    The bread was mediocre. The steaks were cooked perfectly but overall nothing above the norm from other steakhouses in the area especially for the insane cost compared to other places. The lobster bisque was fantastic with huge chunks of lobster. Crab cake had a ton of crab in it. The inside was very classy and fancy. The service was top notch, but some of them clearly had some character they were trying to keep up. If you're not fully invested or ready for it, then it can get very grading very quickly. Review from July 2025

    Came here with some family who's been here before and mentioned this place being one of their favorite places. For me it was my first time & was immediately impressed once we started walking down the stairs into the restaurant. Upon entering the ladies were given a rose which was a nice touch. The restaurant itself is very nice and romantic setting. The food was phenomenal l. We got the artichoke dip and added king crab which, extremely flavorful dip!! Also the table bread and butter was very good. The he table side salad you basically select everything you want was a hit. Also very much enjoyed the little raspberry sorbet palette cleanser they give before your entree, haven't been to a restaurant that does that but I loved it. I got the petite surf and turf which was perfect for me. Everything was delicious and would definitely go back! Definitely on the pricier side but well worth it

    This pains me to write this review. We have always been and still are Hugo Cellar fans. Not sure what happened, but they just were not on their a game. Just so you know we were probably the fourth guest sat when they opened. So they hadn't been open very long. When we were sad, our server was very friendly. Welcome us and like always they handed me a rose to provide to my wife. Then they sad us. They asked if we wanted something to drink very quickly and while we were looking at the menu, they brought out what they called fresh hot bread. This is probably our 20th time over 30 years having gone to Hugo Cellar. I know when they set it on the table they wanna reinforce that it's fresh that it's hot and it's great bread. Unfortunately this was none of the above. The bread was not hot, it is like a crisp bread that's supposed to have like a cheese type flavoring along with paprika. This was cold, hard crisp bread that was loaded only with paprika. Every other time we have been here we have asked for more bread. This time we each barely finished a piece that we split. The bread was lackluster. It came time to place the order. They started with the traditional table salad. Of course they start with the ladies first and the guy really isn't listening to him. He's telling each thing that's in the bowl. She says no Parmesan cheese and he puts it on anyway and he hands the plate and she goes I didn't want Parmesan cheese. He goes. Oh yes you did. You said you did, we aren't confrontational people so she took it. He didn't push back. I ordered my salad. My wife went and picked off as much as the Parmesan as she could. The salads were fresh. They were tasty. She ordered the filet mignon and it was cooked perfectly. The green beans were outstanding. I ordered the ribeye with cheese on top and it was out of this world. The green beans were also great. All that we can talk about all dinner was having dessert afterwards and they're amazing Kona coffee We finish dinner they come out OK remember, we were the fourth family to be seated that night. He comes to the table. What would you like for dessert? I say we'll both start with Kona coffee and we'll get. Oh I'm sorry. We're all out of Kona coffee. You're out of Kona coffee you just opened. Oh, we ran out yesterday. This is Las Vegas. If you ran out the day before, you could easily go and get it somewhere in that amazing city. So we said OK thank you we did not order dessert and we didn't get Kona coffee. So the basic steaks were great and for the most part, the servers were polite, but did it surpass expectations like it normally does and provide that wow factor not this time. We'll have to think hard more back in Vegas than a couple months for another concert. Do we give Hugo another chance or do we try one of the steakhouses that we hear about but have never tried before. Will let you know when that happens.

    I had a really great dinner at Hugo's Cellar. The food was excellent overall -- the tableside salad was fresh and fun, and the steak was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Service and atmosphere felt classic Vegas in the best way. The only miss of the night was the Old Fashioned. It was honestly one of the worst I've had extremely strong and lacking balanced flavor. It's a shame because without that drink, this would easily have been a 5-star experience. I'd absolutely come back again, just skipping the cocktails next time.

    What a nice and memorable dining experience at Hugo's located inside the 4 Queens at downtown Fremont st! The service was excellent and the table side prep dishes were amazing! The decor reminded you of a "Rat pack" theme that time forgot and the red brick walls gave the restaurant an even more old school but classic look. Cheers!

    Hugo's Cellar inside of the 4 Queens hotel and casino is truly a one of a kind, old school Vegas steakhouse! Born and raised in Vegas I've been to more steakhouses than I can count, and this is truly one of the best that still does it old-school style! The service is unmatched from the moment you walk in you feel like you are the one and only VIP in the room. Every lady is given a beautiful long stem red rose upon arrival then you are sat at your table with a team of servers that are literally top notch! Every single thing from the craft cocktails, table-side salad, outstanding steaks, and sides to the espresso and dessert was unbelievably perfect! If you have not been to Hugo's get there! This place is perfect for a celebration of any kind and top notch for a romantic date!

