After browsing through the menu, we've decided to pick up two different steaks
There are different sauces where you can choose and pick for your steak which includes:
Barbeque, bearnaise, stewed shallot, pepper and Roquefort cheese.
Other than that, you can choose 3 our of 5 side dishes to eat with it

They have basmati ruce, green beans, ratatouille, fries and potato gratin.

So my boyf and me picked barbeque and pepper sauce. As for the side dishes we chose all the 5 side dishes so that we can share together. However, I find that their steak was abit too chewy which I can hardly swallow it. Nevertheless, I enjoyed myself very much especially with their great service which constantly asking customers about how they feel the food


THUMBS UP! Enjoy the pic.

Even their 'look simple' finger foods already has won my trust on their quality of food. The deep fried spring rolls are fill with lots of well cooked shredded white carrot, carrot, cabbage in it that make it so crispy outside and crunchy from the inside fillings. By dipping it to the normal chilli or tomato sauce will make you crave for more. One of the popular dish order by th younger groups.

I went with my cousin to Hippopotamus for dinner since I wanted to have steak. I ordered a medium-well Sirloin steak with three side dishes, the long beans, ratatouille and potato gratin. You actually get to choose the side dishes. I liked the potato gratin especially due to the cheesy taste. Steak was really nicely done and yummy.

My cousin ordered the Tartare which is actually a raw minced beef mix with onion, parsley, chives and tartar sauce. It has an acquired taste but I think some people prefer to have it raw. I also ordered a Floating Island for desert which is a custard on top of a souffle. This was sweet but nice. My cousin ordered a Pineapple with Honey and with ice cream on top. Overall I really enjoyed my steak at this restaurant. Will visit it again as it serves nice food. It is also a good chill out place.

Went to this French restaurant at Marina Square~The ambience there is really good! It has those brick walls feel and the lightings are cosy~Most of the food there were steaks, hence, there were really not much choice for us to chose from~ since i and 1 of my other friend don't take beef products! Nonetheless, the fried platter was quite nice~The other 2 of my friends ordered set dinner which includes a soup, a main course and desserts. 1 ordered a semi-raw steak and the other ordered lamb satay

This dessert is fantastic~ esp this egg-buree (or smth similar). It's cold egg and there's a layer of burnt sugar on top! It's sweet! And it's quite a big portion! Really nicee~ It's a first time i tried this and i'm loving it! It's abit rare to find this around in spore!

Another of my friend dessert was mixed fruit fondue~ not too bad. The chocolate was served warm-hot! And the fruits were fresh! However, their pineapple fruit was abit sour, it would be nice if it's sweet!

Overall, i think this restaurant is worth a visit for its ambience and desserts! And for steak lovers, there's a additional reason to patronise because the menu will definitely adore you! Gee!

Hipopo grill has a wide selection of delicious looking food. At dinner with my family, we ordered steak along with a couple of other dishes. This is one of the dishes we ordered. The bread though ordinary looking, packs a punch! The bread is fluffy on the inside and when dipped in olive or butter, tastesd absolutelt delicious! The prawns are fresh and succulent.

we ordered the Prime Rib and the Ribsteak on the bone, from the regular section of the menu. Both steaks were full of sinew and fat, and were tough, tasteless, underseasoned and poorly cooked. We also ordered the dessert sampler, which came with tasting portions of a Floating Island, chocolate crepe, crème brulee, fruit salad and a mango sorbet. The Floating Island and chocolate crepe were passable,To say this was disappointing is a huge understatement

Heard about this restaurant from news paper, was attracted by this cute name- Hippopotamus. It stated one of the signature dish is this blue cheese burger and i decided to give it a try. i love blue cheese and this combination is surprisingly good! i was afraid i might not be able to accept this taste but i am just loving it. You can choose two side dishes and i need to say the i will order the burger if i pay a visit again.

We chanced upon this restaurant in Marina Square.

& we decide to try it.

