Excellent food. Served was exceptional
We had a 3 office Christmas party (13 people) at Sugo on Surrey. The food was great. Our server was spectacular. We were all so impressed with Sugo being able to offer a full menu to a table of 13, get everything right and provide better service than I often do at other restaurants with a table of 2 or 4. Exceptional experience.
Beautiful interior and very good service. The salads were a generous portion. My beet and goat cheese salad was rather bland but the ravioli was very tasty and made up for my salad disappointed. Deserts are also a generous size and very good.
Dinner
Great service and easy conversation with the staff. Loved all the artwork in each room. I also loved the amount of cocktail choices and the inventive twists to some of the classics. We loved the seafood dip and the brushetta. I only took off one star because we were sat in the back and froze all evening. The cold air was blasting on us. As well, I ordered the butternut squash ravioli and found it a bit bland. The goat cheese and pesto was delicious but there wasn't enough of it to make up for the weak ravioli/sauce combo. Definitely happy with the portion size though! Lots of parking behind the restaurant!
Food excellent, do not sit near ac it was very noisy apart from that Would highly recommend.
Great patio set up and food was great! Recommend trying the Cerne Pizza and seafood pasta!
I was blown away by the polenta fries.
New favorite place for date night! Food was amazing, portions where large and the atmosphere was excellent. The smoked old-fashioned was one of the best I've ever had as well. Looking forward to next time!
Wide variety of mains (including vegan) and delicious desserts! Great service
Dinner for 10. Bar service prior to meal with John was fantastic. Offered both conversation and back ground on specific local beers on tap. Dinner service with Lynne was attentive and on time. Food was exceptional, as well wine list. I would remecomed in a heart beat. Thanks for the great night. R I
Great Italian food.... Staff is great and the owner Alex is top notch!
Amazing food and staff are always so friendly and accommodating. My family and I ordered from here a few times during quarantine and the process was seamless.
Pretentious and lacks quality. If you don't know what good food is then you'll like this place. If you know what good food is, you won't find it here.
Two of our party of four had been to Sugo previously. We started with glasses of wine from there somewhat limited but still very good wine by the glass list. We ordered bruschetta to share which was more than enough for the four of us. Two of our party ordered the pesto pizza, one ordered the seafood risotto and the final member ordered butternut squash ravioli. All dishes were excellent. For dessert we ordered two portions of panettone bread pudding with both ice cream and whipped cream. More food then we truly needed but it was still delicious. The service was also excellent.
We really enjoyed our dinner at Sugo on Surrey. Great food and wonderful atmosphere. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. The risotto was incredible. I highly recommend Sugo.
Noisy, as hell. Good food.
I came here to celebrate my wife's birthday on Saturday January 26. Made reservations for 5pm. Had some apps both of which were delicious, two salads the tritatta was excellent the Ceasar was nothing to write home about. The mains risotto and linguine were excellent as was the dessert. Service was great. Very friendly and attentive. Portions were excellent and price more than fair for what you got. Would definitely recommend and come back again. Worth the drive. What WAS odd was that even though they asked if we were celebrating anything special when I made the reservations they never acknowledged it the whole time we were there.
Great atmosphere and even better food. We love the red Ruffino Chianti for wine
Excellent food and service here. Everything was delicious, fresh and perfectly flavored. Seriously wonderful food! Our server was very helpful and accommodating as well!
Had a great experience here. Fast service. Nice setting. Food was served quick. Pasta was spot on!
Very yummy! Atmosphere is very welcoming. Bright and quaint with art from the families personal collection of photographs and local photographer's. I had the mussels and freits. Can't wait to go back for the shrimp pasta!
Great service and atmosphere
11/10 love it!
Great restaurant with a menue that will give a lot of options for Italian food lovers. The taste, service and price was exceptional. I would recommend this eatery. Thank you for a great experience.
Great place. Food and service was excellent.
Nice homely place. Great food and Great service. I find the location pretty quaint and nice too!
Take out
Nice spot for lunch or dinner. Had the Lobster Mac special and was very good. First time had the Seafood Risotto. Great job on the Risotto. Bar features many local spirits. Nice to see.
Incredible restaurant. From the atmosphere to the presentation of the food and everything in between, five stars. I had the salmon with the sun dried pesto and I'm in awe. The food presentation was clean and eye catching, I was starving just looking at my food! My salmon was cook to perfection, as was my wifes' ribeye steak! The sides, roasted vegetables and quinoa was delicious and perfectly seasoned. Lovely decor, great artwork on the walls and the dishware was cool! My #1 recommendation... GET THE BRUSCHETTA!
I originally came to this establishment because I'm interested in the Southern Ute Grassroots Organization. I quickly found out that this was a restaurant with really good food. Some might call it 'Classical Italian', but I just called it Italian food. I probably won't be back here for quite some time since I live in Ottawa and I'm usually taking the bus, and there are no OC Transpo buses that come this far.
Meh. Although the atmosphere is wonderful - despite being loud - the food really isn't exciting. Guelph and the surrounding area has options for pasta and pizza. The menu offers standard fare - if you like to try new, adventurous foods,this isn't the place to eat. The popette pizza was bland despite a list of delicious looking ingredients. Our server did fine, but the food took a long time although we all had pizza and pasta. All told we were there for two and a half hours
Great food good service friendly atmosphere!
Amazing food, superb service. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a great dinning experience
Best pizza in town. Came here with my girlfriend and we both ordered pizza. Bar none the best pizza around! Great services as well.
Excellent service and very delicious food!
We tried this for the first time yesterday . Absolutely amazing food!!! Portion sizes are big . You can definitely tell the person who cooks the food cares ! Thank you we will definitely be ordering again soon .
So many delicious options to choose from. The food was fresh, hot and delicious. Lots of gluten free and vegan options available as well for those who want it. I really enjoyed my pizza and the truffle chicken penne is amazing. Adorable little spot and great decor. The building is old and unique! Owners are kind and so personable. And the service was fantastic. Love it here!!!
Food is incredible - staff are super nice and give a fine dining experience like nothing i've experienced in Guelph. I'd take anyone here that gave me a reason to eat there again. Vegan menu is also killer.
