Had this in my Yelp bookmark for awhile. Finally was able to stop by Hippo Burgers during Snovid-21. Although Houston was recovering fromt he snow and freezing temperatures, these guys opened their doors quicker than most other restaurants in the area. It is a counter...service place and they bring it out to you. It was not very busy when we got there and the food came out very quickly. The workers were nice, nothing out of the ordinary. Went with just the regular Hippo burger, French fries, and a chocolate shake. All was fresh and delicious. Nothing that revolutionized the burger concept that would get me to drive the 25 miles from my house, but if I am going to the airport I would definitely visit again.More

I moved to Atascocita at the beginning of August 2015 and I had received a flyer in the mail. One of the offers was for mini cupcakes from a nearby bakery. I visited that bakery to claim my free cupcakes and spoke to the baker...directly. I asked him about the other establishments mentioned on the flyer and he recommended Hippo Burgers. I visited soon after and I have been a regular ever since. I have tried all of their signature burgers except one (not a mushroom fan). I even starved myself until about 3 in the afternoon to try The Monster Hippo one time. That one was so awesome, but Hippo Texas is my favorite burger. The Hippo Buffalo Fries are really tasty, too. I was the first customer at the Atascocita grand opening in the Spring of 2018...I am proud to say. I took my Teo Bffs with me and I tell everyone I encounter that they must try a Hippo Burger. P.S. I think anyone can make a burger and throw a bunch a crap on it, call it a signature burger and charge up the wazoo. The difference between those places and Hippo is the meat. I feel the meat is the foundation of the burger and Hippo chefs season the meat just right. I am carnivore, but I have vegetarian offspring. I took my youngest and she ordered the BBQ and asked them to substitute the Buffalo Fries for the meat. They did and she said it was really good.More

Walked up to order cashier just looked at us. Then finally said what do you want. I was a little taken back, we then ordered. He literally didn’t say anything. My wife asked what was Cajun fries, he stated it has seasoning on it. I...was amazed that this is whom they choose to greet customers. We ordered and she ordered a shake. Same young man delivered. My wife said politely thank you, he just walked away. If you are going to work with customers learn some manners and customer service.More

The burgers are very generous in size and flavor. Just bring your appetite. Sides are also great! Gets crowded at times but worth the wait.

I haven’t had such a good burger in a long time. Real meat and home cut French fries. Good customer service.

Once my eyes adjusted to the brightness of the yellow and red interior walls and bright fluorescent lighting I studied the menu board and placed my order. I asked for the Mushroom burger, an order of onion rings and an ice tea. It was a...bit hard to hear the guy at the cash register as there were 6 guys at a table behind me talking loudly and this place is all hard surfaces so sounds echo here. I filled my tea and sat and waited. Seemed like a steady stream of lunch customers, several had ID tags that looked like from the nearby high school, maybe teachers. My order came out and it was pretty awesome, a big burger and plenty of onion rings. Their rings are the crunchy crisp breaded ones and tasted great, their oil in the fryer is obviously fresh. The burger was super juicy and the meat is not hard pressed into a patty shape but kind of broke up in the bun. The mushrooms and grilled onions were super hot of the griddle. Probably should have not had the mayo. I'm ok with it but between the mayo and the juicy burger the bun soon began to fall apart. No problem, they have plastic cutlery if you need it and lots of napkins. The burgers and sides are priced like a place that isn't a big chain fast food joint so is a bit higher. I got out for just over $12 but felt it was worth it. It sure doesn't look like much from the street, kind of a non descript strip center but the burgers are good.More

Had a neighbor recommend this place last weekend and MAN am I glad he did! This place has amazing burgers with beef patties that you can actually see! I am glad to see a good burger joint locally without having to drive to Bill's on...494. Support this place to keep it open! This is not fast food (in my opinion)!More

Meat on burger was crumbling apart and fries were burnt. I asked for them to redo and they said they would just give me my money back because all burgers were like that. I know that is not true because my last burger wasn't like...that. The owner told the manager to give me my money back and he wasnt going to remake it. I asked the man was he the owner and he said no, but his picture was on the wall and the manager had already told me he was. Very hot inside.More

The Wilson Rd. location is a hole in the wall place: limited seating, single unisex (but clean) restroom, plastic service, food in plastic trays, no ambience, counter ordering (but table delivery): one star so far, right? Maybe so, but when it gets to their burgers...it jumps to five. Went there twice, got the Texas Burger both times: once with French fries and once with tater tots. Tots could have been a little browner but no complaint. I will try to order them extra crispy next time. Both fries and tots were hot and fresh. First time there I asked to have the burger cooked "true medium" hoping for a patty that was not rubbery. They said they only cook it one way and so they do. That way is "just right." No worries about that. My wife raved about the excellent flavor of their Angus beef and I was absorbed in the overall burger experience which was phenomenal: large patty (1/2 lb), good buns, chili, jalapenos and other toppings. All blended well. I have had many excellent burgers in my time and I must say, these were among the best. My partners both ordered the Hippo Burger with the same conclusion as mine. The staff was friendly, courteous, helpful and responsive. Food a little pricey but good value. If you are after five star dining ambience with starched white table cloths, crystal and fine silverware, don't go there, but if you want a good burger, Hippo is the place for you. Kingwood BobMore
