Hugo’s Seafood Bar

Amazing quality fish and oysters. Their cocktails are amazing, small vibe place. If I lived here I’d be a regular. So good! The yellowtail was thick sliced and very fresh (hard to find). Same thing with the tuna. Really liked the Tequila Smash. The Hugo Spritz was probably the most creative cocktail I’ve ever tried - it has cantaloupe boba tea floaters in it. Really delicious and a cool drink experience!

Tiny but mighty! This restaurant is absolutely amazing and a MUST for any seafood lover. Everything we have ordered is full of flavor and so fresh. Cocktails are also so good. So nice to have a legit seafood spot in BA!

I personally did not like fries because they were not crisp enough for me. Maybe I should have asked to make them crisp. I will give them a try again. It is a small place.

Their seafood is high quality and delicious. We ordered a dozen oysters which are delicious . My boyfriend said the lobster roll was one of the best he’s ever had, even better than spots on the east coast. I ordered the ahi tuna , and let me tell you, it reminds me of being back in Hawaii. It’s so delicious and fresh. I can’t wait to return again and again.

Two Hugos, one bar: one shucks the finest oysters, the other stirs the dirtiest martini in town...together, they’re brine and divine.

The neighborhood desperately needed a spot like this. They make a perfect dirty martini, the oysters are so great, and the tostadas, honestly, are as good if not better than Contramar (I would wait in a line for “the ultimate”). Highly respect their burger, and the lobster mac is piled with real lobster. Hope Hugo’s stays forever we will be regulars!

This cozy spot is all heart. Everything on the menu - kitchen and bar both - is a work of love and while it’s a small restaurant, it doesn’t feel crowded. Weekend brunch means the full menu PLUS extra brunch dishes and fewer crowds than weekend nights, so that’s what I’d recommend. Everything we had was amazing, and it’s definitely a new fave spot.

An excellent new addition to the Bishop Arts District area. I went with a group of friends to try out the place and we loved it. The lobster and crab croquettes are sublime. The oysters are fresh and delicious. The lobster roll.. a knockout. This place doesn’t miss. I can’t want to go back to try the other items on the menu. definitely stop by for your seafood fix. Thanks Chef!

TINY TINY establishment. Recommend reservations or get there early. Friendly and helpful staff Super fresh seafood Loved the caviar sampler And the oysters Good wine list Nicely crafted cocktails Intimate atmosphere. Not really good for large parties unless you book ahead. Will definitely be back for dinner soon

My friend and I randomly picked this spot for lunch, and I'm so glad we did. We started off with the Oyster Shooters -- I spiked mine with vodka, and she went with sake. Both were delicious and a fun way to kick things off. For my main, I ordered the prime strip steak and added an extra side of potatoes. Everything was cooked perfectly, but the real standout was the bone marrow butter -- absolutely incredible and packed with flavor. The service was fantastic from start to finish, and we didn't have a single issue. Overall, a great lunch spot with excellent food, friendly staff, and a chill Bishop Arts vibe. Highly recommend!

Loved all the food, especially the scallop and the crab tostadas. Very fresh and light. Can't wait to go back and try more. Cute and small inside. The mezcal cocktail was just ok. Would order something different next time.

Always over the top with their friendly service! Cozy and as formal or informal as you want. They have great oysters and the food is so good! It's always on out "go to" list when in Dallas!!

Hugo's is as advertised!!! Quaint little spot that fits about 25-30 at most but is absolutely doing things right. We tried half a dozen of east coast and premium (Canadian) oysters and they were both fantastic. They also have a couple house made hot sauces that are really nice and frankly go so much better on tostadas than the oysters. Ahi Tuna Tostadas was also very tasty. For a more heavier option, the crab and lobster croquettes were out of this world good. The crab cake part of it was filled with real crab meat and not a bunch of fillers. Drinks were great and inventive and staff were super attentive and polite. Great to finally have some variety like this in the DFW food scene !!!!

Came in around dinner time on a Thursday evening to a more than half full restaurant. The vibe inside felt very New York to me, this could have easily been a small restaurant tucked away in a SoHo neighborhood. Our waiter was very friendly and the food came out in a perfectly measured time frame. First, I want to mention that I think the thing they do best here is their craft cocktails. Excellently balanced no frills drinks. I would have happily enjoyed their entire cocktail menu. We decided to order small bites off their starter/appetizer menu only. To be honest, the options on the mains/entrees seemed kind of basic leaving something more to be desired. The ahi tuna tostada (waiter recommendation) was maybe my favorite bite of the meal. It was very beautiful to look at it, the tostada crisp was exceptional, the flavor on the ahi was big and bright, and the avocado added a wonderful finish to the bite. The caviar sampler for me was a nice experience but honestly there was too much crème friache served with the caviar bite and it kind of overwhelmed the delicate flavors of the caviar. The grilled oysters eaten with the toasted crostini were solid but the flavors were kind of tamped down and muted, it definitely needed that squeeze of lemon on top with it. The lobster croquettes you can tell were freshly made and tasted really good along with the veloute sauce they served them with, for me though, texturally, they was very soft and mushy and there wasn't a lot of crunch on the fried exterior of the croquette. All in all still a very delicious meal and I hope more people come to visit Hugo's. Bishop Arts could really use more restaurants like this!