LOVE this place. Their service and food is amazing. Their pizza dough is absolutely delicious and you have to try the butternut squash ravioli. Definitely one of the best Italian restaurants in Guelph.
This is hands down one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. The food is delicious, filling, and great quality! I would suggest you leave room for dessert. Their dessert selection is amazing!
I love the location and the building is beautiful! That being said... It was so loud that my friend and I had to yell to hear our conversations. Also, the portions are MASSIVE. Like...the appetizer salad was basically an entire meal. Then, our entrees came out and they were just as big. The food and presentations looked nice, but the taste wasn't anything special. We got free desserts (again, so huge) but nothing 'wowed' us. My opinion is to cut WAY back on portions and focus on the taste. We were a bit let down because from the outside, it looks like a quaint spot to enjoy some delicious food, but we ended up paying a ton of money for okay food and most of it had to be thrown out because it was ridiculously too much food.
Beautiful food, amazing people, adorable space. Love this place!
Cozy atmosphere ... Great menu and awesome local beer selection!!
Absolutely incredible. My family and I had takeout from here tonight and purchased the family meal deal along side a neo-margharita pizza. Everything was fresh and tasted amazing, not mention the value for the massive serving sizes! The service was extremely friendly and accommodated all of our requests. Sugo - we will be back! You have our full support.
Amazing food, atmosphere and service!
Delicious food. Our corner of the restaurant was a bit cold, and the light flickered throughout the meal, but the food and service were great.
We went to Sugo on Surrey last night and we had the best experience. The servers were amazing and very friendly. We started with the antipasto and it was huge and amazing. We also ordered the crab dip that comes with deep fried homemade pizza dough that was out of this world. For our mains we ordered gnocchi and eggplant parmesan. The servings are fairly large and so flavorful. The Toccalinos will be back with our friends and family and we even talked about having our engagement party there!!!! Thank you for the great experience. See you all soon!!!
Great atmosphere. Food so so. Huge portions
We went for dinner in a group of 4 on a Wednesday night. We had the salmon chowder, the calamari and the meatballs to start. For our mains, we had chicken parm, seafood risotto, seafood linguine and butternut squash ravioli. Pros: - The salmon chowder had a nice flavour to it, not enough salmon in it but the flavour and portion size was great - The calamari came with a really good lemon caper aioli that was delicious, calamari could have been crispier - The portion sizes of the appetizers and mains were good - The meatballs were really good, well flavoured and good portion size - Seafood risotto was overcooked BUT the flavour was really good and they were receptive to feedback, offered a free desert (tiramisu cheesecake which was delightful) - Chicken parm was a good portion - Seafood linguine was also delicious - Portion sizes and prices for portions was great value Cons: - The parmesan cheese SHOULD be freshly grated we thought, would have enhanced it but instead it was a powdery parmesan to garnish - The cream sauce could have used a bit more salt Overall, the restaurant was a really nice setting, really good service, awesome portion sizes and prices for portion sizes. Drinks were reasonably priced and there was a lot of effort obviously put into a menu with lots of variety and different tastes. Would go again.
Great addition to the Guelph restaurant scene. Went here with for dinner and got the Cajun shrimp papperdelle which was perfectly seasoned and portioned. The restaurant is in a 100+ year stone home which has some nice ambiance and character. Wide selection of local beers on tap. We will be back once they open up their rooftop patio in the summer.
Maybe it was just an off night, but I was quite underwhelmed. Appetisers were okay - nothing to write home about - also no complaints, but my main (Chicken Parmesan) was served with cold brussel sprouts and overcooked pasta with under-seasoned sauce. One dining companion's risotto was crunchy - not al dente but actually crunchy. That being said the lamb shank was apparently very tender though under-seasoned and again served with cold brussel sprouts.
Covid update: Sugo's delivery and pickup are some of the best I've seen. You do need to order early, but they do a great job with timing as a result! Would highly recommend their pizzas. Loved dinner here! The food is good, the atmosphere comfortable and staff friendly.
Stone walls, clean lines, well considered taps, great food. Three courses of deliciousness.
So glad they have reopened. One of my favorite places to eat in Guelph. Always a hard decision on what to order because everything looks so good. Felt very safe in the social distance reality.
Pizza, Spaghetti & Meatballs and chicken wings all to die for! This place is legit.
Excellent service, delicious meal, really lovely atmosphere & decor, highly recommend!
First time dining at Sugo on Surrey and I would highly recommend this restaurant. Coming from an Italian background the food reminded me exactly of my Nonna’s cooking growing up, especially the Meatballs and Polenta. Our server was extremely friendly and knowledgeable as well. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for the true Italian taste as it brought me back to childhood memories. Sugo far exceeded my expectations as I am usually quite critical of Authentic Italian food. We will be back for our next special occasion.
Dine in
Food was fantastic, will definately come back!
Food was excellent and the service was even better. Cannot recommend enough
Service
The excellent service is only rivalled by the food at Sugo on Surrey. We had a really nice evening. Our compliments to the owner, staff and chefs. We will be back!
Beautiful and quaint interior. Impressed by the ambience, which was improved by the quality of dishware. Ordered a Mediterranean pizza. A generous portion size, fresh ingredients, and beautiful presentation. The flavour and quality is what stood out. I left thoroughly impressed.
Food was phenomenal here, service was excellent as per usual when being served by Andrea. The only down falls were the drinks were a bit small, but that's just me and wifey being a lushes. Will be going back with friends and family! #yum #sugo #guelph #supportlocal
Wasn't impressed considering the hype around the restaurant. I was so dissapointed I'm going back this week because something had to be wrong. Good service and excellent atmosphere.
Good quality food and value for the pasta special!
Incredible food Incredible service!!!
I've been here a few times now, and each time exceeds the last. The food is so fresh and flavourful, the staff are friendly and efficient, the ambiance is delightful. Can't wait to go back!
Best restaurant in Guelph 100%!!! Amazing hostesses! Service is the best I’ve had anywhere in Guelph! Food is absolutely delicious!
Really great vibes, good food, friendly staff :).