    This place has been around for decades for a reason! Yes it's kitschy but so cute and fun. The food was amazing! We had sea bass, pasta, the filet, and salmon. All of these were truly outstanding, as was the table side salads and sides. The chocolate covered strawberries were also delicious. Our servers were great and we all had a lovely evening and we will be back for sure! You should go at least once. It isn't cheap but it's worth it!!

    The service is impeccable! Everyone was friendly, helpful, attentive but not overbearing. The ladies start off the night with a and we were quickly served our starters that were part of the entire meal. We were asked what wanted to drink first and had various wait staff who all specific duties and did them well and with pride. I got a filet minion, I think the middle was cooked to perfection, maybe the outer edge was over done but the flavor was good, the mushroom risotto was flavorful and cheesy (could have been hotter for my taste), and that nights carrots and green beans were a nice pairing. The side table salad was fun and had options for toppings that were not on my standard salad list and they were fantastic (looking at you pine nuts!). We didn't have room for the fantastic looking deserts but did partake in the fig, jam, chocolate covered strawberries and creme that came with our meal. Be ready for low lightening and low ceiling -all to be expected. I appreciated the low volume as it leant itself to table conversation without having to yell. Was into the experience and only snapped one photo!

    Hugo's Cellar was recommended by a co-worker so we first walked in after having dinner already and were greeted by the friendly bartender. We were pleased with was a we saw and decided to make a reservation for the next evening, Thursday! On Thursday, we arrived and were immediately seated in a booth that was separated by plexiglass from the booths on each side of us. I don't know if the plexiglass helped or hurt the acoustics because we could hear entire conversations at tables all the way across the room. To start off the service was beyond compare! We always had numerous staff taking care of our table whether it was bringing food, clearing plates, refreshing drinks...it just didn't stop! Every server was very pleasant and attentative. Often restaurants of this caliber offer a menu of only al a carte items from main entree to having to order each of your side dishes but that was not the case at Hugo's Cellar. Your entree comes with table side prepared salad...and not just any salad..., sorbet to cleanse your palate, selection of starch with your entree and fresh vegetables. My husband chose the rack of lamb and I ordered the pork loin without any sauce as I don't like sauces on my food. My husband's rack of lamb was something we have never seen served in a restaurant of this quality before. It was carved table-side and the size could have easily fed 2 or 3 people. He loved his meal. Mine on the other hand was a different story. My pork loin was extremely dry and I really tried to eat it but I guess the mistake was ordering it without the sause. When the server came by she noticed I stopped eating and I told her it was just too dry and asked if it was possible to get a chicken breast with so sauce since the chicken on the menu had sauce or gravy and she happily agreed. Unfortunately, chicken wasn't any more moist and so I left that on my plate as well but I enjoyed everything else which is the reason for my rating. Our meal was finished off with chocolate covered strawberries...a regular offering after every dinner. While my entree was a disappointment, everything else was wonderfule and we plan to return and I will be ordering the rack of lamb!

    Outstanding service and experience. We came across Hugos Cellar by accident, walking off a dinner from Oscars, and booked a table for the next night. Hugos Cellar is nestled on a lower part of the Four Queens Hotel and Casino, getting to the restaurant is via a few stairs down or an elevator. Upon checking in and being walked to your table, each lady in your party gets an amazing long stem rose, which has its own vase on the table. Upon paying the bill, the rose is wrapped in foil to take it home. The food experience at Hugos has a unique set of included items. Firstly a wonderful selection of bread, crackers, butters, salts etc are promptly brought over when you are seated Each meal includes a table side custom salad bar experience, a pallet cleansing gelato and a wonderfully displayed chocolate covered strawberries and heavy cream dessert. Entres also include two sides, making this fantastic experience very affordable We booked the table for our 10th anniversary and on our table was a handwritten signed congratulatory card. I had ordered the rack of lamb, which ive had at many other places... there was so much lamb! I was not expecting a whole rack of 6 bones and a tremendous amount of wonderfully cooked tender lamb. Service was impeccable, everyone works as a team and we could see a few of the servers standing by the walls, attentively looking for empty plates to remove or water glasses emptying to fill... you never had to wait for any server to ask for something, they are constantly reacting to you. My wife ordered the pork loin, but without any sauces and gravy, unfortunately that was pretty dry and our server quickly saw this and offered her another dish of her choice with no fuss. We'll be back here for sure, the food, service, ambience, value and experience was a lot better than we had experienced that week at Oscars, Eiffle tower and Havana.

