Our son got married on 21st January and we had been struggling to find a venue when a friend suggested we look at Figurati. We went for a Sunday lunch (which was very good and thoroughly recommended) to see what we thought of the place and immediately fell in love with the actual venue and the location right next to the marina in Ocean Village.
From our first approach to them about holding the wedding there, right through to the event itself, the staff could not have been more friendly, helpful and accommodating. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them and, having told them what our budget was, they worked with us to achieve that and the bill for the event was exactly what was agreed, no nasty surprises.
There was 60 people at the meal and the venue is a perfect size for that number, although it could have accommodated more if needed, and we had about 100 for the evening when the tables had been moved back to provide a dance floor. They were able to provide the DJ and we could have had live music if we wanted.
The food was excellent and the portions were enormous, there was no chance of anybody being hungry! There were good number of staff working so the service could not be faulted.
Additional food (pizzas) was provided later in the evening which went down really well.
With the location being next to the marina we were able to get some great wedding photographs as well.
Overall we had a brilliant day and this was in no small way down to the part played by Figurati and their staff. Thank you all for everything that you did for us.
Having had a couple of meals there, and now a wedding reception, I would definitely recommend this...

Read moreBad Experience With Figurati - No Communication or Follow-through.
I recently went through the hiring process with Figurati and had a very disappointing experience that has left a bad taste in my mouth. After submitting my application, I was invited to come in for a 2-hour trail shift. I took time out of my schedule to come in and complete the shift, with the understanding that I would hear back from them within a week about next steps.
The whole vibe at Figurati was nice, and the staff I interacted with were friendly and welcoming. However, this seemed to be just a façade, as after a week passed with no communication from them, I followed up via call. This lack of follow-through and ghosting felt incredibly disrespectful of my time.
If I was not the right fit for the role, the least Figurati could have done was send a brief email, message and or call letting me know. Instead, I was left wondering what happened and feeling like my time was completely wasted.
I understand that hiring can be a busy and complex process, but that is no excuse for such poor candidate experience; I am sharing this review in the hopes that Figurati will take a hard look at their hiring practices and find ways to improve their communication and follow-through with candidates.
Job seekers deserve respect, transparency and timely updates, even if they are not selected, my experience has been the opposite of that, and I would caution others against going through Figurati's hiring process unless significant...
