My perfect poached eggs on a slice of ciabatta bread with a side of potatoes
Pat C.

We felt very welcome and weee immediately seen to on this quiet Tuesday morning. The menu has all what breakfast and lunch you might feel like. I was warned portions weee big so I went for a pondered 2 eggs at $15. My daughter had the pancakes with berries and bananas and chocolate sauce with loads of sliced almonds. She also had a hot chocolate , I felt that was over priced at $6. We went for the counter as it was very quiet. Service was quick and the food delicious.

Ube pancakes and grilled cheese with fries
Tiffany C.

Located within a plaza with plenty of parking. Came in for brunch with a few friends and it was a packed house. There's indoor and outdoor seating. We selected outside seating. It was a nice day. Their menu has extensive options. Menu option reminds me of Hawaii but with an international twist. Ordered Ube pancakes, Chicken Katsu curry over rice, breakfast scrambled and grilled cheese with fries. Ube pancakes were really delicious and it was not too sweet until you drizzled the ube syrup. Curry chicken katsu was loaded with fried chicken topped with an egg with potatoes. Wished they had more curry sauce but overall it was delicious. Portion was large. This is a shareable dish. Breakfast was okay imo. Nothing special. It came with muffins and roasted potatoes. Grilled cheese with fries were on kids menu option. This is not something for one kid to eat. Large portions. Pricy but it is large portions so it is worth it. Our server was very attentive. He checked on us often which I like. Will definitely come back to try other items.

Monster hotcakes
Nasser S.

Absolutely love this place. I would go back in a heartbeat. The food tasted as good as it looked. All 3 of us were satisfied with our meals completely and definitely want to go back for more and try them again and again and again. I got the Monster Hotcakes that comes with 3 different pancakes and 3 different syrups for the 3 different pancakes. Can you say over the top awesome, you don't have to, I just did haha. It also comes with two eggs, I got scrambled and two meats, I got chicken sausage which was really good. It also comes with French toast and fruit. I was so happy. The only down fall is the cutting board it is served on looks great for presentation but not very functional with syrup being poured. The garlic noodles and crispy chicken was on point as well and the Loco Moco was good too. I must go to destination location Pro Tip : go early on the weekend or on a week day when they are less crowded. We went at around 11:30 am on Saturday and we still got in but they was packed even outside. Worth the wait either way.

Omelet
Elizabeth L.

Came here because of the great reviews. To me, it seems like this place is a little over hyped. It's really cute inside, and the staff was friendly. Maybe I just didn't get the right thing, I'm not sure. I just wasn't super impressed. I ordered an omelet and as soon as it came out, I could tell that the eggs were overdone/burnt. That is my pet peeve with eggs, and feel that for a breakfast spot, it should be a big no-no. Eggs just do not taste good when they're not done properly. They did not have sourdough bread so I ordered the English muffin, but it was so hard and thin, it reminded me of a hockey puck. I wasn't really a big fan of the potatoes either. My husband ordered the Benedict and he said that his was pretty good. He did say, though, that there was almost too much ham--like it wasn't well proportioned. That being said, he did enjoy it. He didn't really care for the potatoes either. I ordered an iced coffee that was really good. All in all, I probably wouldn't be back but it was alright.

Ube pancakes, eggs and bacon
Hope B.

We love this place! Before I start, just be aware that on weekends, the wait could be lengthy, especially if you have a party over 5 people. All the time that we've been here, the service has been great! They were friendly, efficient, and competent. Some are more friendlier than others but that's ok. The portions are HUGE, so come hungry. The chicken and waffles is amazing. The chicken was well battered and seasoned just the way I like it. The outside is crispy and the inside is tender and juicy. The pancakes are also great. My favorite is the Ube pancake with the Ube syrup. It's not overly sweet but sweet enough to satisfy if you're craving something sweet. The pancakes are cooked perfect, is not doughy but soft and fluffy. There's plenty of private parking and though the place is a good size, it can be crowded. On a nice day, you can opt to have outside seating which is a nice touch. 100% recommend.

Ube espresso
Winnie L.

After coming back from Hawaii, I was craving one pancakes. A friend told me about their favorite brunch place which happened to be here. I have only been to their PH location years ago and remembered it was good, having their Chicken n Waffles at the time. We had a late lunch and arrived around 2ish, just under an hour before they closed. Got the ube espresso (which is pretty much a latte) 4/5 and ube pancakes ofc. If this were just pancakes, it'd be 5/5. But since I am comparing it to YogurStory's (in HNL) ube pancakes, I am giving it 3.5/5. The fresh fruit toppings, fluffiness and soft texture was nice. The ube flavoring was powder vs the natural coconut flavors, as it sat on my tongue the whole time. IYKYK. Sauce wasn't too sweet but lacked the true ube flavor I was hoping for. DD ordered the chicken katsu and absolutely LOVED, as did I from the bite she shared with me. jasmine rice. Mild curry sauce. Crispy chicken. Soft Yukon potatoes. Everything was very well balanced. 5/5 She also enjoyed her Butterfly tea drink that was blue colored. 5/5 Hubs ordered the local moco which was curry sauce vs tradl gravy. 3/5 He said it was okay. His hot matcha was good. 4/5 Overall, this was like solid 4. Will be back to try the garlic noodles. That looked really good

Hangover
Ed S.

We drove to Walnut Creek to try to check the Hangout. It was a busy weekday morning with several people inside. We're just lucky to find a table for us. It's almost lunchtime and we wanted to check their special menu. I ended up getting the Hangover consisting of stir-fried Italian noodles, Basil, Bell pepper, Onion, Mushroom, CK Apple, Bacon and fried egg The vegetables are fresh and the noodles are soft. I liked this combination of vegetables and noodles as well as the bacon and fried eggs. The plate is big in portion. Next time, I will try their breakfast plate. I read a lot of positive reviews on this. Until next time.

