Nestled in the heart of Sandy Hook at 105 Church Hill Road lies Sugo Gastrobar, a restaurant that offers rich and flavorful modern Italian cuisine with a contemporary twist. From brick oven charred pizzas and fresh homemade pasta to savory desserts and a large selection of wine and specialty cocktails, Sugo has something for everyone. The restaurant features a sleek and modern New York aesthetic; its dark wood furniture and gray walls brightened by splashes of gold creating a cozy atmosphere for guests as they sit and dine.

This also extends to what Sugo’s primary owner Enrique “Ricky” Rosario calls the restaurant’s focal point: its bar. Right from when guests walk in, they’re greeted by a large, custom-made bar that curves all the way up to the ceiling; its shelves illuminated by a soft amber light and completely lined with bottles.
