We Will be back ! Zuca still my favorite just as I remembered it, and the lasagna hit the mark for my hubby ' ! Great job Aaron !! Thank you !!

    Anytime you have to pick out your own ingredients, you're experimenting, but the fresh ingredients at Figo make it hard to go wrong! Delicious and fast.

    Figo Pasta offers tasty and flavorful custom pasta bowls with a twist. I had the cheese ravioli pasta with Italian sausage, grilled chicken, broccoli and parmesan. It was served hot and delicious--perfect option for a satisfying lunch. Presentation is not the best but I promise it tastes better than it looks!

    We got take-out. I wasn't sure what to expect because of the mixed Yelp reviews. We thought the food was pretty good. The people were very friendly and quick. Our food was piping hot when we picked it up. The portion sizes were great and so were the prices. I ended up getting a make your own pasta and my dad got the lasagna. Both were very flavorful but I wish mine had a little more sauce. We also tried a caprese salad which was refreshing. I would order take out again! I really can't complain about our experience.

    FIGO Pasta keeps moving or closing on me (at least, the locations close to me). First, it was the popular, old Howell Mill location in Westside (https://www.yelp.com/biz/figo-atlanta) which moved to Marietta Street in late 2014/early 2015 (https://www.yelp.com/biz/figo-pasta-west-midtown-atlanta). Then, that location closed in late 2018/early 2019, leaving the next-closest FIGO to be this one, the Buckhead or "Upper Westside" location, which moved across the street from its old location on Collier Road to its current location here on Defoors Ferry in October 2018. At the time of writing this review, three other locations exist: Downtown, Edgewood, and Vinings. I've always been a fan of FIGO, but I'm a bigger fan of them now than ever because of the mushroom pasta I had on my last visit. It was phenomenal. The best and most memorable mushroom pasta I've had to date. The other food was at the FIGO standard: good. I recommend this place if you're in the mood for delicious yet affordable Italian. We got the fettuccine pasta ($4.55) with funghi sauce ($4.85). It's made with wild mushrooms, cream, and garlic. We also got the Kale & More salad ($7.25) that comes with kale, roasted corn, hearts of palm, pickled Fresno peppers, chia seeds, and jalapeno dressing, Mamma Edia's Eggplant ($9.85) made with sliced baked eggplant, tomato sauce, and Parmigiano Reggiano, and a blood orange margarita ($7.50) prepared with Lunazul Tequila, blood orange sour, and triple sec. The fettuccine pasta with funghi sauce was perfect in every way, from the texture of the noodles to the taste, consistency, and amount of sauce. These were some of the most appetizing fettuccine noodles I've tried. Soft, thin, ribbony, and delicate, but nice and chewy too. As for the sauce, it was really flavorful, but not overpowering. This may sound stupid, but it tasted like Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup, one of my favorite soups growing up. Light and creamy with excellent mushroom flavor. There was parsley on top with some freshly grated Parmesan (optional, done tableside). I really liked the Kale & More salad. The kale was served in big leaves, not massaged, so it was relatively rough and coarse. I didn't mind this, but I think my fiancee prefers softer kale. All of the ingredients were fresh and yummy. There was a nice balance of ingredients and dressing. The crisp, juicy hearts of palm were a nice touch. I was expecting a bigger portion for Mamma Edia's Eggplant, but what I received was fine. It was a satisfying Eggplant Parmesan. No complaints and I'd order it again. As for the blood orange margarita, I don't think I can recommend it. The portion size seemed small and the beverage was a bit watered down and not as tasty as I had hoped. FIGO makes all sorts of pasta fresh daily. Along with selling the pasta in its entrees, they also sell the pasta "raw" by itself. It's available in fridges near the register. They offer different varieties of penne, rigatoni, gemelli, fusilli, and long pasta (e.g. linguine, tagliatelle) starting at $4.55. They have many kinds of ravioli starting at $5.60. Sauces run the gamut from olive oil and tomato-based sauces to sauces featuring meat and seafood ($4.85-4.95 for most). Then they've got other items like apps such as bruschetta ($5.60) and arancini ($6.50), soups, salads, and sides plus panini, entrees such as lasagna ($9.85), and desserts such as tiramisu ($5.85). Beverage-wise, they serve beer, wine, champagne, and cocktails. The restaurant has sort of a weird, hybrid, fast-casual/sit-down setup. We ordered upfront at the register as if we were at a fast-casual place, but then received sit-down service after we sat down. They brought the check to and we paid at our table. Service was great from everyone. The staff was polite and attentive. There's not much to the interior/exterior. It was renovated/built when FIGO moved in. The dining room is a simple, open space with booths, a banquette, and tables and the patio is covered and spacious. Fairly minimal in decor. It's a laid back, comfortable, and casual spot. The restaurant is situated in an unassuming strip with Papa John's and Ssam Burger. There should be plenty of parking. If you can't find spots out front, there are more spaces behind the building.