    Las Vegas done right. Our Anniversary dinner at Hugos was a great place to celebrate ! Service is 5-star ***** I really like all-in pricing of entree. Includes bread/butter plate, a fun Table side hand-made custom salad and chocolate covered strawberries and mini sorbet pallet cleansing "ice cream cones " So cool and classy .. from a Rose for the ladies as you enter to hot towels at the end. Elegant. Quiet dark and beautiful Cool. Old school Las Vegas history here A Must do when in Vegas or for a special event

    HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!!! We came here on April 13 2026 to celebrate my parents 50th wedding anniversary.. we spend about $600 and the food would have been better at Taco Bell... services started off great.. The ambiance was pretty. Got our wine, wonderful salads but then it went down hill from there.. All of us were very disappointed.. Food tasted froze and heated (nothing was fresh), the Au Gratin Potato's were absolutely disgusting and an up charge (tasted days old), Sea bass was dry and not good (and had sour cream on top), the duck, the green beans and risotto was not edible. My mom ordered a cosmopolitan and it tasted watered down, as if it had sat on counter an hour... We didn't even get asked for more wine. We all had full plates when table was cleaned off and nobody asked how our meal was.. My mom made a comment about the food and our waiter acted like he didn't hear her. The next day we called to give management the opportunity to connect with us before writing review and was told they would call back. 2 weeks now and nobody has called us back. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE... $600 for 4 people it should have knocked our socks off.. My parents loved this place and wanted to celebrate here and it was a totally let down. Save your money.

    The salad was amazing. Service was amazing. I've had better steaks but these weren't bad. We were seating in a far back corner that had zero ventilation so my husband got sick and we had to leave, but otherwise, it was a great experience.

    Ask the Community - Hugo's Cellar

    We are hoping to make reservations for our anniversary in August. Our appetites are small your portions are large is there a fee to split an entree if we order an app and soup as well?

    There is not a fee to split appetizers or entrees, but I believe there is no option to share the salad bar. Excellent choice for an anniversary dinner!

    Can we split the tableside salad, or do we each have to order our own?

    Yes you can

    What is the dress code?

    I have seen people in shorts and others in suits. I would say business casual-like, to feel comfortable. But some go all out.

    My wife and I are small eaters. Can we get just the hot rock appetizers our dinner and no other entree?

    Yes, you can. There's no minimum order requirement.

    Dear Michelle R. or Dining Room Manager. My name is Doug del Castillo and I'm coming tomorrow for my wife's birthday celebration. She's fixed on King Crab Legs for her dinner. Could you please tell me if you have them available on 9-13?

    Is Hugo's cellar handicap accessible?

    Yes, they have an elevator to get from the restaurant to the casino

    Good evening. I was just trying to make reservations for a party of 12 for 2/17/22...Hugos Cellar is our all time favorite place to go while in Vegas...we are needing some recommendations on how to secure tables not together but at one time?

    I'm considering bringing my two young daughters for a special family night out. Are there options for children? May I share a plate with one as I'm it a big eater?

    It is more of an adult oriented restaurant. You can share a plate but there is s$29 fee. I am not sure if they have a children's menu. Hope this helps.

    Dress code? Reservations required?

    Where do we park? And is the restaurant wheelchair accessible?

    Does Hugo's offer a player's card discount?

    You can use your points, but it does not offer a discount.

    Is Hugo's still offering the option to bring your own wine and serve it for a corkage fee with COVID?

    Are you open on Christmas?

    We saw that they have a Chateubriand with lobster. Would they serve the chateaubriand without the lobster? Would we still have to pay the full price?

    I'm coming to Vegas alone. Can I get the Hot Rock or do I have to be with someone else to get it?

    I'm almost certain they can accommodate for one. Last time I went I ordered the seafood tower for 2 but they were able to make it for three!

    Do they currently have happy hour specials?

    I can only speak for the dining room and no they do not. They have a very small bar that may have specials but I honestly doubt it.

    Does the bar open before 5pm?

    Hours of operation is 5pm - 10pm

    Are the steaks done over flame or on a griddle?

    Over flame. They also have this amazing appetizer dish that you cook the meat yourself on a extremely hot stone.

    Is there accommodations for babies?

    Personally I wouldn't bring a baby here. I didn't see any high chairs or booster seats or any kids at all actually.

