent praise. The atmosphere is intimate but lively, with refined yet approachable decor and a focus on classic Italian cooking done with balance and quality ingredients. Service is consistently friendly and attentive, making guests feel welcome without hovering. Cocktails and wine pair well with the menu, and the value is noted as strong for the size of portions. Some comments note that a couple of dishes can be saltier or lack sauce, and a few meals during opening weeks were not perfect, but the overall consensus is that Figata is a standout neighborhood gem worth returning to for date nights or gatherings. Many reviews describe leaving with leftovers and plans to return, confirming frequent recommendations and long term appeal.
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.
Had a great experience at Restaurant Figata. Fun vibe, friendly service, & a really solid menu.
We shared a bunch of appetizers including the charcuterie board, focaccia, meatballs, Caesar salad, & burrata all delicious & perfect for the table. The pastas were just as good, & we finished with ice cream & tiramisu which hit the spot 🍝🍨
Newly opened & already feels like they're doing things right. The place was full & the energy showed it. Definitely worth a visit 👍

Great time at Figata - I loved the vibe. The service was good & the atmosphere was really nice.
My two comments:
First, $19 for a drink is a bit excessive. I was actually the only one at the table who ordered one because everyone else found the price too high. I'm totally fine paying $14-15 for a cocktail, but when my drink is almost the same price as my main meal… I'm good, thanks.
Second, portion sizes were solid for my friends (risotto, mushroom pasta, & vodka pasta all looked great). My pasta vongole was delicious, & there was a generous amount of clams & sauce, but the actual pasta portion felt a bit light. It just needed a little more to balance the dish.
The calamari & shrimp were really good. The burrata was good as well. The focaccia, though, felt more like sliced bread than house-made focaccia.
Overall, I'd go back - I'd just rethink what I order next time… & probably stick to water.
Non c'e male. Il servizio era molto buono. Purtroppo la pasta era quasi cruda, e il sugo in generale non aveva tanto gusto - ci voleva qualcosa di piu. La focaccia era molto morbida
I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Figata & I'm still thinking about the meal days later. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, inviting, & effortlessly stylish.
We were served by Vee, who was truly fantastic. Attentive without being overbearing & knowledgeable about the menu. Vee elevated the entire evening with thoughtful recommendations & impeccable service.
To start, we had the polpette paired with fresh focaccia bread. You can taste the care & quality in every bite. For the main, the cowboy cut steak with broccolini was cooked to perfection. Juicy, tender, & beautifully seasoned. Napolitain ice cream for dessert was a great way to tie it all up.
Huge compliments to the chef for creating such a delicious & well-executed menu. Figata is a gem, & I can't wait to come back. If you're looking for exceptional Italian cuisine with top-tier service, this is the place. Highly recommend!
This restaurant is a beautiful addition to the Montreal restaurant scene! So I'll just review item by item

Outstanding! Food was fresh, delicious & the portions are very generous. Impeccable service - the polpettes & the vongole pasta were absolute hits. Warm focaccia was also devoured.
So nice to have delicious Italian nearby & parking is easy around.
Great vibes too!!
