First off this place is awesome and cozy! It is very welcoming! I have seen the reviews about this…read moreplace. I decided to give it a try tonight with my family. When you walk in you can scan the QR code and order from the table. Or they will bring you a menu to your table. Then once you have figured out what you want, you then will walk up to the register to order. Personally, I ordered the old fashioned way. Next time I come I will order the new way with the QR code. The pizza here is really fresh and delicious. It's definitely not your average pizza from the competitors. I don't even believe that they can match the quality of the pizza here. My first observation was the crust and how it wasn't greasy. It was smooth and freshly hot from the oven. All the ingredients were fresh and quite honestly I didn't feel bloated after eating. I also had a house salad with ranch prior and it was delicious as well. There are no fountain drinks available here. So if you need an extra drink I would recommend ordering extra drinks. They also don't have ice or cups available so it is best to wait for your drinks when your food is ready. Overall, I am really impressed with the delicious pizza and the prompt service they provided with just two people. They seemed very happy to provide everyone with equal service whether in person or if were picking up an online order. I highly recommend trying this place out if you are reading my review.

This was a very difficult reviews because it involves the food and inappropriate staff…read more It did smell very inviting from the parking lot so wanted to give it a try. It's a local mom and pop establishment from looking from the outside, but was confirmed clearly it was from staff. Not sure where I want to begin. I'll start with the food. I got the lunch special. 1 slice, 3 knots and a drink. They were "short stocked" on drinks so only had 3 choices. Beverage was in a bottle and was not cold. I was told they had no ice either. I got the mushroom and spinach slice. The toppings and sauce were very good however the crust was black and burnt on the bottom so I just picked off the toppings. The same with the garlic knots too. You can see in the photo too. The marinara dipping sauce was cold and was told they do not do warm dipping sauce. I do believe if the pizza and the knots were not burnt, they would have been enjoyable. I am not sure if management reads this but your staff does like you very much. However, you might want to let them know discussing other employees and past employees love lives, jail records, arrest records, making fun of someone's disabilities is not ok in the workplace let alone with customers in the restaurant. I learned wayyyyy too much about the "person" that just got fired and their age and why they were arrested and closing up your restaurant an hour early. I felt extremely uncomfortable having to listen to this!

Former New Yorker, hadn't a New York slice in a long time. Walked in and ordered one simple cheese…read moreslice to go. Ate it on the road like a typical New Yorker. Could not believe how good it was! The crust was thin and crisp, and the oil dripping from the bottom. And was told by someone on staff that the water comes from NY, and the recipe has not changed since before the mayor of Hutto took over the business. As I drove home, I struggled to save a piece for my wife to try, but I succeeded. And she was also pleasantly surprised. However, given that she was just in NYC a few days ago, she said it's not as good as the one she tried out there, but if she hadn't tried a slice in NYC recently, she would've said that this one is very good and reminiscent of NYC pizza. This is the first time we come really close. Prior to Anthony's Pizza, we tried Russo's in StoneHill, but this one is much better. Will definitely go back for more, with the family, either to go or eat-in. My only complaint is the price for one simple cheese slice is $4.00 + tax. A legit NYC slice in New York is not selling for $4.00, probably $2.50, but $4.00 is over the top. But if the water truly comes from NY, maybe I could be reasonable. Staff was friendly and informative. The place looked neat and clean.

Kids spaghetti and meatballs was frozen meatballs, not actual meatballs. Do not get the pasta mafia. The fettuccine is a weird mix of bell peppers, green onion, Alfredo, and chili oil- all mixed together. The steak is laid on top and the broccoli- unseasoned- on the sides of the dish. I question the beef. The highlight of the meal was the garlic bread. It was absolutely delicious and had us thinking we were in for a fabulous meal, but all of us were disappointed.

