    I've been going to Hugos for almost 25 years. Never had a bad meal. Best experiences have been when Frank Gomez takes care of our table. He's the best waiter in the city. I've had the pleasure of working with him going to back to his days at Nicks's Fish Market. Ask for Frank and your dinner experience goes from good to GREAT

    We had an early dinner at Hugo’s, and it was so great! The frog legs were delicious, the oysters were incredibly fresh and the spicy tuna roll was great! Our waiter was so friendly, attentive and thoughtful. I will definitely come back next time I visit!

    Delicious drinks and meal with huge portions…enjoyed unique flavor of escargot, although toasted vienna bread was a little hard. Crispy chicken with tasty potato salad was excellent and more than enough for two. Sweet potato and brussels sprouts sides were outstanding and definitely meant for sharing! Great prompt and friendly service. Will definitely return.

    A well prepared cocktail to start the evening was greatly enjoyed. We then wandered through the appetizer menu creating an abundance of items to serve as our dinner. Noah, our waiter, exceeded expectations with his attentiveness to checking back to see how we were receiving each course and if we were pleased. After my 5 weeks in Europe Noah certainly put the service back into the equation of what to expect and appreciate in the USA.

    Server was great but the rest of the experience was mid at best. Fish overcooked and over seasoned. Asparagus charred black and mushy. Ice cream had big ice crystals in it. Someone brought their pet dog into the restaurant (not a service dog) right next to our table. Was rather disappointing and was too expensive to be less than excellent. Wouldn't recommend and will not likely return.

    Very disappointed in the quality and size of portions. Our waitress was terrific but the food was subpar at best. A real bummer for such an expensive restaurant.

    My husband made reservations for his boss and vip clients. It was not good when they ordered the fish because there was none left to order. The table they were seated at wasn’t really that great, as the servers kept brushing near the table. Was expecting a better experience.
