Had lunch with family there. Very traditional dishes and classic decor not fancy but setting a relaxing atmosphere. We ordered raw beef and stuffed mushrooms for appetizers to share with the table. For main entry veal mushrooms risotto and two pasta dishes. Lunch menu is smaller but all items on dinner menu could be ordered too. We also ordered a tiramisu dessert. Very satisfying and delicious. We will be back. If I have to criticize one thing the risotto plating is so ugly. Almost like at home I have to feed my rebellious kid after a big fight, I would just dig out the rice and throw the stuff to a plate and give it to him to show how upset I am. The taste is good with love, hahaha.

A group of us went for valentines day and had the limited menu. Everything was excellent. The scallops were cooked perfectly, nice and soft, seasoned fantasticly. I had the pappaerell (sorry my spelling sucks) a really wide pasta with diced beef. So tender. The sauce was so deep in flavor. Excellent spot. Truly a 5 star spot.

My wife and I were in town for the holidays and chanced upon Cafe Figaro. We had the lasagne and house pappardelle; both excellent. The star of our experience, however, was atmosphere & ambience. Will, from the owners family, seemed to know everyone who came through the door and we immediately were made to feel like we’re regulars. His dad and sister were having dinner that night and greeted us on the way out. The place was packed but service never lagged and I could always get Will’s attention with just a glance. It was the essence of a great family owned neighborhood restaurant; one we both wished we lived near.

Wow wow wow....what great food. We had the drunken pasta with meat sauce, the meatball appetizers, eggplant, skirt steak duck special, tirmasu dessert (Best ever!), and raspberry torte. The owner and his staff gave a high level of service Everything was delicious. We will definitely return.

Just by chance, a colleague and I chose to dine at this restaurant. Unbeknownst to us, that evening was a special private menu for their Winter Wine Dinner. Will, the owner, graciously allowed us to partake in the event. It was awesome. Every course was superb and the wine choices were excellent. We returned the next evening and dined off the menu. Equally as good. Thanks to the staff and Cafe Figaro.
