Food is great whether it's takeout or dine in. I prefer dine in because it feels warm and inviting. Diner adjacent vibes. Special shout out to lovely Samantha. Very nice, attentive and helpful. read more

Came here for happy hour and the deals were great! We got the chicken basket which had the crispiest yet juiciest chicken with fries for only $6 and the nachos were too good for me to even stop and take a photo. You don't have to see em just know they're stacked! Service was wonderful and I'm really glad I was able to sit on the patio with my dog. We love a "dog friendly" restaurant. Will recommend to all my neighbors. read more

My family has been going to Hugo's as long as I can remember and is always fantastic. Love the pasta papa or the chicken club sandwich. I also have a close friend with Celiac disease and it's so nice to be able to eat at Hugo's and feel confident she won't get sick. Not only do they have a ton of options for her, but they clearly take protocol seriously. The back patio is lovely and great if you have a well behaved dog. So happy this place is still around and doing well! read more

I've been to Hugo's a few times. The food is always good. This time, I tried the Flex Hash. Our waiter, Marco, who is AMAZING as a server AND a person, suggested the hash and he was bang on. Thanks to Hugo's for the excellent food and for hiring EXCELLENT employees like Marco! read more

I had heard about Hugo's for a while. So when some friends wanted to meet up there for breakfast, I was more than happy to oblige. We got there right when it opened, around 8 am, but surprisingly, we weren't even the first ones there. Seems like Hugo's has a number of early birds devotees, which was a good sign. The parking lot was much appreciated, considering the area, and we had no problem finding a spot. Our waiter was friendly and attentive throughout. He stopped by several times to refill coffee and water, and just check on us. Good service. Food was pretty good, but a little pricey for what it was. I got the huevos rancheros. It was super filling, and I ended up taking half of it home with me. Some of the other breakfast dishes looked a lot better, so I'd probably order something different next time. There were a lot of rice and beans included on the side, so it's easy to just fill up on those. My husband got the almond energy pancakes and liked them. But he did say it was kind of a lot for a pancake. There are a bunch of different ingredients in there, so they taste pretty unique. Coffee was good. Company was great. Would definitely come back again and try some different dishes for breakfast or lunch. read more

Oh Hugo's. How I did love thee. I thought you'd returned to your former glory when I had breakfast here the other day. Then tonight, the spouse enjoyed his pasta victor. I on the other hand had crappy luck with the power of green salad. The server was great, but the kitchen couldn't get my order right. I sent it back once and when they brought it back, it was "less wrong" so I ate it. I told them about the mistake and they gave us 10% off. You'd think they'd've comped the meal they couldn't get right. And that's why I PROBABLY won't be eating dinner there again. Sigh. read more

Stopped by for breakfast while on a road trip and visiting family. A great number of Gluten Free options for family members with celiac. We chose to sit outside on the patio due to having a dog with us. They brought out a small water dish which was so nice. Friendly service, though slightly slower than I'd like, but probably due to being outside. I had the huevos ranchero with fruit cup as my side. Overall tasty and satisfying. They said over medium on the eggs, but they were over easy. The black beans were a bit hard, so could improve there. Others in my party were satisfied with their items. The cinnamon french toast is good, but very sweet. Overall, a pretty decent place to grab a bite to eat and I'd probably come again if and when I'm in the area. read more

Got a breakfast burrito with the rosemary potatoes they were burnt, dry, and inedible. Waited forever for the waiter to come back and had to ask a different one to find him. When I brought up the problem all he said was ok sorry. $20 for a basic burrito (you can basically make at home) charcoal flavored fried potatoes because that's how black the potatoes were like it's almost insulating to even serve it to anyone. They put two different sauces on your plate and it's so disgusting there's nothing in it that tastes like chipotle. I promise it tastes like tomato paste it's bizarre and baffling. They push this vegan, gluten free, fresh ingredients but the Turkey sausage in my burrito tastes like a frozen Jimmy Dean patty. The only good thing I had was the tropical juice that's it! The waiter never fixed the problem or offered a solution. First and last time coming here yuck! Don't get me started on how they sat us outside in the "enclosed patio" however there's a car wash across the street with a huge line in the morning so all you hear is this LOUD obnoxious vacuum that kills your concentration, conversation, and vibe. I never had a breakfast experience this ghetto lol read more

