Reviews - insideOUT

Mediterranean, Californian, Bar-lounge

Reviews summary

The restaurant offers an unforgettable experience with fabulous cocktails, excellent food, and a dream-like atmosphere. However, some guests experienced rude and unprofessional behavior from staff members. Morning drinks are recommended, but for a quiet breakfast, look elsewhere. Despite this, the outdoor patio is a paradise with attentive waiters, amazing drinks, and delicious food. The holiday decorations enhance the already beautiful atmosphere, with elegant and well-prepared dishes. Overall, the restaurant provides a great dining experience with attentive service and the opportunity to enjoy seasonal themes and flavorful dishes. Highly recommended for a memorable culinary experience.

Was OpenTable Diner at insideOUT a mag?

Everything was great! I didn’t know what I saw on TikTok was during their seasonal themes. My waiter Tommy) was amazing and advised me on the best times to come back. Sadly I’ll be moving when it begins : , but it was worth it! View all feedback.

What AndreaC dislikes about insideOUT:

A lot going on here. If you are out for morning drinks would recommend. However, if you want a quiet laid back breakfast would recommend elsewhere. Not worth the 2 month reservation. View all feedback.

Some of the treats we have here are the; Chorizo shrimp Merman Shots ‍ Pork Belly Pistachio cheesecake Hot Stone Steak Really nice venue. Themed out for the holidays. Pork belly cornbread is sweet and the crust amazing. Steak not worth it but is decently priced. @inisideout San Diego, California @foodaholicpro

This place is paradise, an oasis from everyday life. It is always fun to watch new people who have never been there before walk through the door and be shocked by the overthe top beauty of the outdoor patio. The waiters are superattentive, the drinks are amazing, and the food will cause you to have a smile on your face

We love everything about this place, design, vibe, food, service and fun decor by the theme. We preferred to go here during the day, but we also enjoyed evening without the theme decor. Also this is the only restaurant that we be been lately that doesn’t have extra surcharge and doesn’t even suggest the tip which starts with 18% in most of the restaurants these days. We still tip well because as I said we love everything about this place! Cool place!

From the world ambience with the spring soase! I don't mind paying twice for dinner if you eat something like that. However, the proportions of food were smaller than expected.

What a special treat! That was such a fun evening. The spring experience was like a step into a dream by Willy Wonka. The food was supplied by good looking waiters in funny uniforms that are well paired with just everything. Cocktails were fabulous and also dinner. Very recommended!

I had no idea it was 18 and over. The decor I had seen in ad was not there. I was told only a couple times a year. It was super loud. Food and service were excellent. Our waiter Julian was a living doll. Salmon was outstanding! Pork chop and bolognese so good! Beignets were delicious!!!

This place is always great! Food was spectacular as I have been several times without trying appetizers which I now know are superb as the entrees.

We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant, from the moment we walked in and met Zander with his amazing personality to our excellent server Michael Grant. The food was amazing and we highly recommend listening to the recommendations. This restaurant is truly wonderful.

I visited Inside Out with friends for a little get-together during happy hour, and the cocktails were a great value and very affordable. Before my friends arrived, I ordered the shrimp appetizer and truffle fries, which were both delicious. In fact, they were so good that I ended up ordering another shrimp appetizer for my main course. Our server, who had a lumberjack-like appearance, was very friendly. The restroom was a bit of a unique setup and required some thought, but overall it was clean and well-maintained. Overall, I had a great experience at Inside Out and would definitely recommend it to others.

We went here after dinner at another place on a Saturday night. Chill vibes but also atmospheric and lively at the same time. The pond/pool was a very nice addition that brought a cool breeze about the place. Go here for a chill vibe night or to get a really good drink before going out to a nightclub or somewhere even more lively. Would love to come back here to try their food but we arrived too late.

Honestly this spot isn't good... it's great! The overall ambiance is astounding. The outdoor, tree house, rain forest vibe worked well, with a man made pond, waterfall and loads of greenery. The servers were all pleasant and helpful they even grabbed two umbrellas to cover our 4 person party when it started to drizzle. Food was incredible. We had brunch and everything was insane. I really loved everything; but personally had the Loco Moco with a side of potatoes and bacon... WINNING highly recommended.

Atmosphere is so cute! The servers are friendly. The drinks were fun and good. We ordered the chips and dip, which served 6 pretty well. I got the cheeseburger with sweet potato fries, it was pretty big. Definitely a cute place for a date or drinks with friends.Food: 3/5

Stopped in on Pride Sunday for a drink before heading to the festival in Balboa Park. insideOUT is always a fun spot for food and drink. It's a very lively and fun environment and a great place for drinks and crowd watching. We love going to this establishment and have been here many times. The food is very good and so are the drinks. You owe it to yourself to check it out!
