The poor customer service overshadowed the decent food. We placed a reservation through their website and the server was very rude when we came in time for it read more

The food was really good and the staff was super attentive. They also were very friendly towards our baby and helped keep him entertained. We would definitely go back. read more

Food was leftovers Eggs were under cooked Potatoes were left overs No refill on coffee The sauce was not fresh tasting cold and runny read more

We checked out the Hangout's new location in Walnut Creek. Whenever we go out for lunch/brunch, I always check to see if eggs benedict is on the menu. This place did not disappoint. I was a bit worried about ordering the ube pancakes (I was unimpressed at a different restaurant in the past). However, the pancakes were delicious that even my hubby enjoyed it and he's not usually into anything with ube. He was also pleased with the crispy chicken burger and generous portion size. We loved how they offered our dog iced water too Thai Iced Tea Ube Pancakes Crab Benedict Crispy Chicken Burger read more

Was not impressed after reading all the high recommendations of garlic noodles. One reviewer stated an odd or unusual taste. I detected the same. Presentation of entrees was well done.. seeing other entrees delivered. Service was ok. Ambiance could be a little warmer.. read more

A huge welcome to our newest neighborhood restaurant! This is an American-Asian fusion restaurant. Expect some unique flavors Waitstaff very friendly and provided excellent customer service. Clearly experienced and trained well. Wait time for food was a bit long but came out hot and fresh so we knew it was not sitting around. The servings were generous and the food was very good. One thing that was confusing was the menu. After talking to the waitress, let me offer some translation: - "Pork Wine Sausage" = Port Wine Sausage (I think?) - "CK Apple" = Chicken Apple Sausage - "Garlic Pork" = Garlic Pork Sausage - "Crispy Potatoes" = NOT Hash browns, NOT American Potatoes. Red potatoes cut in half - "Butter Milk Pancakes" = Fruit-covered pancakes Probably all very good though based on what we had. Worth a visit! read more

Not your run of the mill place to eat. They put their own spin on traditional dishes with just the right amount of sweet or savory. Don't be afraid to order one of the specialties, you can get bacon and eggs everywhere, be adventurous! read more

Great vibes, good food and service. Highly recommended! As soon as you arrive don't forget to check in.

The food is super fresh and delicious. Generous proportions. Lovely wait staff. All-together a great experience.

Amazing food and service. Bus and TA were great, can't wait to come back! Highly recommend

This break was perfection. And I don't say that lately. Pictured is the Egg sandwich with Bacon and Cheddar Cheese on Chibatta bread. It was the best egg sandwich I've ever eaten! The eggs were cooked just right, fluffy and not overdone, the bacon was smoky flavored and not too salty. The melted cheddar was just the right texture and brought it all together on 3 perfect slices of ciabatta bread..The sandwich had to be cut before I could, get a bite! I really enjoyed this. It's one of the best egg sandwiches I've ever had. My friend ordered two eggs with fried potatoes and toast. This dish came with maybe six small whole potatoes that were fried and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. They were amazing. Also had 2 cups of cappuccino that was perfectly done. Along side of fruit, it seems the chef must've selected each fruit individually. At this time of year he was able to find sweet strawberries, plum p sweet blueberries, grapes, and oranges. It was delicious. To top it all off, we ordered as side of bacon jam, which was wonderful with a little bit of heat to it. I really enjoyed this breakfast and will definitely be back. read more

I love their food! It's very good and looks pretty when it arrives at your table. Food is fresh and hot. Service has always been friendly so far the past 4 visits. When you ask the wait staff for something they are always agreeable and do not act inconvenienced. Atmosphere is family friendly and kind of loud but what do you expect for families, young adults and children. Very clean restaurant, clean floors, average restroom. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Food was amazing!!! Large portions and lots of flavor. We got the chicken and waffles, chicken Katsu curry and the garlic noodles. The Thai tea pancakes was delicious as well!!! The staff is great. Friendly and attentive. Restaurant was clean and cutely decorated. Will definitely be going back to try other dishes read more