This was honestly a pleasant surprise here bishop. The food was top notch and the service was even better. Would recommend for any cute date night or casual lunch. Only complaint would be the temperature, was a bit hot in there given all the windows.

Great atmosphere. Tasty food. Eclectic choices. Just a quarter-block from the heart of Bishop Arts, nestled between a board game shop and a touristy t-shirt store, sits Hugo's. Sure, it's a bar--but it's also a restaurant, a caviar bar, and a relaxed neighborhood hangout. Hugo's feels both local and national. You can sample Texas-sourced caviar, slurp down East Coast oysters, or bite into a lobster roll that could hold its own in Nantucket. I would've liked a broader wine selection, but the curated list was solid. Whether you're in the mood for a drink, a few small bites, or a taste of the East Coast in the middle of North Texas, Hugo's is worth a stop.

Every single dish is top of the line! Creatively conceived, perfectly executed, and beautifully plated. I could not be more impressed! The garden salad with beets was as beautiful as it was tasty. The redfish was perfect!

If you are looking for tasty oysters in Dallas, look no further. The restaurant is small but the food was amazing. We had an incredibly helpful waitress. She pointed out her favorite menu items. I loved the Hugo spritz it was 10/10. I'd recommend Hugo's seafood for an intimate dinner or date night because the restaurant is very pretty.

Amazing place! Bishop arts needed a new and contemporary take on the raw seafood bar. Oysters are 10/10. I don't think I had a bad plate and I've tried multiple things from their menu Ambiance is private/small/intimate. Hands down my new go to bar/dinnerspot

OMG! Fabulous elevated food. Great bar vibe. Helpful, attentive staff. It may be a bar, but it's not bar food. We'll be back!

An absolute must stop! Ambiance and service was exceptional and the food was 10/10! Enjoyed a half dozen oysters which came with their homemade hot sauce, the lobster croquettes that were generously filled with buttery lobster, and finished with the house cheeseburger, perfectly grilled and packed with flavor.

Nice new seafood restaurant in the bishops arts district of Dallas! Had the seafood pasta special.

Perfect cozy atmosphere with a friendly staff service amazing .Now let's to the reason why you should go there ,I'm a foodie visiting from NY . There East Coast Oysters amazing,Yellowtail/Ahi Tuna wow factor any fresher you would have to catch it yourself. Caviar Sampler must try.Just to make sure I didn't leave hungry had to have there killer w fresh potatoes oh let's not forget ther Oyster shooter .5

Service was on point with recommendations and timing. Everything we ordered was great, especially the oysters and tuna tostadas. Their Blame it on the Juice cocktail with melon and milk wash was amazing. Quaint, casual space off Davis with good music and people watching.

Everything is great! I got the "Blame it on the juice" it is very delicious. The oyster is so fresh. The lobster and crab croquettes is so delightful. The shrimp cocktails is also awesome. The service is also attentive. Will definitely come back.

Not only was the food amazing, but our server, Lalo, was friendly, knowledgeable and very detail oriented. Our drinks stayed full, he continuously checked with us to see if we needed anything and even brought out the chef to explain the house sauce to us! Speaking of the house salsa, it is a must have!!!!

Food, drinks, service are all always fantastic. Small restaurant but lively and we can always get a table after work. We usually get oysters, shared plate, and two entrees. The burger is amazing and the seasonal specials too. Mario is always welcoming and friendly. We've been once a month since we moved to Bishop Arts. Couldn't recommend Hugo's more...

had an incredible experience at Hugo Seafood & Drinks! From start to finish, everything was amazing. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and the staff was so friendly and attentive. I ordered the shrimp pasta and a pineapple mezcal drink--both were absolutely delicious! Every bite was packed with flavor, and the drink was refreshing and perfectly balanced. We also had an appetizer that was just as impressive. The entire experience was so good that I find myself dreaming about going back. If I could give it a 10 out of 10, I would. I highly recommend Hugo's if you're looking for amazing food, great drinks, and a fantastic environment!