I can't find the right words to define how amazing the place was, good service and absoluty wonderful food. I takeout tonight i purchased the Calamari Fritti with a spicy touch(i loved) , also the tártar sauce is special and the Caprese Salad is soo fresh. For sure all with a beer from Royal City.
Best meal I've had in a very long time. Less expensive than I was expecting. Outstanding quality and service. Check out this hidden gem in Guelph.
Last night, we had our staff Christmas dinner here. It was such an enjoyable time! We sat at the bar and waited for our table, the bartender, Jon, was knowledgeable and friendly. Alex, the owner and Mike, manager, were checking in on us and let us know our table was about a 15 minute wait, and that we would be seated as soon as the party cleared. After we were seated, our served came and answered questions about the menu. She was attentive and really wonderful. The appetizers came out almost right away, and very tasty! Then the entrees came out and they were even better. Portions were great, and the quality was top knotch. We didn’t venture into dessert because we were full, but everything sounded delicious! We will definitely be back. Thank you Sugo on Surrey for hosting our big group last night, we truly appreciate the amazing service and the love and care that went into our dinner. We will definitely be back for more!
Food was excellent and service was excellent too. We had the crab dip for an app, which was a generous size. We both had pizzas and they were without a doubt the best pizza we have had in a LONG time. They have absolutely perfected the dough/crust. We will definitely be back.
Went there for dinner last Friday with my boyfriend. Lovely atmosphere and our server Micky was great and extremely helpful!
Absolutely amazing food and service. They really care about your experience.
Sugo should be included in the wonders of the world list.
We were there celebrating 2 sisters Birthday. The food was excellent as was the service. the chicken parm was exquisite as was the veal scallopini. We'll be back
Finally had my Chicken Parm & it was superb! My hubby had the steak & thoroughly enjoyed.
Excellent - we ordered 2 family dinners (1 chicken parm, 1 veal) with contact-free pick up, and it was ready right on time. The portions were very generous, everything was fresh and hot, and we still have plenty left over. Would recommend!
Great tasting food
Dinner
The food here is phenomenal. The flavours are complex and everything is perfectly seasoned. I crave their pastas on a weekly basis! Every time we go to eat at the restaurant or to pick up take out, the service is also outstanding. On top of all this, the kitchen is very accommodating and knowledgable about food allergies.
Great food and amazing customer service. First time ordering and will definitely go back!! You all should try
Great new spot! Great food, a bit cramped but understandably so during opening weenend. Keep up the great work!
Good restaurant
Great meal at Sugo! Great spot for a date night or another celebration. We had the arancini, spaghetti and meatballs and chicken Parm. All were delicious and we'll definitely be back!
Food was fantastic! The service and environment was great! Would go again and would recommend :)
Normally a good time had here. This week there was a customer sitting at the bar drinking alone and chatting with the wait staff. He took/made a call on his phone and the volume on the phone was very loud with a sick child in the background. It went on and on and on and disturbed our conversation. We asked the waitress over and told her it was disruptive. She did not agree and was dismissive of our concerns. It ruined our evening.
Absolutely amazing experience!!! The food was to die for...generous portions and everything was delicious!!! We will definitely be back!!
Fantastic place we will be back this is our new favorite dining out location Food was amazing service perfect couldn't ask for more
Visited for lunch, and despite it being quite busy we were served quickly with delicious food. The bruschetta is a personal favourite, and the mains were very good as well. The atmosphere is very nice and feels very well put together.
Lovely restaurant in a beautiful setting. The apps were huge and tasty, and our entrees were also large and tasted home-made. Our server was very helpful; he forgot one of our apps but was very apologetic. The drinks are unique. Four stars and we had to wait a long time for our drinks and apps and it was not overly busy, but everything was worth the wait. We did not have room for dessert but it looked lovely. Will return to try more of the meal items!
Amazing restaurant, great food and service, very cozy place, definitely recommend ????
Delicious food and great ambience. Servers were very friendly! We got the penne and thai pizza, followed by the olive oil cake special. Everything seriously exceeded our expectations and prices were very reasonable. Already recommending it to friends, and can't wait to go back
All of the food I tried was delicious!! Great atmosphere, looking forward to going back!!
Excellent Food !
Very tasty food in a classy atmosphere. Love the patio! Delicious pasta and cocktails
The food was outstanding, presented beautifully. The staff were friendly and the restaurant was light filled and beautiful, full of history with exposed stone walls and beams.
Nice atmosphere and the food was really good!
I was @Sugo on Surrey for their Mothers Day Special and the other 2 Mothers at my table had an amazing brunch as well. Spot on taste, presentation and speed of service considering the restaurant was packed! Enjoyed the complimentary mimosa as well as the lovely flower given to all the moms. Of course will be back for more delicious food.
Service friendly and informative re: menu choices; lots of flexibility due to food allergies and/or preferences; beautifully-presented and delicious food; cozy ambience. We'll be back!
My boyfriend and I went for date night on Saturday. Food was awesome, service was great and we loved the atmosphere.
What a great place. Fresh ingredients, attentive service and exactly what we were looking for before an evening out enjoying Guelph. We enjoyed the seafood linguine (not pictured), the Cajun Crab Dip, a Caesar and the Arancini. All classic yet modern, and packed with flavour.
Awsome
Absolutely delicious! Great spot and value for the food was amazing. Wish we'd gone sooner. Definitely be return patrons.
Yup. This is upscale. Food is absolutely fantastic. No brainer for a date place or special occasion. Decor is tastefully minimalist. Service was excellent.
Dinner with friends here this week. Beautiful decor inside. Very inviting with a nice bar area. We had bruschetta to share. It was ample and for three and delicious! I had the penne with chicken and truffle oil served hot and delicious. We then shared the bread (panettone) pudding for dessert - very good. Service was great! Highly recommend.
We've been meaning to go all year and when we finally did, everything was exactly what I expected; 5 stars. Service was fantastic - prompt, professional, and familiar - thanks Andrea! Food was incredible and great wine too. We wanted everything on the menu, and between the 6 of us, we tried our best to sample everything and were not disappointed. Thanks again - looking forward to coming back!
Our waitress, Sarah was phenomenal. She truly made the experience incredibly enjoyable. The butternut squash ravioli was unreal, felt like I was in Italy while I was there. Highly recommend!!