Ube pancake is the best! Amazing breakfast. Go to the one in Walnut Creek. New place and the ambiance is great. Service is quick. And they serve the best coffee. read more

Very delicious food here I would recommend this place 10/10. May was our server very sweet and nice fantastic service. She was able to change my order mid way before it was too late. The food coming out of the kitchen was look so delicious something you see out of an anime. read more

I recently visited the new location of "the hangout". all the staff was amazing , adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. It was clear that this resatuarnt has quickly become a favorite among locals, as every table was occupied on a Saturday night. Walnut Creek was in need of a new, hip restaurant like this and "the hangout" certainly delivers! -I can't wait to be back for more. Congrats to owner and the entire team for creating such a fantastic dining destination! read more

Lovely waitress. Ugly place, next to McDonalds atmosphere. A real estate agent told us to go there for Chinese. No Chinese food. Hang out omelette was greasy and lardy. The garlic noodles full. The benedict just ok. The french fries were great. The prices were ridiculous even for the Bay Area. $11 to add 2 eggs to your $19 french toast read more

My family and I very much enjoyed our lunch here! We only had to wait for about 5 minutes at noon on a Sunday. I was ready to wait for longer, so glad we didn't have to as we have two small kids. We ordered the Monster Hotcakes to share between me and my husband plus a side of the potatoes. Ordered the Chick Pops for my 5 year-old which he loved. The restaurant is pretty big with lots of tables but we didn't have to wait long for our food. Our waitress was also super sweet as she interacted with our kids. We will definitely be back! read more

I ordered a ham and cheese omelet. Even though they had the ingredients they refused to make the omelet. They explained that the owner has rules against customized omelets. If you get a craving for a"build your own" omelet this is not the place for you. read more

No drinks,two appetizers and one entree came to$65 (incl.tip). The food arrived cold and lacked flavor. The seafood spaghetti lacked flavir and was partly over-cooked.The cheesy corn was canned corn smothered in greasy cheese which arrived cold and was exchanged. The fried cauliflower was the only tasty dish we ordered. We left half of our meal uneaten. I'm sorry, its just another Walnut Creek disappointment in dining. The wait staff were polite, tried to please, but the food was meh. I want to see restaurants thrive at this shopping mall but they all come up way too short. Just to be fair,we'll try their breakfast before our final assessment. read more

You can't go wrong with any of the dishes! The food is great and the staff is so attentive and nice. Can't wait to return. read more

My husband and I had breakfast here this morning and had a great experience. First, we called to see if they had outdoor seating because we had our dog with us. The person was so kind on the phone it made me want to go there. We got our table and before we knew it, our server brought a water bowl for our dog. On top of all that, the food was delicious. My husband ordered the ground pork with rice with a fried egg on top. I ordered the sausage scramble. I like that you can order a salad instead of potatoes. The dish that my husband ordered, ordered it medium spicy but was kind of too spicy for him. Half way through our meal, we switched plates and the spiciness was perfect for me, but I like spicy. I would definitely go back again. I'd like to try the loco moco next time. read more

Good breakfast. Eggs and potato. Nothing amazing but good. Breakfast for two $60 with tip. One mimosa and one coffee. Eggs only no specialities. read more

I don't usually write a lot of reviews, and I grew up with the saying that if you don't have anything good to say, you just don't say anything. However, for the amount the meal cost, I feel compelled to say that I was less than impressed. We arrived around 11:30. It was busy, but we were pleasantly surprised to be seated so quickly; however, we were seated practically in the middle of a walkway, and staff had to maneuver around us. The 2 tables on either side of us were complaining about their orders being either missing items or for being wrong. We ordered our meals, and I ordered a cup of coffee. When the meals arrived, it was not hot, only warm, and the fried potatoes were cold. I was given 1 piece of uncut toast and 1 pad of butter. I finished my coffee, and the waiter asked if I would like a refill. I never received a second cup. The water was served without straws. I'm not on here to complain, we dined and we paid, but I feel like it will only be a one-time visit for us. Too many other breakfast places to go to, I will wish them well, but for me, it's a so-so. We asked how long they had been open in this location, and we were told 2 years. I would have thought they would have been better organized and more efficient in that amount of time. Nice staff, lots of smiles, just a mediocre meal, and a bit expensive for the experience read more

