They offer a wide selection of hummus and spreads -- my favorites are the Carrot & Short Rib (served with pita) and the Whipped Feta with sourdough. The calamari is a MUST try, and their sushi selection is just as impressive. There truly is something for everyone. The ambiance is beautiful and beachy -- it honestly feels like you're stepping into a vacation destination. The music ties everything together perfectly and adds to the overall vibe. The service is excellent, with a team that is attentive, knowledgeable, and great at making recommendations based on your preferences. The drink menu features picture-worthy cocktails that are just as delicious as they look -- thoughtfully crafted and perfect for a night out. Located in Rosemont, near O'hare Airport it's a perfect spot for a night out, whether you're heading to a show, visiting the area, or just looking for a fun, elevated dining experience. Highly recommend! They also offer catering and events, perfect for bridal & baby showers, corporate events, or family gatherings.

After giving it a few more chances, I realized I was wrong -- so I took it down and I fully retract those statements. Today, I can confidently say this is one of the better restaurants in the Rosemont entertainment area. It's a great spot for date night or a night out with friends. Last night, my wife and I stopped in after a movie and were pleasantly surprised. Even without a reservation, we were greeted quickly by the hostesses and seated without issue. Our waitress delivered amazing service from start to finish. The drinks were excellent -- I had a Dirty Martini with blue cheese olives and Grey Goose vodka. Knocked it out of the park. We ordered the Kiss on Fire Maki Roll with seared salmon, tuna, and yellowtail -- fresh and delicious. The Spanish Octopus with corn purée, cherry peppers, sausage, and chimichurri was a standout -- a pleasant surprise and perfectly prepared. On a whim, I asked our waitress what appetizer she would recommend for us to share. She confidently suggested the Salmon Tartare. I was feeling adventurous and trusted her instinct -- and I'm glad I did. It ended up being my favorite dish of the night. The funny part? Afterward, she admitted she had never actually tried it herself -- she had just heard great feedback from other guests. After seeing how much I enjoyed it, she said she might finally give it a shot. I liked that. Overall, it was a very good experience, and I left happy -- and that's what I'm looking for when I go out. Good service. Good food. Served with a smile. Highly recommend.

While it is technically a chain, it never felt like one. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with beautiful natural light that made the space feel elevated yet comfortable. Our waiter, Romi, who is French, was incredibly attentive and genuinely sweet--service throughout the evening was excellent and added to the overall experience. The NY strip steak was outstanding, with a perfect crust and cooked exactly right. The Caesar salad was another standout--simple, classic, and very well executed. The crab claws were fresh and delicious, though they do come at a premium price. The calamari was also excellent and generously portioned; it could easily be shared among four people. The bread rolls were the one miss for us. They arrived cold, and the butter lacked richness, tasting more like margarine--we wouldn't order these again. The potatoes au gratin, while tasty, weren't really au gratin in the traditional sense and felt more like a deconstructed baked potato. On the other hand, the asparagus was perfectly cooked and very enjoyable. For dessert, we were treated to a complimentary baked Alaska. While it's not personally my favorite dessert, the tableside fire presentation is fun--if you enjoy a little theatrical flair, it's worth trying at least once. Overall, Truluck's delivered a refined dining experience that stood out in an area dominated by chains, with excellent service, strong entrees, and a welcoming ambiance that made the evening feel special.

Service was excellent and Shelly took great care of us - attentive, kind, and thoughtful. We started off with the grilled octopus and the pork belly bruschetta which are two of their top appetizers in my opinion. We loved the grilled octopus so much, we ordered it twice. We ordered the grilled pork chop and the filet which were cooked beautifully. The presentation was beautiful which matched the flavor of both. Lots to choose from on the dessert but we settled for the banana sticky pudding which was decent. Nice cocktail and wine list options.

I discovered…read morethis place when I googled places with the live music for my daughter's big birthday and we decided to stop by for tasting dinner. Born in Ukraine, I can confirm the authenticity of the cuisine. We tried several appetizers and main dishes and every single dish was A+! Fish soup had a wonderful flavor, black cheese Varenyky proved the chef's skill to make an excellent house made pasta , traditional Ukrainian Banosh (a Ukrainian version of Polenta on cream served with feta and pork fried lard) was mouthwatering, Golubci (Stuffed Cabbage) that we ordered as appetizer melted in the mouth and had an absolutely perfect proportion of the meat and rice complimented by a masterfully created sauce. Our main dishes did not disappoint either. My husband's octopus was tender and well seasoned, Kyiv chicken was lightly breaded and was very tasty, beautifully plated duck leg confit was at the level of the best French restaurants , and the roasted rabbit leg in the mushroom sauce , so rarely seen on the other menus, was to die for. We were so full after the dinner that we ordered our desserts to go to enjoy at home. This gem with masterfully crafted cocktails, the unique ambiance and unparalleled service is truly the greatest representation of the exquisite Ukrainian cuisine. The adequate prices and personal attention to each customer makes this restaurant a Must Go! I highly recommend!

When I first walked in I thought it was a very small restaurant, but it's actually way bigger than it looks and they walked us thru a few different rooms before getting to our table in the back private room. We had the room to ourselves for the first 30 min of our meal, which was lovely. The service was beyond incredible. Fernando was our server who went above and beyond the entire meal. And Jason (i believe the manager) stopped by to chat and shared fun tidbits about the concert...as well as gave us detailed directions of how to find the venue within the casino. The food did not disappoint either. We started off with some oysters and the chilled vinegar sauce served with it was amazing. I got shrimp cocktail as my main meal, which may have been the best shrimp cocktail I've had in awhile. I often eat shrimp cocktail from Costco at home as a good protein snack, but it's going to be tough to eat their shrimp after a taste of Hugo's. My husband was very happy with his steak, but was nice enough to share some bites with me and I can see why he was thrilled. Seasoned and cooked to perfection. They said dessert was on the house in honor of my husband's bday. He's a huge carrot cake fan and they brought out a slice of carrot cake that could feed 15 people. We had a bit and they even stored the leftovers for us until after the concert so we could take it home to our cake loving children. Both my husband and I agreed this was one of the better meals we've had in a long time and wondered why we've stayed away from Hugo's for so long!

For a good 40 minutes in the bar, it was an absolute sausage fest. The only other females were those working, so it was a little uncomfortable. This is a manly place in general. A loud obnoxious table of meatheads was behind us at dinner but the steak was truly the best I've ever had so one must endure. I had the filet with peppercorn and our shared sides and apps sampled were crab cakes, mashed potatoes, double baked potatoes, and brussel sprouts. All stellar. We all split the famous macadamia nut turtle pie which easily served 8 people. Amazing meal but would be nice to throw a little estrogen in with the testosterone overload. Service was unparalleled as well. Thank you for a memorable evening.