Good food, good service, will be back again!
Starting where we ended: a lemon sorbet that was as close to perfection as we could imagine - the balance between tartness and sweetness, no ice crystals or clumping. A brownie served shimmering as if it was starring on a food network program. They were an exclamation point to a set of show stopping main course dishes. A Margherita pizza that would champion the victor in our month long search in southern Italy last year. And a seafood risotto that transports you back to one of the many heavenly eateries there.
What a lovely restaurant, beautiful food, full if flavours and well presented, the staff were so welcoming, excellent all round.
Delicious meal!
Great food. Quick lunch. The beer list is fantastic
A cute, hidden gem in Guelph. The setting is soft and perfect for a cheeky date or just a dessert! The staff and service are also exceptional. Make sure to book ahead, as it's usually packed!
Incredible
Cozy, fun atmosphere in the bar. The dining area (the other half of the building) looked great. Our server (he was one of the bartenders) was attentive and knowledgeable. Pappardelle and Squash Ravioli were superb mains and the bread pudding dessert was a hit with our table. We can't wait to go again !!
Wonderful dining experience! Tasty food, attentive service and beautiful surroundings.
We had our first (of many to come) experiences last night! Service was amazing, the food was beautifully presented, portions were filling, and the atmosphere was awesome! The staff was super attentive, and very polite! We had a wonderful dining experience and I can’t wait to come back. Thank you Alex, Mike and staff for hosting us last night, we are raving about Sugo. I even bought my parents a gift card for Christmas, I hope they bring me haha!
Had a fantastic anniversary dinner here. Pizza was great and staff were friendly and attentive. Highly recommend for a nice date night.
Perfection
Good service, good food, and Andrea was a great waitress!
Best Italian Restaurant ever! Lovely place and lovely staff. Great portions and cant wait to dine here again:)
The crab dip is amazing, the whole experience was wonderful! Food is delicious
Certainly not the culinary experience I was expecting. Soggy calamari, pasty risotto that literally I could form a sculpture with, the proteins in that dish and the spaghetti where pretty meager, certainly not worth the $24+ per dish price tag. I would be hard pressed to go back as I've dined in far better Italian restaurants in the region. Maybe they had a different chef that night or were just running out of food, but the value and flavour just weren't there for me.
Had a wonderful New Years Eve dinner at Sugo on Surrey with my family - was our first time. The food was absolutely amazing, and the service was even better. Our server was very attentive, and checked back with our table frequently. Highly recommend going to this restaurant for a nice meal - way better than the Keg, but similar price.
The place was too busy, and too loud to be appreciated, food was good, not great. Our server tried hard, but was too busy to really give a fine dining experience. Not sure if I'll try Sugo again.
Excellent! Food and service outstanding.
First impressions count! Enjoyed dinner with friends this evening at Sugo on Surrey in downtown Guelph. GO THERE Sumptuous flavourful food ???? Cozy, warm atmosphere on the top floor dining space. 18 stairs up, I’m a counter, btw. Friendly & efficient service. Great date night location in my opinion. Already looking forward to dining outside next summer. And, if you’re having takeout, pick up is around back.
Amazing food and atmosphere, I would highly recommend this place. I believe our servers name was John, thank you for the great service.
Food was AMAZING and the service was exceptional! Calm quiet clean environment.
Great food , great service, great food. John was our waiter and is my new standard for exceptional service. I only wish we knew if this place earlier!!
One of the best, if not THE best place to go out for lunch or dinner in Guelph. Great atmosphere, awesome building and I'm also a huge fan of the artwork throughout the restaurant. They have great promotions, great staff, and great food. Can't speak highly enough about this place.
Dine in
An italian restaurant hidden on Surrey Street. Service, food and atmosphere were all top notch. I would definitely return.
Tempted to give less stars, but I've only been once and it was a busy Friday night and we were a group of 6, so maybe there were just having a bad day. My partner ordered a martini, it came with no olives. My friends ordered the clams with the parmesan truffle fries. The fries came with no parmesan or seasoning at all, the waitress gaslight us a bit about it - I know when friend have no salt at all and can certainly see when it has no parmesan on it. But did bring us new fries in the end and they were fine. We had Calamari which was nice. I had the lamb shank main in the shank itself was very nice, but it was served with seasonal vegetables which at the time are brussel sprouts which were cold. My partner had the chicken parm which came with spaghetti side which was also cold. My friend had the risotto which was crunchy.
We are new to the Guelph area and Sugo on Surrey came as a recommendation by a friend. We were so impressed with our take out. The crab dip is unreal and I loved the butternut squash ravioli. I am drooling just thinking about it. The pizzas we got were great as well. We cannot wait to order again!
Delicious. Authentic. Beautiful

Beautiful heritage building, great food, great atmosphere, service was excellent, can't wait to go back for more!
Yum
Bruschetta was really great. Service was attentive and friendly. We'll definitely be back.
Very nice

Best pasta dishes we've had in ages... thoughtful service, nice cocktails.. fireplaces don't hurt the ambiance. Great spot for a winter dinner. Plus - lots of parking
Great service
Placed a pick up order from here, and will certainly do it again. Well packaged, pasta was perfect al dente, portions were generous and everything tasted delicious. Highly recommend any of their pastas and salads. Great local business, friendly service.
One word....delicious!
Pizza yum
The seafood risotto is very good
Service
My fiancé and I tried for the 1st time on Saturday evening and have nothing but good things to say about this place! We tried the striploin, artic char, 2 apps and the tiramisu. I believe this is the best restaurant currently in Guelph and I don't say that lightly. Hope to be back soon!
Great spot with excellent food
Delicious food, great atmosphere! Definitely will be back.
Service and atmosphere was great. Unfortunately, I came in expecting true Italian cuisine and was disappointed. The food wasn’t bad, but the look and taste has minimal resemblance to authentic Italian cooking. If this is what you’re looking for, I believe La Cucina remains the only place in Guelph to find it
Great food, service and ambiance. Highly recommended!
Food is excellent!
Beautiful atmosphere, great service, delicious food.
Service
Great food. Good service. Fantastic wine and spirits list. Good place for Italian in Guelph. Try the charcuterie, it's a must! Will be back for sure.