We also got the fish and fries fried plate and the New Orleans Po' Boys sandwich.They are usually part of the Hutto food truck park, but are now parked off Main Street and you can see them off 79. They still have plenty of seating in this location that they currently share with Happy Panini and cute twinkle lights. They're fast and efficient with getting you your items and I have had friendly service the 2 times I've ordered from them. Portion size is really good for the flavor, quality of the cook and price you're paying. I did see a worker take a break to smoke which concerned me at first, but when receiving my food noticed they had gloves on. Still definitely plan on going to come back to try more of the menu!

I have heard high praise from locals, and at the end of the day, nothing beats a city's local diner. It is one of those places that closes by 3 pm every day and feels perfect for brunch after a Sunday church service. I came in a little after 11 am with the man who is basically the face of Hutto at his request. He has lived in Hutto for years and has countless stories of the city to share. We sat as he shared stories with my co worker and me about the history of the city. He is a wonderful man, and if he thinks Hippo Cafe is a must visit, DAMMIT, it is a must visit. The place feels ripped straight out of the 80s with artwork of musicians including Elvis and Willie Nelson, along with Alf, ET, and Gizmo. It is definitely dated, but in the best way. Looking at the menu, they have everything you would expect a diner to have. Everything is decently priced and affordable. I ordered two breakfast tacos and a tea. One was bacon, egg, and cheese. The other was chorizo, egg, and cheese. They were not winning any awards, but my god they were like an omelet on a tortilla. They were filled with eggs. With a little picante sauce, they were great and felt like a classic diner meal. The service is great. Our lady was attentive and very friendly to us. That seems to be the vibe here. There's a lot of 1 stars here, but trust the guy with the Yelp Elite badge and the essay of a review, it's not a 1 star establishment. It's more. This place feels historic and gets plenty of love from regulars in the city. You know what you are getting into when you visit, but what does that really mean? You are getting old town love. A classic meal. A feeling like you have been standing your whole life and you just sat down. That is Hippo Cafe. RIYL: Your classic cafe or painting of 80s icons (Alf)

He was inexperienced and we witnessed frustration from other servers that he was asking basic questions to. He asked what we wanted with no tablet or paper to write it down. Once we did order, with an experienced server stepping, the food was not good. I asked for scrambled eggs, came out like an omelet and with a burnt oil taste. The hash browns had no flavor and were almost burnt on top and undercooked below. The bacon was edible. The only saving grace was the biscuit. Fluffy and amazing, the sausage gravy was not good. The other dish was the same. When he gave us the ticket, saw the food still on both plates, he didn't even ask how it was. May try again, but definitely not for breakfast

I also like the layout of this 54th St. because the dining space is spread out and separate from the bar area but there is a lot of bar space as well depending on what you are looking for. This is a newer restaurant so the design and decore is more of a modern elegant look. I like the fact that you can order off of the happy hour menu in the bar or dining area and they have a lot to offer on their happy hour menu, including drinks and appetizers. At the time I visited, they offered a separate menu that allows you to pair up with another diner at your table to order a combination of select meals, appetizers, drinks, and desserts for a really good combination price. We chose a combination that gave us each an alcoholic beverage, a shared appetizer, and two entrées. We shared the gringo dip and chips and for my entrée I had the chicken bucatini. It was a delicious blackened chicken and pasta in an alfredo sauce and it was delicious. My daughter had a soup and sandwich combo. That was a very generous portion for the price point as well. There are definitely deals to be had but more importantly, I found the food and service to be spot on and it didn't break the bank.

We came in on a Saturday afternoon with a group of three and had no wait at all, which was a nice bonus. I'd say this place is a step above your typical neighborhood Applebee's or Chili's, so it's a little pricier than those spots -- but you can taste the difference. For an appetizer, we ordered the chips with Gringo Dip, which is one of my favorites. I usually go with the Rattlesnake Pasta (it has a nice little kick to it), but this time I tried the Gyro Pita with fries. The portions were generous, and the gyro was delicious and very filling. I'm personally not a big fan of lettuce in my gyro, but it didn't take away from the overall flavor.
