1. Host was super rude. 2. We came in with high expectations for the food And it was the biggest disappointment. 3. Take your money somewhere else, food was not worth the price! Never had steak that had a game taste to it. Chives pancakes overcooked. The only good dish was the fried rice and the noodles.

5 Stars – “Hugo’s Cellar: Old Vegas Elegance, Unbeatable Value, Eternal Devotion” In a city where you can drop $500 on a cocktail made by a robot and a gold-plated chicken wing, Hugo’s Cellar is nothing short of a revelation. Five of us dined like royalty—drinks included—for a bill so reasonable I was certain they forgot to charge me for half of what we ordered! That’s not a meal, that’s a miracle in modern Las Vegas. From the moment you walk in, it’s like stepping into a warm, velvet-draped time machine. The ladies receive roses (yes, roses, like it’s 1963 and chivalry never died), and then it only gets better: tableside salad prepared with the kind of attention usually reserved for heart surgery, a palate-cleansing sorbet that feels like it was whispered into existence, and a birthday treat for my girlfriend that came in addition to a round of chocolate-dipped strawberries that basically healed all of our childhood wounds. The service? Impeccable. The vibe? Old Vegas charm turned up to eleven. And the food? Perfectly prepared, generously portioned, and plated with the kind of confidence that only comes from knowing you’re the best-kept not-so-secret in town. We will return every time we come to Vegas. Forget overpriced steakhouses with attitude and a DJ booth—this is the dinner experience you’re actually looking for. Hugo’s doesn’t just feed you. It makes you feel like Vegas still remembers how to treat people.

100% recommendable… it's hard to find but well worth the trip, the coffee is very, very good and the toast is more than worth it. Good value for money considering its location and what it offers, 10/10

4 of us met at Viand Cafe for breakfast, and the food was OK, but very expensive. Checking the bill, we noticed they tried to charge us twice for 2 of the 4 breakfasts we had. They seemed cagey when we pointed this out and eventually corrected the check. It appears they were trying to take advantage of tourists eating at the Cafe in the Beacon Hotel building.

Absolutely not worth the money Over priced for the quality and felt like we were paying for the name Was very disappointing after watching the show for many years
Tripadvisor Top complaints
Absolutely would not return this is false advertising. I came for breakfast. Terrible service with a very bad attitude. The food is low quality for the price, the coffee too expensive for flavor, quality and quantity. Be careful this is just a name. I didn't try the pastries after the breakfast experience, I didn't want to continue spending my money, there being so many places of excellent quality and very good service. The truth is that the waiters lack training in customer service and being more gentle. I don't recommend this place at all
Tripadvisor Top praises
10/10 experience in the heart of times square. Good coffee at a great price while in a city like New York. I recommend coming to breakfast and trying the pastries they make.
Tripadvisor Top praises
Above a supermarket is not where I expected to find a great restaurant but here it is. There is loads of choice, the pizzas are particularly excellent, and the prices are reasonable. The desserts are great too.
Tripadvisor Top praises
Absolutely loved this place! Just round the corner from our hotel (The Westin New York in Times square). The staff were friendly & welcoming - service fab. 😊 Food = fabulous!!! We had cream cheese bagels, sandwiches, salad, juice, coffee and tea on various visits. Cost of food was very reasonable and not expensive compared to a lot of places in NYC. Thanks team - you created a memory for our visit to NYC last week that we won’t forget! 😍

Very nice neighborhood place with a smart menu, excellent food and very decent prices for the area. I normally eat there for breakfast. The French toast is made from big slices of challah with real maple syrup included; no extra charge. Nice room, lovely service and the coffee is great.