We met one of our friends who worked there.So customer service was really great for us.
She introduce us the difference sauces & indept explanation of how we are suppose to enjoy the cuisine.

We took the hippo set meal which is located at the back of the menu.
Super worth it.

We were offered bread & a plate of thinly sliced salami for starters.
Side dishes were great.
They had rice,ratatouile(super yummy),french fries.
We were able to try all the difference sauces.

The meat were pretty good.
I took a kebab thingy which consist of difference cuts of beef whereas my boyfriend took a beef steak.

For dessert,I choose ice cream whereas my boyfriend took hazelnut cake(A MUST TRY!)

Overall,the experience was really great & the food was great!

The ambience was really great.Will definitely go back there!

Went in to this newly opened restaurant in Marina Square with great anticipation but left the place with a glitch of disappointment.

From the setup, the business system and the manner of how the operations went, its a total disappointment. The air con temperature was far too cold to endure in an enclosed corner for the patrons and not lending the helping hand to keep the food warm enough for consumption.

Service was far too slow and our ice water on our table usually went unnoticed to all staff busy walking up and down the aisle. Seems like this is the trend within the restaurant. We were served with a started that made up of chips that were placed in front of the cashier counter that were totally exposed to all customers! Where is the hygiene standards that restaurant are supposed to adhere to? Worst of all, the chips came in soggy which came in touch with liquid!

To end our dramatic experience with the restaurant, i believe that this is the longest period of time that we had to stand in front of the cashier counter just to make that long awaited credit payment of almost 10 minutes...do bear in mind...the restaurant is only 30 percent full of customers.

Speechless! Only positive thing...the portion of the salad is generous...apart from that am just hoping that they will improve their standards and learn from their experiences.

I was planning to catch a movie at 9pm however I didnt because i thought i could spend more time to indulge in the food here as this restaurant is newly opened. Seeing the many bouquet of flowers (for opening) outside the restaurant, me and bf thought it might be a good idea to try out at this place!

The place wasn't fully packed at about 8.30pm. We found a cosy spot to sit despite the waiter's recommendation to sit near the entrance cuz it was cold inside. We requested for warm water and it came promptly, together with a bowl of chips (unexpectedly!). I thought hmmm, maybe this place is good! So i popped the chips one after another and realized that some of the chips were soggy. Must have gotten into contact with some water! Worst of all, bf told me that the chips were actually placed at the counter in a basket, totally exposed to all sorts of contact possible!! :x

For the main dish, we ordered lamb chop ($18.90) and it just didnt turn out to be satisfactory. It was tough and had lots of fats (that cant be chewed at all) in the meat. We felt that it was quite salty, a consistent taste among all the other dishes (fries, rice & chips). And, the meat turned cold quickly under the chilling temperature. Now we know why the waiter suggested us to sit near the entrance.

I'm still not convinced that this place is that bad, hence I decided to order desserts. We actually have to call for the waiter a few times before our table was cleared. (Not forgetting, the reminders to fill up our ice water too.) So finally, having said the 2nd time to a another waiter, we finally made our order for the dessert which was 'Warm Chocolate Cake' ($10.90). Hmmm, we were expecting the chocolate sauce to 'ooze' out from the souffle cake but it didnt!! And we also suspect that the Vanilla ice cream (that was together with the cake) is from Ben & Jerry's. They serve b&j ice creams in the menu.

Seated right opposite us were a table of middle aged men. It seemed that their orders were mixed up and the food were delayed for a long time. And worst of all, their desserts were served first. The poor waitress had to explain for the mistakes made by their crews.

At the end of the meal, we foot the bill at the cashier (where the 'exposed' basket of chips were placed) as we weren't confident about the waiter's service anymore. After i paid the bill, the senior crew at the cashier murmured his 'thanks' to me while he was settling other bills (swiping cards and etc). That wasnt very polite.

The only reason we will come back to this place is for their salad. It was quite a pretty huge portion and it was ironically better than the main dish.

This restaurant is opened since last thursday.
