Holy smokes 50% off pizza EVERY TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, & THURSDAY starting at noon!! Best pizza of your life? And the cheapest pizza of your life? I think so! Wowzers was this place totally unexpectedly delicious. I thought the pizza was all time good. Better than pizza in Italy, NYC, or take your pick. Plus you get a view of the harbour. You can watch the boats go in and out. And you are right next to Taronga Zoo. We seriously thought about taking the ferry back here the next night because we thought the pizza was that good. Seriously, come here and get a pizza. Thank me later. read more

Unexpected excellence! I travel a lot for work and often find restaurants with amazing views (waterfront or otherwise) can lose their way. Hugo's delivered EVERYTHING with the highest quality: Outstanding service from an attentive and hardworking staff and ever-present maitre d'. The best barramundi I have ever eaten in Australia! Well done! Even the salad was perfect--every piece was fresh and manicured. And I cannot fail to mention a PERFECT Aperol Spritz...these are a good judge of a bartender's attention to detail and experience. Especially in a high volume bar, to deliver two perfect Spritzes tells me a lot--not too sweet (too much Prosecco) not too bitter (too much Aperol) not too light (too much soda). read more

Stopped here for lunch after the ZOO. Great ambience. Place looks stately, where deals are made and a great locally sourced food is offered. Nice beer selection. Great drinks. Food rocks. Had Squid Ink Linguini for lunch. Just right size. Great ingredients. Found waiters line and patient. It is a good place to eat while waiting for your return to Sydney ferry. read more

Racism / Discrimination-An American of Indian descent and experienced what felt like clear discrimination at Hugo's Manly. Despite waiting in line, multiple parties in front of us and behind us--who openly said they did not have reservations--were seated ahead of us. When I raised this with the manager, he claimed they had reservations, which was not true. After being left waiting for over 20 minutes and offered only water, we felt dismissed and insulted. We left and went to Pavilion Manly instead, where the service, food, and views were excellent and we were treated with respect. Very disappointing experience for a venue of this reputation. read more

Our friends, Sarah and Maurice suggested us coming here to have dinner. They told us they come here for special occasions. In this case, the special occasion turns out to be my birthday! They told us the history of Hugo's. It has been in the area for 10 years. The owner does special guest spots on the local television and in media. Hugo's attract a huge following. People who want to be seen come here. Girls and guys come here all decked out and they all look beautiful. The menu looked a bit pricey. Our friends usually order pizzas for themselves and their kids. Joseph told me to order the barramundi. So I did. It came with mashed sweet potatoes which tasted smooth (like butter), garnishments, and a decent size of barramundi. It tasted delicious. Joseph ordered the calamari. It tasted amazing. As the evening wore on, we saw the line build up to come into Hugo's. Sarah and Maurice told us we came during the perfect time and avoided the line. Jack our server made sure we got our food and drinks. He gets an A+ for service. Our food took about 20 minutes to come. But well worth the wait. When in Sydney, Australia come to Hugo's. Located near the shoreline, it makes for an ideal place to celebrate or to relax for a bit. Bring a date, friends, or even family. read more

We enjoyed our dinner at Hugo's. We were able to get seated without a reservation, we appreciated the host's flexibility. The service was wonderful, we felt completely taken care of. The food was quite good. We started with one of their pizzas as appetizers, it was delicious. Our table had the ceviche, which was excellent and the pasta, which was good. Overall a great experience. read more

Lively and fun spot right next to the Manly Wharf. It was pretty busy. Lots of people dressed to the 9 but also extremely casual beach attire. The bar/restaurant offers great view, open dining space. No reservations. We had children with us but I wouldn't call it ideal for children. There was nice cozy lounge seating which we didn't have to wait long for. I had the barramundi and calamari which were both well prepared and delicious. The rest of our party had an assortment of pizza which were all good as well. There is a nice selection of pizzas. I followed my barramundi with a glass of Riesling. Hugo's has a full bar as well. Service was great as well and very patient. The only drawback is parking is limited but most seemed to be commuting by ferry. Highly recommend. read more