Good food. I had the Chicken Carciofi. Also the Garlic broccolini on the side. It was good, but needed salt, as they have a no salt policy. The roasted rosemary potatoes were very good. My wife had those and also an order of Broccolini. Our waitress was nice and helpful. Overall, a good experience. read more

I keep coming back to Hugos, because it's a great local spot with lots of great food options for any type of eater/diet. I love the calm vibe, great service and delicious coffee. However I always find the food to be a little on the bland side. Not sure if I am always ordering the wrong dish, or maybe this is a common recurrence. I always come for breakfast. During my most recent visit I ordered the Bruno scramble. It's an egg scramble with veggies and bacon, served with yams and sweet potatoes on the side. The bacon in the scramble was a little salty. The yams and sweet potatoes on the side were a nice change to your typical potato, but again, bland. I also got to try one of their buttermilk pancakes and it was delicious! A little sweet and very fluffy. I try to take advantage of the healthier options when I am there, but truly the pasta mama and pasta papa have my heart. Who doesn't love pasta and for BREAKFAST? Yes please. Hugos has a great covered outdoor patio with fans and a little fountain for some nice ambiance. Very kid friendly and they are able to accommodate larger groups. I suggest arriving early, otherwise on a weekend there might be a wait. Overall great quality food and lots of options, but grab the salt and pepper or hot sauce to jazz things up. read more

I'm from Ventura but this place was suggested to me by a friend I was visiting in LA. In my area, vegan options are scarce (and even if they do exist, they are boring burgers or salads). I was surprised to see so many vegan/vegetarian options here at Hugos! I'm rarely put in a position where I can't decide! I ordered a vegan Rueben and I was shocked! It was huge and had so much flavor! The fries were also great! My only complaint is the server seemed so confused. I was asking for basic condiments and he would give me a look, then it took forever for him to bring it. He seemed overwhelmed and it wasn't really that busy. We all have bad days so I'll just assume that's what was going on. Over all, great food and ambiance. I look forward to coming back when I'm in the area. read more

Food was good. Service was atrocious, at best. Pleasant, but so slow that I literally had to get up and find our waiter to get my check. Then had to get up again to find him to give him my credit card which I'd been trying to give them for a half hour. Then I had to physically find him a third time to check out because he kept wandering off to chat with the other employees. The key thing though is that even though I tipped $10, for literally the worst service I've had in years; they took it upon themselves and added an additional tip to my card the day after I dined there, over and above the tip that I selected at check out. Hope management reads this and makes it right. UPDATE: Reached out to management and No reaponse. UPDATE 2: I had already messaged "Molly" and never got an email reply back from them. read more

Really clean ingredients, nice service and it's been around forever I've been coming to Hugo's for years and nothing changes!

Hugo's Sherman Oaks and Hugo's WeHo are both great places to eat. The Pasta Papa is my favorite. The tea's are excellent, the English Breakfast tea has a maltiness to it that is delicious. Also, both have great parking. read more

This is one of my favorite spots to meet friends in Studio City for many reasons...and none of them include "celebrity sightings!" Okay, yes, there are many here. But this girl doesn't care. Ha! I come here for healthy, organic, and delicious food!!!! COMPLETELY Guilt free, except for the "fries, and maybe their yummy deserts)" Every dish is made with love and thought to keep the "organic & natural" ingredient theme. And yes, VEGAN FRIENDLY! Service is top notch and today the very handsome Brandon was at our table! Yay! But I am digressing. Plenty of seating inside, outside and at the front indoor patio. This is where my dear friend Rich likes to sit and I am totally down for this location as well. *Parking lot is small but free *plenty of free street parking just make sure to read the signs. *Order the FLATBREAD!!!! It is a must! **Moderately priced. Being healthy ain't cheap people:) read more

