Pasta Victor

The Pasta Victor was absolutely incredible. I still dream about that delicious food and can't wait to return. The service is so friendly and it's such a lovely place.

Hugo's in West Hollywood has been around for a very long time. And one thing is consistent with this restaurant; really good food with quality ingredients. I've not been here since before the pandemic, and Hugo's is still providing great meals to large crowds. I'm here this morning with nine other friends on a Saturday late morning. The place is busy, but they were able to accommodate us in under five minutes. Talk about great timing. We were promptly seated and offered menus and water. Myself, along with a friend, each ordered the Protein Scramble. See picture of menu for descriptions. The portions were large and arrived very hot. Perfect. We both enjoyed our breakfast. The breakfast potatoes were crispy and delicious. I had toast with my scramble and my friend paid $3 extra for a single Pumpkin Pancake. Another friend next to me had the Scrambled Egg Sandwich with fries. He said it was okay and didn't really elaborate why it was just "okay." It looked good, but missing some type of protein; perhaps bacon. Another friend had the Pasta Papa. A large portion of food and he said it tasted great and fresh. It was so much food that he took the remainder to go. Other meals at the table were a hamburger, two breakfast burritos, and a Create-Your-Own-Scramble. I heard no complaints from anyone regarding their meals. The service was very good considering we were a party of ten. Katia was very friendly, personable, and attentive. It was great she could process separate checks among us. Hugo's is consistent and always a great experience. There is a small outdoor patio and a large indoor dining room. There is street parking or in the parking garage across the street.

Happy Hour
Erin H.

We really enjoyed ourselves here! Came around 12 pm on a Saturday and it was pretty full! We got the last table on the patio (which is dog friendly btw) and I think the inside had a bit of a wait. Our server Matt was super nice and prompt. The menu is super friendly for vegans, vegetarians, and gluten intolerant folks. Like so many options. I got a vegan Reuben with their homemade gluten free rye bread and house made vegan salami. It was really good!! but it was $22...my partner's vegan breakfast sandwich was good but he said it was def not the best he has had and it was pricier than most. I think that just comes with the territory of eating in WeHo. So that's where the one star is lost. Otherwise it's a nice place to hang out, think loud pop music vibes. The happy hour looks super good!!

Chocolate Protein Smoothie
Karen J.

Hmmm, I have mixed feelings about this place--maybe because I ordered takeout instead of dining in. I got a sandwich on sourdough and wasn't a huge fan; it was pretty bland and lacked flavor. I also tried a protein smoothie, which was just okay but tasted a bit watered down. Overall, nothing really stood out to me, and I'm not sure I'd come back or recommend it.

Graving some gluten free pancakes. Unfortunately pretty dense here. They have many great items. This isn't one of them. The organic syrup is good just need something else to put it on. Breakfast burrito was a hit. We also went back for dinner last week and had chicken strips and the Cuban sandwich. Fries are delicious but if you're not vegan bring your own ranch. The one they serve tastes like pure mayonnaise. **** staff is fabulous, friendly and knowledgeable

Nachos and Strawberry Cucumber Cooler
Briseida N.

I love Hugo's! I came alone this time because I was working nearby and their happy hour is literally the best!!!! They have happy hour everyday from 4pm-7pm! I usually get the chicken strips with fries but today I got the nachos with chicken and I enjoyed them sooo much! I also got the Strawberry Cucumber Cooler and I loved it! I'm usually a tequila girl but my server Jordan G recommended this drink! Jordan provided amazing customer service! I love the ambience at this location, I love the decorations! Always look forward to coming back!

Chocolate chip pancakes
Leti M.

My first time at Hugo's in valley village The staff that we got was super attentive and helpful when it came to us asking for different things or helping us make some food choices. We had a group of 12 and was sat in the patio. Food Order: My horchata latte was so refreshing love it The chocolate chip pancakes were my favorite so fluffy and with just the right amount of sweetness! The chilaquiles were ok, for me not too much flavor I had to add a good amount of hot sauce to add a little taste. Bathrooms were pretty clean. Patio and indoor seating , parking lot available and street parking is available too. Our big group couldn't do separate checks so one person had to pay the full bill. If you are Vegan and or Gluten Free this place definitely has amazing options for you.

Pouring rain outside, lots of places to wait for your table, though.

After the month we have had, we are all experiencing some PTSD in Los Angeles. Having stayed inside for the past couple of weekends, shell-shocked, we had some social obligations that forced us back out into society. Where did we want to go to get that feel-good-everything-is-going-to-be-OK vibe? Hugo's. I don't know why anyone rates this less than 5 stars, honestly. I love everything about it: location (on a busy corner in Hollywood), longevity (yeah, it's OG vintage 1980), the bright, cozy, warm, fresh interior, the incredible menu (especially for a vegetarian like me), and the quality and uniqueness of every dish. I think my photos will speak for themselves. The service was top notch and friendly, the music atmosphere was somehow upbeat and calming at the same time, everything was spotless and it was the kind of place where you can let yourself breathe and relax. Believe me, we all need that. We will be back often. Oh, and, it is super family friendly. Bring the kiddoes.

Vegan nachos
Arlene N.

Love this restaurant! The 80s vibes and the good vegan food. They have so many vegan options. Pretty much everything here can be made vegan. That's so rare to find nowadays. This place is definitely a gem. The service was great as well.

