Hugo's was a sort of consolation prize to me by my husband after we were left stranded by the GreyLine bus tour to Wicklow on the last day of our Ireland visit. We walked into town from the Jury's Ballsbridge and passed Hugo's accidentally on our way to the archeological museum. I saw that they were serving brunch and that... more

Hugo's was recommended to us by our b-and-b owner, and we were pleased with our experience, will be back next time we get to Dublin. We both had seafood dishes (scallop/prawn combination and a salmon dish) that were very good, followed by a peach cobbler that was the best dessert we had on our two-week trip. The wine selection is... more

Reading other reviews, I chose to book this restaurant before travelling to Dublin. We only had one night and wanted something special. Unfortunately this wasn't it.

We started with the garlic toast in red wine sauce with poached eggs; it was amazing. For main course I had the crispy duck and my... more

DH and I walked into Hugo's without a reservation (barman at Doheny & Nesbitt recommended it to us) and we were happy to sit in the front bar room in a window seat--perfect for people-watching. Both food and wine and the waitstaff was excellent. We definitely recommend it! more
