Zugo's Cafe Celebrates Their Grand Reopening This Weekend With New Look and Menu

Zugo’s Cafe & Restaurant has been serving the city of Sierra Madre and the greater Pasadena area almost 10 years. After a small hiatus, owners of Zugo’s have brought in Chef Anthony Bar to create a fresh new menu with a seasonal approach. Chef Anthony is utilizing French techniques while staying true to the Italian flavors customers came to love at Zugo’s for many years.

Zugo’s will be adding a delicious portfolio of local craft beer as well as a wine list comprised of premier California, French and Italian wines. Along with a Champagne brunch on weekends, Zugo’s will be offering parties of 10 or more that reserve a table Monday through Wednesday, a complimentary bottle of Champagne.

Below is a sample menu as Chef Anthony will be testing out new dishes and adding them to the menu periodically throughout the first few weeks.
