Authentic Mexican restaurant serving a range of traditional foods. All dishes are prepared from scratch in house and most use organic, grassfed or pastured ingrediants. The tortilla's and chips are prepared using nixtamalized masa. Nixtamalization is the traditional way to prepare corn that enhances flavor and nutrition! Hugo's is great for a casual meal out or a more formal dinner if preferred.
