Hugo’s Oyster Bar

Truly an amazing place! The employees are so nice and kind, great with accommodations. The food is sooooo amazing. We had calamari and the beignets for the appetizers and they were so rich with flavor, def a must have. The crab stuffed shrimp was truly savory and delicious. The root beer float for dessert was the best part!! A must have when visiting Georgia.

If you’re looking for a good time and fantastic food and great customer service this is the place! That has a really good happy hour specials and the vibe is just so good. Sat at the bar and both bartenders were awesome on a busy Friday night!

Just had my first ever visit to Hugo’s Oyster Bar in Alpharetta and wow, what a vibe! The service was great, super friendly and on point, and the place had this chill, cozy atmosphere that made it perfect for hanging out and unwinding. We rolled in with a crew of six and basically turned the table into a foodie adventure-everyone ordered something different, and every single bite was delicious. A great selection of gorgeous and tasty craft cocktails to compliment the meals. And then came dessert: the house-made Olive Oil Cake and Bread Pudding were perfection. I’m already dreaming about round two!

Casual restaurant offering good seafood options. The salads and dressing were a disappointment but the oysters were good. The chargrilled were our favorite. The blue crab fingers weren't bad either. Has valet so very easy to park and bartender made the best drinks.

Great service. Joe was really nice and helpful. We ordered the praline salmon and the crab stuffed shrimp. Rocafeller oysters and their famous RC charbroiled oysters. Food was very tasty. Some of the sides surprised me on how well they were cooked and seasoned. We enjoyed ourselves and will be back.

I enjoyed eating at Hugo’s tonight for the first time! I ordered hot oysters, the crab claws, and the branzino was great!!! I will definitely come back it was well worth the drive from the city.

We had the best time here, and the food, drinks, and service were phenomenal! I can't wait to go back. It was such a delight that we're still dreaming about how good it was.

First time here… food was delicious. Pleasant surprise to see so many Cajun dishes in the menu, best I’ve had in Atlanta. The Rockefeller oysters are the best. And Maya was an amazing server!

The food here was excellent, I had the praline crusted salmon which was delicious and cooked to perfection! ,however, don't come here off you have a physical disability, like me, I am confined to a wheelchair, I was unable to get into the bathroom because it was not ADAcompliant, for those of you who don't know the ADA is The Americans with Disabilities Act which REQUIRES businesses to be wheelchair accessible, while the actual restaurant was accessible the bathroom was decidedly not so sad

The service was very good, both server and hostess. The food was very good quality and prepared nicely. The inside was quiet but also had lots of TV to watch if you wanted. The had valet service that the guy stated was the entire lot, no self parking. It was only $2 but really the parking lot was mostly empty. The hostess told us that was not true there was self parking. Overall nice place.

Disappointed in Hugo's - It's Not What It Used to Be We had high hopes for our visit to Hugo's, but unfortunately, it seems the restaurant has gone downhill. Upon arriving, we were seated at the bar and waited over 10 minutes before the bartender even acknowledged us. When we were finally able to order drinks, we had to request basic garnishes--no olives for a dirty martini, no lime for a Cuba libre. These are small details, but they matter, especially for a place that once set a high standard. The issues didn't stop there. When we ordered a second round of drinks, the bartender delivered someone else's order by mistake. We couldn't help but notice how inefficient the service was--watching the bartender cross the length of the bar at least eight times just to make one drink. It was frustrating to witness such a lack of organization. As for the food, we initially planned to stay for dinner but decided against it after seeing the plates served to our neighbors at the bar. Their fish looked shriveled and dry, far from appetizing or the quality we expected from Hugo's. Overall, this experience left us disappointed. Hugo's used to be a reliable spot, but based on this visit, it's clear that standards have slipped significantly. We hope management takes note and works to restore the level of quality and service this place was once known for. Sad!

Never disappoints! We enjoyed oysters on the halfshell, redfish, and flounder. Service was friendly and prompt.

We met a few friends at Hugo's last weekend for an early Christmas celebration. Our server, Tony, was fantastic! He made our dinner very special! First off, the Garlic Parmesan Beignets were freaking awesome! We added 2 more since there were 6 of us! We all raved about them. We will order more next time . The chargrilled oysters were also delicious! I ordered the crab stuffed shrimp and it was very tasty! Everyone loved their meals! We will definitely be back!