Great place to have lunch with good food and a beautiful view of the harbor. For non locals, you can buy an Opal card across from Wharf 4. For $15 this card will give you unlimited rides on the ferry, trains or buses for the day. You can also buy the card for the week or you can always reload the card for more usage. Get on the ferry for Manly Wharf from Wharf 4. There's a schedule of departure and pick up times at Whatf 4. They generally leave every 30 minutes. There's also wifi on board the ferry. Once at Manly Wharf, exit the terminal, turn left and you practically stumble into Hugo's. They have a lot of seats by the window and some tables outside with umbrellas. We came to Hugo's on a Wednesday at about 11:30 and the place was 90% filled but we managed to get a window table for two. They provide blankets and sunscreen to customers sitting outside which we thought was such a lovely gesture and really impressed us with their level of care. There were a lot of pizzas on the menu and we saw a lot of people eating pizzas so we asked the waitress if they specialized in pizzas. She said yes they're known for their pizzas and we were in luck because all pizzas were half off as a lunch special that day. We ordered the Prosciutto Pizza and the Salt & Pepper Australian Octopus. Both were excellent. The pizza had a wonderful crispy thin crust with thin slices of delicious prosciutto topped with fresh thin shavings of Parmesan cheese. There were six pieces altogether. The Salt & Pepper Australian Octopus was super tender and flavorful. It was topped with thin slices of red chili pepper which kicked up the spice level if you choose to eat them. We were stuffed but the waitress talked us into looking at the dessert menu. We couldn't resist the Affogato with a side of Tuaca and biscottis with pistachios. Judy doesn't drink so I took care of the Tuaca on my own . It was so delicious we couldn't believe we finished the whole thing. The service was excellent. Very attentive and friendly. We will definitely come back on our next trip. Follow my food adventure on IG @tazebudshawaii Happy Eating !! read more

Hugo's is a cute restaurant in Manly right on the water. The restaurant is open-air and serves pizza and seafood. We made a reservation for 7PM on a Tuesday evening. When we arrived, we were seated immediately in a table with beach and harbor views. Our server was OK - she didn't seem to know a ton about the menu (more on that later) but she was attentive and seemed to always be around our general area. We ordered some drinks, appetizers, and entrees. For the appetizers, we got both types of oysters (regular oysters with sherry/shallot mignonette and a fried one with horseradish and caviar). I don't eat horseradish so I only tried the former, but everyone else seemed to enjoy the fried one. I liked the natural oysters a lot; we were off to a good start. We each ordered a personal pizza. They were all served as thin crust. One pizza is enough to feed one person, and each is in the 20-30$ range. We ordered: -Mushroom - wild mushrooms, taleggio, goat's curd & caramelised onions -Chorizo - La Boqueria chorizo, olives, chilli, smoked mozzarella, red onions & rouille dressing -Fig - fresh figs, crispy pancetta, gorgonzola, tomato & basil -Pork - slow roasted pork belly with sweet & sour onions, radicchio & bocconcini mozzarella I ordered the mushroom pizza, and it was excellent. It was lemony and the mushrooms were fresh. I didn't get a lot of goat cheese flavor, but it was still excellent. The chorizo pizza had a bit of a kick, and I enjoyed the meat itself. The fig pizza was interesting - the grilled tomatoes on top added to it. Didn't get much gorgonzola, though. Lastly, the pork was OK - not my favorite. It was strangely EXTREMELY spicy, and our server didn't know why (I found it odd that she didn't know if it was weird for a particular pizza to be spicy or not). We asked if any of the ingredients themselves were spicy and she just shrugged. There wasn't much mozzarella on this, either. All in all, we enjoyed most of the food and certainly enjoyed the views. The ingredients were fresh and all added to the pizza. We heard that the dessert pizza was really good, but we didn't have any room left for it. Maybe next time! read more

I was referred to come here by a local friend. Being gluten-free, it's not always easy to get a good pizza, but this was delicious. I had a Margherita pizza and it was thin crust, the sauce was slightly sweet and the tomatoes and cheese were fresh and in just the right balance. I paired it with a Woodford Reserve bourbon for a nice dinner, sitting at the bar, tended by a very friendly bartender. read more

