Hippopotamus
About
Located in the heart of the Les 4 Temps shopping hub in Puteaux, Hippopotamus balances a café‑style buzz with the sophistication of a classic French steakhouse. The grill is always blazing, turning premium French beef cuts into melt‑in‑the‑mouth masterpieces that celebrate the art of braising. The restaurant’s philosophy is rooted in a 57‑year tradition of meat expertise. Every piece, from entrecôte to côte de bœuf, comes from French suppliers who follow strict animal‑welfare and environmental standards. The meat is sliced, seasoned and cooked to perfection on open‑fire braises, while house‑made sauces and seasonal vegetables complete the menu. With a warm, family‑friendly environment and a menu that offers a children’s plate for just €4.90 on Wednesdays, Hippopotamus invites diners of all ages to enjoy relaxed dining with a stadium‑style view and an attentive staff ready to guide the experience.
