I've been a fan of this chain for sometime now. They are a locally founded and grown restaurant serving up some of the best hamburgers around! They have several locations and continue to grow. Why? Well because the offer a great menu of burgers, chicken sandwiches and wings as well as hot dogs. But I go there for the burgers because they are the best, bar none. The 1/2lb of perfectly grilled tender moist beef patty is place on a fresh soft bun with all sorts of toppings that you can choose from. And what do I have with my burger? Well I sometime have the tater tots but I really like their crunchy crisp and never greasy onion rings! So, what other things sets this chain apart? The staff is super friendly, from the welcome you get as you walk through the door to the service counter where your order is taken, and don't forget the nice employees who bring your hot order to your table. The interior is super clean and bright and the restrooms are spotless. Oh, and did I mention how good their burgers are? Super moist to the point if you don't eat your burger at a reasonable pace, the bottom bun will get rather damp from the juices in the meat! Not to worry, no hippos are used in making these burgers, but they are plump just like a hippo!

Chicken sandwich

The Manager Michael was wow. The best hard working, outgoing manager I have ever met! The food is very hot and fresh and cleanliness is up to standard, if not BETTER. I will definitely be coming back here again!

I always look forward to visiting this part of town so I can come to Hippo Burgers. My favorite is their Hawaiian burger, a combination of pineapple, Canadian bacon, and tomato. It's the perfect combination of sweet and savory. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The area is clean for the most part and there is quite a bit of seating.

Burnt burger and sour pineapple
Julie H.

Everything except the fries and onion rings were bad. My burger was burned and the pineapple was sour and like the can had been opened for weeks. When I told the staff about it she told me she would tell the cooks, they knew they put out that substandard product. For me to say something takes an act of congress. Won't be returning it cost us $40 for 2 for lunch.

Ok!! This burger was one of the best burgers I have had. The staff were friendly and nice, but this place is a hole in the wall & needs a facelift!!

Classic Hippo, no lettuce no tomato per request. This is the other half for take home.

Third time was the charm. Their portions are huge. Still didn't get my order correct even though we always eat in. However, it's the perfect place for me and my son to talk after his dentist appointments just across the street if we don't choose Culver's. The place has a nostalgia for me because it reminds me of Gazeebo Burger in Dallas. Not an everyday burger because it's huge. But they made a suggestion that I try the kids size and jackpot. Loved it!

Hippo Chicken Special
Patty C.

There's not a lot of food destinations when it comes to Humble, but one can mark Hippo Burgers as an excellent spot for tasty burgers. I was recommended this place by a friend. Order at the counter, and the food will be brought out to you. Their menu focuses on burgers, with lots of varieties available to order. Given I had already had a burger the day before, I opted for the Chicken Especial which had a bit of everything. The sandwiches were served upside down. Hmm, that seems to be their thing... The chicken was cooked well, but my Cajun fries were very salty. The complete menu is not listed on their website, which is unfortunate. Their in house menu includes salads and several variations of fries. Definitely worth a return! Plus I have to figure out the mystery of the upside down burgers...

Kid Burger

YUM-One of the best burgers places around. Picked up several to-go orders for an office lunch. The online order was simple and pick up was super easy. Everyone's orders were correct and the burgers didn't disappoint. I had the kids meal with fries because it is the perfect size for lunch. Hamburger was hot and seasoned well. Topped with all the free fresh fixings just melted in my mouth. Fries were hot and crispy and the onion rings were made in house. This location is small and we normally get our food to go. Definitely would recommend!

Hippo BBQ and Cheeseburger
Gabrielle C.

We were in the mood for a burger and we've been seeing this local chain on our adventures and decided to pop in. I also just love the hippo mascot. The portions are alright as we were able to split a burger and fries and leave satisfied. Something to note, this isn't a fries included establishment so you'll have to order everything on its own. The building seems kind of old, but it was quiet, so this is definitely a good place for a chill, sit down meal. The employees were polite which is always nice The burger itself was fine. Definitely a good simple burger joint, for when you're not looking for fast food and you want to support a local business.

Ordered the #3 and added Blue Cheese to it; not many places get it quite right but Hippo Burgers nailed it. i recommended it with Jalapeños. Service was fast and friendly; Which was good because my group of 3 and i were starving. The burger was not soggy at all, the fries were seasoned well and extra crispy. flavorful and tasty overall. price was reasonable and its a nice cozy vibe. would highly suggest this spot to anyone looking for a quick bite to eat

After being seated, it seemed the waitstaff forgot about us. We went to the bar and politely brought it to their attention. What impressed me most was how the situation was handled. The staff took full accountability, apologized, and even brought us complimentary garlic knots. That's how you run a business. Since it was our first visit, our waiter took the time to recommend some of the restaurant's favorites. The manager also stopped by our table to check on our experience. When we told her how kind and attentive our waiter had been, she surprised us with a complimentary Parry's beer cup and bottle opener. The food was fresh, delicious, and exceeded our expectations. The garlic knots were incredibly soft, buttery, and packed with garlic flavor. The atmosphere was perfect for watching the game, and the customer service turned what could have been a negative first impression into a memorable experience. We'll definitely be back!

You can tell this is a true family-owned restaurant, and that personal touch makes a huge difference. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with the biggest smiles. Sabino and his family made us feel welcome right away, and the service from his daughters was absolutely wonderful. They were friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a great experience. And the FOOD... We started with the chips and queso, and that queso was easily one of the best I've had in a long time. You can taste that it's made in-house, and the jalapeños on the side were the perfect touch. I ordered the Enchiladas Al Carbon, and they were GOOD AF. The fajita meat was flavorful and tender, and the enchiladas, beans, and rice were all delicious. Even the sides stood out, which says a lot because I'm usually more focused on the main dish. My spouse ordered the chicken mole enchiladas and absolutely loved them. The mole had so much flavor, and was already talking about wanting them again. We also had margaritas. I had one on the rocks and my spouse had a frozen margarita. Both were delicious and, thankfully, they weren't shy with the tequila. Definitely a good margarita! What really stood out to us, though, was the hospitality. There's something special about eating somewhere where the owners and their family are actually there, taking care of their customers and putting their heart into the restaurant. You don't always get that at the bigger Mexican restaurants. If you're in the Humble/Atascocita area, PLEASE give Sabino's a try. This is exactly the kind of local, family-owned business that deserves our support. Great food, strong margaritas, friendly people, and that welcoming feeling like you're eating at someone's family table along with great music playing. We will absolutely be back!

About five minutes before we passed Sabino's, I opened the app and saw the reviews. Great timing! We entered, and there was a customer standing in the front. We asked her if Sabino's was good and she began to rave about their food! She was right! Firstly, the service was extraordinary. Everyone is very helpful and friendly. We ordered mixed fajitas for two. Yummy! Hot, seasoned well, and the tortillas...amazing. The guacamole was SO GOOD, I thought about ordering some to take home, but we live two hours away. We have a ton of leftovers, which I'm probably going to break out around midnight. Don't sleep on this place! We'll be back!