    Would running shoes, golf shirt and jeans meet the dress code?

    Fine but no shorts. It is old school fancy so the staff wear black tie. We were comfortable in jeans and dress shirts

The waitstaff were dressed very casual, jeans and t-shirt casual. Although the food is upscale, everything else about this place seems very casual diner like. We could even see most of the work going on in the small kitchen. Mostly shareable plates... Our table chose the deviled eggs with caviar - these were a hit! Dynamite shrimp, most at the table liked these, they were spicy and the flavor was decent, but I just felt like the sauce made the breading a bit soggy and it wasn't a favorite of mine. Pork Belly - This had a buffalo sauce on it, which I wasn't too excited about at first, but it worked better than I expected. Wish it was just a little crispier but it was tender and I enjoyed it. Oxtail risotto - this one had mixed reviews from the table, I really enjoyed it. The flavor was good. There's only a small amount of meat and it's shredded into the risotto. Overall the consistency was a little weird, very thick and almost sticky/dry, plus the dark color. They had a steak on the menu and the flavor was great, one of the pricier menu items but it was a good share. My wife ordered a burger without the bun. She said the patty was well over-cooked and so it was pretty dry. They don't offer gluten-free buns or bread - bummer. The service was generally prompt, but seemed uncoordinated at times. For example, it seemed our waitress was also handling a very large party outside on the patio, and randomly the hostess would bring us a drink refill (hostess stand was right beside our table). That's good in a way, they are all a team, but she also picked up my plate and silverware after only the first appetizer - mind you they bring everything out as it's ready, so don't expect the whole table to eat together, you are expected to share! When I asked if she could replace my silverware, she grabbed a fork and knife and handed to me, but they weren't rolled in a napkin or anything, just barehanded me some silverware... anyway, I thought that was odd. Overall, the food had some bright spots and perhaps worth a lunch if you are downtown. I probably wouldn't seek it out again, but I'm not mad about the meal we had either.

My husband is definitely more of a foodie and I'm happy to try new things but usually stick to what I know. We ended up doing the Chefs Tasting menu to try a little bit of everything and wow! The staff was kind but our waitress was 10/10 on her own! Super attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, our water glasses were always full and she was incredibly kind. The overall vibe of the place was intimate with the darker lighting, music was on but not blaring and even with the tables a little closer together I felt like you were still able to have privacy. The oysters were amazing! One was chilled and one was cooked. My favorite was the chilled and my husbands favorite was the cooked. I had never had oysters before and am now a huge fan! We added the Foie Gras to our menu and were blown away by how good it was! First time trying it, all the rave about Foie Gras is true! The snapper tostada is another highlight for us! So fresh and delicious and all the flavors went together incredibly well. Overall we really enjoyed our dining experience, trying new things and will definitely be back whenever we come out this way again.

    I have wanted to try this place for years and we finally went - disappointed is probably the best…read moreword to describe our experience. We felt none of the dishes were good - in fact all were just mediocre at best. We ordered the Isaan Sausage, Oxtail Hummus, Grilled Oysters, and the Spanish Octopus. We wanted to order more, but with each disappointing bite after another, we just decided not to order any more. The first three dishes came out all within 5-7 minutes...and then the octopus came out maybe 15 minutes after the last dish. Service was spotty...we were told they would bring fresh plates but we ate a course with no plates, the snack dish came out third, I left the credit card on the table for 10 minutes and no one came. The Issan Sausage snack was salty - initial flavors reminded me of Vietnamese flavors but just didn't work for our palette. The oyster dish was ok but again, very salty. The hummus was bland and the oxtail added no flavor or texture. They tried to add crunch with the chickpeas but they felt like bothersome flossing issues to be dealt with later. The naan was more like an under toasted pita bread and there was no flakiness. The octopus dish was ok but nothing to write home about. If you follow my reviews, I try to always give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt and I rarely give poor reviews. Unfortunately there just weren't too many positives in this dining experience. But as always, maybe the food just didn't suit our taste but will suit yours. We decided very quickly to head over to Palace Station for their pan roast.

    Adeline our server was AWESOME!…read more It can be a bit dim inside so for those who wear glasses, this can pose a bit of a problem hahahaha I was having a hard time reading the menu but Adeline saw me struggling and politely asked if I needed reading glasses since they have some and Thank You, Thank You because I could finally read the menu! Throughout our meal she stayed attentive. I ordered the full GRAND COBB SALAD with chicken, bacon, avocado, tomatoes, bleu cheese, and grated egg. Boy oh boy was it good! Fresh ingredients with the delicious and tangy Roasted Tomato Vinaigrette on the side (my request)! It's enough for 2 meals. The sourdough bread in a basket fulfilled my craving for a carb. Warm and cut into thick slices with butter on the side paired well with the salad.