Thai Siam Tea
Morgan P.

We regulars at the pleasant hill location and had to check out the new location in Rossmoor. Location- plenty of parking available, shares a shopping center parking lot. Waitlist- quoted 18-33 min wait, only waited 5-10 before getting called The line always looks long but it moves fast and it's worth a brief wait! Order- Siam tea- 10/10 great classic Thai tea Raspberry lemonade- 8.5/10 super fresh! Leans very tart, not syrupy sweet Chick pops- we always get this at the other location, and just like always, they were 10/10 Garlic noodles- 8/10 they're tasty but slightly lacking something to take it over the top Katsu curry- 10/10 the chicken is the perfect carrier for the curry gravy, and everything on the plate just complements each other so perfectly And the actual reason we came here: the pancake. I'm not a big pancake person but the hangout pancakes are so tasty and fluffy and delicious they're really the only ones I'll eat!

Loco Moco
Yee W.

Came here with my bestie, I didn't know you can get on the waitlist on yelp so you should do that! It was about 10-15 mins wait for us so we just headed back to our car because it was too cold outside for us. The restaurant was cute, tables and chairs along the walls, bar area as well. One bathroom. Our server was nice and the food was delicious. I ordered the ultimate bacon cheeseburger and I'm surprised I ate the entire thing. I had a side of salad instead of fries. My Bestie ordered the loco moco and she ate the entire thing as well. Service was great. The ambience was cool. Wouldn't mind coming here again.

Matcha
Linda M.

Wow! Youngest M spotted this place from a post on the socials, and asked if we could go while she's home for college. It seems to be a new place from when I used to frequent this shopping center when my folks lived in Rossmoor. Super busy, but they are quick. The food is really good, and we tried a lot of things! Young M liked the Thai Tea pancakes, and my omelette and breakfast potatoes were among the best I've had. Plus fresh squeezed juice! The crispy chicken over noodles was amazing.

Visited for brunch with family, * Location: Restaurant is in a mid-sized shopping center, lots of parking. * Ambiance: Indoor & outdoor patio seating, indoor is cozy with view of staff crew preparing drink orders & a peak into the busy kitchen. * Menu: Good variety of sweet and savory dishes, American and neat Thai options. * Staff: Was incredibly kind & sweet - they regularly checked in on us. The crew kept a very busy and popular restaurant running like clockwork! Tried the Avocado Citrus Salad, great bright flavors and filling. The rest of our party tried the Chicken & Waffles, Garlic Noodles & Crispy Chicken, and Gai Ga Crow - everyone loved their dishes. Would definitely recommend visiting!

Ron P.

This place is the bomb!!! Swung by at 2pm on Saturday and the place was still packed!! Pretty casual vibe and all the staff are so friendly and attentive!!! I got the Chicken and Waffles, the soicy maple syrup is insane! We also tried the Berry Lover Toast and Dirty matcha which were also great!! Portions are large :)) Need to make another excuse to come up and visit!

Crispy Chicken Benedict
Jonny T.

I love this place! No frills, no bullshit. We always go to their OG location, and appreciate how the food stays consistent! Great food, very ADA friendly, and great service!

There was a slight mishap this time though I made the reservation about three days before Valentine's Day and received a confirmation text. Then the day before Valentine's Day, I got another text saying my reservation was canceled, which definitely threw me off. Thankfully, I called the restaurant and they were able to get everything situated and reinstate my reservation. That was a relief. When we arrived, we were greeted by the hostess who asked if we had a reservation and then directed us to our table. I really liked our table location it felt comfortable and perfect for a date night. The ambience of the restaurant was nice and set the tone for a great evening. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. For drinks, I got a Summer Breeze and my girl had the Tai Chi. For appetizers, we ordered the Lady Fingers which I never had before but were really good. For our main dishes, we had the pineapple fried rice, cashew chicken, and Pad See Ew. I stepped out of my food comfort zone with the cashew chicken and Pad See Ew, but I made the right decision because both dishes were delicious. One unexpected kicker was that they boxed up our leftovers for us, which was a really nice touch and something I appreciated. Overall, this was a great Valentine's Day experience. The ambience was nice, the food was good, and the service was solid. I'd rate my experience a 10 out of 10 and will definitely be back.

Since we were there so early we were able to get seated right away without reservations. Walking in my first impression is this restaurant is beautiful! It's professionally decorated/designed. We ordered the ube latte, matcha latte, marnier French toast, coconut moffle, and millionaires bacon. Service was great! Everything came out very quickly! The ube latte actually had a very strong ube taste and not just the brilliant purple color. And you could tell it was freshly prepared since it was still a tiny bit warm despite being an iced drink. The matcha came with cute latte art and was filled to the brim. The matcha was a good strength without crossing into overly earthy. The French toast had a very smoky flavor that reminded me of the smoke when a birthday candle is blown out. I don't know how they did that. It was a very unique flavor. The moffle was a very balanced and tasty dish. The Brie went well with the raspberries. The waffle had a nice chewy texture from the mochi. I didn't get a lot of coconut flavor but I still enjoyed it a lot! The millionaires bacon hit all the right notes for me. You have the saltiness, a kick of spiciness, some sweetness, etc. The only negative for me was the front door/entrance should stay closed more. There were some flies that distracted from the lovely experience. But that may not be completely possible given how popular they are there are probably a lot of people coming in and out at any given time. We left stuffed but without leftovers. It is a little pricier for breakfast. I think after tip it was around $100. So it was $50 per person. This is one of the best brunches I've had in a long time! I can't wait to come back and try their other items.
