"Forget the chips, salsa, and fajitas at Hugo's. This restaurant is true Mexican cuisine and is not your usual Tex-Mex joint that you'd usually find in H-town."

"Hugo Ortega makes his dishes as close to authentic Mexican as you'll find in the US–barbocoa (lamb marinated in chiles), cobrito (roast goat) and several mole-laden meats."