My friend invited me to dinner at Hugo's recently and the experience was very pleasant. The restaurant is located in a busy area in Alpharetta. The atmosphere is laid back and casual. Valet is available. I ordered the garlic Parmesan beignets and oysters Rockefeller to start. Honestly, I wouldn't order the beignets again. They were a bit dense and flavorless. On the other hand, the oysters were outstanding. For my cocktail, I got the tequila old fashioned which contains pineapple vanilla infused reposado and lavender bitters. It was good, but a tad too sweet. For my entree I got the redfish Pontchartrain style. It included shrimp, crab and dirty rice. It was an additional $15, but the Pontchartrain style was totally worth it. The dish was bursting with flavor. Our server was great and I thoroughly enjoyed my evening here.

I've been eating at Hugo's for years and have recommended this restaurant to many friends and colleagues. This has historically been our go to location in Atlanta for oysters in particular for HH. Last Monday 12/30, we went with 4 other couples for HH. The infamous RC Chargrilled were almost inedible. Even after we complained to the server that they were grossly over cooked, they continued to come out dry and completely charred. So bad that I'm hesitant to return. Not sure who was cooking last Monday, but I would highly recommend moving them off the grill. C&S in SS has the same HH and I've never experienced bad oysters there.

I had the Branzino which was flavorful and tender. My husband had the catfish and red beans and rice. Another home run. The fish was well seasoned and crispy. The beans and rice had depth of flavor without being cooked to pieces. Our waiter was excellent. He knew the menu and was perfectly attentive. The restaurant atmosphere was lively but still intimate. Really enjoyed our night out and will visit again!

The oysters were awesome and delicious. The garlic beignets (sounds strange) were delicious. These are just the appetizers, the entrees are next. So far the service was amazing and efficient. Hugo's has that Cajun and Gullah look and feel.

I always enjoy myself at Hugo's oyster bar. The food is delicious. The staff is great. The environment is great love the patio and the bottomless mimosas are an added bonus for Brunch..

I was in the area, craving oysters and decided to stop by for lunch since the restaurant has been on my radar and I frequent C&S (one of their sister restaurants). I ordered the chargrilled oysters which were really tasty although a couple of them were tiny. I wish I would have gone a little later during happy hour. For my entree, I ordered the branzino with beurre blanc sauce over mashed potatoes and lemon garlic spinach. The portion was huge. The fish with the sauce was good, a pinch of salt made it even better. The sides were tasty too but the spinach lacked salt to me.

Decided to sit outside of the restaurant on the patio because inside was a bit too chilly and I didn't bring a jacket. Hunter was our waiter and he's super personable so that was a good start.. he gave me good recommendations for my meal and I was happy that I listened to him. My Crab stuff shrimp were good, honestly my whole meal was delicious... for appetizers we had oysters some with thr lump Crab on time. Those were really good too! I would definitely come back. My husband had the Cajun grouper with broccolini and roasted potatoes and a side of crawfish rice. He had too much food that he had to take some home...

Saw Hugo's featured on an instagram Reel for hidden eats in Atlanta and knew I wanted to check it out. Hubby and I went here last Friday for date night and it was incredible, literally one of the best meals I've had in a longtime. Online I saw someone say it was dressy casual, but I'd say it's just casual. Given the menu, I thought it'd be a little more formal but you walk in and it's loud and busy, kind of rustic and low key. We ordered the crab fingers and half dozen oyster combo for appetizers and they were SO SO GOOD. Literally the perfect appetizers because I wasn't close to being full but they took the edge off and were the perfect tease to what was to come. We've never eaten oysters before and this was the perfect introduction because the oysters are covered in so many yummy things that we normally love (cheese, bacon, spinach, cream, etc lol). The sauce with the crab fingers was addicting and they give you two pieces of bread to sop it up with. When my husband proceeded to use his fork to finish off the sauce (embarrassing lol), our sever offered to bring us more bread complimentary (Service was bomb). PRO TIP: don't bite the crab meat off the crab finger, suck it off and you'll get more meat in one bite. For our entrees, I got the crab stuffed shrimp over dirty rice and topped with fried okra and hubby got the fried catfish over red beans and rice. Mine was the stuff of dreams. All my favorites in one dish. The okra was genius and added a nice textural component to the dish. The seasoning on everything was superb without being too salty. I'm getting hungry at 7:30 in the morning thinking about this meal. Because the meal was so bomb there was no way I was passing up dessert. If I had more room in my stomach I would've ordered 2-3 to try them all, but we just opted for the beignet with the praline sauce on the side (nut allergy for me). They came out hot and smelling heavenly. They were a little dense compared to beignets I've had in the past but I'd still order them again and they were delicious. Overall this place was phenomenal and I can't wait to go back. You must check it out if you haven't!

