Was in town for a short visit and went to Hugo's for the Pasta Mama - always a delicious choice! I was on a tight schedule and the staff was very accommodating, getting me out on time with take-out box and iced tea in hand! I miss going there and cannot wait to move back into the area! Highly recommend this location, especially if you are vegan.

The avocado toast was awful. One of us thought it was inedible and the other thought it was barely tolerable. Buttermilk pancakes were pretty good and the real maple syrup was appreciated. The chipotle scramble was excellent. Service was very friendly and attentive. A mixed bag overall.

Thanks for letting us know Rob! We will pass this along to the kitchen team for future reference regarding the avocado toast. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the other items and that our server took good care of you!

Hugo’s is steady and has consistent food quality and friendly servers. A good place for people who like to eat healthy and mixed (meat/non-meat) groups.

First time at Hugo’s. We will be back. Great menu for everyone’s Dietary needs. Very nice waiter. Only negative is the food was not hot. 2 of our 4 people had to send back the food to be reheated. When it came back it was hot. I thought the Papa pasta should have been made with spaghetti not Udon noodles. It was too doughy. The flavor was good.

Thank you so much for the feedback Maxine! We hope to see you again soon!

Marco C. is the BEST! My mom and I loved our meals and the conversation we had with Marco. Hugo's has been my favorite local restaurant for over 25 years, and they cater to special dietary restrictions without compromising taste or safety.
