This has to be on my top list of restaurants ever! The food is a gastronomical delight of intense deep savory flavors! We had the sweet salty rolls that just melt in your mouth scrumptious, the freshest of hamachi crudo, richest duck ragu, & the perfectly seared tender steak. Just absolutely the most orgasmic symphony of flavors! Our server @ the bar was the bartender whom took excellent care of us. The vibe, decor & service was hip & superb! Def will return & a recommendation!

Celebrating my mom’s birthday at Hippo. Everything was wonderfully scrumptious and flavorful. Burrata was refreshing and creamy. Duck ragu and broccoli ravioli with clams were pleasantly tasty. Main dishes were chicken thighs and striped bass and both of them were phenomenal. Especially, the chicken thighs that perfectly cooked so they were very tender, moist, and juicy. Birthday girl had to get her cake so we finished our meal with warm dark chocolate hazelnut cake. Many thanks to our server. His name is Alejandro. He’s very kind, nice, and attentive.

Was super happy with our dinner at Hippo. Every dish was delicious. The brussel sprouts and cauliflower starters had excellent flavors. All the pastas we tried had incredible depth of flavor without being overly heavy or greasy. The hippo rolls and table focaccia were excellent and the chicken thighs were to die for. Only thing that was lackluster was the passion fruit gelato. Fun vibe, lots of seating, and great service!

I was excited to try this place and I was not disappointed. I highly encourage coming with at least three friends so you can try lots of dishes and share. We opted to get a bottle of wine and had a great server who made lots of food recommendations. I also had a vegan and vegetarian friend with me and there were clearly labeled options as well as off menu items the server shared with us. The outdoor patio had plenty of heat lamps so even in January, we were comfortable and had space to enjoy the multitude of courses. I definitely recommend this spot, just maybe carpool since parking is tough.

I recently to celebrate my friends birthday and this was an excellent choice!

None of us had been and enjoyed everything we ordered. Note, you have to order everything at once and honestly if you can- I would order for the table and share as every dish is delicious .

We had the ceviche, crudo and rolls as appetizers and do not regret it.

The chicken thighs were incredibly hearty and a filling meal as well as the duck ragú. The corn pasta was DELICIOUS I would absolutely eat that time and time again.

I wasn’t able to taste the scallops but the dish was absolutely beautiful and my friend enjoyed her meal.

I look forward to exploring the menu some other time.
