Figo Restaurant Bar — Restaurant in Sydney

3 of us shared the ricotta, honey, black truffle with bread. Even with a light shaving of truffle the taste was dominant which was a great starter.

Next we ate the yellowfin tuna with ricotta. It was portioned well even with the 3 of us. I will be ordering that again.

The grilled Octopus tentacles were cooked perfectly. Absolutely stunning char that melted away in all of our mouths.

Next was the gnocchi. The interesting takeaway form this dish was the orange zest. I will be dancing with this element when I next cook gnocchi at home.

The seafood pasta was cooked just a splash past al dente. This was paired nicely with the textured of the cooked seafood. I however asked for some seasoning which elevated the flavours in this dish.

Last but far from not least was the squid ink tagliolini. Once seasoned this was the dish of the night. If I were eating alone and wanted Italian takeaway I would be capitalising on this. Bravo

I also have to commend the hospitality. All the way from entry to exit the staff were warming and felt really genuine on wanting us to enjoy our experience. I can't remember the name of the wine but I purchased a bottle of red that is made back in Italy by the chefs family. I asked to have it chilled and the waiter was very accommodating to do so. I recommend...

I wouldn't recommend this restaurant. I opted for the tasting menu, and while the appetizers were decent (the octopus was tender and flavorful, and the bread was good), the rest of the meal left much to be desired. The cod balls were strange—just salty with an odd texture. For the main course, I had the blue swimmer gnocchi, which was disappointing. It lacked any crab flavor, and the taste of eggs was overpowering. The gnocchi itself was incredibly soft, almost mushy—my 80-year-old grandmother might have liked it, but it just didn’t work for me. I also ordered the lamb, which was tender but lacked any distinct lamb flavor. The portions were ridiculously small—significantly smaller than the ones at the table next to us, even though they were ordering à la carte. It just didn’t seem fair that the tasting menu servings were so much smaller. I personally didn’t enjoy the ice cream with pickled cherries, but I’m not a fan of pickled fruit, so I won’t judge it. Overall, while the prices are reasonable, the food didn’t meet expectations, and the portion sizes were just too small for the price....

We visited this restaurant on their third day of trading, service was friendly and capable, I do really enjoy when the staff know their drinks and food. The setting is very welcoming and cosy, it's a great venue for a couple night or an intimate friends dinner.

The menu itself is nicely not ginormous, few starters and entree and a clear selection of Italian pastas and a wonderful veal cotoletta on the bone. Server with a rocket, Parmesan and tomatoes salad, a classic. The calamari where lightly fried,crispy and light, the tomato sauce was a nice touch .

The suggestion on the wine itself was to the point and I enjoyed drinking it. I would have loved more red options by the glass but that is just my opinion.

Overall this new restaurant have a solid and strong menu that allows you too have choices without getting overwhelmed. It's not a cheap eat, but you can easily find pricier venues.

I'll surely be back in the future for that nice dinner that we can indulge in every...