    Absolutely horrible. I'm shocked at how horrendous this food is. One dish was over $20 on its own and not worth a fraction of that. Everything was completely inedible.

    I don't typically review to-go orders, but I was surprised to see so many reviews on bad service. I put my order in online and my food was ready almost immediately when I stopped by to pick it up 10 minutes later. I had the curry chicken and it was very tasty. I'm not huge on curry, but this was recommended and has a great subtle curry flavor. I'd get it again.

I put in the notes of my reservation that it was my birthday and everyone stopped by my table and greeted me with a warm happy birthday. That was a really nice touch. My waitress offered me a free glass of champagne for my birthday and I definitely wasn't gonna turn that down. I got the veal meatballs as my appetizer. I love that they were weren't heavy and dense. They were very light and delicious. I also chose the chopped salad, but I wanted it to come out with my entrée. The chopped salad was good. Had pepper notes to it. The only thing I would do next time is ask for it not to be green peas in it. Just because I'm not a fan. For my entrée I got the cannelloni. The lamb shoulder inside was so tender. It was very cheesy and delicious. It also had green peas in it, which I didn't pay attention to on the menu. I would also ask for there not to be green peas in the kennel only again that's just my taste. But that did not stop me from eating it all. I also had the blood orange margarita which was really good. This was my first time at this restaurant, but it definitely will not be the last. I loved the vibe of the restaurant.

It's amazing. Place looked like we time warped in all the best ways. It looked like it was straight outta a Sopranos episode. Staff is dressed to the nines. Customers too. Loved it. And the food, forgetta bout it. We went with our kiddos and had half the menu. All of us trying each others food. All of it amazing. With that, we made a point to act like it was 80-90s era and didn't use our phones, so no pics.

Valet is complimentary which is great and they provide directions for how to get in to the restaurant. The hostess was super nice and our table just needed a few minutes to get cleaned off. Once seated, we settled on a good bottle of Malbec to drink which was delicious. For an appetizer, we got the mussels which were probably some of the best mussels I have ever had using the bread to soak up the sauce was divine. Truly delicious. For the pasta, I got the the tortelli de vitello which was so good. Some of us at the table also tried the shrimp linguine which was delicious and so fresh as well as the chicken parm which was MASSIVE and came with a great side of pasta. We also tried the little pasta shells/ears with sausage and broccolini and it was delish. Truly these dishes were stunning and cannot wait to have it again! To wrap up the dinner, we got some coffees and the tiramisu... Which was delicious and as stunning as everyone says. Overall, this meal was divine. The vibes of the restaurant really bring it up because it is so calm and classic and just such a great place for a lovely meal. 10/10

Free small parking lot in front. Free extra parking across the street. The total was about $150 for 2 appetizers, 2 entrees, 2 drinks, and a dessert. Pros The quiet, intimate, and classy atmosphere was exactly what I needed for my family. When we first arrived, our table was not ready and we had to wait outside. However we were given continuous updates on when the table would be ready, they apologized, and they were very understanding. Considering we were a large party in an intimate space, we understood and only waited about 20 minutes before the table was ready. You could tell the food was fresh, the orders came fast, and the service was amazing. The fresh in house pasta took everything to the next level. It was the perfect night out. Cons The establishment is intimate so I do not think it would ideal for extra large parties. I had a party of 8 at 8PM but I dont know if they could have accomodated us if it was any earlier during prime dinner time. I wish they had a better parking situation but its not bad and its free. Would I Recommend: Absolutely! I will be returning! No complaints. Follow me here on Yelp and @jessreviewss on Tik Tok/Instagram for more.

It's cozy, (plenty warm) and romantic! It was 32 degrees outside, but completely comfortably warm, inside. You truly wouldn't know you weren't inside. Any way, I've eaten my way through Inman Park but somehow hadn't yet indulged in the delectable Sotto Sotto. This might just be my new favorite Italian in Atlanta. It was absolutely delicious. Across the table (thanks to the half portion option), we tried at least 8 items on the menu! Each one was more special then the next. Our incredible server Kagen (sp?) walked us through each section of the menu absolutely perfectly. As a result we ended up ordering some of his favs from across the menu. In my photos you can see what we ordered, but my recommendation is to simply ask your server what they like and you'll undoubtably get something stellar. In a market of many, great Italian options, Sotto Sotto might just be the BEST and my new fav!!! I absolutely can't wait to return.

There were a couple of other things but don't want a 5 page review I cannot remember his name but a taller white guy with a messy bun and tired eyes. We still left a tip because that's what you do when you go out but if he treated his other tables like he did us I wouldn't be surprised if we were the only ones that tipped. I suggest not going on a busy night to get good service I guess. My group was 4 ppl 2 couples trying to enjoy a nice double date without the craziness of v-day next time we will celebrate days before. Will for sure be going back and hope you give them a try but if that's how the waiter greets himself please go ahead and ask for a different server!!!!
