Figaros in Ryedale

As a family of 5, we visited Pickering during half term. We read great things about Figaros so decided to book a table for dinner. We are all so glad we did, we couldn't fault any aspect of our meal. We were also amazed at the reasonable prices when compared to our local Italian restaurants in Leicestershire. Booking seems to be essential, we watched at least 10 people get turned away without a booking.

A small and cosy restaurant. Where we were sat, upstairs, I had to keep moving or leaning out of the way for service to get to the table behind us. The staff are really friendly and welcoming. Food was amazing. So tasty. Prices are reasonable as well. Worth ringing first to make sure they have a table free.

Really excellent food in this busy and popular restaurant.Wide choice of dishes particularly enjoyed the sea food linguine! Would certainly visit again.

Great food and service and it allowed dogs! 😄

A very friendly & busy Italian restaurant close to the centre of Pickering. Truly excellent service and food at reasonable prices. Would definitely visit again if in the area. HOWEVER - it's popularity means you.MUST book.

Excellent food, great service and prices, a lovely dinner and excellent they could book us in at such short notice in the summer, highly recommended.

Group of four visited on the Saturday of a bank holiday weekend, all were very happy with our meals and would certainly return when in the area again, I chose the Risotto Frutti di Mar and enjoyed immensely my partner chose the Lazagne.

We always try and go when we're staying in Pickering, but must book as it is a very busy restaurant, food is lovely.

I was in the area visiting a family member who needed assistance with something and I needed dinner as my accommodation was just B&B. I was turned away from Figaros because I was a solo diner. Very disappointed to be treated like this.

The food was excellent and the staff were just as good.

Fantastic Italian restaurant. All 3 courses were delicious. Staff were friendly and attentive. Can't wait for our next visit.

Italian restaurant but rather more Yorkshire influenced! Pleasant enough, my chicken was generous and beautifully cooked. But no other dressing or sauce etc on the plate. Seemed clean and staff pleasant, but rather lacking in atmosphere. My husband ordered a glass of Pinot Grigio. A glass of some other wine was delivered and he was just told "Oh the Pino has run out but this is fairly similar"! No other option offered! It was OK, but we wouldn't rush to return.

Standard Italian fare in North Yorkshire. Busy restaurant. Quite noisy.

Lovely, friendly restaurant. Staff were very helpful and food was delicious. A little gem. Francis is a lovely host.

Went in for evening meal staff very friendly and knowledgeable about gluten free options - left feeling very full😁

The food was delicious, from starters to desert, via drinks. The staff is friendly and overall the restaurant felt cosy, although I was not blown away by the interior. It was fully booked, so they had to turn people away, which is a good review in itself. But...I was dissappointed by the lack of olive oil! I find that unacceptable, especially in an Italian restaurant. All the oil dispenser bottles had rapeseed oil in them, ew! 4 stars solely for the lack of olive oil, otherwise 5 stars food!

We visited on Friday. The staff made us welcome when we arrived. Good choice on the menu. The food we had was excellent. We will be back nxt time we stay in Pickering

Lovely meal, couldn't fault it! Great service and excellent food.

Fantastic Italian restaurant the food is amazing and the staff are brilliant we had a great night.

Excellent food and staff. Very reasonably priced. Well worth a visit

Absolutely loved it. Definitely will be back....lovely food and service

Polo Romano chicken so tough was hard to cut into and ver dry Sea bass was tasty but a tiny piece and only three prawns Wish we had had pizza instead

Amazing food and reasonably priced.

Food was excellent, best food in Pickering! However they asked me if I want my change… yes of course I do. Where I’m from we get given our change Furthermore I was planning on giving them a tip which was my change however because of the cheek of it I never All round great experience apart from that :)

Excellent food helpful staff and accommodating to the late comer

Very pleasant friendly staff. Good traditional Italian food.

Excellent food served by lovely staff.

It's a very interesting place with a pleasant ambience, very nice and welcoming staff and decent prices for the delicious food they offer. I recommend the Carbonara (the best pasta) and also all the desserts are absolutely wonderful.

Great food, tasty food, very nice restaurant!!

Excellent food staff are brilliant no pressure on you ordering or pushing you to leave not constantly asking if everything is OK prices are very reasonable unlike other restaurants in Pickering I recommend figaros to anyone

Lovely restaurant, the staff were attentive and very friendly. Food was delicious. Cabonara was especially good. Also very good value. Definitely worth a visit.

