Hippopotamus Le Chesnay sur Le Chesnay

12/04/2026: Excellent restaurant with top-notch staff and a sunny terrace.

12/04/2026: Usually the service is more than competent, but last night it seemed to be a bit of a struggle. The dishes are always high quality, made with excellent and delicious ingredients. The service was a real letdown. They were rushed to take our order even though the last customer had arrived only 3 minutes earlier, and then we waited at least an hour and a half for our main courses. It's a shame because it put us off ordering dessert. Furthermore, when there's a group, don't expect staff to divide the bill by the number of guests all the time, and when they ask you to pay per course (to avoid being unfair to those who haven't had alcohol, etc.), don't even try to relax! I'm still giving it 4 stars because I'm used to good service and excellent food, but I'm apprehensive about returning someday, if we ever do.
