When you go here, you have to get the filet mignon, along with their house, steak sauce and they're creamy mashed potatoes. Yes the steak is good without the sauce, but the sauce adds so much flavor to the steak and the potatoes. It's so good. I strongly recommend. read more

The food was awesome. We had a Cuban sandwich, their privately sourced burger and a meat omelet. All were fabulous. Also had leftovers for another meal. Seth was the BEST server. Plus the building was beautiful. They have great cocktails and reasonably priced wine list. This is a winner all the way round read more

I've been wanting to try this restaurant for awhile , and a friend recommended grabbing dinner there this week. Ordered an old fashioned with Evan Williams BIB. It was made perfectly props to the bartender. Started with the bread service bread was warm and the butter was a tomato butter with balsamic glaze unique take but I really enjoyed it. For entree I went with the duck and seasonal risotto which was mushroom. Duck was flavorful if probably get a sauce next time. The risotto was cooked perfectly and tasted great as well. My friend ordered the surf and turf special the steak was tender and spinach was good. For dessert ordered their chocolate cake to go. It was a nice finishing touch to the meal. I'd return for a special occasion or try their brunch. Service was good. read more

We decided to eat at Figaro when we saw that shrimp and grits were the special. Between us, we had the shrimp and grits, Figaro salad, and two cups of she crab soup. All of the food was EXCELLENT, service was great, atmosphere was lovely. I'm eager to visit again when I'm not traveling so I can enjoy a glass of wine with my meal. read more

What a gem we just randomly found! We loved everything about the classic charm of this restaurant. The waiter Seth was fantastic! We ordered a butcher board and he told us about everything on it.

Awesome experience! Only gripe would be wine was served warm, I prefer my wine around 55-60F

Located in a beautifully restored bank building from the 1850's. This nice restaurant has a great atmosphere and a friendly staff. My friend and I chose the Southern Breakfast Brunch. It came with two eggs any style, bacon or sausage, toast, grits or hashbrowns with a side of fruit. The food is served hot, in generous portions and is delicious. This restaurant is located in the historic district of Newberry. An excellent option for a pre or post meal after enjoying the entertainment at the Opera House. read more

We went to Newberry to visit an orchid greenhouse, and afterwards decided to explore downtown lunch opportunities. After checking out several casual places, we settled on Figaro the Dining Room. We were told they had excellent crab cakes. While we didn't find the crabcakes, but we enjoyed two of their salads and shared an order of sweet potato fries. One of the salads featured charred lettuce, and the other was a mixed green salad with strawberries and a few blueberries. Salad dressing is made in house. It was a bit thick, but very tasty. Our server was pleasant and seemed to enjoy her job. We enjoyed our lunch, and may return for dinner. read more

Seth welcomed us to the restaurant. The restaurant is actually a renovated bank, It is absolutely beautiful. The wallpaper, the floor, the tables, Everything was beautiful . I could not get over the woodwork and the bar on the side was fantastic. Definitely a five star rating. Totally unexpected treasure, the elk was succulent and rich, and the sauce on it was phenomenal. Asparagus was grilled. I don't know what seasoning it was but it was the best asparagus I ever had in my life. The potatoes were a perfect match for the elk they were mild and creamy and wonderful. We also had the duck with the blueberry sauce. It was cooked to perfection. The blueberry sauce was the perfect complement to the savory. The Brussels were phenomenal. If I'd had a plate of them to eat all alone, I would've been quite happy. We had a banana pie that did not taste like banana the complement of the flavors actually taste more like butterscotch, but it was fantastic as well with a lovely graham cracker crust. The St. George and the McKenna bourbon was a lovely surprise and tasted fantastic. Jenny was the bartender and she actually gave us some of the history behind the building and some of the furnishings told us about the table that I have in the pictures belong to princess Diana, and showed me in the book where the history of it was . I was surprised how incredible this restaurant was. It was a spur of the moment reservation not by recommendation, but I would definitely travel back from Charlotte just to go there. read more

Always had good food there. Good salads, crab cake, steaks. The chicken & waffles was also yummy.