Ocean view on outside deck is actually worth the wait for 1/2 hour considering we didn't make any reservations for Sunday dinner. We came right in the middle of rush Sunday dinner around 7.30pm and we found that the place was jam packed full house! Starter: We ordered ham croquette, with truffle mayonnaise, it was nice and delicate. The antipasto platter was amazingly good; Italian meat ball, so packed full of flavour, Calamari was tender and very crispy with light battered, Fig & prosciutto salad is well dressed, and also came with freshly shucked oyster. Main: Queensland Spanner Crab Spaghettini was EVO base and hint of chilli, i found just right amount of oil to coats the pasta, beautiful clean flavour dish. Fig pizza also delicious, but to my liking the pizza base is a little salty, since it served also with beautiful prosciutto, however, to me, sweetness from fresh fig that just on season is right on the money, can't really complaint! Dessert: "Pick Me Up" a little need more liquor kick, amaretto or frangelico is my recommendation, since I barely notice alcohol on this dessert, however the winning dish for tonight is the sticky date pudding, absolute winner and you must try! If only I have space in my greedy tummy, I would like to order more just for my self! Service: Was very attentive, waitress always check on every sequence meal if everything's ok, well done! read more

It's a lovely spot, right on the wharf. And it's got a bustling, buzzy atmosphere. The pizzas we had were OK, but weren't any better than anywhere else, and much less impressive than many of the spots in Haberfield or Lane Cove. Especially for the price. And my god the place is full of trendy posers. It felt like about half of them were here for dinner because it's the place to be seen in Manly. Service was quite good, though, they took good care of us. And the wine list is pretty spesh. A mixed bag all in all, but as value for money, it's not quite there. read more

Fantastic setting & Service! By far the most enjoyable meal in Sydney yet! Tables really comfortable, we got to lounge at our table on the deck from 4.30 til 7.15pm, enjoying Antipasti, jugs of Pimms & beers, followed by mains! Plus we even got to experience sunset, which is a must from this location! Thank you so much, thoroughly enjoyable afternoon!!! read more

Phenomenal food! The first night we came here it was a 2-hour wait on a Saturday night. We opted out. The second time was a Monday night and it was a 30-minute wait. After eating here, I can say without hesitation I would wait 2 hours for this meal!! We started with the fig, Gorgonzola, arugula and prosciutto pizza that had a perfect balance of sweet, salty, savory and fresh flavors. Then for our main course we split a Wagyu sirloin and the summer vegetable risotto, and then finished our meal with a blueberry cheesecake. Everything was exquisite!! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone and especially those with the most discerning tastebuds!! 6-stars!! read more

A follow on from the incredibly successful Hugo's Kings Cross, Hugo's at Manly Wharf is a runaway success too! Having said that, it's a success in a completely different way, but that's just location talking; a bar on the breathtaking Manly Wharf will always be a little slower, a little more relaxed than one in the frantic King's Cross. Although not a particularly frequent visitor (it hurts my poor little student wallet too much), I do like Hugo's at Manly. The pizza is very, very tasty - but also, very (only one very, not two) expensive for what you get. Somewhere to get your parents to take you for sure! They also do not permit BYO - fairly natural for somewhere that profits from being a bar as well as a restaurant, but annoying during the day! A great spot for a sunny Sunday lunch - I'd recommend the prawn and chilli pizza! read more

Stopped for lunch in hugos after wandering around manly for the day. Great spot by the water watching the ferries coming and going.

