“I loved the house salad but the owners daughter must not have listened to my request because it still came with tomatoes when I asked for none. We were not checked on at all which caused her to get a $2 tip. We were looked at in a way of less than we felt, so maybe that's why we weren't checked on. Bringing the food out we saw 3 different people and not our server. The first person brought out the appetizer. The second person brought out our waters. Then the third person brought out the food and it wasn't together it was at different times.“

“Great little neighborhood deli in N. Raleigh area. Ordered the Grand Gobbler on focaccia (bread was perfect & so fresh) & the potato salad (literally some of the best I’ve ever had). It was all so plentiful & so very good! Place has a very simple, but tasteful menu. Super nice staff working Sabrina & (Dalton brought our food out & spoke) he always does a perfect job on preparing our sandwiches! 🥪 Overall service was great! Definitely a must for a quick lunch stop! Will definitely be back asap!“

“I had one of my favorite meals recently at Figulina with a few friends. To start, they have a great list of mocktails in addition to their wine and beer list, which is always a plus given that half of my friends don't drink. We ordered the market greens and the honeycrisp apple salads to start and both were excellent. We followed that with a pasta course and the Paccheri is absolutely the way to go if you want a super savory, absolutely delicious pasta dish. For a sweeter dish that is equally amazing, try the Cappeletti. The one dish is don't recommend is the Malfadine/carbonara. It was extremely bland. (Our server said they had just changed out the ham used in the recipe and maybe that had something to do with it. I hope they work out the kinks.) Dinner was followed by tiramisu and the toasted almond ice cream dessert that came with peach compote and both of those were delicious as well. I will absolutely be back here.“

“I had an awesome time earlier this week celebrating a good friend's 25th birthday here. We had the rooftop reserved (both inside and outside). The supervisor Mac and the bartenders Greyson and Brittany were AWESOME! They helped to set the place for the reservation. They catered to the large volume and drink orders. They even made a desert with candles last minute as we sang "Happy Birthday!" The staff here definitely helped to make the night memorable and fun. I did not personally try the food but friends said that it was great! Service and atmosphere were both 10/10.“
