All I can say is WOW! This was absolutely the best dinner we had in Vegas! Hugo’s is really old school Vegas and they make you feel very special. As we entered the two ladies in the group were each presented with a beautiful long-stemmed red rose, and waiting on the table was a bud vase, so they wouldn’t get wilted during dinner.
We decided to skip the appetizers, since the main courses sounded so great and none of us are the type to eat huge quantities of food. Also at Hugo’s everything is included in the price of the dinner, there are no ala carte add-ons (except appetizers & coffee, & if you want extra desserts) We had a bottle of Steele Pinot Noir, recommended by the sommelier, and it was very nice. Hugo’s starts you off with their amazing made to order salad cart, they dress your greens, top them with your choice of like 21 different things, including shrimp, and then more dressing-YUM. Then there was a very cute intermezzo of raspberry sorbet in the tiniest cone I’ve ever seen.
We each had different entrees. I had Tournedos Hugo which were two huge tenderloins topped with fois gras, artichoke and béarnaise- cooked perfectly!. Hubby had Indonesian spice crusted rack of lamb, also delish!. Our friends hubby had one of the largest and yummiest pieces of prime rib ever, and she had a flaming Duck preparation that was awesome.
After we had done the best we could with the generous entrees, out rolled the desserts. First, as it was our anniversary we were presented with a beautiful little chocolate mousse cake, on a plate where they had written Congratulations in chocolate, and painted two roses with chocolate and raspberry sauces. Then there was also a platter of chocolate dipped fruits, figs, apricots, strawberries, and whipped cream to dip them in some more! I was so wowed! Our friends had the Kona coffee, which they make in this incredible science experiment type pot that I’ve never seen before. Overall it was a great great evening, and we felt wonderful at the end of it. It wasn’t even that expensive by Vegas standards, since everything is included.
