    Despite reservation, had to wait 35 minutes for table to open up. Food was OK, plating was OK, neither anything to rave about. Place was very clean, well lit. Our server was outstanding and the highlight of visit.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our experience - specialty cocktails were outstanding including "Under the Tuscan Sun" and the espresso martini. Our food was absolutely delicious - 5 for 5 with both the Chicken and Veal Florentine deserving of special shout outs. Bradley stopped by our table making us feel so welcome and appreciated. Cannot say enough positive things about our evening. And the ability to make a reservation in Tuscaloosa?? Priceless!!

    Excellent food and service. The section of table is along the long center of the restaurant could use some art or something. I hope they continue keeping everything they can authentic look forward to visiting again.

    I’ve eaten at Sugo twice now and loved it both times. The staff is very attentive and the food is superb. The fresh mozzarella appetizer is my favorite.

    No flavor in the pasta sauce. The chicken was dry. Very over priced for the type of food. The tables and chairs need to be replaced.