Hidden Gem of Guelph! I had never heard of Sugo on Surrey, but i was pleasantly surprised by the environment, the service, and the food. Would recommend!
Great atmosphere and food. The food came hot and fast, we loved it . Out server Andrea was knowledgeable and extremely nice .
I love this place so much! They have the best bruschetta I've ever had and the meatballs are to die for. I've eaten here several times and my meal is always wonder. Highly recommend!
Pizza was great paired with some local beer!
Food service were great. Beautiful old restored home.
Ok decor food is uneven. Service is good. Wine list is just ok
Great staff and food, super clean and fashionable. Easy place to chill
Great food and atmosphere! Welcome addition to Guelph. Mussels were fresh and plentiful, ravioli and risotto were ????! The tiramisu cheesecake was the perfect end to a lovely meal! Highly recommend.
Trendy, lively and a bit noisy from all the chatter, wonderful and friendly servers, deliciously different food, and an extensive enticing menu makes Sugo on Surrey a place we intend to visit again and again. We shared a bruschetta, a pasta dish, and a mild sausage pizza. Totally delicious, but large enough that we brought close to half of it home.
Another wonderful meal tonight at Sugo. Thank you, Andrea, for great service. For this bread pudding junkie, the Butter Pecan Bread Pudding was a huge hit!
Had an awesome lunch here with my Mom! The staff was not only committed to great service, but also ensured the safety of their customers by following COVID-19 precautions. Highly respected!???????? 10/10 recommended????
Visited Sugo on Saturday night for my birthday. Convenient parking and lovely interior. I loved all of the artwork and stone. Our service was amazing, the food was delicious and the presentation was beautiful. Thank you “Mickey” for such a great experience.
Nice place for a special meal, we were there for our 26th wedding anniversary.
Great food and great atmosphere. Our server, Ashley was awesome. I ordered the chef special, a bacon wrapped pork tenderloin. Unfortunately the chef came to our table to inform me that they had run out of the special. So I ordered the tuscan chicken which was delicious. To my surprise the chef sent out 2 large slices of the pork tenderloin which were left over. It was amazing and the gesture was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Sugo on Surrey.
Great intimate location. Enjoyed the ambience, the waitstaff & the selections of both drinks & food. Perfect new hot spot.
Great place, I’ve been there twice. I love their food and service. Food were served fast.
Atmosphere good...cute design...nice bathrooms...my pasta was cold but tasted ok...service was good
Amazing dinner from appetizer to dessert!
Our take out last night was great. It’s a little hard to find the building in the dark (first timers!) but we managed and pick up was contactless. The food was still piping hot when we got home and the portions were huge. Ordered the Arancini, Tuscan Chicken Rigatoni and the seafood pasta. All in all a great take out experience!
Meal type
Great food, excellent service, lovely atmosphere.
Excellent food, great service and atmosphere. Will definitely be back!
Lovely atmosphere. Great food
Unpretentious fine dining - good food at a reasonable price. I was impressed that there are vegan options on an otherwise very meat-forward menu, to accommodate everyone. We've been three times so far and have had enjoyable experiences and good food each time.
Absolutely loved this restaurant! Booked it on a whim & was very impressed! I have allergies that can be difficult (dairy & wheat) and Sugo on Surrey did not disappoint, and my family who have diverse palettes also enjoyed . I will definitely be coming back!
Great food and service. We were both very happy. Would go back and recomend it.
Excellent food. Everything we ordered was delicious.
My wife and I did take out tonight of their chicken Parmesan with Caesar salad and it was an amazing meal. the tomato sauce is sweet, the food was prepared beautifully, portions were very large. definitely looking forward to visiting the restaurant when we can eat in. In the meantime more take-out will be happening.
Service
Delicious food. Courteous friendly staff. Can't wait to go back.
Fantastic and attentive service, delicious food, and great beverage selection! We sat in the bar area at a high top table and enjoyed the ambiance. We had the calamari fritti to start, and it was crispy, fresh, and flavourful. My partner ordered the veal and I ordered chicken parmigiana. His dinner was nice, but I definitely picked the winner. It was so, SO good -- highly recommended! Thanks for a great evening! We'll certainly be coming back soon :)
Good food, attentive service, lovely art on the walls.
My wife and I and another couple ate dinner here yesterday evening. It was our first visit. The decor and atmosphere of the restaurant is great - nicely renovated old house on a quiet street, well lit, good separation of space. The staff were friendly. However, the service was spotty - even though the restaurant wasn't all that busy - a Wednesday evening. The server disappeared for long periods and seemed a little pushy when she did show up. I think her intentions were good. Its just that we seemed to having to fit her schedule. The food was very average. I had the seafood linguine. The pasta was over cooked and barely warm enough when it was served - seemed to me that it likely sat in the kitchen waiting to be served. The mussels around the bowl tasted great. The quantity of seafood in pasta mix seemed to be very limited as a $27 entree. My wife had the beet salad and calamari appetizers as a meal. She said it was ok but nothing special. One of friends had the risotto which the plating was bland and the other had the all-you-can-eat mussels. He had two servings with two different sauces which he said was good. The only problem was that when he was 2/3'rd through the first serving he ordered the second serving which took well over 20 minutes - too long - out of sink with the dinner. I think this restaurant has potential, but they really need to improve the food quality and be more attentive in service. I hope they are successful.
Second time there, excellent food and service and a beautifully renovated stone building - gorgeous inside!
Amazing food and atmosphere. Can't wait to come back soon and try something new!
Lovely venue and superb food. Very enjoyable.
Very disappointed with this restaurant. Had heard it was very good. I ordered the special, the veal. It was 2 large pieces just plopped on a pile of spaghetti with a few overdone vegetables. Far too much food and presentation was awful. Waitress was efficient but was harried and we felt it also. Not sure if I will give it a second chance , I expect better for the money I spent.