A gf & I had dinner here and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! The oysters and seafood gumbo are delicious. The service is great. The restaurant is beautiful, just a tad dark for my taste. We almost had to bust out our flashlights on our phones. Outside of that, I'd definitely go back to try their entrees for sure since we were too full to indulge ourselves!

Blackened grouper with crab risotto special will make you smack your mama!! First time because we had a gift card and it was amazing. Pineapple Express 4/5 (I'm not much of a drinker) Chicken gumbo 4.5/5 Egg rolls 4/5 Blackened grouper with crab risotto special 5/5 (really unbelievable) Shrimp with stuffed crab 5/5 Key lime pie TBD (got it to go)

Amazing!!! Crab stuffed shrimp!!! Amazing!!! If you are in Roswell, you have to stop and check this out, if you love a little Cajun!!!

Let's hear it for Hugo's Oyster Bar! Good food and good service. It's very loud and the kitchen was super slow the night we arrived - it's not enough to keep us away forever, but it will delay our return. Let's get into our selections... Appetizer: Oysters (obvi!) on the half shell. 4 Malpeque and 4 Three Bays. Both harvested on the northeast coast and delicious. Entree: Salmon salad (leafy greens, edamame, carrots, avocado, radishes, cherry tomatoes and lemon vinaigrette dressing) and a side of fries. I loved it all and left no crumbs! It took us at least 30 minutes to get our entrees. There were some new folks in the kitchen who struggled with the volume of a Saturday night crowd. We understand! It's so, so loud in here. People are having a great time and you can hear it from the moment you enter. This is not an ideal spot if you're looking for a relaxing dinner or quiet business meal. Complimentary valet is required for parking. Reservations suggested.

Bae planned a date night at this eatery and I did not know where until we arrived. This spot has been in my list to try and it did not disappoint. Our server was great and knowledgeable. He checked on us but didn't smother or disappear on us like some will do. We started with egg rolls with chargrilled oyster, of course. The only problems was that is wasn't enough of them. They were delish. We also had 2 good ole boy beers and they hit the spot. For our entree, we spilt the catfish Ponchartrain. The server recommended it and it was great. We will definitely be back...

Love the food and love the service. I had the some oysters - the C&S cups. WOW. You gotta try them. The food and service here always makes me wonder why I don't come here more often! Each and every time I walk away saying " that was really good". Every dish I have ever eaten here was delicious. I especially enjoy the Cajun flavored ones. There are many on the menu to choose from. Go and try them all! I do wish they had latte coffees to go with their beignets. That would warp up a great meal. They have valet parking - making the visit easy

I ordered to go. I was placed on a brief hold before I was able to place my order. The server was pleasant. My oysters were really good. For the price, I would have liked to have big oysters. 3 were big and 3 were super small. The Tasso deviled eggs were really good! I would go back and sit in the restaurant. You come in by the bar. They have a lot of seating. It's dim lighting.

The key lime pie is the best I've ever had!!! It doesn't taste like a fake lime out of the box. The service was great. Waiters were attentive and helpful with the menu. The environment is very chill and casual. The blue crab fingers were a bit salty. Highly recommend the oyster combo option. Also enjoyed the grilled red fish.

The ambiance is always cool n fun, great service & the service was friendly n professional as always! Peach bellini cocktail was average-ish - had better elsewhere. Oyster combo was DELISH & usually is!! The crab salad was flavorful as well, but $32 for a salad is just a bit much so may be a while before going again.

