My recommendation to them would be to make it very clear when booking a reservation that "hightop tables" is not a tiny ledge hanging off your window. I venture to guess many would have booked that and assumed it was a high cocktail table of the sort. I put in my reservation we were planning a business meal implying conversation amongst 3. They put us in a corner on this ledge with tables pushed so close to us that it would force us to stare out the window and not converse naturally. They gave me such an attitude when I pointed out the inconvenience. You're a tapa sharing place how is this set up appropriate. I was then reminded briskly by their staff that I needed to keep my chair tucked in and face forward. I really cant say I enjoyed the food because I was very uncomfortable to focus on it, but it was OK for the most part. The risotto was the only dish I remember us not enjoying and left behind. (Meatballs, Calamari, Dates, and wine were the other items for no complaints). Overall, I am disappointed by business that take their customers for granted so I won't be back.

The only issue was getting the food quicker. Typically not a problem but this time it was. I shouldnt have to wait 1 hour after first serving to get rest of the food. Other than that, great.

Figo Wine Bar NEVER disappoints- will continue coming back here and recommending to family and friends from the city, and visiting.

Bartender, Host, and the entire staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and helpful with our bags as we came straight from the airport to Figo.

I came with a beast of a stroller and a cranky 1 year old. The two servers could not have been kinder and more helpful, even carrying the stroller up to a landing to store it. The much needed glass of wine I had was deliciously cold and crisp and all the food items were tasty and interesting. Love having this place in my neighborhood!

A nice selection of tapas in a cozy, but not cramped, space. We had tortellini, asparagus bruschetta and meatballs and all were good. They have a nice selection of cocktails on wine. Beer is not a focus. Very welcoming and relaxing.

Oysters were delicious & well shucked. The dates with speck were excellent, as was the artichoke bruschetta. We enjoyed an orange wine from Austria that was very lovely. The food & drinks came out quickly & ambiance was quiet & classy. Highly recommend.
Rebecca
Great food and drinks but they are strict about the 90 minute limit. Makes it hard to want to come here again if you are celebrating something or simply catching up with friends. There were several open tables as well as bar seating available yet we were told our time was up and had to leave. Disappointing.

Convenient bite for a show at The Vic, the only reason I would return. It was hopping, nice space. Brussels sprouts were very salty, couldn't finish it. Arancini was good, pear salad was bland, meatballs were okay. Our food arrived pretty quickly but we did not receive our drinks (one mixed, one wine) until at least 5 minutes after our food. Server was apologetic about drinks, but never checked on us again during our meal, we finished our water during our meal which remained empty.

Very nice place to get a drink and some small appetizers. The cheese portions were extremely small that's the only thing that I would complain about. Ambience and service was awesome
Food was really good! First time here and been wanting to stop by for awhile. Downside is you need to put your order all in at once immediately. Also the seating is too congested, had to flag down the waiter for water, felt rushed with their time limit, and was very loud.

The food was good! We loved how lively it was! Our server was kind but wasn't super attentive and it was hard to get refills or order more. I don't hold that to him as it was super busy! I wasn't a huge fan of the hanger steak but the pear salad was outstanding!
Michelle
Food was delicious; drinks and wine excellent! Great service. We had a show at The Vic to go to, so we at at 4 when they opened. Enjoyed our experience. Highly recommend!
Barbara
Food was good, nice atmosphere just a bit loud. Server was ok, but we had to flag him down to get second round of drinks after our glasses sat empty for over 15 min. Most importantly- PLEASE stop with the surcharge, we are all tired of it and starting to just take it out of the gratuity

Great place for food and drinks before a show at The Vic! Food and service both excellent!