Excellent restaurant. Great people
This is now the best Italian restaurant I've ever been to. My husband and I recently went for my birthday. It's an old century like home converted into a cozy restuarant. The service was spectacular and the food blew my mind. My husband's tried their whiskey sour drink special. It was made with a special batch of whiskey from Grand Valley Distillery. He said it tasted just like key lime pie, he enjoyed every single drop. Started with the asiago crab dip and this was my favorite part of the meal, and I'm not a big seafood person but I'd eat this every day if I could. It was light but rich and the little dipping bread was so nice and fluffy. Sprinkled with fresh parmesan and parsley. Amazing. For our mains my husband had the veal and I had the truffle chicken penne. Usually I leave half to bring home but I finished it all and cleaned the plate with the piece of garlic toast. The veal came with beautiful little potatoes and perfectly cooked asparagus. The pasta for my main was cooked perfectly, wonderful sauce and the chicken was great. I think they might have seared it possibly and that added a great flavour. We finished off with tiramisu cheesecake made exclusively for the restaurant in the bakery next door. Tiramisu isn't my first dessert choice but this was so good. It didn't have a super strong boozy taste. Loved it. Our server was laid back and friendly but very professional. She knew everything about the menu and offered her suggestions. Gentleman from the kitchen was bringing out food and clearing plates as he came back. Super friendly and chill staff. There seemed to be a lot of regular customers there. The prices are a bit high but it's so worth every penny. The portions were decent and the food was so rich and tasty. We can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu. Thank you so much!
Sugo On Surrey offers amazing food and service with a smile! I had the crab dip and seafood pan roast and my husband had the spaghetti & meatballs. Everything was great, but the crab dip was next level and I still think about it at least 5 times a day. I highly recommend Sugo for anyone wanting great quality, delicious, and beautifully presented food. A total flavour explosion!
Great food and service! Things was hot and fresh. The banana bread pudding is a must try!
Every meal cooked to perfection! Excellent waitress.If you are over 80, as two of us were, you might want to request eating on the main floor!
The burger was amazing! Apparently they just added it to the menu. It was well-crafted, and full of a variety of flavours. The melting cheese was a nice touch. The presentation is top-notch. The staff is friendly. The vibe is a nice business casual.
Such a great spot! Food is fantastic, atmosphere is awesome and the service is really good!! Would highly recommend and can't wait to go back!! Make sure you try the crab dip!!
Great food. Nice people
We had the most delicious food and brilliant service for our office Holiday party. All of the meals that we ordered were absolutely delish!
Delicious food, reasonably priced, and very friendly staff!
Excellent service, delicious top quality food and wonderful ambiance. Our waitress Sam was fantastic. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
Food was amazing drinks were great good price
Delicious as always!
We started with Mussels which were the biggest disappointment, they came with frites which was nice but the mussels themselves were very small and somewhat fishy tasting. Interestingly, we also ordered seafood linguine and the mussel that came with it were much better, larger and fresh tasting. The home made pasta was a real treat as well. We also had one of their pizzas and it was very good with fresh ingredients and nice crust. I held back on a my rating a bit due to the starter. The atmosphere was nice and not very crowded due to Covid, so was a pleasant intimate dining experience. Definitely very much worth a visit
I dined there for the first time with my friend tonight (her second). We ordered the bruschetta - amazing and it could have filled us for dinner the portion was massive! (Especially compared to others') She ordered the pollo, and I ordered the veal scallopini. I read one person's review saying it was expensive for the portion size. Portion size was normal and in most cases plentiful!!! Our meals were delicious! There are so many things we want to try it'll be hard to repeat the same order! Our server was so attentive and she had so many tables she was serving at once. We usually never order appetizers or dessert, but we couldn't resist tonight. Our desserts were amazing!!! The brownie and ice cream were to die for, and the mousse was sooooo rich and flavourful! Needless to say, I will be back again. My friend is actually going tomorrow! Lol
everybody are kindly
You must try lobster w black bean sauce and ginger & green onion
Really great food in a cozy atmosphere. Definitely check it out if you havn't
We ordered the Family deal for dinner last night for date night with 2 if our friends. It was delicious . It was very generous on the portions and a great night was had by all 4 of us compliments to the chef.
Dinner
Wonderful dining experience from decor, employees and fabulous food ( we had the mussels as an appetizer, followed by a seafood pizza...Delish) I highly recommend paying a visit to this wonderful restaurant.
Great service, atmosphere and food. My favourite place in Guelph.
I was excited to visit this restaurant. A friend had said that he had a very good meal there and he was the one I was taking to dinner. It’s beautifully decorated with numerous paintings and the original stone walls protruding, kudos, to the decorators. This was the best part of the evening. Unfortunately, the food was tasteless. I had a ginger ale as my drink. My request for a little ice was ignored, it came with a ton of the stuff. I removed the ice to find about two ounces of tasteless brown water. My very pretty and admittedly large caesar salad had an abundance of Parmigiano but little or no taste. If there was garlic in it (a fav flavour of mine) I think they merely waved a clove of the stuff over the top. A large piece of pancetta was tastefully placed on top. Tasteless would have been a better adjective. I think it was cooked a week previously and left on a shelf somewhere. My main included a nice combination and amount of crisp-tender vegetables. My supreme of chicken was misnamed as there was nothing supreme about it. The cheese stuffing was again flavourless and the quarter chicken was dry. On to the desert, a tiramisu, again a personal favourite of mine. It was a puddle of nothing. Not a touch of the flavour of the espresso on ladyfingers. It was again, I think made last week when they did that pancetta. I could have used a straw to drink it rather than the provided spoon. This was meant as a treat for my guest who had done a great act of kindness for me. He said he enjoyed his meal. I hope it was more than his attempt to be polite. Sigh, another culinary write off.
A Awesome!!!
First time visiting. Great lunch. Great service. Beautiful ambiance.
Take out game is on point. Great food, great customer service. Can’t wait to try dining inside!
Great meal and service!
The food was very yummy, helpful also because I got lost on my way, and the lovely gentlemen working there helped me get there to get my food!
Mediterranean pizza & beet walnut salad. Nice atmosphere. Interesting menu. Specials certain dates. Worth repeat visits.
Very good experience
Wonderful service and fantastic food. Highly recommend this restaurant.
Wonderful! We just ordered the Chicken Parm. Family meal followed by an amazing peanut butter cheesecake- and it was wonderful. Excellent quality. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. They even did curbside delivery. It was on time and hot.