I have been to Hugo's maybe like 4 years ago and since then I kind of forgot about this lovely restaurant. Yesterday, I had a doctor's appointment across the street and then my son and I got hungry and decided to visit Hugo's again. We walked in during their happy hour and was greeted by their manager Ellis. What a wonderful, keen, smart, friendly , knowledgeable, professional, great human being he is. He greeted us promptly with a warm, nice smile and took us to our seat. Later came our waiter Kevork K and took our order. We ordered CAULIFLOWER PAKORA, GARLIC BREAD BASKET, SMALL GARDEN SALAD, BOWL BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP, SALMAN PICATTA WITH SIDE VEGGIES AND FOR DRINK GOT COKE. Kevork was nice, professional and brought our food out on time. Later, Ellis came by to our table to see if everything was ok and we kind of got caught up in a nice, warm conversation about everything, mainly work and family. Was very pleased with his approach and managerial skills. Great menu choices to choose from with lots of accommodations. Restaurant is pretty, clean and gives you a great vibe and energy. It was not too crowded when we went in, but as we were walking out, the crowd started coming in. Extensive menu and everything tasted FRESH and DELICIOUS!!! We will return in a month. That is when my next doctor's appointment is!:)) read more

As someone who has ordered from this restaurant a million times, I will never go back again. Not only is the staff unaccommodating and unfriendly, the food never seems to be right. The cost of ingredients is consistently rising which makes sense for pricey allergy friendly food but every single time I visit to eat in or receive a postmates order something is either missing or wrong. It's extremely sad to see such a good place lose its spark. read more

We were vacationing in the area and also meeting a California Yelp sweetie pie we all adore. I searched on Yelp, because my family's diet restrictions, a safe place for my family to eat. I called ahead, and they were so kind to answer my questions. I knew I could at least enjoy a salad. Luckily, our friend also was a big fan of Hugo's! I was so tickled after arriving and spending more time reading the menu. Almost everything was gluten-free or could be modified to be. Even the appetizers. No gluten goes into their frier. All I had eaten all day was plain lettuce with some plain chicken, so I was starving. One of everything, please! ;) The girls shared the chicken strip appetizer, which came with French fries and a choice of ranch, honey mustard, or marinara sauce. They loved them! My husband had the spring rolls. It is so healthy and delicious with the sauce. My Yelp friend and I both had very green casserole. They come with a delicious plant based burger, but you can substitute with a beef patty if you like. I passed on the cheese. Our girls then had a hamburger and chicken strips. Hubby had a crispy chicken wrap. The flavors of everything were elevated. There is so much flavor. I need to learn how to do this to enhance my cooking. Everything was so good. My husband would have liked the chicken wrap to come with a sauce or dip. They are my favorite place in California so far. Samantha, our waitress was really sweet and patient. They have a free private parking lot, and you can also park along the main road. Hugo's, pretty please open one up in Arizona! Great company and food. So good and safe we went back the next evening. Nom nom nom! read more

Lots of parking , got seared quickly, menu super healthy , lots of choices , server was very friendly and knowledgeable, we order the pan roasted salmon and a breakfast item , a house made lemonade that was delicious, a glass of the house Chardonnay and the half and a half ice tea lemonade that was refreshing and well made.

