Our dining experience was absolutely fabulous. Chef Liam pays such keen attention to detail and adds his special flair to each dish to make the flavors intertwine with such synergy, that we thoroughly savored the entire meal. Vito was very knowledgable in assisting us with selecting a delightful wine to pair with our meal, and the wait staff were attentive and gracious in every way. Thank-you to the entire CHE FiGATA team for such a memorable and special evening!
