    Philadelphia roll
    John M.

    LOCATION: Easy to get to, just a minute off 410 on the West side. Parking lot can be a little small in the busy, peak hours, but usually not bad. Staff has always been friendly when I've been. Inside, the aesthetics are nice with darker reds and blacks keeping the place feel private and modern. FOOD: I'm not a huge sushi fan, but I like the basic rolls like Philadelphia or California. The dynamite roll has jalapeños and was surprisingly good as well. I love Korean food, and it's cool to see they serve some. I really enjoy the Bulgogi, however, the number of onions served with it far outweighs the number of green peppers, which I would prefer to even out. That's a minor gripe. The Bulgogi doesn't taste like typical Korean restaurant, and the slices are a bit thicker than normal, but overall I really like their spin on it. Would recommend it for sure. DRINKS: We like to do Sake bombs where we order the sake and a beer, then drop a sake shot into the beer glass. Always a fun experience. OVERALL: Awesome place, good food and drinks, definitely a nice spot to keep on your radar. They have enough on the menu to keep it fresh every time.

    Cucumber salad

    Today we decided to try a new sushi restaurant we went to Hugo's. I have been seeing a lot of things about this place and I wanted to give it a try. It's a family owned operation which is pretty awesome to see. The restaurant had a good atmosphere. The waitress was amazing and super nice. I started off with a baked green muscles that had a little kick to it but nothing crazy the spicy mayo with the green onions was really good. I feel like it's hard to find bakery out here and this place was a spot to have it. The waitress gave us a complementary cucumber salad. It was very nice refreshing and sweet. I ordered two rolls and then she said it was buy two get one free so I got three. I got a Sunset. roll a Toro roll and then a king roll which I was told was the most popular. My wife got the lemon chicken with fried rice. and then of course, my son got chicken and fries, which was Dino nuggets. The rules are pretty good. My only complaint was there very small kind of gave me a feel that it would be like an all you can eat with the size but still wasn't bad. My wife liked her lemon chicken, but the sauce was a little thick she said all in all is a great meal.

    Godzilla Roll

    Me and the midget felt like sushi. We were both having a rough week, and thought sushi was a great idea for a pick me up. If you have love food, in a healthy way, you know that sometimes good food can serve as a little pick me up. Well....wrong place to choose. It actually put us in a worse mood. Love the decor, the staff was adequate. Well the food was just a no. We started with calamari, chicken yakitori, and soft shell crab. The calamari was so thickly breaded, with no seasoning, and overcooked, that unless you knew you were ordering calamari you would have thought they were flavorless onion rings. The soft shell crab was the same thing. No seasoning and the crab tasted off. In the best restaurants that cook these items the breading is light and lets the ingredients shine through. They aren't fried and breaded to oblivion. The yakitori at least used the right cut of meat, but it felt more like a skewer with some weird sauce. Not traditional at all. My son order the Godzilla roll, and I decided to order bulgogi because honestly I got scared. When my son said his sushi was just a little better than heb, that's a problem. Here is the deal with sushi. It's driven by the quality of your ingredients. We mostly tasted cream cheese. The bulgogi was ok. Not great, but not bad. Overall we will not be coming back. Not cheap either, but if the food was better may not have been such a big deal. Will not be back.

    San Antonio has a huge amount of sushi places, which makes it difficult to choose. This was my first time eating at Hugo's and I really enjoyed my meal. The place is clean and sparsely decorate. Service is good and food came out in a timely manner. I ordered two rolls to share and a cucumber salad. Portions were perfect for sharing and food was delicious. Prices were equivalent to other sushi places, so not cheap, yet food was well prepared. Hugo's was a good place to enjoy sushi.

    Sushi Sampler
    Whitney H.

    Hugo's Sushi and Asian Cuisine might not grab your attention from the outside, but step in, and you'll find a cozy, inviting, and modern atmosphere. I visited during the lunch special and tried the sushi sampler, which included one roll and three pieces of nigiri. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and extremely satisfying. We also had the sesame chicken with fried rice, an egg roll, and miso soup. While enjoyable, it wasn't particularly memorable. The service, however, was a highlight--our server was friendly and even humored my friend's endless dad jokes. While Hugo's wouldn't be my absolute first choice for sushi, it's definitely a spot I'd visit again. Solid option for a relaxed and enjoyable meal!

    The ambiance here is very relaxing and service is alway great. They offer sushi and sashimi. I had a poke bowl and it was delicious! Plenty of different rolls and other entrees if you are not a fan of sushi. My husband likes the Mongolian beef! Diamond poke bowl was very tasty!

    Gyoza and egg rolls appetizers waiting on the main entree
    Steven M.

    Shirt review: Yes I would recommend this place, the gyozas were good, the egg rolls were tasty, and the sushi was very good. Food - the food was very good, I ordered the Texas Heat Roll and Tempura Roll. Also ordered the Gyoza and Egg Rolls for appetizers. Eel sauce wasn't the best, but I do recommend this sweet red sauce they serve with the enrolls. All I can say is that I will be back and you should visit. Service - the service was really good, very attentive and good customer service. Ambiance - the restaurant was very clean and the environment was very casual, the music and tv's in background are low enough to where you can have a conversation with someone. Very nice ambiance and layout of the restaurant.

