- JJoeVIPSan Diego •16 reviews5.0Dined todayWe had a great dinner at Inside Out. The service was really great and the food was fantastic. We have been many times before and have always had good experiences. But somehow it feels like the restaurant has really stepped it up. We will be back very soon.More infoinsideOUTPrice: Expensive• Californian• Hillcrest•4.8
- RRalphVIPSeattle / Eastern Washington •69 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoHad a wonderful first visit to this restaurant, service was great, friendly and helpful. Everything we tried was unique, well thought, and especially tasty. We had hummus and fresh pita which was best we have had anywhere. The little fishes and chips were so good and unusual, a must try also. The burger was great and had a super mix of flavors, great soft bun and was up there with best cafe style burgers anywhere. Really looking forward to heading back to this special place.More infoBoujiemanaPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Serra Mesa•4.7
