Ugo

Met my daughter for dinner at Ugo last night. Friendliest staff. We walked into the bar at first and the bar tender was incredibly welcoming. Went over to the restaurant and was immediately greeted by staff. Our waitress (wish I learned her name) was kind, quick and helpful when I couldn't decide between two menu items. Food delicious! We started with the meatballs on the HH menu (fantastic HH!). We all agreed they were the best meatballs we've ever eaten. My husband had a steak. I enjoyed the homemade Papparelle Bolognese (a treat for me), my daughter a salad and her boyfriend Penne with Vodka sauce. Red sangria, yum!! Desserts looked incredible but we did not partake this time. We most definitely will next time. Thank you Ugo! We will see you again soon! I'm

Food was good, I loved the oven baked pasta, my wife had the fig and goat's cheese pizza and my son loved the "bow tie" pizza, though that was a little spicy.Service was wonderful.They have GF pasta but not pizza dough though which makes it a bit of a challenge for us.

Just had an underwhelming brunch at this Ugo location.Everything took a long time. It took more than 45 minutes after we sat down for the food to arrive.My breakfast skillet was tiny - almost like kids' size. It had maybe 5-6 pieces of potatoes.I was not impressed.

I've been wanting to try Ugo for quite sometime now and am so excited to have finally gone!To get straight to the point, I absolutely loved all of our food. My friend and I decided to split two dishes: the Pizza Wreath and Pesto Gnocchi. The Pesto Gnocchi was requested specifically by my friend, we asked for a creamier base and it most definitely was that! The flavors were quite good, the gnocchi was soft and chewy, and I loved the tomatoes on top to balance all those flavors out. The Pizza Wreath was absolutely delicious as well. I loved how there was a salad in the middle so we didn't just have carbs and fats for our dinner and we didn't have to order a salad separately to get some greens in. The Pizza Wreath was similar to a calzone, more like a "folded" pizza experience so if you like folding your pizza slices, this option would be great for you! The crust was chewy and had the perfect thickness. Very reminiscent of the pizza you can get at Eatly. I would loved a bit more sauce but other than that, the cheese was gooey and really tasty.When the time for dessert came around, it was a hard choice! I went ahead and chose the Tiramisu as my final item of the night since I had read so many great things about it from other reviews. I really loved the consistency as well as the strong espresso flavor topped with velvety mascarpone cream and an incredible touch of bitter cacao powder to cut the sweetness. I would've loved to have more lady fingers to help add more depth to this dish as it all became more pudding-like. But I truly did enjoy the flavors!Before I left, I had requested the Italian Hot Chocolate to-go as it was quite chilly outside. I was pretty disappointed! An authentic Italian hot chocolate is usually just straight melted chocolate but this didn't taste like that. It was definitely diluted with a lot of milk, it wasn't my favorite and wouldn't order it again. In terms of the overall service, I wasn't too happy with it either. As much as I appreciated everyone's kindness, the wait to order, to get the hot chocolate, and then the check was excessive. I had to flag down my server and other workers several times in order to be able to proceed forward in our dining experience. I did enjoy everyone's spirits, just need some improvement with timing and attentiveness.Overall, I thought this experience was quite nice! Small comments here and there and I wouldn't go here for a formal event, however, it's great for cold nights and if you're craving some hot Italian cuisine.

Great all round experience! The meatballs were legitimately as delicious as Noni would make!

The food is mediocre. The pizza sauce was so salty. The pizza bread and crust itself was okay but nothing special. The tiramisu was in a novel chocolate cup but the flavor itself lacked ... I won't be back.

Got together with a group of friends here. The service and food were good. Everyone shared and enjoyed what we all had. We were so hungry I didn't get much of a chance to get food photos except one where we had already dipped in! It's a good place for a group. They have a very nice outdoor patio as well.

Perfect spot for a nice sit-down lunch with quick and friendly service. The sandwich was ok, but the pasta was delicious! And a little gelato for dessert is a must!

Italian place in downtown Culver. Came here on a Wednesday evening with no reservation for dinner but still got seated immediately. We had a margherita pizza, penne pasta, and brussel sprouts. Given that it's in downtown culver, prices were higher than the quality of the food warranted. The brussel sprouts were undercooked and the pasta was tasteless. Our waitress didn't come by to check in with us so we had no water refill the entire meal. That being said, the seating outside was good for people watching, although the tables were dirty due to the fallen leaves.

I tried Ugo for the first time last night and thought it was great. For food I only had the Ugo pizza but it was delicious and I would order it again. It is more like an Italian pizza with globs of cheese rather than covered with shredded cheese. So good. I also had an espresso martini which was also great. Also tried the salted caramel and cookies and cream gelato. Very good like in Italy. Cookies and cream more subtle favors and caramel very bold flavor and very sweet. I would like to go back to try more menu items for sure. The ambiance was nice more cafe than fancy. The patio was beautiful but it was too cold to eat outside but they do have heat lamps. Service was quick and staff was welcoming and kind.