Great experience at Sugo. Exactly what downtown Guelph needs, intimate, cozy, great menu, great wine selection! Bar service was A+. New go-to spot.
Phenomenal food and service!
Great food and nice atmosphere
We just went to Sugo for the first time and we were so happy with the whole experience. Our server was energetic and helpful. We had the vegan pizza (jackfruit, bbq sauce, veggies, green goddess cheese) and it was soooo tasty. We would highly recommend this place! The rest of the menu looked awesome as well :) we'll be back for sure.
Great service, such a cute and cosy atmosphere, food is delicious.
Good experience!
This place is absolutely amazing! The service, food, atmosphere nothing but AMAZING! It's honestly the best place in Guelph. We've been at least 5 times now and every time is better then the last. Thanks for being awesome guys! We will be back....many more times!
Dine in
Absolutely amazing food, service, and environment! Was over the moon impressed with the kindness and time our waitress Micky took for us. Would (and will) recommend to anyone looking for a nice night out!
Local hidden gem. Delicious Italian food and wonderful service.
Excellent service and food and had a fabulous evening! ????
-John served us great. Very personable and informative! -The food tasted great and fairly priced. -The mussels, meatballs, parpadelle, and margahita pizza, and tiramisu cheese cake, were delightful. -My only concerns came from: the delivery of our mains while I was still eating my appetizers, with small tables this was a problem. Next a cocktail I really enjoyed had it’s garnishing (thyme) loose and free-flowing through the drink, which led me always to be picking out leafs.
A serious gem in this city. Amazing management, very cute inside. The food is absolutely fantastic. This is the perfect place to go for date night.
Ordered touchless take out this evening. Ordered the Chicken Parmesan Dinner for 4 and it was delicious!
The food is always fresh and delightful, employees hands over excellent service. I like how neat it is and vibes. Would recommend to others.
Dinner
Excellent food and ambiance.
Top notch. 10/10 food Guelph neeeded a restaurant like this so badly. Highly highly recommend for great food and some wicked beer/wine selection
Six Stars.
Sugo was amazing! The staff and food were great. Highly recommend, great for any occasion. Best Italian food in Guelph!
I had dinner here on Friday night with with 3 other girlfriends. We all had a fantastic time. The servers were friendly, attentive and professional, the food was delicious, the menu wasn't large but had something for everyone. They have a good selection of beers on tap and a small but nice wine list. I will definitely be returning.
Beautifully restored stone building with tempting pasta, pizza and main options. Service and food were top notch!
What a fantastic experience - celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary here. Staff are friendly and caring. Will suggest options if you're having trouble deciding. Menu is diverse, plating was flawless......wish I had taken a picture of the seafood risotto. Its a must have! Portions are large. Love the ambiance. I just can't say enough! Its a must if looking for great food and a relaxing atmosphere!
Love It. Homemade Italian. Wonderful atmosphere. Great staff! We will be back.
Great food, good value, fun atmosphere. We had a great time.
Our New Year's Eve was very nice. Food was delicious. The red wine was cold, though, and I should have felt the bottle before it being opened...my miss. Otherwise, a nice experience.
Great spot!!
The service was great. The food was delicious. We will definitely go back
Alex and his staff are very attentive. Great service. The food was flavorful and cooked perfectly . I would recommend this new gem in guelph to anyone.
Delicious food. Cosy atmosphere. Excellent service. Can't wait to come back!
Little pricey portion-wise, the food was excellent and rich. Staff and atmosphere was delightful
Beautiful and inviting .... service and food exceptional....
Brushetta was very good. The meatball sandwich was a bit light on meatballs but tasted great.
Was just ok. Our first visit and I was excited to try another Italian option in the city. The restaurant is attractive and nicely laid out. Our server was pleasant and efficient. The food however was a little disappointing. Appetizers: The caesar salad was crisp and not over-dressed but the dressing was lackluster and tasted of mayonnaise. I couldn't wait to try the meatballs on polenta but the meatballs were dense and dry. The polenta had an unpleasant grainy texture the tomato sauce (Sugo tomato?) was meh. The calamari was good. Tender and fresh but the sauces were bland and unimaginative. Mains: The seafood risotto was the best entre at our table of 4 with nice flavour although the texture was gloopy. Risotto is a challenging dish to serve and should only be on the menu if you can nail it. The veal marsala seemed like it was served out of a steam table instead of cooked to order. The sauce was thick and floury. The butternut squash ravioli sounded amazing when described on the menu but was really average. It didn't deliver on the flavours that were promised. Finally the chicken parm. Another bland steam table delight that was no better than what you'd expect from a cafeteria. The desserts were ok but didn't seem like they were made on site. Overall I was really disappointed with the food. Everything was edible but uninspiring. We won't be in a hurry to return.
If you want real Italian food see Nona or Zia.. at least Nona has air conditioning.
Sugo on Surrey has become a staple for special occasions with my family. I bring my parents there every time they're in town (they demand it, to be honest) and it's my first thought for anniversaries and birthdays. The atmosphere in the restaurant is great, I love the staff and more recently their pick up options for the pandemic are both really well designed and also easy to use as a patron. More importantly THE FOOD. Words could not do it justice! Special love to the crab dip and pizza. Thanks to all the staff there for your continued talent and lovliness!
We ordered their take out dinner for 4. Chicken parm with veggies, spaghetti, garlic bread, and caesar salad. The food was ready at the pre arranged time in the insulated box in the parking lot. Everything exceeded our expectations! Delicious food. Large portions. Excellent value. We will definitely be returning to Sugo! Don't forget to tip them, as they don't ask when you order take-out
This is a great spot located in a converted house on Surrey Street in Guelph. The food is excellent!! Try the meatball appetizer as you get three large meatballs on a bed of pollenta ... great flavour with a lot of garlic. You can order a half sandwich with a side. The chicken parm is great as are the pizzas. Small warning - the parking lot is tiny. Be prepared to fight for street parking . Worth the visit and I would recommend this restaurant.
Food was delicious and the atmosphere was so lovely! Great service as well, will definitely be visiting again!