Came here on a Saturday night and Isabella took care of us!! It was our anniversary and we ordered our favorite chargrilled oysters in the city and the best jalapeño margaritas :) Service is ALWAYS impeccable and food is exceptional. Laid back vibe with 5-star food. Drinks are strong and wine list is plentiful. The blackened redfish was recommended by Isabella and did NOT disappoint. The key lime pie ended our night and we couldn't be more satisfied. Can't wait to come back again...y'all make your reservations tonight!!! This is one of Atlanta's best kept secrets :)

Wonderful vibe and great food, premium experience with a not so premium price tag! Came with friends and family on a random evening and enjoyed our experience, oysters were shucked well with little sand/dirt and cut connecting mussel, unlike some other locations that I've visited in the city. Parking is not the most bountiful, but there are options in the area if you don't mind a little walking. And don't get the name of the location throw you off, all other items outside of oysters are great!

Loved this place! When I am missing New Orleans and need a fix, this is the place! Great oysters! The service is friendly! The food is hot and fresh! Omg Save room for dessert because you will lick the plate with the warm Carmel. Delish!

Brooke was a wonderful bartender. She Gave great suggestions, food was good. Perfect for lunch time. Thank you for hiring a good person to your team.

Excellent service. Went for Valentine's Day. Food was excellent except for the consistency in the crawfish fried rice. My husband had an order and I had an order and the two tasted totally different. Not bad, just two very different dishes. I left my red velvet bread pudding at the restaurant! So I don't know how it taste! I am so sad I left it. Otherwise, super cute and chill vibe! We will definitely be back!

This is one of my favorite places in Atlanta to get fresh oysters. I highly recommend this place... The food is always great (especially the oysters...). The vibe is super casual and fun, and they have a relatively good bourbon selection for those that like to enjoy that special brown liquor with their oysters! Highly recommend! PS the only reason I didn't give it five stars is that they were out of french fries the last time I ate there... This is America, you can never run out of french fries... That's a big no-no!

This is a cute seafood restaurant in Roswell with a nice selection of oysters. Our waiter was very nice and personable and the service was pretty quick. My husband loved his charbroiled oysters, Rockefeller and Hugo's. The blue crab fingers were a disappointment for the price. 15 small crab fingers and two pieces of bread for $24 was not worth it. The calamari looked good and was a more reasonable price with more food. The true Greek salad I got with chicken wasn't what I expected as there was no lettuce. It was so dark in the corner booth I guess I didn't see the Greek salad had no lettuce! It was only tomato, cucumber and olives with some feta cheese for $15 and $11 for the chicken. Definitely won't order that again as there are so many great Greek salads other places with lettuce. The fried okra was good, but extremely salty so I'll probably pass on that too. Happy hour for oysters from 4-6 during the week sounds like the way to go.

The egg rolls were grrrrrreat!! Wanted to order a few to take home but i felt like i was being a pig

This place, I mean, this place reminds me so much of all the goodies I grew up eatin'. We showed up for the annual crawfish getdown and weebled in with a wobble out. A few slicks were outside laying down the law of tunes while we all gobbled and stuffed the face. No one gave the spoiler alert that the service was slightly bo-bo, or maybe it was just the server...or maybe it was just the day? The food shadowed that and those cold beers erased it. I appreciate ownership bringing these cultural food(s) to the area but would appreciate it more if they had their shop next door to my house.:) Crawfish were iddy, but 2lbs down the guzzle maked up the difference. Mama downed the Skrimp Po and said it was a delight. We had champ in tow, which is a fickle eater and had the something, something pancake burrito. Bits and pieces flew all around while he ate; guess that means it was fire...he earned a plastic fork into the Empty Plate Club. Y'all! Try this place, Do It! You'll sing the same praise, but if you get the server we had...tip him first.

Love the oysters and the calamari is one of the best I've ever had. The etouffee is outstanding. My complaint is the noise level. I was there last night and I could barely stand it and I have limited hearing. Every time I go there I come away with saying I'm not going back because of the noise. The wait staff are always great. I really wish something could be done about the noise.

