Hippopotamus Restaurant and Cocktail Bar

Superb restaurant. Beautifully decorated, comfortable, and classy. The food is delicious with a good variety to suit all tastes. A broad wine list to match. Staff are pleasant and knowledgeable.

A sensational, world class unforgettable dining experience from start to finish. So worth it to come here if you are in Wellington. Food and service is to die for, seating and interior add a touch of class to the harbor view. Has to be seen to be believed.

Amazing service with fantastic decor.

We've been here a couple of times and whilst it is pricey the service alone is amazing and the decor looks so classy and makes you feel like you're somewhere else.

The food is lovely although the buffet can be a little hit and miss and the degustation menu was good with the perfect sized courses leaving you wanting more.

The coffee and after dinner drinks menu is also vast and well worth trying.