Great food. This was our third visit. One of us really likes the loco moco and one of us thinks the fried chicken and waffle is a treat (3 big pieces of tender fried chicken and a belgium waffle). Service is variable. Today was super slow with a waitress that didn't seem to have much experience waitressing there or anywhere else. read more

Great service, everyone is friendly and accomodating in spite of a very busy morning, and awesome and delicious food and drinks, i will come back again if we are in the vicinity area. read more

Great food! Delicious and a nice variety. We went on a busy Sunday. We had a short wait for a table, as they didn't take reservations, but we had a party of 10 for a birthday. There was definitely a language barrier with the staff, we had difficulty communicating a few things. But the food was delicious and the staff was nice. read more

One of my new favorite brunch places. I've never had a fried chicken benedict, but this one made me a believer. The ube pancakes were also delicious. A typical pricey brunch menu, with their scandalous charges for any add-on managing to be atypical even for a trendy brunch spot. Just don't try adding any eggs to your order or god forbid, avocado, and you'll walk out having paid the price one generally pays for a brunch indulgence, a delicious aftertaste on your tongue, and the burning desire to bring all your friends. read more

I love everything about this place. The food and the service were on point . We took our mom here for lunch and she enjoyed it every much. Will come back here again for sure read more

Gave it three tries. Two breakfasts and one lunch. The staff is lovely. On the last visit, I ordered the chicken sandwich. The chicken was too greasy. My husband liked the garlic noodles. Our breakfasts were just okay. Given how expensive it is, I doubt we will return. read more

The quality and care of service here is unmatched. This reasonably priced, family-run restaurant has a team of customer service people that are ever present, but never annoying. the food is delicious and well-made and the prices are surprisingly reasonable. I highly recommend this restaurant and will return often. read more

Food was very good! I was happy to find out that they had Gluten free bread as an option for the toast! First time i've seen it! It was SUPER hot in the restaurant tho. They just had a big fan going at the time. read more

I had the standard scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes and toast. I was impressed with how well they were made and the friendly service. The restaurant was pretty full, had a good atmosphere. We did not need to wait long for our food. They also offer creative brunch options -- I recommend. read more

OMG finally a good breakfast place in WC. The Ube pancakes are phenomenal and the service is excellent. Highly recommend.

10/10 my friends and I dressed up as guady old ladies. We had so much fun with our waiter. They were quick with the punny come backs and fast with the drinks read more

The food itself tasted great! What was disappointing was that my food item, the Ube pancakes, took so long to come out that the majority of our party had pretty much finished eating their meals. We had 5 people in our party. All of whom had more complicated orders other than pancakes and yet, those came out last. It was also annoying to see that when our bill back, we had a mandatory gratuity of 20% added to our balance because we were a "large group." I don't consider, 2 adults and 3 kids a large group. After our visit, I looked it up online but it was bothering me and according to a new CALIFORNIA LAW, as of July 2025, restaurants are no longer allowed to add additional surge charges to the price listed. This includes mandatory tips. So over the food was good but because of their pricing policies, I would not return. read more

So happy to have found this place. A short drive for us and plenty of parking. It was booming this morning but there was no wait and we were seated right away. I wanted to try the ube pancakes and my husband wanted the chai Thai pancakes. I was really pleased with the flavor. Mine were mildly sweet and my husbands were more savory with the chai flavors. Both were fantastic. The service was great all the staff were very helpful and quick to refill water glasses but never obtrusive just very attentive and pleasant. The coffee was very good too. All the menu items looked great I look forward to coming back and sending my kids here as well for the good food. read more
