    Hippo Garlic Fries
    Samettria B.

    It was good. They didn't ask us the doneness of our meat which leads me to believe it's a premade patty. I could be wrong but I will try again and ask for medium doneness .This was my only problem. Our beef was well done which I'm not a fan of. However they do have a great selection of burgers. I tried the Texas chili burger and my husband had the Hawaiian burger. We felt the same way about the meat. The onion rings were panko breaded (mediocre) and the fries were the same. We also had wings. The wings are breaded. I had lemon pepper which was flavorful but they seemed to be premade wings as well. Prebattered wings but they were very crispy. We will go back and give it another try but I will be sure to be specific when ordering. It seems to be a pick up place. It's small in the inside and it was very cold in the place. I will not dine in next time. I'll do pick up. However the staff was very nice.

    #8 Hippo Texas Burger and regular fries
    Antho L.

    I've been to one other Hippo earlier last year and it was pretty good. That one was located adjacent to a gas station and was very sparse in ambience inside. This one is a lot nicer to dine in and was one the way to a get together I was invited to with some friends for snacks and karaoke. I was hungry so I decided to just eat here. It's my cheat day too from my keto diet so I was looking forward to the burger and fries. I went with the Texas Burger with regular fries. The burger itself is nice and hefty which I like. The taste was good with the jalapeños and really satisfied my burger craving. The fries were good too, freshly fried. Could tell they used real potatoes and nothing processed like other burger chains. I wanted some ranch dressing but was told it was $0.54 cents so I skipped it. I like this burger chain which is why I was glad to see it was on the way to the party. It's a good burger spot serving real food verses the fake food you get at McDonalds or other burger chains.

    Hippo burgers is a really good spot for Awesome burgers & delicious seasoned fries, this is their 3rd location that opened up near me thats a plus. one of my favorite menu items is the the Mexican burger which comes with jalapeños, bacon, cheese and a big juicy beef Patti on a nice toasted seeded roll which all compliments together well, I also love their garlic fries which are so delicious I have never had fries like that before I do recommend its a must. my wife favorite menu item is the hippo chicken sandwich which is another menu item thats a must, the chicken is very juicy and pairs well with side of sweet potato fries. they do have some good kids menu items like a kids burger, kids tenders which is a good amount and my kids are always happy. the Service is ok friendly, There is really no ambiance just a few comfy booths and few small tables the place is also very clean. hippos is a good spot you want to catch a game like baseball, basketball, or football if they have it on. the only down side id say is everything on the menu is a separate item nothing comes in a combo other then the kids menu items, and also a bit on the pricy side. I would definitely recommend this place.

    Came in about 1:45 on a Thursday. No hello, no smiles, but we ordered and got our drinks. The girls at the register sit down on a stool, and stare at their phones ,when there is no one to help at the counter, and yet, the tables and floor were dirty. Both areas littered with pieces of food , and the tops of the tables were not clean at all. The fries were good, but either my bun was too toasted or just a few days old in any case it was dry and tasteless. Wouldnt go back due to lack of cleanliness and staff is cold

    Mushroom burger and Cajun fries
    Charlene H.

    We stopped by for a burger as we were heading home from the Texas Artesianal Market. We live an hour away. I would love to have a location close to Richmond/Rosenberg. Clean restaurant where you order at the counter and they deliver to your table. The booth was a big crowded..a little more space would be great. Hubs got the mushroom burger with Cajun fries with jalapeño ketchup. There was a lot of flavor in the mushrooms and the meat. He thinks the mushrooms were not fresh but they didn't have a metallic taste like canned mushrooms. He said it was a bit messy to eat but really tasty. The fries were fine...nothing spectacular- the burger was the star. The jalapeño ketchup was nice...not too hot; just a touch of heat with a slight sweetness. I got the Hawaiian burger with chili cheese fries and ranch. The ranch was thin and underwhelming. My burger was really good. As I began eating it I mentioned to my better half that it would be better with a touch of sweetness...like what you normally get from a teriyaki sauce. But just a little sauce because I'm not a huge teriyaki fan. I took that statement back once I had a bite with the pineapple. The pineapple added the perfect amount of sweetness. I'd eaten about 1/4 of my burger before I bit into the pineapple so a fix could be to put 1 1/2 slices of pineapple on it instead of 1 slice so you taste it in every bite. The piece of ham was lightly grilled which added a nice flavor. I agree with hubs about the fries. They were just ok. The cheese and chili were mediocre. Overall, the burgers were good enough for us to definitely come back when we are in the area. All staff were super nice and we received our food really fast with everything hot.

