Tasted very chemically to the point it was in edible. They are very pretty but taste terrible. Very dissapointed.
Super creative desserts with friendly staff. Absolutely will be back.

Desserts are good, music is good. Nice atmosphere.
Very delicious desserts and coffee.
Slow service, very busy and dirty.
Affordable prices.
Price as high as the waiting time
Tried the carrot cake, sweet but not tasty
Got tea latte but barely warm and too sweet although asked for no sugar..
Disappointing
The texture of their gelato is off. I wouldn't come back here. Nice workers though. figaro
Save your money ordering from too good to go I usually order from the app to save some cash but this place just wasn’t giving as i expected it to be
Such a cute place! Beautiful treats. I tried the wipeout chocolate cake and it was so moist and rich. I didn’t care for the chocolate chips on it but that’s my preference. My bf likes the carrot cake, just wished the frosting wasn’t so sweet. Service was fast and friendly.
Awesome desserts!!!

I have found many delicious things here but I have also received items that tasted like they had accidentally been sprayed or otherwise contaminated with heavily scented household chemicals something like fabulouso or pine sol is effecting the flavor of some ingredient they use. I have only noticed this in items that contain gluten so maybe their flour is being contaminated but it was very strong and off putting to me. Not sure who cleans their shop but someone needs to do some investigation because I am not sure that cleansers like that should be used in a restaurant at all.
I’m gonna be dreaming about that hazelnut chocolate gelato 😋 it tasted just like a Bueno bar!
The gelato is very good but the cheesecake isn’t. $10 a slice is wild especially when it doesn’t taste good.
Visited Figaro in North Park after dinner with an old friend. We ordered a range of items to sample, including the Chocolate Marquise, Banana Butterscotch, Cloud 9, and a cookie & caramel gelato. They were all pretty interesting, though the Banana Butterscotch wasn’t that butterscotch-y, and the Chocolate Marquise was intensely rich. I really enjoyed the gelato massively! The staff was super friendly too.
The only thing I didn’t like much was the coffee. Whatever decaf espresso they used was simply way too bitter and difficult to drink. It was honestly some of the worst coffee I’ve had in a while. The desserts themselves were pretty nice and very well-presented, but the decaf espresso is a total no-go for me.
What a delicious discovery! We needed a pick me up before a concert at the Observatory. Figaro hit the spot. The German Chocolate Cake was delicious, with rich, decadent chocolate and just the right amount of coconut. The white chocolate cheesecake also rocked. Figaro is on our "must return" list, for sure.
