Hugo’s Restaurant is an incredible eatery located in the heart of Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood, California. #Powerjournalist Markos Papadatos has the recap.

There are two locations, one in West Hollywood and another in Studio City. This journalist had the good fortune to dine in the West Hollywood location.

For Breakfast, one ought to try their “Chipotle Scramble,” which consists of scrambled scrambled with diced grilled chicken breast, peppers, onions, scallions, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese and slightly spicy honey-chipotle sauce over corn tortillas, topped with sour cream.

The same holds true for their exquisite “Pasta Mama,” which is sheer bliss. “Pasta Mama” is made up of fresh pasta scrambled with eggs, garlic, parsley, Parmesan cheese and Hugo’s special seasoning. Their “Papa Mama” alone is a reason good enough to visit Hugo’s in Los Angeles.
