About this business

Mexican food is often confused with Tex-Mex. Not so at Hugo's. Award-winning Chef Hugo Ortega offers your taste buds a culinary tour of Mexico. From the beaches of Baja California, open your palate with the refreshing limey goodness of his ever-popular red snapper ceviche. Explore the complex and earthy duck in molé poblano sauce or the delicacy of pan sautéed chapulines. Roam the streets of Mexico City with a sampler plate of sopesitos. Wash it all down with flights of the finest tequila.

great ritas – Some of the best upscale Mexican food in the state. They have been very accommodating to us and even let us order pitchers Don Julio ritas. My favorites are the chicken taquitos on the appetizer side and the carnitas.

super delicious lobster taco! – Been there once whatsoever but definitely will come back for a lobster taco and a dessert. I can't eat onion which is difficult when you think about Mexican food but waitress was super helpful and she managed to find sth for me which was possible to make without onions. I strongly recommend lobster taco and duck taco - they are delicious. My friend loved seviche and octopus taco. They have really nice drinks and the dessert menu is wonderful. I had crepes with dulce leche and they were so good... read more

Expensive Tex-Mex without the cheddar – After living in Mexico for almost 35 years, having traveled extensively in the country, with experience eating at restaurants where only locals go, and having good cooking experience, my friends ask for my opinion about some restaurants. After requests from some of my friends I decided to go to Hugo's a couple of days ago. Before that I took a quick look at their published menu and saw ingredients used in Mexican food. I did not pay much attention to the plates. I wanted to see which i... read more

Haute Mexican, Haute Prices – The man across the table from me was staring into my eyes with the steely resolve that only an abundance of hard years in a hard life can bring. I returned his gaze, trying to instill as much determination into my own. I knew he meant business, but so did I. My jaw clenched, I loaded up; praying to all the gods I knew that he would back down, the clatter of steel against ceramic let me know that I would not be so lucky. The tension and testosterone, so thick in the atmosphere, could almost be se... read more

Don't believe the Hype – Hugos is considered to be Houston finest Haute Mexican restaurant. Honestly, I don't think It lived up to the hype. Yes, it has some pretty good food, and it even has some pretty obscure offerings, such as the fried crickets. But once the novelty wears off, you find that Hugo's isn't really the kind of place you feel comfortable parting with $40 a head of your hard earned cash. Yes, the fajitas are good. Yes, the enchiladas are flavorful and elegant; but no, they're not worth the $20 Hugo's charges f... read more

Beware of Reservations – Had reservations for Sat, 11/7, to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. Upon arrival was told the facility had been rented for a wedding reception and my reservation was invalid. No phone call advising of this, not apology from anyone, not even a "we are sorry" was heard. This was to be our first time to dine here, and certainly was the last. To add insult to injury, when writing a note to them in the comment section of their website, the comment would not be sent because the e-mail address was pi... read more

I can't wait to go back! – My family and I went to Hugo's for my brother's birthday and absolutely loved it. The food was authentic and delicious, and the service was great. We went to the bar while we waited for a table and the bartender even came out from behind the bar to take our drink order (we were standing because the bar was full) and made great suggestions. Because I come from a Hispanic background I don't like to pay too much for something my mom can cook at home, but Hugo's was well worth the cost. If you really l... read more
