Amazing service from everyone. Food was incredible. Worth the hype
What guests say about Figata
Figata has a very high average rating and is often described as a great discovery in Montreal, especially for its pasta, appetizers, and desserts, with generous portions and good value for money. The service is most often described as warm, attentive, and welcoming, and the atmosphere is cozy, lively, and ideal for a night out with friends or a partner. A few reviews do mention occasionally slow or uneven service, a somewhat tight space, and some dishes that were saltier or less successful. For a friendly Italian evening, it seems worth the visit, but reservations and waiting may be expected.

Amazing amazing amazing
Amazing spot with great gluten free options! The food was so fresh and the portions were perfect. I highly recommend!
Meh! The food wasn’t that great, there are definitely better Italian restaurants around do not get the hype!
Great service!
No notes.
Was not a fan of the pasta, very bland and overpriced. Service was also mediocre. Wouldn’t go back
Warm and friendly and the food was fantastic. Drinks from the bartenders were top notch, especially the Italian Grey hound. The meatballs were out of this world. Going back soon !
I wish I could've given a great review because I had high expectations for this place. Unfortunately the service was horrible, the octopus was burnt to a crisp. It was not edible. I mentioned it and the waitress shrugged and said sorry. She didn't let us order our meal and said to eat the appetizers first (we were 4 and ordered 4 appetizers to share) but when it came time to order our meals, there was no steaks left. Didn't fill our water once. Tried explaining what guanciale was to my husband and I when we tried to find something that WAS available on the menu that night. We are both Italian, he just arrived here from Italy and needless to say guanciale and bacon are not the same thing and perhaps someone should inform her of this. There's tons more I can say but I'll refrain as I wasted enough time and money eating here. This place should be called SFIGATA... per chi ci mangia.
The food was very good but the service is really what elevated our experience. Victoria was amazing!!! Professional, kind, and attentive. It was a pleasure being served by her!
Such a charming neighborhood joint, the food was excellent but also the vibes and service were immaculate. Highly recommend
Incredible food and service! Victoria was amazing. Would definitely come back.
Figata absolutely delivers on all fronts — food, service, and overall vibe. The food was outstanding — every dish was spot-on, full of flavour, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Easily one of those places where you end up ordering more than planned because everything looks (and tastes) that good. Service was just as impressive. Attentive, welcoming, and seamless from start to finish — you feel taken care of without it ever being over the top. As for the atmosphere, the place was buzzing. Great energy, a stylish crowd, and a lively yet refined ambiance that makes it perfect for both a fun night out or a special occasion. All around, an exceptional experience. Definitely a spot worth going back to.
Figata is a great addition to the neighbourhood! The portion sizes are generous, and the atmosphere makes you want to linger. We were never rushed through our lovely three-course meal. Our waiter, Viral, was a standout: his suggestions were spot-on and he read the table perfectly, setting just the right pace for the evening.
Absolutely delicious food just came across it while walking in the neighbourhood. Even impressed me with the mushroom pasta and I dont like Italian lol. Shoutout to Viral our host he was super kind and helped us choose. Will def be back.
Had a great experience at Restaurant Figata. Fun vibe, friendly service, and a really solid menu. We shared a bunch of appetizers including the charcuterie board, focaccia, meatballs, Caesar salad, and burrata all delicious and perfect for the table. The pastas were just as good, and we finished with ice cream and tiramisu which hit the spot 🍝🍨 Newly opened and already feels like they’re doing things right. The place was full and the energy showed it. Definitely worth a visit 👍
Amazing food with some unique Italian cuisine not found elsewhere. Lot's of different Negroni choices, highly recommended.
Amazing food and service!
If there was a way to give more than 5 stars I would! Best cooked pasta I’ve had since being in Rome. Everything was delicious. Service , perfect and what a great vibrant yet low key atmosphere. A great evening overall. This place is going to be a big hit , get there before it gets even harder to get in!
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 and 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 and 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.
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, and of course they could hear ours, and 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, and shrimp. The plate is so large that the food at the bottom is full of oil, rubbery, and mushy. Not pleasant at all. Charcuterie plate $14: the cheese and charcuterie resemble what you would find at the supermarket. Terrible quality. Main courses: The Zozzona $28: the pasta didn't feel fresh and homemade, it was more like something bought at the supermarket, and the sauce was quite heavy and salty. It made my stomach hurt. Funghi and Tartufo $26: stale, bland pasta with mushrooms and truffles, cream, and 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 and 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 and would not return. In my opinion, there are better Italian restaurants in Montreal.
Well received at figata. Their pastas are out of this world. Incredible service by Victoria. Will be going back for sure!!! 🙏🔥
Simply the best Italian Restaurant! You really can't go wrong here! Staff is great and the Food is TOP NOTCH!
Overhyped, my mushroom pasta had no taste, the lamb skewers are like the ones you get at maxi frozen, the shrimp and calamari were horrible all the coating was falling off and soggy. The fries on the other hand are very good. Another problem was sitting right next to another couple we couldn't even talk without being heard or feeling comfortable. Not sure if ill be back.
Definitely did not disappoint. The food was delicious, the service by Elliot was great and the ambience was awesome. We had the meatballs, the cesare salad and the zazzone pasta . Can’t wait to go back ❤️❤️❤️
