Very nice, I've been there 5 times and enjoyed my experience with everyone I treated to dinner there. Great decoration!!
It had potential to be such a good experience, however we got a table in the hallway away from all views. Making a reservation weeks in advance to only sit in a dark hallway was disappointing to say the least. The food was WAY over priced, especially for the amount. We got the charcuterie board and it literally had like three slices of bread and a few things of cheese. Honestly, I was pretty let down for the amount of money we spent. However, our server was amazing and he made it fun! 
The food was exceptionally good. I would eat the French toast weekly if I lived near by. The coffee cake was also exceptional. Ever member of my party enjoyed everything. The ambiance is fun. The impromptu snow storm gave us a smile, even if our table didn't get umbrellas. I will say, the bathroom experience is... Interesting and not for the modest (windows looking out to the farmers market). Also make sure to ask to be in the atrium or you miss a good part of the experience.
Very fun concept

Amazing ambiance! Food was pretty good too - ordered the octopus, sea bass, and braised beef; however, didn't come here for the food. The vibes were everything, especially the Christmas holiday decor! Service was excellent and definitely recommend for the experience.

Great decorations, good food and lovely staff but it was quite loud and we could barely hear each other at our table!
It was great everything, specially the winter atmosphere.

Would not take walk in without reservation. Only option was the bar and it was full. They had empty tables too.

I have been to Inside Out twice now and it was incredible on both occasions. The food and drinks are delightful and delicious. We were there for breakfast and they were able to accommodate a special request for my friend who does not eat pork. The service is top tier...and the ambiance is straight out if a fairytale! My first visit was in the springtime, so I had to return to see what had changed for Fall and they dud not disappoint. This place has such a fun vibe, great for ladies brunches, a date, or special occasion celebration.
Tonight was my second visit to this restaurant and just had to express how impressed I was with the service. Both nights were remarkable. The food is good too and the holiday decorations are amazing.

🌿 insideOUT – A Whimsical San Diego Hideaway 🌿
Walking into insideOUT feels like stepping straight into a living fairytale — twinkling lights, giant butterflies, and lush greenery in every direction. The atmosphere is pure magic, and what makes it even more special is that they change their entire theme seasonally, so every visit feels like discovering a brand-new world.
We started with the charcuterie board, beautifully presented with a rainbow of cheeses, fruits, nuts, and cured meats — every bite was perfectly balanced and fresh. The seared sea bass was absolute perfection: buttery, flaky, and resting on a silky sauce that brought everything together beautifully.
The service was warm and attentive, and the outdoor garden seating made the whole evening feel enchanted. ✨
Whether you’re on a romantic date, celebrating with friends, or just treating yourself, insideOUT is an experience — not just a meal.
