    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!

    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.

    Ube pancakes
    Isabel D.

    As a girly who loves Ube - this place satisfied the craving! The Ube pancakes were so delicious - fluffy with the perfect amount of sweetness. Drizzled with the warm Ube syrup, it's a lovely treat for brunch. The service was excellent. It was a Saturday morning and quite busy but our server was attentive and quick. 10/10 would come back again.

    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.

    Chicken and waffle bits

    How am I just finding this out now? WOW! Picture perfect plates that taste as good as they look. Excellent attentive service. Large portions. Reasonable prices. Everything a restaurant should be.

    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!

    Here again for another amazing meal with efficient, friendly service. The Hangout is Definitely a gem of an eatery. Althiugh, I was just a visitor to the local area (Rossmoor Town Center), I would definitely return for the tasty breakfast or lunch dishes and lattes.

    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!

We parked in the Broadway Plaza parking lot, which is a short walk to the restaurant. The restaurant was packed and we were seated in the outside patio. I'm glad we were seated here as it was mellower than the louder and busier inside. After ordering our drinks, we checked out the menu and decided to share two starters: Calamari with house made tartar and cocktail sauce - it was good. Lightly battered and crispy. Zucchini Fries - a heaping portion of fries topped with parmigiano Reggiano and a house made lemon basil aioli for dipping. Never had these types of fries. Cut shoestring style and they were light and delicious. The served a complementary bread basket with butter. It consisted of sourdough slices, Focaccia squares and a bread crisp slice. House French bread - love warm bread and butter. So good that we asked for refills. I had the Joe's House made Ravioli - a generous portion of beef and spinach filled raviolis in a meat sauce topped with Parmesan Reggiano. I just wished the raviolis had a thicker filling. Other entrees ordered by our group were spaghetti and meatballs, House made beef lasagna and bone-in veal Milanese. Everyone was happy with their orders. When we left, the restaurant was still crowded and there was a waiting line. Service was friendly, accommodating and efficient. This is not your typical family style Italian restaurant, but it's more upscale and good for special occasions and get-togethers.

I ended up ordering eggs, toast, bacon, and coffee separately. The coffee was a bit stronger than my preference, but that wasn't a major issue. The bigger challenge was that the eggs were overly salty, and the bacon was much greasier than I would have liked. I also asked for ketchup and hot sauce, but never received them. The service overall was inattentive despite having three different servers throughout my visit. To be fair, the restaurant was very busy and had a full house, so it may appeal to others more than it did to me. However, based on my experience, I would not return.