All in all a very solid choice. read more

Yes, Hugo's is a pizza restaurant. But it's undoubtedly one of the best dining experiences we had in Australia. It's a beautiful restaurant. At night it's dimly lit and the ambiance is fantastic. We ordered the "Hawaiian" pizza and it was unreal. It was so good we didn't have time to take a picture. However we started with the Grilled Yamba King Prawns and I think these might be the best prawns I've ever eaten. It tasked like a mix between lobster and langoustine. Wow. This place is a must if you're ever in Manly! read more

On a beautiful, sunny Sydney day I visited Hugo's for a somewhat late lunch. From the moment I entered to the time I left, I was delighted by excellent, attentive service and incredibly delicious food. Of course, let's not forget the views - absolutely superb! Overall this was an extremely wonderful dining experience, and I would most happily recommend this restaurant, and return there again myself! read more

We decided to try Hugo's for my partner's 30th birthday. The booking process was very rigid and after many calls, emails and more calls to confirm the booking, I was looking forward to a nice night. It was slightly annoying that after adhering to all their rules and procedures, we weren't really greeted or welcomed upon entering or even asked the occasion. Unfortunately we were seated at one of the benches facing the harbour, with the intense strong and hot setting sun right in our eyes. The blind was partially closed but this didn't help. It was actually too hot and bright to even look at each other while we ate. And while this sounds like an exaggeration, the lady next to us also had trouble, holding a menu up in front of her face to shield the sun. Entree was fried calamari which was probably the only thing we enjoyed. The cocktails were also nice but severely overpriced. We shared two pizzas - ham and pineapple, and chorizo for the main. These were nothing special, once again overpriced and way too oily. Also, they were luke-warm which is strange considering what a warm night it was. All up our meal came to $105 which I would have been happy with if the service had been good. The waitresses/waiters all wear different things, some wear uniform or white clothing while others are casually dressed, so you have no idea who works there or not. We weren't asked how our meal was, and when I asked for the bill, the waitress simply turned and walked away to presumably go and get it. She didn't smile, say anything, or even us ask how the food was. Also when collecting menus the staff obviously have trouble with the limited space on the benches as they simply shoved my phone out of the way without even saying anything or being polite about it. overall I think the staff and the establishment exude way too much arrogance for what they deliver. read more

Taking a day trip (ferry ride) from Sydney to Manly is an absolute must! Just as you exit the ferry, to your left , you'll find Hugos. A very clean, stylish restaurant/bar perched right on the water. You can't beat the location, the service is solid (a rarity in Oz), and the food and drinks are good too. I went with a chorizo pizza and enjoyed it. It's not gonna blow you away, but it was very good. A great spot to relax prior to shopping your way through the promenade towards the beach. read more

Fabulous in every regard. Maybe the best in Manly. Our lunch was exceptional. We had a bottle of a great Claire Valley white to start and some fresh baked bread with a dish of olive oil. For our starter we shared king prawns in garlic sauce, big, tasty, perfectly grilled. Then for our main we shared angel hair pasta with yellow fin tuna. It also was perfectly prepared, with generous amounts of lightly-grilled chunks of tuna. The restaurant, on the ocean front at the ferry, had a variety of seating options. It was busy on a Friday afternoon, but they still showed us our choices of tables. We sat side by side with a terrific harbor view and good people watching. Service was top notch (by Australian standards). The decor was clean, contemporary, and upscale without being overdone. It was as pleasant a lunch as could be imanged, read more

I am a fan of Hugos Manly. Nice food, great cocktails, attentive staff and an unbeatable view. I'd say this place is good for a date or perhaps a ladies catch up. Downsides: - You cannot book tables. I did go for a date here and believe the guy got there very early to put his name down. So it is a shame sometimes when booking is essential, I'd have to count this place out. - No vegetarian options other than pizza. Would it kill them to have a vegetarian pasta? - You often have 1 or 3 staff coming up to you at any one time asking how your meal is. I appreciate it but sometimes it is overkill. Recommend: - Lychee martini - Mushroom pizza - Tiramisu Enjoy :-) read more

As usual, no booking but thought we'd take our chances. Managed to get a spot at a large shared table no problem, although the place was heaving on a beautiful autumn day. What a great spot looking out over the harbour, it is surely hard to beat. The pizzas looked great, but we were both thinking of something else (and our waistlines!!) A couple of cocktails, and I selected a steak while she decided on an anti-pasto platter. The maitre d' looks like he must be Pete Evans's brother, he looks so much like him. No idea if he is, but he looked like it! All the wait staff are well dressed and attentive, and we are waited on in good time. Meals were very good, my steak was a winner with fantastic fries, while her platter was a good size, with some peppers in oil that were dynamite. Mama mia they were hot!! But good. Looking forward to another experience there on a Saturday afternoon in the sun and one or two sherbets. read more