    #2 Hippo Cheeseburger and Hippo Sweet Potatoe Fries
    Requel P.

    I thought this was a pretty cool concept. They had a variety of burger options. I got a cheeseburger and added a pineapple to it. It was pretty tasty lol. I definitely enjoyed the buns on this burger. I also got a side of sweet potato fries. They also offer Bluebell ice cream and other snacks. I would definitely like to return.

    A BIG  Hippo Hawaiian Burger and regular fries!!

    Good solid service and the food was AWESOMETACULAR!!! A good location and plenty of room to sit during the busy lunch hour.

    I ordered a burger, and while the one I received wasn't what I asked for, it was still very tasty, and the portion sizes for both the burger and tater tots were generous. However, the experience was dampened by the staff. The young lady who took my order was extremely rude and seemed visibly annoyed at having to deal with a customer. Great food, but the customer service definitely needs attention.

    Bacon cheese burger with onion rings
    Jennifer C.

    If you are in the mood for a great tasting, fast burger, but you're not wanting a fast food burger, this is definitely the place to check out. Our burgers were made fresh to order; no small or frozen patties here, no wilted lettuce or gross tomato, etc. They used real blue cheese on my burger and let me tell you the BACON was not overcooked nor undercooked, it was PERFECT. The onion rings were crispy and the chili cheese fries were also very good. The place is quaint, but very clean, and the customer service is very good. This was a happy little find, and we will be popping in again to try the mushroom Swiss burger and the chicken sandwich soon. Meanwhile, grab yourself a tasty Hippo burger and enjoy!

    By far a really good burger. Not dry and the bun isn't soggy when you get it. And you get the perfect amount of fries.

    I really really like their chicken salad recipe. Doesn't have any onions in it. I recommend it, but…read moreyou can also get other sandwiches made to your liking... like this roast beef on Italian bread with mustard potato salad

    I finally visited this local deli after having known about it for several years. It was actually…read morewhen I first started working at my company nearly 10 years ago. Back then, I believe we used to have a flyer/menu from them that some employees ordered from. I visited on a cold day where most of the customers were taking their orders to-go. The setup is a little confusing at first, but you just go down the serving line and stop when someone asks you for your order. You can get a tray, or not, depending on how many plates or dishes you ordered. The ready area (for dine-in customers) is weirdly placed in the middle of the line and the spot for to-go orders is at the end of the line next to the last register. Once your order has been places, you grab the ticket and take it to a register. This setup reminds me of a little local deli I used to visit regular in Stafford. I will say that their selection of hot sandwiches and specialty sandwiches is limited. Most are 1 protein only which is probably how they can keep their prices so low. I asked the order taker if you could customize or make a hot roast beef sandwich or toast it and first she didn't understand me, then she just repeated the two hot sandwich options from the menu. I again asked can you make the sandwich toasted, then she said yes. The sandwich, by default, comes on French bread. I wasn't familiar enough with the menu to pick another bread so I just stuck with French. I chose provolone cheese. It comes out after a few mins and it's nicely toasted and ended up being a nice size sandwich with an adequate meat to bun ratio. The sandwich also comes with a pickle spear. I also added a cup of homemade chili which is pretty decent. The meat is finely ground and I prefer it to be more coarse, but the flavor was good. All of their entrees and side dishes have low prices. One of the best deals is the "classic" sandwich which comes with prosciutto. An even better deal may be their baked potatoes with 4 toppings for only $2.09 weekdays!