Excellent food. Great service. Lovely decor. They were not very crowded on a rainy Tuesday night. I had the duck -- it was well seasoned and perfectly cooked. read more

I had the Bone-in ribeye. Definitely NOT worth the money, tough, chewy, over salted but cooked properly. Service was good as was the a Ambiance. My wife had the scallops, which she loved. Overall I'd give it a 2.5 or 3. Way too pricey for me read more

Ok! Now I rarely HAVE to write a review but sometimes, just sometimes, you are compelled! By chance (maybe fate) we happened upon this bucolic little town in South Carolina called Newberry. As a Yelper I looked up a nice restaurant to eat at and low and behold, the 4 1/2 star Figaro pops up. Our fabulous day just got more fabulous! To say Figaro is quaint, sublime, even surreal doesn't do it justice. A converted 19th century bank, ridiculous visual atmosphere, 5 1/2 star food, 6 star service (Thank You Caleb!! You Rock), and wonderful friends made this restaurant experience a night to remember! The food, you ask??? Grilled salad? To die for... House salad? To die for... Pork Chop... you get the picture! Quail was also top shelf and I may have shed a tear after diving into the pound cake! Just a big shout out and thank you to the chef, but mostly to Caleb who made a golden experience platinum! Here Here!!! Looking forward to going out of my way to return... read more

I had never been to Newberry, so while traveling by, we decided to stop through to see the historic downtown. We happened upon a parking spot outside of Figaro and stopped. Boy am I glad we did. Mom and I shared a cup of she crab soup and it set up the meal perfectly. She got the burger with french fries and I got the club sandwich with sweet potato fries. To die for. We took half of each sandwich home there was so much food. The atmosphere adorable and the staff was delightful. All of the food we saw looked incredible...a lady next to us had the shrimp & grits and I was almost sad I didn't get that...until my club sandwich came! Although listed as $$$, I found the amount of food to make it quite reasonable. I would recommend to anyone in the area as a must stop! read more

First time dining in Newberry. Suggested by a local. Was a great suggestion. Came during Brunch which is served all day. Staff was excellent. I had the Cuban and side of grits. Couldn't ask for better flavors. Both were great. Others in my party had the salmon over the asparagus with a side salad. The salmon had excellent flavor and was perfectly seasoned. Kudos to the chef. Will have to return for a dinner plate in the future. The Beignets were a perfect ending to a great lunch. read more

February 27 was our second visit to Figaro before attending Celtic Angels at the Newberry Opera House. Food, service and ambiance were again excellent. After the Chefs Board appetizer, I enjoyed Duck Breast and my wife ordered the Pheasant. Figaro is worth the drive from Greenville if you're going to the Opera House. read more

Had tickets to the Newberry Opera House and decided to eat local before. Happened to see this restaurant after we parked and wasn't sure we could be seated since it appeared to be an upscale place and we didn't have reservations. The gentleman at the front was very nice and accommodating and seated us without a fuss. The waiter was very engaging and explained the menu and specials. After deciding that the duck could not be prepared in the time we had before the opera I decided on the pasta special and what a great choice it was. My husband went with the salad and a shrimp dish. Everything was delicious and speedy without appearing rushed. We will definitely be goin back and this time we'll give ourselves enough time to get to know the place and menu better. A little pricey but great for date night or a special occasion. Check it out. read more

Best pork chop I've ever had. Great service. Perfect for dates or small business meetings.

Absolutely the best She Crab Soup ever!!! Very rich with large chunks of crab. I asked for grilled cheese on sourdough bread and it too was wonderful. Several varieties of cheese and perfectly toasted. My husband had ribeye sandwich and he said it was one of the best he's ever had. It was tender and perfectly seasoned. Wait staff very attentive and knowledgeable. We will return! read more

I was on a business trip and came here for lunch the first day. The host was amazingly friendly and welcoming. Menu size is perfect with good options. I had the daily special of grilled salmon with grits and asparagus. We tried the She Crab Soup which was very similar to crab bisque but with much more cream. The choice of music was absolutely stunning. I came again here for breakfast, they have internet and I was able to work too! I had the vegetable omelet with grits and biscuits. Everything was cooked to perfection, clean and served hot as it should ! The coffee was great too. On both visits the servers were friendly and super attentive. I highly recommend this place and I probably will go back one more time before I head back home ! read more

Located in Downtown Newberry, Figaro the Dining Room was originally the historic Bank of Newberry and later home to many different banks until the 2000s. After being renovated to a restaurant, Figaro kept much of its historical design and antique furnishings for an intimate fine dining experience. My favorite feature was the vault being used as a wine cellar! This charming restaurant is an excellent place to celebrate special occasions with its gourmet menu and very personable staff. read more

We dined here before attending a concert at the Newberry Opera House. One of the specials was halibut with pineapple salsa and yellow rice. This dish hit it out of the park! We both enjoyed it immensely! The fish was perfectly cooked. We paired this with a charred artisan greens salad with the chef recommended creamy maple dressing. It was a great choice! Every bite was delicious! We finished our meal with lemon pound cake with vanilla bean ice cream and blueberry sauce and a slice of cheesecake with strawberry purée. Once again, both were delicious! The waitstaff was attentive, knowledgeable, and very accommodating. We were not rushed and fully got to appreciate the food and the experience. The dining experience set the bar for a most enjoyable evening. We are looking forward to dining here in the future. read more
