Hugo’s
At this upscale Mexican mainstay in the Montrose area, celebrated chef Hugo Ortega pays homage to traditional regional dishes in a vibrant, contemporary setting with exposed brick walls, high tin ceilings, and warm yellow accents. The seasonally-inspired menu may include such highlights as squash blossom chiles rellenos, cochinita pibil (piglet slow-roasted in banana leaf), and the traditional slow-roasted meat barbacoa. A bar menu offers smaller bites, excellent margaritas, and a long list of sipping tequilas and mezcals. For dessert, the churros, stuffed with dulce de leche and served with housemade hot chocolate, is an absolute must. A Sunday brunch buffet featuring desserts, cocktails, and live music is one of the most popular in town.
