I was in the area with a friend, looking for a place to grab lunch and we happened to spot this restaurant in the corner of a shopping plaza. It sounded OK and we didn’t want to keep looking, so we decided to try it. SO GLAD we did!

I’m here now and it’s absolutely delicious ! I was surprised how good it is after I read some of these reviews. I got a huge watermelon drink and the roasted chicken with plantains. It’s more of an upscale restaurant inside than a hangout. It’s a perfect place to bring a date. I’m a hot female n I approve of this place. There’s great live music too! The prices are actually fair for what we got. It’s a restaurant not some fast food place. Not expensive. Not cheap. I recommend ordering extra sweet plantains cause they are fire! Service was great we had Paula. Everyone’s raving about how good their food is and clapping for the musician playing. A woman raved about her salmon and her 5th grade son scarfed his burger down. I’ll be back for sure! Wow.

This is an absolute gem located in Carmel. A real blend of Spanish/American fresh cooking, full of flavor. We were entertained with a wonderful guitarist who sings as well. Make the trip. Support local eateries.

We had an early dinner and the food was excellent. Erika was courteous and prompt. The Famous Cuban sandwich was perfectly made. Get the lemon chicken I stole several pieces from my spouse. Prices are reasonable and a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend!

We watched this restaurant being constructed during covid. That in & of itself was courageous. We just saw the channel 12 news report on what this restaurant, it’s owner & staff have been going through. Disgraceful! We couldn’t wait to move to Carmel, & we can’t wait to move. Such a beautiful area, but the level of hate, fueling racism, & homophobia make it a dark & ugly community! This isn’t making America great, it’s making America hate! For God’s sake we ALL have red blood!! Keep serving up your wonderful food, & stay strong! We stand in solidarity with you. God bless!!!

Not sure if its different in person but through uber eats this place is terrible! $87 for stale/over fried food. My boyfriends burger came on a stale bun that broke in half, and the meat was pretty much raw…the fries either were cooked in old oil or just left in the fryer for too long, my rice tasted like it was out for hours. So disappointed ugh

This is my first review ever. We went for Mother’s Day. Great food. Great owners/staff as well as entertainment. Love that they have artists come and sing/play/perform. Can’t wait to go back!!!

The name is deceptive. I thought this was a coffee shop for the teens hanging out at the local movie theater. But it turns out, The Hangout Cafe is actually a great little restaurant, serving up meals my whole family loved in a semi-upscale-feeling but totally unpretentious setting. Great for a night out with friends, dates, or any night you don’t feel like cooking. Generous portions. Full bar. Attentive service.

I just spent almost $90 for a delivery. The order was wrong. The food that we did get wasn’t great. I was very disappointed because I had heard great things about this place and was hoping it would be good since it’s local. Very disappointed. Paula did say she would refund me for the one item that was incorrect. I hope she pulls through because Carmel Diner didn’t.

We decided to go for some live music, and was very pleased with the hip vibe and cool decor. The food was awesome, from the salad to desserts. The music was great and really help set the ambience. The service was very sweet, although a few times not attentive, but the music kept us entertained. I would highly recommend this hidden gem! We will be back for sure.