I do not like to do this, and doing so does not bring me any joy, but we really had a horrible time this afternoon for lunch. For the amount of money that is charged - I really feel like Hugo's needs to do a better job all around. The valet guy was very sweet - but it is also mandatory so keep that in mind. We made a reservation and were able to sit right away. We opted for the patio, but be warned the road noise is really loud. We ordered the following: Tequila Old Fashioned ($14) Sweetwater 420 ($5.75) Crispy Calamari ($14) Tuna Tartar ($18) Blue Crab Fingers ($22) Oyster Combo ($18) The service was subpar. So incredibly slow and her cleanliness was actually grossing me out. There was dirt under all of her fingernails - the same hands that delivered my food and drinks. It was really off-putting, not to mention she never checked on us after our food was delivered. If she had, I could have told her both hot dishes arrived cold. Like cold. She then commented she wished she knew sooner.. well that happens if you check on your tables or at the very least ask someone else to. I get it - the entire world is understaffed, but when you have signs outside with a dress code and code of conduct including a request for people not to be on their phones they are going to expect a certain level of service and attention. The portion size is also ridiculous. The blue crab fingers were $22 and it was the saddest plate of crab I have ever seen, not to mention cold. Now admittedly we didn't end up paying for the crab fingers because we could not stomach them - but I all but had to insist we did not touch it and did not intend to. The tuna tartar was not a great quality of tuna. The tuna itself was cut so sloppily - it looked shredded. The avocado was also not ripe so we had to eat around most of it. The calamari, also cold, was barely fried and was so soggy. The marinara it was served with was probably 15 times hotter than the calamari itself. The oyster combo was mediocre. 2 were huge so they were cold and not even the cheese had melted. 2 were tiny so of course they were burnt. The oysters were also not cleaned properly which wasn't great. My husband ordered a draft beer and was brought a bottle. Fine. My drink was not great, although it was aesthetically pleasing. All in all this was a HUGE miss - from service to the food. There are a ton of places for great seafood. We will not be back.

I was not expecting much when we walked in - seemed like a popular neighborhood place but a little old-fashioned. The menu looked standard for a cajun spot. However, the food was really spectacular. Fresh, clean-tasting raw oysters (we ordered a second dozen after downing the first) and really different-but-tasty cooked oysters. I ordered the fried catfish over red beans and rice...again, pretty standard menu item, but it was really one of he better Cajun dishes I've ever had, even including in NOLA proper. Catfish was crispy and had none of the muddy flavor/texture you can sometimes get. All in all, a pretty great meal.

Fantastic drinks - love. Food was incredibly disappointing. Service was so so from our main server but other team members like hostess or manager - not sure what she was - stepped in to help. Apps (calamari and gulf oysters) were cold and overcooked. Nothing special and actually pretty blah. Stuffed shrimp was over cooked and dirty rice was glop that looked like leftovers from days ago. Flounder Milanese was good fish, arugula salad was a whole forkful. Very disappointing. No outstanding flavor profile. Not enough for me to come back. Overall disappointing, won't go back. Edit: We expressed our disappointment to the server. He offered us 2 desserts on the house and took 1/2 off the gross stuffed shrimp. After waiting over 20 minutes, he finally brought out the desserts - we opted for key lime pie. After getting home and checking out the key lime pie, I'm convinced that it took so long because they were digging through the cooler for the oldest pie they had. It's not yellow, it's not green, it's tan. And about the consistency of cold homemade turkey gravy - very solid. Tangy but brown. I'll try to upload a picture. All in all, if you're looking for dinner, pass on Hugo's.

I really do not love to leave bad reviews AND I am especially sadden to have to leave one for Hugo's as this is not the first time I have been here and previous experiences have been pleasant. However, I came here today for lunch with my sister and it was a terrible experience. We started with an assortment of oysters which came out already looking a little suspicious. They were not properly cleaned or cut and many were without any hydration. I went ahead and tried them (unfortunately for myself) and when I got to about the third one my stomach instantly turned as it hit my mouth due to the literally rotten taste. We immediately stopped eating them and sent them back. Against my better judgment, we ordered a crab Louis salad and shrimp and crab chowder to split. We substituted ranch for the Russian dressing. The salad was bland when it arrived and the ranch was terrible. Didn't even taste like ranch dressing. The chowder was ok but subpar. Not sure I will back and will definitely not be recommending this to anyone else.

