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.
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.
Such a welcoming environment. The service was outstanding, the staff were attentive, genuinely friendly, & extremely helpful with recommendations & any questions we had. They made the whole experience smooth & enjoyable. This is definitely a restaurant to add to your list of restaurants to try in Montreal. The food was really good, the portions were huge, & it's very affordable.
We started with the crudo, which was outstanding. Fresh, well-balanced, & finished with an oil that was smooth & quietly carried the whole dish without overpowering it.
For mains, we shared the Spaghetti Vongole-simple, delicate, & really well executed-along with a truffle & mushroom fettuccine that was rich without being too heavy. Everything tasted thoughtful & well-paced. We paired it with a white wine we unfortunately forgot the name of, but it was perfect in the moment, which feels more important.
By the time we finished, we were very full. Still, the lemon cake was too tempting to pass up, & we didn't regret it.
The atmosphere was immaculate-cozy & inviting, intimate without feeling quiet. We may have had the best table in the house, but the energy carried throughout the space. It's the kind of place where you get so absorbed in the conversation & food that you momentarily forget what (or who) else is around you.
The staff made the experience even better-attentive, genuinely helpful, & great with recommendations. We felt well taken care of from start to finish.
A great choice for a date night or any kind of celebration. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves & would happily return.
Feels authentically Italian. Got the Negroni to start, & the name of the restaurant was ingraved on the ice. Nice touch! Food was awesome, & the homemade tiramisu…OUTSTANDING! Great addition to Saint-Henri.
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!!
Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish! The food was outstanding-authentic, beautifully prepared, & bursting with flavor. Every dish tasted fresh & thoughtfully made, & you can truly tell they care about quality. The service was warm, attentive, & welcoming without being overbearing, which made the evening even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was cozy & inviting, perfect for a relaxed dinner.

Figata absolutely impressed from start to finish. I had the chance to try just about everything on the menu, & every dish was outstanding - especially the pasta, which was easily some of the best I've had in a long time. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between warm & lively, making it an ideal spot for any occasion. On top of that, the service was attentive, knowledgeable, & genuinely welcoming. A fantastic dining experience all around - I'll definitely be back.