Always great food and great service! One of my new favourites in Guelph
Amazing food and amazing service!
Had the pleasure of dining at Sugo for lunch and had possibly the most delicious panini I have ever tasted in my life. Plus a fantastic side caesar. My daughter got chicken fingers and fries and they were good too! My company was impressed with her food as well. I can't wait to go back and try some pizza or pasta, which they are known for an excel at!
Great little gem in Guelph. You must go! Al and Marisa (and team) know how to treat their guests. We will be back!
First time ordering from here tonight and everything was DELICIOUS!! We will definitely be ordering again soon! Thank you for the great amazing dinner!
Excellent service and food... Will definitely be returning in the future
Our favourite restaurant in town.
Great food, great atmosphere!
Great environment, Wine is very reasonable and good food
Great food
The food was excellent. I don't like raw tomatoes, but I could have eaten the entire bruschetta myself, and it was a generous size. The main courses were excellent as well. Very nice location, with great staff. Well definitely ready here again
Amazing food and staff is great. While we had a few issues during our meal (one of our pastas was under cooked and we happened to be the unlucky recipients of a piece of a scrub pad on one of our plates) these issues were expertly dealt with and both dishes were removed from the cost of the meal and replaced. Every restaurant will have issues like these but it is how they are dealt with that matters and the staffs response was exactly what it should have been. Will DEFINITELY be returning, cant wait to try more dishes! Flavour and presentation was impeccable!
A beautiful restaurant, the food is not only really great but it must be good value as it was busy midweek. Impeccable service.
Small restaurant with big flavours. Had the crab dip and butternut squash soup for apps and Risotto and Mediterranean pizza for supper. Had cocktails and specialty coffee for beverages. Server great and friendly. Food delivered in great time. Definitely recommend.
My husband and I have been drying to try sugo and figured why not splurge for our “mini-moon” since our honeymoon was cancelled due to Covid. WOW it did not disappoint and was more than worth the wait. Our food was served quickly and the taste was spectacular. Not only was the food delicious but you could just tell it was made with the finest ingredients. I would 100% recommend sugo to anyone and it is definitely worth the money.
Fantastic little Italian restaurant. Great customer service, serving sizes, and quality. We haven't been able to dine inside yet, but the takeout has been well enjoyed. The chicken parmesan is my go to and we loved the meatballs as well.
I've been here a couple times now, it's one of my favorite new restaurants in Guelph.
Great food and service!
The lunch was great. Potato soup and meatball sandwich was exquisite. Very tasty, filling and less expensive than expected. Will definitely be back as often as possible
Just enjoyed a fabulous New Years Eve dinner at Sugo on Surrey. Booked Sugo through 'open table' online. When we arrived at Sugo they could not find my reservation. Turns out I had booked "Sugo" n Georgia. I was alarmed- it was New Years Eve! The staff was so gracious and accomodating! They squeezed us in. The food was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere wonderful and the service impeccable. I can"t say enough about this place. The three of us each ordered completely different starters and mains and each of us raved about our food. They even had a gluten free brownie available for dessert which was amazing! Will definitely be returning very soon...
Meal type
Came here for a post Christmas/New Years date night and will definitely be back. The food was very rich and flavorful and the service was amazing. All the servers were friendly, welcoming and very attentive. We were in the lounge/bar area and its not your typical bar. It has a really nice cozy vibe, and was much quieter than the main dining area. Great location too
Not bad, decent food and decent atmosphere. When we got there we stood at the front door for over 5 minutes before anyone came to greet us. The pasta is not made in house and the portion could have fed a small army. If you want true Italian food in Guelph, I would go to La Cucina.
Loved it. The food and service was excellent. I had the chicken parm and the Caesar Salad. Both were great. Look forward to returning soon
Great atmosphere and food!
We were a large group of 13 and very loud. They accommodated us by putting us in a private room. That made us feel great as we didn't need to be hushed. The food was fabulous as always. Kudos to you and your staff. All the best for a great Holiday Season. See you soon.
Wonderful Italian restaurant. Great food, great drinks, beautiful ambience and fantastic staff. One of the best restaurants in Guelph!
My new favourite restaurant in Guelph!! Amazing service and fantastic food. Portions are very generous (ie you could probably share mist ifbthere appetizers and the salads. The food is full of flavour and not salty. Finally, it is quiet and easy to have a comfortable conversation (without shouting). And, I almost forgot...there is lots of parking. Will definitely be back.
Shared a salad and pizza and both were good - pizza crust a little soft and too much cheese. Atmosphere is great!
Omg the best pasta ever!!! I would go back anytime. Amazing
Definitely will be back!
Great food and service, beautiful venue. For prices. We'll be back.
It can be challenging to find really good vegan fine dining in Guelph, we were so happy with the Vegan options that Sugo had. Love the atmosphere, intimate but inclusive. The decor was inviting and our waitstaff was wonderful! Would love to see an expanded wine selection, but everything else was perfect!
Not one of our better experiences at this Resturant.
You food. Great service!
Very good food and cozy atmosphere.
We regularly eat Italian food and this was absolutely phenomenal. Not only was everything exceptionally fresh, perfectly cooked, and deliciously seasoned, but the owner was extremely generous and kind when we picked up our meal. I've never felt so well treated and well fed by restaurant. We will be coming here again and again and again. NOTE that we couldn't even wait to eat the pizza before taking a picture. The meatballs are also mindblowing.
A very nice, intimate Italian restaurant. It is based inside of a house, and so inevitably it is quite loud when we go. However, the atmosphere is amazing, and the food is incredibly delicious! The staff are very friendly too. A close-knit space.
Very good, will be returning
Great spaghetti and meatballs
Fantastic food, service and decoration. One of the best restaurants in the Region. Pizzas are phenomenal.
The pasta was fantastic, as was the service. Nice simple menu. I liked the beer and wine selection. Atmosphere is a good mix of contemporary and older exposed brick.
Amazing food, especially the pizza! And delicious vegan options too. Servers are knowledgeable on options, friendly, and professional. Great atmosphere and the owners are so kind! Great locally owned spot with a unique location. Highly recommend! Can't wait to visit again!
Delicious Food...... Great night !!!