    Nice place in a strip mall. They have hot or cold dishes. They even have a low carb item for those watching their waistline. Friendly staff with a clean environment

    Hugo's is located in small shopping strip. At. A glance, it doesn't look like a sushi restaurant. They offer sushi, poke and Japanese entrees. Some sushi rolls are traditional, but some are unique to them. I had the king roll, which was a typical sushi roll. My friend had a fried roll, the Texas heat. We both enjoyed our rolls. They have happy hour M-F 3-6pm. Our waiter was great. He was fast and friendly. Parking is available on site, but shared with the other businesses.

    Came here on a Friday night for a double date. Definitely make a reservation because this place was…read morepacked and poppin. We didn't realize this place was a cousin of Shiro and owned by the same guy until we saw some similarities in their style, layout and menu but nevertheless, the food was still absolutely amazing. Even though the ambiance had some similarities, I'm glad their food options were distinguished because otherwise could have just gone downtown. You cannot go wrong with any of their food options. Highly recommend doing family style so you can get a taste of everything and all the different flavors. We started with the gyoza and calamari which were to die for and were not greasy at all. Pork ssam, wagyu, miso pasta and octopus all brought a little bit of their own element and flare to your palate that it's hard to describe unless you try it. Wagyu was just melt in your mouth delicious. Pork ssam and octopus had their crunchy texture and umami flavors. The miso pasta added a light refreshing touch to balance everything out but don't let it fool ya, the noodles will expand in your stomach. We topped it off with their yuzu cake. Our only disappointment was they were out of their other desserts but nevertheless everyone of us left full and happy. Would come here again.

    When I first read about Yozora, I honestly thought it sounded a bit pretentious. Fascinating, but…read morepretentious. Because the idea of music being an actual integral part of the dining experience--not just some kind of background noise--felt a little precious for my taste. I'm glad to admit I was wrong. So let's start with the ambiance and the vibe of Yozora. It's in a fairly non-descript kind of center; not bad but not specially memorable. But the space itself is open and has an air of restrained sophistication. And then there's that hi-fi set up. The music at Yozora really is part of the experience, but it's not intrusive in the way that you'd think. Most of what my dining companion and I heard was 50s and 60s jazz, and it was perfect for the occasion. Sushi and Coltrane are a great mix, and even though we were not far from the hi-fi system, I could hear every word of our conversation, without the need for either of us to raise a voice. Somehow, it's like the music operates on a different frequency from regular table chatter. Suffice to say, the music enhanced the mood and really set a scene for Yozora's chefs to tell some stories. And that, they do really well. We started out with seasonal tempura and miso masu ceviche--ocean trout marinated in miso, soy, and lime juice--that was sublime. But funnily enough, the real star small plate was a truffle creamy miso soup that was earthy and slightly sweet at the same time and was silky in texture. From there, we ordered a series of crudo and battera, each unique in its own way. It was wonderful stuff, accompanied by a rice lager. The kitchen at Yozora is not shy about experimenting with non-traditional flavors and ingredients. Sometimes it works really well; sometimes, not as well, but it's never bad, and the servers actually ask for feedback for the kitchen, which is something I rarely see. Yozora honestly seems to be most concerned with creating a great dining experience, and it does that, from the chefs to the line cooks to the servers (who are helpful and attentive without hovering). The music, the mood, and the menu add up to a memorable experience.

I was immediately annoyed because the music was very loud to me. That could have been due to the empty restaurant, the actual volume or my perception of the volume lol. I was really hoping for a more intimate vibe for conversation. The speakeasy lounge actually looked more like the vibe that I desired but I settled in and placed my order. I wanted some of the showier selections seen on IG, so I ordered the tuna tower and flaming Romeo & Juliet roll and a cute (albeit sweet) cocktail that came in a goldfish shaped glass. When the tuna tower arrived the young server asked me something several times which I couldn't hear over the music, so I just nodded. After she smashed the tuna tower, I figured out she was asking if I wanted it mixed. Lol my bad! I actually did not want it mixed but it was delicious anyway. The Romeo and Juliet roll took forever to stop flaming but once it died down, it was absolutely delicious. My partner enjoyed his roll as well and they gave him a complimentary birthday desert with sparklers. Overall I give service a 3. I would have liked a more professional presentation of the menu, hyping it up a bit. And a less soft spoken server. The food was a solid 5, everything was fresh and scrumptious. Overall I give Uni'ko 4 stars and I look forward to returning. I thought it was a good value given the extra razzle dazzle and food quality.

Could be a nice, intimate place for dinner though we were seated next to a pretty loud group. Service was fast and friendly, which was appreciated. The meal itself was decent, not great. Tried the masago and snow crab off the sushi menu; the former was good, but the latter strangely dry, as if it had sat out a little too long. An appetizer portion of the shrimp and vegetable tempura was very good. Particularly puzzling was the unagi roll. Not only did each piece of the roll fall apart, it was doused with so much eel sauce that it was hard to taste anything else. Looking back on it, I should have sent it back to the kitchen. Of note was the tempura banana dessert, which was a sort of Japanese take on a sundae! Putting crisp, hot chunks of fruit up against sweet vanilla ice cream, sprinkles, and chocolate syrup (not berries as the menu claimed) was...well, interesting. I probably wouldn't order it again, but it is novel. Average it out and it's a decent place, though I would only come again if I was in the area for something else to begin with. This place scores a 3 out of 5 on the 'CTJ Scale', as noted below. 5 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Jesus good. Would be OK passing away after finishing a plate here. 4 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Mary good.
