Figaro’s has great pizza and Italian dishes. Their margherita slices compare to those in NYC and are definitely the best in the area (trust me, I’ve tried every local slice). Pizza sauce is perfect, mozz and basil are fresh. And most importantly sauce to cheese ratio is always spot on.
A lot of people don’t know that they also make small and medium pies. They’re one of the few places in the area that do this and it’s awesome!
Other than pizza I can say that the soups they make are better than most Italian places nearby (minestrone is my personal favorite along with pasta fagioli). The penne vodka and baked ziti are both great. Would also recommend the Chicken francaise.
Servings are generous, entrees come with pasta, salad and usually bread. Service is always so friendly! Overall great hole in the wall...

So grab your family, order a cheese pie, some perfectly cooked mushroom risotto and a round of crisp Peroni's, and you'll walk out with your family, wallet and...

Was pleasantly surprised to be offered specials off menu on a Tuesday evening. Tried special stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer, and they told us "you picked the right place!"
Ok, maybe I'm fibbing about the food talking to me, but it did convey we made the...
