Figata est un restaurant-bar italien moderne à Montréal, dirigé par le chef Stephen Marcone, créateur du Bistro Amerigo. Saveurs audacieuses, cocktails inventifs et plats à partager. L'apéritif réinventé.
Figata se présente comme une adresse italienne chaleureuse et accessible, où les plats solides et généreux cohabitent avec une ambiance cosy et conviviale; le menu met en valeur des pâtes bien al dente et des sauces équilibrées, des antipasti simples et frais, et des desserts remarquables comme un tiramisu qui fait l'unanimité, le tout servi par un personnel attentif et sympathique qui rend l'expérience agréable sans être intrusif; l'ensemble fait l'unanimité sur la qualité globale, les portions généreuses et le bon rapport qualité prix, en particulier pour ceux qui cherchent une cuisine italienne authentique et rassurante à Montréal; des bémols apparaissent toutefois lorsque le service est débordé ou certains plats peuvent sembler plus salés ou moins bien assaisonnés, et quelques plats ont été jugés moins mémorables ou manquant d'une touche d'audace; malgré ces nuances, l'impression générale est celle d'une nouvelle pépite du quartier, fiable et réconfortante, qui donne envie de revenir pour tester d'autres plats et profiter de l'atmosphere et du service.
I truly enjoyed my experience at this establishment. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was delightful, & the staff members were exceptionally friendly. Every item we ordered was delicious, & the service was impeccable.

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.
We were seated at the bar, & while I don't usually love that, there was ample room & it was good bar stools. The bartenders were super friendly & provided excellent service.
Now, most importantly, the food somehow lived up to the hype. 10/10 experience
Le service était minimal à notre arrivée, on remarquait nettement une différence de traitement selon ce que la clientèle commandait. Cela s'est aggravé en fin de service ; la serveuse nous a très mal parlé, de manière irrespectueuse, parce que notre sac était accroché à la chaise & bloquait son passage. Or, elle ne nous avait jamais indiqué où le placer, & le restaurant était tellement serré qu'on ne savait même pas où mettre nos effets personnels. Je ne recommande pas ce restaurant.
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! 💌

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!
Long story short, the same is legit, the place was great & I would go back. Its not cheap but it was definitely worth it.
Okay so full disclosure Italian is my least favorite type of restaurant to eat out at, not cause of the taste but I just feel like I can kindof make this at home vs like indian, thai, etc.
That said this place & experience was worthwhile. Recently opened & reservations were hard to come by but eventually got a table for two on a Wednesday night that ended up being packed as well.
The place isnt huge but its welcoming, perfectly lit, music at the right level & warm.
Servers were very friendly but it did take a while, that said it was busy so not the end of the world.
Menus are nice & simple started with couple of drinks, drinks & food are both just 2 sides, something to be said for simplicity.
We ordered a couple of cocktails, two appetizers & two mains which was ambitious & overkill.
We had the meatballs & the veggies apps, & for the mains the Zozzona & the mushroom pasta (Funghi E Tartupo).
The Funghi was the standout for both of us but everything tasted fresh, simple & rich at the same times.
Both mains were huge so its great for sharing I would say 2 apps & 1 main is enough to share for 2 ppl, even 1 app & a main but you will probably be taking something home like I did too.
Cute spot, but in a neighbourhood that already has a lot of great Italian restaurants we were expecting it to stand out. It really didn't. Mediocre at best; would sooner go back to Elenia, Gia, or Barbara.
Figata is just a really solid Italian restaurant that gets the basics right-& that's exactly why it works.
The vibe is warm & relaxed without feeling trendy or overdesigned. It's comfortable, well-lit, & feels like a place meant for eating & talking, not taking selfies. You sit down, order a glass of wine, & you're immediately at ease.
The food is the star. The pasta is excellent across the board: properly cooked, well-seasoned, & not drowned in sauce. The flavors are clean & confident. Nothing feels overworked or gimmicky. Whether it's a creamy mushroom pasta or a tomato-based dish finished with cheese, it tastes like someone in the kitchen actually knows what they're doing.
The appetizers are simple & done right. Burrata is fresh & creamy, vegetables are treated properly, & everything tastes like quality ingredients instead of kitchen tricks. It's classic Italian cooking with restraint, which is harder to find than it should be.
Service is friendly, efficient, & knows when to leave you alone. No hovering, no attitude, no upselling nonsense. Just solid, professional service. The wine list is strong, leans Italian, & pairs well with the menu without being overpriced.
Figata doesn't try to reinvent Italian food or chase trends. It focuses on execution, consistency, & comfort-& it delivers on all three. If you want dependable, well-made Italian food in Montreal, this is an easy five-star spot & a place you'll want to come back to.

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
This restaurant is a beautiful addition to the Montreal restaurant scene! So I'll just review item by item
Cesar salad best I've had in mtl by a mile
Spiral fries a little overhyped still yummy however
Calamari frito was so so so so so gooood crispy perfectly seasoned so fresh very good
Focaccia a little bit salty not my favorite
The vodka sauce pasta was just nuts best meal of the night spectacular
Tiramisú was on same level as the pasta so so good.
