Millie&#x27;s American Kitchen

Quick fact before I do my review: Before officially being in a relationship, The Hideout Kitchen is…read morewhere we had our very first date. And it was at the former location. So what better place to dine in to celebrate out 2nd Year Wedding Anniversary at The Hideout Kitchen :) We went for dinner. Our server was KEVIN. Simply...HE IS JUST AWESOME. He knows the menu, he knows the history, and has amazing stories to share with everyone. Great guy. A lot of people there that night seemed to be celebrating something. The noise was a bit loud that I felt I had to almost yell to have a conversation with my husband. But the vibe was great. I enjoyed looking around at the decor. We ordered: - TRUFFLE FRIES for appetizers - I loved everything about it. haha. Tastey! - linguine & clams - I ordered this. It was good. However, I felt it was way oily. And after every bite I took, I had to wipe my mouth. And I accidentally spilled oil on my shirt. - PASTA ALLA CARBONE with steak - My husband enjoyed it and started to get full towards clearing out his bowl haha. - SCALLOPED POTATOES - I ordered a side of this. Definitely was not expecting to look the way it did, but I thought the presentation was beautiful. It was good; however, I was not a fan at how crunchy and hard the top first layer was. In a few areas, it was almost burnt. But I thought it was pretty good without the need for a type of sauce on the side. - For drinks, I had to Summer sangria and my husband had the Rumble in the Jungle. We enjoyed it. Definitely hit the spot. No complaints at all about these drinks. - And Kevin surprised us with a dessert to celebrate : Cranberry Bread Pudding. This was delicious. Very flavorful. I am not really into Cranberry, but this is definitely an exception. Loved the fruits on the side as well. The Hideout Kitchen will always have a place in our hearts. We will definitely come back. We still need to try this place out for Brunch. We need to try their UBE pancakes! hehehe. And thanks Kevin for being amazing that night!

I noticed a couple Filipino-inspired dishes on the brunch menu -- Pulled Pork Silog, & the one we tried, Ube Hotcakes. Fluffy & coated in a deep purple sauce, but they didn't posses the distinct taste of ube. My Breakfast Burrito was very well put together, & so hearty, I could only get through half. Every bite saw a dip into the tasty hot sauce. And like the five-year old that I am, I loved that tater tots were a side option. I wouldn't make the drive from my neck of the woods specifically for the Hideout Kitchen, but should I find myself in Lafayette again, I wouldn't say no to an invite here.

The consistency between locations is incredible, they had so much of the same feel. I loved the patio and that you could sit across on the lawn if you wanted. They even have lawn chairs for you to borrow. The menu is limited but good. I was surprised they didn't have a sav blanc, but the sangrias were delicious. I got a vegan ceasar which was great, but probably too much dressing. My fiancé got a pork quesadilla that he absolutely loved. He was a very very big fan of the salad on top and said it played a huge role in making the dish cohesive and feel much lighter. I also tried the corn pasta which was delicious. Especially with such a cute location, we will be back!

Plenty of espresso drinks, freshly brewed coffee with cheap refills, and a pastry case that always has something worth grabbing. The breakfast menu holds up too. Avocado smash on sourdough and the farm fresh egg sandwich are both solid picks if you want more than a pastry. The space is the real draw. Indoor seating if you want quiet, plus a big covered patio out back with string lights, wine barrel tables, and heaters for the colder months. It's a pleasant place to sit and talk without feeling rushed. A few tips if you're heading over: get there early for the best seats, and street parking out front is free until 10am. After that you're hunting. Kitchen closes at 2pm, so plan accordingly. I've only ever come for the morning routine, but they've got a full bar with craft cocktails, draft beer from local breweries like Fieldwork and Altamont, and wine by the glass. The evening side is on my list. If you live in the area and don't have a regular coffee spot yet, make this it.

We asked for some hot sauce, but the waitress failed to mention that it wasn't free. Who charges for hot sauce anyway? We don't mind paying $1 for it, but at least warn us. Overall, this place had good vibes, the waitstaff was great and attentive and we didn't wait long for the check.

My family and I ended up here randomly today (Saturday) after doing a yelp search for lunch. We arrived and it was BUSYYYY, but the wait time was said to be 11-20 minutes. So we decided to wait. Wait time ended up being OVER 30 minutes, but IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT. We almost decided to just walk right over to Kinders, after waiting 30 minutes. But we thought "wth, we've waited this long, let's just wait a bit longer". Finally after almost 40 minutes, we were seated inside. There is no patio seating here and the venue is really small. I wouldn't recommend for groups over 4-5 at the pleasant hill location unless you call to make a reservation in advanced. Though I'm not sure if they take reservations. Anyway, we ordered the following. Kids pancake and fruit. Kids fried chicken & fries + a side of extra crispy bacon. Both kids meals came with an apple juice. Crab Benedict. Chicken and wafffles. Ube pancakes Hot chocolate Thai Iced Tea & an alcohol beverage. The something sour. Can't remember the name but had grapefruit, soju, tajin rim. Damn never EVERYTHING was delicious!! We loved it alllll. Minus the hot chocolate. My kids did not like it, but it wasn't bad. Just not a favorite. On top of the food being yummy! It's all so decently priced. For everything mentioned above, our bill came out to $150. Which to me, in today's world, for 4 people, all of that?! Is not bad at all. I spend more on a less when grocery shopping for two days worth of groceries. We WILL be visiting again!

Diablo Blvd. The staff were excellent, very attentive and professional. We had a large party for brunch on a Sunday. We were shocked to see we were practically the only people there. I enjoyed my food which was a salad. The rest of my party all complained that their dishes tasted bland and super basic or came out cold. I guess with mine being a salad I didn't have that complaint. We also had espresso drinks which weren't good. Mocktails, cocktails were just ok. I'm not really sure what happened. This place has the makings of a great restaurant. We came here 15 years ago for Valentine's Day and they were understaffed and the night was a bit of a disaster for us. Our food came out cold and an hour apart. It was the last time we've ever bothered with eating out on Valentine's Day. We figured it was just a tough night for restaurants. But, this experience was sort of similar enough that I don't know if we'll be back this time. I really wanted to give them a chance. The kitchen seems far from the dining room and maybe that's part of why it's so difficult. I cannot recommend this spot, based on our only 2 experiences. But I do hope they can figure out a way to manage their kitchen and introduce more flavorful dishes. It would be a really great spot if they did.

Our waitress Doreen (spelling might be wrong), came by shortly after to see if we needed drinks. We all ordered drinks and appetizers. We ordered the calamari and the deviled eggs. Both ditches came out shortly after as well, and they both were really good. For an entrées, we ordered the Ahi tuna, the pork chop, the Petrole Sole. Al drinks were very tasty (Sangria, old fashioned, rum and coke, and a wine cabaret, Entrees came out and everything looked really good. Sole I was told was really good, Great flavor and cooked perfect. Pork chop was also cooked perfect and had great flavor to it. The mash potatoes and spinach came with was also cooked great. The Ahi Tuna was cooked perfect seared great, the tomato Veggies or whatever it was underneath the tuna was cold. Don't know why they would have a cold veggies or whatever it was under the tuna. The flavor was good, it was just cold. The deserts were the apple tart, cheesecake, sorbet, and ice cream cookies. All of the desserts are really good cooked perfect and great flavor.

This is the first time back here after they did a remodel. Don't totally recall the look before but the place looks great.

Our bartender today was Maxwell, awesome job. And shout-out to Natalie whom we haven't seen in a minute from another place. So I took my own advice from the first time here and made sure the high top was screwed into the pedestal and hence, Andrea's purse survived. Nice place. We will be in back for dinner soon.
