Wonderful family owned, traditional Italian restaurant. The son of the founding father stopped by our table several times and personally engaged and delivered drinks/wine. Great food, service and atmosphere!

Cafe Figaro has been around since 1989. To last that long, they have a dish list that, while all classic, they do it well. I also tried the mushrooms ravioli special with cream sauce. I wish it was a regular dish. They have larger than normal portions which some with warm bread and a side of olive oil and balsamic for dipping. It it’s your first time, try the Bolognese, or fettuccine. The chicken Parmesan is huge as it comes with a side of pasta.

The environment is relatively packed and it is uncomfortable to sit. The appetizers were good, but the pasta was disappointing.

Such a nice cozy restaurant. The staff were super attentive and friendly. They have nice warm bread and a very tasty balsamic oil dip that they serve you once you get seated. They also know alot of their patrons by first name when I was there, which means loyal customers and I can see why.

Friendly service without hovering, Italian bread was hot and fresh. Had the vegetable soup, eggplant parm, and tiramisu. I enjoyed it and would visit again when back in town.

Basic American Italian food with very friendly homey atmosphere and service. I had the Linguini with clams which was passable. My husband had the mushroom risotto which he thought was quite good. The caprese was just ok.

An unexpected stop turned to good fortune thanks to the exceptional servers and the demand for excellence from the long-time chef at Cafe Figaro. Our knowledgeable server guided us to select the best restaurant meal I’ve tasted in decades. Turns out it is a favorite of the staff too.

Testy fresh food, real Italian atmosphere, friendly personal. Nice location, like in small old town. Open late which is very convenient.

Food is good: veal good but a tad salty, seafood frozen and detectable, sole (special) is good. Service glacially slow. One waiter for 2 turnovers during lunch. He tried hard, bit we had to flag him down many times just to order, request fresh dishes, get dessert. Noise medium: you can hear one another but ambient noise is loud despite the small size of the place.
