Food is great, a boneless chicken biryani is my fave. Order from here all the time now.

A friend and I drove from Colorado Springs to try their breakfast dishes. The restaurant seating is very comfortable and has a casual vibe. We tried idli, vada, dosa, and upma. The vada was our favorite. The chutneys and sambhar were good, but I can't tell you what types they were (coconut, tomato, and something with ginger). The idli and vada also came with sambhar, and I would order an extra portion of sambhar next time so we could each have our own, flavorful. The idli is very simple, and I didn't expect otherwise. The vada had a lovely crisp texture and mild oniony flavor. The upma was a brand new dish for me. I wasn't sure what I thought of it after the first few bites, but the flavor and soft texture (similar to Cream of Wheat cereal) kinda grow on you--lightly seasoned and has a small amount of chopped vegetables, curry leaves, and maybe cashews. The dosa was also very good--very thin, slightly lacey edges, very nice flavor. We also had chai. It came in small paper cups and was unsweetened so that you can add sugar to your taste at the table. I would like this place even more if it had a menu that was a bit more explanatory. Also, the chutneys seemed to be the same with each dish (maybe that is normal in an Indian restaurant, but I have not had Indian breakfast in a restaurant elsewhere). The service was friendly, we enjoyed the food, and the prices were very reasonable. I am likely to return to try some other things.

Breakfast at hangout is really comforting and peaceful. The quality for the methi vada N idli is good. The service is warm and people are nice.

Hands down the BEST Southern Indian food I've experienced in 5 states AND having traveled to Pondicherry and New Delhi- it might even be better than any places I've had there! The rice alone might have up to 15 ingredients. It's just a solid value, totally consistant too. Maybe the service is different to American standards but pretty normal for India and personally that's what I love about the The Hangout Place. Get the chicken curry and Dum bryani and all the appetizers are amazing!

Homely food!!! Not like a typical Indian restaurant style. Hangout place became my weekend go to place. Ordered almost all of their biryanis. Good taste and sufficient quantity with decent menu pricing compared to other Indian places nearby. Chicken fry biryani is not really "fry" and of a diff style. Uttapam is must try.

A very good value when you get enough superb Indian food for 2 and I was only one. Prices VERY reasonable for superb cuisine. Best Indian in Denver. Folks of India came thru to sit and eat or pickup. Nice Indian music in background. A complex meal came out in 10 minutes with delish biryani's. Spice can be adjusted accordingly, of course. If you're over their way. Come and get it! Highly recommended!

We stumbled upon this place and we were so glad we did! The service, while a bit slow and maybe forgetful at times, was still very accommodating and nice. Everyone who worked there had a smile and was willing to help. We were most surprised and delighted by the pani puri appetizer station with a server handing out various flavors for us to try. Super fun and delicious. The food was too spicy for my kids and some were too spicy for me even though I love spice. One area they could improve is the service time and the servings of bread. We needed much more bread for our meals. When we ordered more, they did not seem fresh and had the texture of reheated tortillas in a microwave. Loved having many flavors to choose from. We'll certainly be back because of how kind they were in explaining and suggesting. Thanks for the great service.

I was hungry but it was very late. I call ahead to make sure they would be open. I did not know what to expect. My family enter this fine establishment with an open mind and 3 empty bellies. The vibe here was casual and family oriented. The wall had a large projection screen, TV displaying Indian music videos. Which was fun and entertaining. The dining area was full of color. All the entree's here were created with love and fully authentic. The hand crafted triangle Samosa Chaat is a crispy pastry with a tender warm center. The authentic Chicken Curry is spicy but delicious. This is my first time trying Gongury Mutton. I am glad my server suggested this entree. Chicken Tikka Masala is my favorite dish we ordered hands down. Each dish was paired with a tasty bread. I enjoyed the large portions of each delicious dishes. The chi tea here changed me. It truly is the best in town. Also the Mango Lassi drink is thick and full of fresh fruit without any extra fillers. I encourage you to check out my photos

This place is still starting up and does not have the best seating. But the food is good and has good potential to grow. It's taste like real South Indian food - so expect it to be hot and spicy