Fun atmosphere in here. There were two groups celebrating during our visit. The food was very tasty. My vegetarian pizza was very good with lots of garlic which I love and my partner said that his carbonara was the best he'd had for years. Staff v attentive.

Very good food and service, great little local Italian!

Fabulous food and good choice from the varied menu very good service from staff very good value

Thoroughly recommend. Excellent food wine and service

Had a great 👍 time they were very friendly and the food was great fresh and tasty 😋

Just Amazing . We drove from Doncaster to here for tea as we couldnt get in last time we was in Pickering. Well worth the drive Recommend

Fabulous food and great service.

Pizzas were amazing, thin base with delicious topping. Seafood risotto was excellent. Service was impeccable, the staff are really effective and polite. Really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere.

A group of 11 of us went to eat last Saturday night. The food was outstanding. Our food all arrived at the same time, it was piping hot and absolutely delicious. The staff were all brilliant, they made sure we all had everything we needed, the service went above and beyond. I would highly recommend going here to anyone I know, visiting the area and we will definitely be booking again. A huge thank you to you all for everything from the Tomlinson’s, Dolmans and Silitos.

Very good food. Worth booking a table well in advance because they're very busy. A bit of a wait for the meal to be served but worth it. A great restaurant to eat at.

Ordered a well done steak with no pink at all and sent it back 3 times. Still pink on the last occasion. They took it off the bill but came home very hungry. The service and other dishes for my friends were good, but alas jam butties for me when we got home

Beautiful little Italian. Excellent service and very tasty food. Highly recommended always return when in the area

Lovely food, great staff. No wonder it is popular. Recommend you book.

This is a very busy place make sure you book. Food very tasty . Ordered a seafood pizza and was pleased to see a good selection of fish on it. Very attentive service A good experience overall. Thanks

Great food, would highly recommend, you will need to book!! Would be nice to have draught lager on tap.

Really really great food, very friendly staff and good service and a great atmosphere.

Went for my birthday while on holiday, we had a very warm welcome and they had even decorated the table for me which was a lovely touch. The food was simply fantastic and delicious you could tell everything was freshly cooked. Service was excellent attentive but not ott. What an amazing little place can't recommend enough, thank you for a great night 😄

I want to go back NOW..... Beautiful,absolutely beautiful food.We ordered the basic Spaghetti Bolognaise because let's be honest,there's soooo many versions we can get in jars these days,we wanted to taste it as it should be.We were NOT disappointed,it was lovely,generous portions,with beautiful garlic bread,ordered separately, finished with loads of Limoncello,perfect. Busy so booking reccomended. 100%Genuine and honest review 👌

The food was the best Italian I have tasted and very filling, it was a bit noisy with a couple of youngsters in there but overall I would highly recommend the place

Great food. Great service. Good value for money. Definitely recommend. Will revisit.

Excellent food and a very friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended but you will need to book in advance!

Lovely food and great service. You definitely need to book before you go. Booked last table available on Friday for Saturday night. When we got there a notice in the window apologised that no tables were available for next 3 weeks as fully booked. Says it all. It was a great meal with good menu and great wine list.

Had a lovely anniversary meal, great staff, great food, we love this place, knocked off a star as could have done with a few more saute potatoes , I feel we are lucky to have this restaurant in town.

Fantastic little restaurant. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

If you are anywhere near you must eat here, everything was perfect,

Lovely food, friendly staff.... what's not to like? 😋

Got a last minute booking. Food was excellent, 10/10, very clean, friendly staff excellent

First time here and was very impressed. The staff were very attentive and the food was delicious. We will definitely go again when in the area.

Cosy, authentic Italian restaurant. Food was delicious and fresh - strongly recommend

As on holiday it was recommended. We had to book couple days in advance. Lovely little restaurant, staff very friendly and attentive. Portions of adequate size more than enough, and food was very tasty. Good quality at a very reasonable price.

Four of us for food and drinks, great food, great service, very reasonably price highly recommended

My wife and I were staying with friends in the Premier Inn some seven minutes drive from Figaros We found the restaurant whilst walking around around Pickering We phoned up and booked a table for four We loved the menu choices We all thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience, the food and service was excellent I would highly recommend this restaurant

Busy little pizza restaurant in pickering. Good service and great food.

Great service and excellent food would highly recommend. Very good date location for candle lit dinner.

Amazing food, very friendly staff!

Had a great weekend away and highly recommend this wonderful little Italian. Friendly staff, great service and lovely food. Definitely go there again.