Way too crispy  overcooked "sticky bun"

They generally have good food and service, but they are getting one star here for the totally over-crisped sticky bun. Nothing stiucky or bun about it. It was brown char, like a overcooked cookie. I don't mind cripsy on the outside, but this is crispy all the way through.... I drove to get this thinking it would be a great Sunday breakfast iten and when i got home I was so saddened. And they talked me into two, so 14 dollars for this inedible thing. It's been a while since I ate there so maybe a new staff or cook is bringing what was a quality place down?

French Onion Soup

How have I been sleeping on this place for so long? 1. Any time there's parking, they get a bonus star in my book. 2. The menu is massive. There's truly something for everyone. It's very rare to find restaurants that will cater to vegans and vegetarians, but also offer regular options for those without restrictions. There were so many options for everyone in my party. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The waitstaff is very friendly. The food is good. We are already planning on coming back to try more from this extensive menu!

Great spot for breakfast in West Hollywood area. Lots of street parking around. Full bar. The flex hash is delish! Friendly welcoming service. They also have lunch and dinner. 45 years since 1979! An institution for meals in West Hollywood. Great protein pancakes too!

Receipt
Evan A.

Great food and service. Only disappointing thing was the waitress asked if I wanted any ranch or BBQ sauce with my fries, so I said ranch. My food came and there was no ranch, but I didn't care that much and just used some leftover from an appetizer. Come to find out they charged me $1 for ranch that I never got. Never been to a restaurant that charges $1 for ranch. It's not a big deal, it's just a dollar, but it's those little things that make you not want to come back. The restaurant wins in the moment by making an extra dollar, but potentially loses out on hundreds from someone who might've been a loyal customer had they not been nickel and dimed.

Are there any foods that are celiac friendly?

Yes, I believe so! When I visited there seemed to be several items that did not contain gluten or could be made gluten-free upon request. I'm not sure if they can claim a "100%" gluten-free environment but definitely friendly.

Do they serve mimosas?

Yes, on the weekends.

What can I order, ideally breakfast or brunch, that's high in protein and fiber, but lower on carbs and fat?

Great question! Our guests with similar dietary restrictions enjoy our Protein Scramble: organic egg whites scrambled with diced chicken, broccoli, mixed mushrooms, asparagus, onions, garlic and fresh herbs. Get it with a side of mixed greens and… Read more

Does Hugo's offer bottomless mimosas at the Weho location on weekends?

I don't think so, no. Hugo's doesn't really do a weekend brunch, they serve breakfast everyday and most of their breakfast menu is available all day.

And I know that vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting is pretty easy to make, but sometimes I'd rather just buy baked goods than make them for myself, especially when I'm driving past what I thought was a popular (and presumably good) bake shop. I expected a high-quality cupcake. The cupcakes looked cute, but they were as dry as the Sahara. They should have been labeled as white cupcakes as I didn't detect any vanilla in them. I suspect that the "buttercream" was made with milk and margarine and powdered sugar.....so much powdered sugar. It was sickeningly sweet, and it was dry too. And a true bettercream doesn't even use powdered sugar. So not only were the cupcakes terrible, they were not even what they purported to be. This is like calling a cut of meat a filet mignon and serving a hamburger. Von's, Ralphs and Albertson's make better cupcakes than this for a fraction of othe price.

The chocolate chip cookie with rice krispies "Summer Camp Chip" ($4.25) has delicious flavor and if you enjoy soft & chewy with a slight crisp, they hit all textural marks for excellence. This has become our absolute favorite snack to get here and I gots to have it every time I'm in. The chocolate pop tart is solid. We prefer the taste of this to the brownie cookie...we aren't big on that one. I had such high hopes because I love brownies and obvi love cookies, but alas, personal taste preference. The chocolate cake pudding ($4.25) is a rich and decadent treat that can be eaten right out of the wrapper it comes in! I was surprised I loved this chocolate cake soaked in chocolate custard with a few marshmallows and caramel on top. The Peanut Butter El Rollo is a tiny but cute little guy at $5.50. They make their own peanut buttercream for the inside filling and the chocolate is just wonderful. I like their bars One of my favorite things at Cake Monkey is the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cakewich. This mini cakes are just $5.75 and individually wrapped so make for great little gifts to bring to a housewarming or event. Plus it's gluten-free and vegan so all our friends can enjoy it! Cakewiches for the win at Cake Monkey Bakery! I've only tried the Matcha Latte in the drink department here and was satisfied with it. I'd like to try some of their fizzy drinks but they were out of tonic water this morning. Next time! And there will definitely be another time with Cake Monkey Bakery!

It was extremely last minute and I was trying to find anything I could while also getting my sisters cake of choice. I found Cake Monkey Bakery online and they seemed very promising. I called and asked if they were able to do a cake within 2 days and to my surprise they said possibly! They asked me to send an email or to come in with an inspiration picture to see what they could do and they exceeded my expectations! First off, the place was lovely with the neon signs and beautiful pastries displayed. I was greeted very nicely by Esmerelda and Nancy and told them my situation. They told me it's no worries and that they were able do the design of the cake with the exact color in no time! They asked a few questions and showed me similar cakes they have done in the past and they looked great. They said they'll keep me updated if anything happens during the process. Coming back 2 days later was a breeze. They called me the day before to tell me I can pick it the time I requested. Again with a warm welcome, they showed me what the cake looked like and I was more than happy, it looked just like the one my sister wanted. Service, cake and timing 10/10, my sister was even more happy with it. So again, thank you so much Cake Monkey Bakery and especially to Esmerelda and Nancy! I appreciate you guys!