Very clean place , great atmosphere, just realized that there is a Hugo's taqueria across the street , looking forward to check that place out soon . Will be back again read more

One of my toxic traits is that I am turned-off by overly popular businesses/spots and try to avoid them. Perhaps it is the anarchist, counter-culture, punk rock side of me. It's stupid, I know. This has bled over to hot spot restaurants with Hugo's in Studio City/Sherman Oaks being one of my many victims. Hugo's has been a Valley staple forever (there is also a West Hollywood location) and with over 1.3k Yelp reviews; I clearly waited long enough and finally tried it for myself... The OG Hugo's location sits at the intersection of Riverside/Coldwater in Studio City/Sherman Oaks border caddy-corner from its sister restaurant, Hugo's Tacos. The eatery has noticeable signage but don't expect anything fancy-schmancy: this is more a neighborhood family-type restaurant with a simple but calming vibe. Two outdoor patio areas are available with one being the tent-Covid leftover structure and the other being an enclosed part of the restaurant, itself. Hugo's boasts plenty of free parking which is much appreciated. My dining partner and I walked into a rather slow restaurant on a Saturday at 5pm (we are early eaters) and were welcomed immediately by the host. Hugo's has several signs enforcing proof of vaccination but we weren't asked to show our cards. We were seated quickly and given water to start. Hugo's popularity is derived from its emphasis on vegan and vegetarian offerings made with fresh, bright ingredients. However, the menu can be overwhelming in the sense that it is a sort of mish-mash of cuisines: you'll find Asian dishes, Italian pastas, seafood, salads, classic home-style meals etc. There is no real theme; but some patrons may find that appealing.  After browsing the menu, my dining partner chose the Very Green Casserole (Broccolini, spinach, asparagus, garlic and herbs in a tomato-basil sauce topped with a veggie patty and melted goat and mozzarella cheeses served with a mixed salad - $18.50) while I went with a Create-Your-Own Salad ($16.50) which  allows you to choose greens, four toppings and a dressing.  I concocted arugula base with sun-dried tomatoes, red onion, red peppers and goat cheese with a  Sherry Vinaigrette dressing. When the food arrived, our eyes soaked up beautifully-presented dishes in very- large portions: larger than we expected! My salad was amply dressed (I like a lot of dressing) and didn't skimp on any ingredients like many competing eateries tend to do with salads. The Sherry Vinaigrette is divine and perfectly complemented my chosen ingredients. My only complaint was that I ordered red onions thinking they will be the standard red onion rings that come on salads; only to find chopped up white onions. What?! My dining partner's Very Green Casserole was superb and perfect for a green veggie/pesto lover topped with ooey-gooey cheese (I took his leftovers home and it was still delicious after the fact). However, the mixed salad side was just mixed greens with a balsamic dressing - I guess I expected a garden mixed salad. Our major qualm was with Hugo's service. Our male server wasn't rude but simply seemed neglectful rarely checking on us and not even acknowledging our stares as he walked by to other tables as we hoped to get service or the eventual check. Again, it wasn't horrible and a large deficit to Hugo's; but it WAS noticeably on the weaker side of the customer service spectrum. Putting my toxic trait aside; I AM glad I finally tried Hugo's and experienced it's casual, neighborhood atmosphere with bright, flavorful food (even with the onion mistake). Service could use a little spruce-up but overall Hugo's is a solid choice for veggie-friendly food if in the area... I just wouldn't necessarily shout it from the roof tops or go out of my way for it. read more

Food looked delicious based on pictures so we decided to give it a try. I ordered a chipotle scramble, but was very disappointed, so flavorless I had to add salt and hot sauce to give it some flavor.

I don't know about vegans but this place is kinda "meh" and "blah" and "I'd rather go some place good" for us herbivore/carnivores. Most importantly, it's $$$ for "meh" food. Parking is fine-they have a lot. They converted part of the lot into a cute patio are. Make sure you literally say "I'd like to sit *outside*", because the have an enclosed patio... which is also "meh". Their mimosas are... not the best. A small bottle of champagne and a small carafe of OJ.... That's it. This place has no pizazz or flare. If you're vegan... I guess it's great. Lots of options for lots of money. read more

Hugo's is all around pretty fabulous, but lemme rave about the vegan Rueben! Wow, is it amazing. Easily enough for two people.

This was our first time back in a while, and the food and service were still great. They're now one of those places that automatically adds a BS "service charge" to the bill. It's only 3% but it's such an annoying practice. It is still a great choice for healthy options in the area. read more