Seating was quick, water refills infrequent, service checked in often until food dropped. Compatriots had ordered a double smash cheeseburger and a southwest chicken salad. I had gotten the slow roasted beets, and the house green salad. Nothing really wowed in this case. I'd say I like the fries and the slow roasted beets. The cream sauce balanced the beets well with occasional nuts for texture. The house green salad was more lettuce than anything else. The southwest chicken salad, the meat was a bit dry. Still was an easy meal and simple to plan around. Worked well in a pinch.

    Every time I find myself wandering the electric streets of downtown Las Vegas, there's one stop I…read moresimply can't skip -- Eureka! And honestly, why would I want to? The moment you walk in, the vibe just gets you. It's the kind of place that feels effortlessly cool without trying too hard -- exactly what you need as an escape from the casino chaos outside. But let's talk about the real reason to visit: the food. I always find myself gravitating toward a classic burger, and Eureka! does not disappoint. We're talking a proper, stack-it-high, juices-running-down-your-hands situation. Paired with a cold, well-chosen craft beer? Absolute perfection. It's the kind of meal that makes you slow down, settle in, and remember why you fell in love with a great burger-and-beer combo in the first place. A downtown Vegas essential. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Went to Eureka for the first time for Happy Hour the other day…read more We ordered the chicken wings, roasted brussel sprouts and I had an old fashioned cocktail. My husband ordered a grilled chicken sandwich with cheese and carmelized onion. Everything tasted good. The prices are reasonable for Happy Hour. Most everything was under $10 each. It's got a big bar. My only complaint is the were blasting the soccer game through the whole restaurant. It was so loud even the server had to keep repeating our order because even she couldn't hear us. We couldn't have a decent conversation. I get that people like sports, but it's getting to the point you can't go ANYWHERE without being over run by a TV. Just annoying.

    I had been looking forward to visiting this spot for karaoke night, and overall my friends and I…read morehad a genuinely great time -- but there were a few things that kept it from being a perfect experience. Let me start with the positives, because there were plenty. The moment I walked in and saw the open outdoor space, I was immediately charmed. There's something really special about an open-air venue in Las Vegas -- it has a relaxed, laid-back energy that you don't always find on or near the Strip. The atmosphere was fun and lively, and it was clear that people were there to have a good time. The karaoke DJ was absolutely the highlight of the night. He was talented, enthusiastic, and incredibly warm and welcoming -- the kind of host who makes everyone feel like a star whether they can sing or not. I also loved the karaoke app, which notifies you when your turn is coming up. That's such a thoughtful touch and takes so much anxiety out of the experience. Karaoke kicked off at 10pm and the energy in the room was infectious once it got going. The drinks were good -- well-made and enjoyable -- though on the pricier side for what you'd expect at a casual karaoke vegas bar. Not a dealbreaker, but worth knowing going in. Now for the constructive feedback, shared in the spirit of hoping this venue reaches its full potential: The table reservation situation was genuinely confusing and a bit stressful. I had made what I believed to be a table reservation ahead of time, but when we arrived, the host at the door informed us that table reservations aren't actually accepted. I showed her my reservation confirmation, and unfortunately she was dismissive about it rather than empathetic or helpful. For a group arriving excited for the night, that interaction set a frustrating tone. A little kindness and acknowledgment -- even just "I'm so sorry for the confusion, let me help you find a spot" -- would have gone a long way. Because we couldn't be seated at the tables until 10pm, we were left waiting at the bar, which was extremely crowded with other guests in the same situation. Getting a drink was a real challenge with so many people packed in waiting for seating to open up. It felt like a bit of a bottleneck that could easily be improved with clearer communication upfront about the table policy -- or better yet, actually offering reservations. We also weren't able to order food at the Front Yard, which was a surprise. We ended up heading over to the Village Pub to eat, which worked out fine, but it would be so much more convenient to be able to grab a bite without leaving the venue. Despite all of that, my friends and I left smiling. The DJ truly carried the night, and the outdoor space is something Ellis Island should be proud of. With a few operational tweaks -- clearer reservation policies, a friendlier front-of-house experience, and maybe some food options -- the Front Yard could easily be one of the best karaoke spots in Las Vegas. We'd come back and give it another shot! :)