Hugos Manly - Chorizo pizza - Pizza Near Me - Manly, NSW

Had dinner with D1's buddy out from Georgia and a bunch of family friends. Hugos nailed it, great food, great service. Pete Evans got way too much heat about "activated almonds" (local topic at the time) - theres no doubt he has a great talent at feeding Sydney. Someone's BF had a go at eating everything on the menu so I know what everything looks like even if I didn't get to eat it. Pizzas both seen and eaten were the fig and Gorgonzola, prosciutto, prawn, margarita and a couple of others. The pizzas are really good, thin crusts and beautifully cooked. Other menu items including a tasting plate for two (which Haystacks ate himself) oysters, calamari, prawns, salmon pasta were all reported as excellent. I would have tried some but I wanted to keep all my fingers, it was like having dinner with Edward Scissorhands' and Nigela Lawson's love child. The most amazing thing about Hugos is that Keeno didn't have the scallops! I reckon she wanted to have them, they sounded fantastic, but she knew that if this place was good I'd review it and my guess is she didn't want to feature in another of my scribbles, Keeno has poise and dignity. It is good - sorry Keeno. read more

After many years of wanting to get to Hugo's Manly, I finally did it! Pete Evans team have been well trained, and deliver a great food experience.. For a Saturday night (with good weather), all restaurants at Manly Wharf were reasonably busy. We arrived just after 6.30pm, and were advised it would be a 45-60 minute wait... We gave our details and went next door for a cheeky German bier while we waited, and low and behold, we received a call after about 40 minutes. I give this a 'BIG THUMBS UP', as the set expectations we met.. We were ushered to our table, and ordered food and drinks. The Prawn Pizza was amazing (highly recommended), as was the Mushroom. I enjoyed a Steak for mains, however i should have gone for the Homemade Gnocchi, as I had food envy of one of our party.. All 4 of us, absolutely loved this place, and in fact my friend has been back since! While it's not cheap as chips, I would love to get back at least once a month! As another person said, it's tough you can't book, however you just need to factor that into your evening (there's always the bar).. Regarding the 'No vegetarian options (other than pizza)' comment, this was not the case on our visit, and may have been as a result of a seasonal menu. One of our party is vegetarian, and there were pasta's and other meals which he was considering. Definitely bookmark Hugo's as a place to eat for your next trip to Manly! read more

The views, the cocktails, the food are amazing! The service is appalling - they will clear your food or wine before you're finished just to turn the table over. Be patient, be prepared to be ignored and then have people watch you like hawks till try can get rid of you. Go in summer, sit out on the deck and enjoy. read more

Hugo's was definitely a great way to end an evening in Manly. The restaurant is on the wharf with open areas so you can watch the sunset. I recommend making a reservation for outside. There is an outside deck with beautiful views. However, the rest of the restaurant has wonderful views as well. There really is no bad seat here. The food is also quite delicious. The side avocado salad is amazing. We also enjoyed the mushroom pizza. I was a bit surprised there wasn't tomato sauce, but maybe that's not traditional here? I would return if I am ever here again! read more

I'm always surprised when I hear this place is awesome, because it couldn't be further from the truth for it's price point. I've only been here multiple times due to birthday invites etc and not by choice. The service I always find is very slack, orders are wrong too many people hover your table and confusing what you drinking (to the extent of pour two different wines into the same glass) The food is average, and in saying that it should be VERY good for the amount you are paying. All in all the view is amazing but that's all this place has going when it comes to eating out. Not worth the money... read more

Favourite restaurant in Sydney The view is sensational, with a happy upbeat vibe. The food is amazing - especially the steak (worth the money) However on Friday and Saturday's, there tends to be a wait so come in early for dinner 5.30-6 or later 8pm for the best time read more
