    Wife and I had a lovely dinner at Hugo’s during our Chicago weekend stay. My wife had the Caesar salad with medallions and I chose a bowl of clam chowder soup. Both were great! I also chased down 4 different oysters that were amazing. Great presentation and the waiter explained what I was to expect and taste profile nicely. For dinner my wife had the twin lobster tails 4oz and I chose the Hugo burger. For drinks she had wine and I had GT and an old fashioned. Overall, a very nice dinner with a pianist playing was a great touch. We will return happily.
