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.
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié la soirée passée là-bas, l'ambiance & le service étaient excellents. Une belle mention au propriétaire, qui veille réellement à sa clientèle & à la qualité de l'expérience. & mention spéciale à Joelle & au barman Corey, qui ont été très sympathiques. Je recommande ce restaurant!

Our experience was not what we expected. To begin with, I'm not a fan of how close the tables are to each other (see picture). We could hear the other couple's conversation, & of course they could hear ours, & the music didn't help. Terrible place for a date!
Then there's the food, which didn't feel like it had any quality or special ingredients. We ordered two appetizers:
Fritto Misto $26: a large plate of calamari, octopus, & shrimp. The plate is so large that the food at the bottom is full of oil, rubbery, & mushy. Not pleasant at all. Charcuterie plate $14: the cheese & charcuterie resemble what you would find at the supermarket. Terrible quality.
Main courses:
The Zozzona $28: the pasta didn't feel fresh & homemade, it was more like something bought at the supermarket, & the sauce was quite heavy & salty. It made my stomach hurt.
Funghi & Tartufo $26: stale, bland pasta with mushrooms & truffles, cream, & butter. Nothing special. We ordered dessert since we were celebrating a birthday, we ordered the dessert of the day for $14, which ended up being a lemon tart that didn't feel like it had been made recently, with cream cheese & a little lemon. We had two cocktails that were okay, but in the end they felt watered down.
In summary, the bill came to $185, for an unpleasant, expensive experience with mediocre food, therefore, I would not recommend the restaurant & would not return. In my opinion, there are better Italian restaurants in Montreal.
definitely worth the hype, we were more than satisfied with the zozonna pasta & the polpettes which were so savory!
we felt the service was a bit pushy, they clean up your tables & come over very often.
but i definitely recommend for date night! 💌
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!

What a great new spot in St Henri! Service was kind & attentive, sat at the bar (barstools actually comfortable so if you are a meal-at-the- bar lover, this is a great spot), charming & not too big. I had a delicious mocktail, my friend a regular cocktail, both great! We split the octopus, served with beans & it was perfectly cooked. We each chose the scallop risotto & highly recommend! Will definitely be back
It's one of those places that instantly makes you feel at home. The atmosphere is warm, lively, & welcoming which isbperfect for a night out with friends or a relaxed dinner.
The food is consistently excellent, with comforting Italian flavours & standout pasta dishes full of bold, well-balanced flavour. The cocktails are creative & pair perfectly with the menu.
What truly sets Figata apart is the people. The staff & owners treat you like family, creating a genuine sense of community that you feel the moment you walk in. Friendly, attentive service & great energy every time.
A must-visit spot in Montreal, highly recommend. 🍝🍸
had an incredible time at Figata! the service was so welcoming & created such a wonderful experience! the food was all delicious & fresh! would definitely recommend & will definitely be returning!
Just went for a dinner date with my boyfriend & I honestly can't say enough good things about this place. The food was absolutely incredible & the service was just as amazing truly one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in a long time.
Our waitress, Nira, & the buss girl, Giuliana, were both so kind, attentive, & genuine. They went above & beyond to make sure everything was perfect & made us feel so welcomed from the moment we sat down. Their positive energy really added to the whole experience & made the night even more special.
Can't wait to come back, highly recommend to anyone looking for great food, great service, & an overall amazing atmosphere.
Amazing food...honestly a 10/10 & I'm difficult. The staff was helpful & friendly & professional. Cocktails were great & they even treated us to a round of shots. A definite highly recommend!!!
Loved this place! Great food, great vibes, & super friendly staff. Everything we ordered was tasty, & the service was on point. Definitely a spot I'd recommend!
Wow!! Excellente découverte ! Le restaurant est chaleureux, la nourriture est délicieuse & le service impeccable. On sent la passion derrière chaque plat. Le personnel est très accueillant & attentif. Belle équipe! Je recommande sans hésiter :D
This is not another trendy Italian spot. This is soul, technique, & intention on a plate. Every dish feels thought through. Balanced. Generous without being heavy. Comforting without being predictable.
The pasta is the kind you remember. Perfect bite. Sauces that cling the way they should. Flavors that don't shout, they linger. You can taste the quality of the ingredients & the respect for tradition, with just enough modern edge to keep it exciting.
The space matters too. Warm. Inviting. Lively but intimate. The kind of room where conversations flow & time stretches. Service is attentive, natural, & genuinely kind. You feel welcomed, not managed.
Figata fits Saint-Henri beautifully. Grounded. Cool without trying. Confident in what it is.
This is a place you bring people you love. A place you return to. A place that will become a neighborhood classic.