Great food and friendly efficient service, never had a booking but they made space for the 6 of us .

Great service, really friendly staff and fantastic food :-)

Delicious food, staff very friendly and professional, we love this restaurant 😋

A lovely little traditional Italian restaurant with good quality food cooked well and served promptly. Good value for money as well.

Strongly recommend. Food and service was excellent.

Can't fault it. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening

Beautiful food,.. wonderful service.

Always first class food and staff

Great service in beautiful Pickering, give Figaros a try, you won't be disappointed.

Excellent. We found ourselves in Pickering on 1st December, cheeky night away after the Castle Howard Christmas experience. Most places were closed but this gem was open. Locals in attendance - tick. Menu - tick with a good choice of dishes. Beautifully cooked, flavour combinations beautiful. All four of us chose different dishes and all were delighted with what arrived and how it was presented. But most importantly how it tasted, none of us had negative comments. The staff were friendly and attentive and the bill wasn't stupid, despite the wine and post-meal negronis. If you didnt know already, this is definitely worth a visit.

Excellent service and good choice of food. Highly recommended.

Excellent restaurant, cracking food and decent value for money, 2nd visit here in last 2 weeks and looking forward to returning back soon

We ate one very wet evening and had a brilliant meal. A good choice for most people.

Quick service with smiles all around. Fantastic food with lots of flavour, will definitely go again!

Small restaurant that on time of going opens 5pm to 8:30pm. Called in adhoc when visiting Pickering. Pleasant staff sorted us out with no prior booking and service was great. Have to say Best Pizza's I've had for a while, and if you like mushrooms, you've got to try the garlic ones 🍄 Reasonably priced for a restaurant too and in nice location.

Great meal with friendly and attentive service.

Amazing food, celebrated my boys 11th Birthday, they put sprinkles on the table as a surprise. Nice extra touch. Food is beautiful!!!

Lovely food and great service for a large group

My wife and i ate at Figaro's on Saturday night after my daughter recommended it , we are foodies who like quality , we weren't disappointed , from being greeted at the door to leaving the whole dinning experience was excellent, our super waitress Vicky even gave us a lift back to our lodgings, we will most definitely return next time we are in Pickering, thanks to all at Figaro's. Glenn Armitage .

Lovely little restaurant, with gorgeous vegan options. Lovely atmosphere, staff very friendly and helpful

Booked a table for 2 for 7.30. It was busy when we arrived but was lead straight to our table. The staff was very welcoming and the food was excellent. Highly recommend 10/10

Mediocre. The food wasn’t bad but I’ve had better, more authentic Italian food elsewhere.

My wife and I enjoyed an excellent meal. The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. A top class Italian. Book in advance if you can.

Fabulous meal, great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. We will definately return

Amazing food lovely helpful friendly staff

Worth booking ahead if you are in the Helmsley area for this small, family owned Italian. Very good food well presented.

Warm welcome, lovely pizzas, great service, reasonable prices. Try to book though as it gets busy, they managed to squeeze us in. If we are ever back in Pickering we would return in a heartbeat! We were weary from our day trip and Figaros perked us all right up, what a super place.

Amazing food in a nice cosy restaurant.

Excellent food & friendly service.

Very good food and excellent service

On a holiday to Pickering we stumbled across this little gem of a restaurant. We booked a table for 5pm and on arriving we were greeted by a friendly gentleman who showed us to our seats and on sitting a bottle of water was placed on the table. Choosing the delicious food was difficult as it all sounded beautiful. We don't usually have starters when we eat out but this time we both did For our first visit there I had the Salmon Carpaccio and my husband had the garlic mushrooms. Oh my goodness. It was perfection on a plate! So fresh, tasty and the smells of the food just divine. For our mains I had Pasta Arriabetta with chicken and my husband had the Risotto with smoked haddock and king prawns. The portions were a great size and the food was perfect. It was so good we booked in again for the last night of our holidays and both had something different. My starter was the Garlic bread Mariana and the hubby had garlic mushrooms again as he was raving all week about how gorgeous they were. Our mains were out of this world. I had the chicken d witch spaghetti and a the tomato sauce my husband had a steak in a red wine, cream and mushrooms sauce. He said if was the best steak he hc ever had. Cooked to perfection. Amazing flavours and excellent service. Just two beautiful meals out!! We would definitely be back and highly Recommended!!

A lovely Italian that serves very good food with some quirks. I.e. chips with lasagne Grazie mille

Superb food, excellent service.