Used to be something. It was Saturday afternoon on the 10th anniversary of their establishment. I hesitate to call them a restaurant. Eight years ago the food was okay but not at all cajun as they exclaimed. On this visit the service was subpar as was the flavorless food. Aside from the freshest of fresh oysters on the half shell, Hugo's is awful. Oysters earns them one star. As service goes, please everyone lets remember that if a guest asks for NO ICE there should be ZERO ICE in the drink. Nice attempt, an "E" for effort, with the anniversary alligator. Just don't be afraid to aggressively season the food you regard as Cajun. Last thing, no one needs hard white rice in their okra-sausage-crawfish soup. Seafood Gumbo..... nahhhhh

Food and service were awesome!! Will definitely be returning!! Red beans and rice were the best I've had in the city!

Great food and great staff! The bar was an awesome spot to hang and eat with and amazing bar tender! Great job Hugo's!

Special thanks to Hugo's for making my friend's birthday dinner an amazing experience from the excellent staff (Shanti, Whit & Elise), great food and even staying open a little after closing to let us finish out the festivities! I highly recommend this restaurant if you love oysters and seafood with somewhat of a New Orleans flair!

Although Mardi Gras, Lent and Easter have passed, Hugo's is still the bombe! It is National Eggs Benedict day, so honored that by order the Hugo Benedict with its unique take on Hollandaise. Awesome Oysters! Excellent service Yumbeaux!

We've been 3 times to this restaurant and always have a wonderful experience with both food and service. The crab fingers are a highlight with an almost drinkable sauce. Shrimp are delicious as well. Seafood is fresh and atmosphere is nice. Not too stuffy and not too hole-in-the-wall. Fun for a date night or family affair.

Love this place. Not a thing in there that tastes bad! Fried shrimp, oysters, and drinks are the best!

We visited Hugo's for their Gulf Oyster Happy Hour & I'm so glad a friend recommended this restaurant to me! Reservations were recommended, so I made them for 5:45 pm on a Wednesday! Thankfully, when we arrived there was not a lot of people. They offer complimentary valet, which is helpful, since the parking lot is rather small and would be a headache to get in and out, if it was left up to the public. If you can help it, sit on the patio, especially if it's a beautiful day/night! We started with a dozen of the Gulf Oyster's, which are the only options available for the Happy Hour. We requested to have half of them steamed and the other half raw! Steamed wasn't as tasty as the raw, so we trashed that option the second round. The Oyster's were very decent in size and delicious! We also ordered a side of the Truffle Mac & Cheese & The Crawfish Étouffée. Both very, very good & if you like to kick things up a notch, try some of the Étouffée on the mac & cheese! Surprise your taste buds, they'll thank you!!! (And then you'll thank me lol)! Our waitress was outstanding, Alysse YOU ROCK GIRLFRIEND!!!! The food was great, service was great, perfect weather for their covered patio, with TV's to watch the Basketball Playoffs! What more could you ask for! It was the perfect date night! We will definitely be back to Hugo's!!

Another awesome meal at Hugo's! My man Nathan was the best!!!!! He was such a pleasure! I love his positive attitude. We will back and hopefully he will be our server!!

Stopped by Hugo's cause my friend was craving for oysters. I believe we didn't have a reservation, just stopped by, and was seated right away. I order the following: -Dozen gulf oysters on the half shell -Half & Half Po'Boy (Shrimp and Oysters) -Lemon Drop Martini The Lemon Drop Martin was good, perfect of alcohol and fruit. Can't complain. The oysters were half hit and half miss. Half of it was fresh and sweet, the other half looks like it could have seen better days. My friend order the specialty cooked oysters and she loved hers. I'll try this next time. My half and half po boy were good. The fries that it comes with was also pretty good. Overall, I would come back for more seafood. 23/2021

We had not been to Hugo's in awhile but everything was amazing as we remembered. We tried a little bit of everything this time. We had raw oysters, crab claws, wedge salad, herb basted fish and of course, beignets. HEATH provided great service and we will return soon.

Amazing food and excellent service EVERY TIME! One of my husband and I's favorite restaurants in Roswell!!

I stopped in for some snacks and tried Calamari and Beignets, both were soooooo good. I can't wait to go back and try some of their entrees! Service was great, very attentive made great suggestions and food came out fast and hot! Ambiance is very nice, dimly lit on inside and very nice outdoor patio!
