"Hugo’s Dining has become our absolute go-to for pizza and pasta. We’ve ordered from them plenty of times now, and every single time, the food is spot on—hot, fresh, and packed with flavour.
The California pizza, garlic focaccia with cheese, and the ragu—and honestly, it never disappoints. The California pizza has the perfect balance of crispy-yet-chewy crust, fresh toppings, and just the right amount of char. The garlic focaccia with cheese? Absolute heaven. Soft, fluffy, super garlicky, and the cheese just takes it to another level. And the ragu is always rich, slow-cooked, and packed with flavour, with pasta that’s actually cooked properly (none of that overcooked mush you sometimes get with delivery).
What really sets Hugo’s apart is their consistency—no surprises, no off nights, just reliably amazing food. If you’re after a solid, go-to Italian spot !! "
"I absolutely love Hugo’s Polpette! It’s something I always order when dining at the restaurant and it usually comes with four meatballs.
I was craving it today and was so happy to see it available on DoorDash. However, despite the menu description stating four meatballs, my order arrived with only three.
It was still delicious, as always! Just a little disappointed by the smaller portion, especially since I was expecting the usual four. It felt like a bit of a downgrade and I’m curious why the serving size was different this time."

"In Russia, we have a pizzeria chain, that is called Dodo Pizza. I never realised how DIVINE their pizza was, until I came to Australia. I've eaten and tried many different pizzas here, but none of them could compare to Dodo.
AND FINALLY WE ARE HERE
Chicken Pesto Pizza it's FIRST pizza which is so similar to Dodo pizza
This dough, these products, this taste, everything is just like theirs

"The Americana was great, it was cooked really well and it was delicious. The pizza had a good amount of toppings on it.Alla Panna Sauce The pasta was cooked really well but the Alla Panna Sauce was a little bit on the watered down side, it wasn't thick or had a very good consistency.

"Been eating here since the'70's. The food has always been great, had my first veal parmigiana there it was smothered with a great bolognaise sauce, that’s what I thought Parma's were supposed to be wonderful, anyway from pizzas to pastas, mains and desserts I have never been disappointed, I hope this place never closes or changes. Love it "
"Second time I've ordered within a few days that's how delicious this is! The Chicken Scaloppine Funghi is amazing and worth the value, only complaint is there was way less chips then I got the other night but still a massive meal with leftovers. Fresh and hot as well!

Same as the Gluten Free Walnut & Chocolate Fudge bar it wasn't rich and heavy like you think it will be. it was really nice! thank you! this place shows quality. will definitely be ordering again! thank you so much :)"
"Chicken Schnitzel Soft Sandwich was awful - inedible. The bread was so stale, when I tried to slice it in half it cracked open and fell apart in shards. Couldn't chew it. The bread ratio is also way off, like 80% stale bread to filling - and the schnitzel is the size of a chicken tender. Grey lettuce. Mayo was so old it had started to oxidise and split. Mont Blanc was exceptional and I have had the Fish Tacos here which incredible."

"I’ve been ordering the Gorgonzola pasta from Palazzo for 15 years, and it’s still as good as ever. The pizzas are excellent too, with a delicious thick base, fresh ingredients and plenty of sauce with loads of flavour. The portions are generous, the quality is consistent and it’s always great value.
The guys behind the counter and in the kitchen are always friendly and accommodating. We have family members with gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan dietary requirements, and the team always makes sure everyone’s needs are met.
After 15 years, there’s a reason we keep coming back. Great food, great people and a restaurant that consistently delivers."

"Delish pizza and pasta combo, loved the lasagne, lots of layers, simple beautiful bolognese and the pizza was AMAZING, generous toppings, loved the Prestonion topping selection. I did throw the pizza slices in my air fryer for 5 minutes before eating however, but that's because I love my pizza well done & extra crispy which worked a treat. Will be ordering again."
"Food was cold and nothing tasted good.
The Polpette didn't have any seasoning and the sauce was oily. The focaccia that was suppose to come with, it was just a dry pizza dough.
The pizza was full of salada to hide the lack of topping, one slice of prosciutto for the entire pizza.
The Gnocchi Chips were tasteless, the only good thing was thr crispiness. Really sad to have paid 60 dollars for this sad meal. "

"Focaccia Garlic was really good! The base is delicious. Tiramisu is not the best..ok maybe.. doesnt taste super fresh and am concerned with how long its been sitting there.
BUT the Caprese is so bad, im not eating it.
I knew by the ingredients listed it abviously isnt a traditional Caprese as Olives....and the picture shows SOME dressing...yes,the Spinach is fresh AF, but thats the only conforting thing- but I still cant eat it as it is drowning in dressing!
Its so overpowering and not yum."

"If it weren't for the Chipotle sauce, there would be no flavour. It was definitely frehly made, but the chicken strips were slightly burnt/dry on most of the slices. The portion was also on the smaller size and for the same price, i could have gone with PH or Deb and received something more consistent/filling."

"The pizza was ok but it was a bit salty and the base was doughy and rubbery which means they are not resting the dough long enough to let the gluten settle. I definitely wouldn't put them in the top #4 best pizzas in the area. oh, and I paid $5 for a 375ml can of coke Not 600ml as advertised."

"Not at all exaggerating, the Maddy gnocchi is the BEST mushroom gnocchi I've ever had. It's rich in flavour and has an amazing texture. The balance between the mushroom and sauce work perfectly.

"Margherita Pizza had bland pineapple, 3 pieces of basil, and a thick caking of cheese. Really average tasting and not what I expected for $25.

"Food was generally good BUT a pizza this size (27 cm in diameter) should not be defined as "large" and should not cost $27.
It also arrived cold (other dishes were hotter).
The Rigatoni was also small for it's price, and the Kids Spaghetti Meatballs meatballs were super salty. 😭 "
