Everything was fantastic as usual besides the Wedge salad was soaked, soggy and overtossed but we were starving and ate it anyways. Staff was on point and the entire meal was delicous!

Luke was a great server! Super attentive and gave great suggestions. Food as always was amazing.

We've dined at this location to celebrate many birthdays and order the steak board. It felt like our board was a bit skimpy compared to other times. Would suggest beefing up the boards as this was very noticeable. Otherwise everything was good.

The table was ready when we arrived. The service from Alex was amazing . We had a great meal w the Hamachi Crudo, Artichoke, Parker rolls and Steak board. Great cocktails! Look forward to our next visit.

Terrific Celebrated my husband's birthday as a surprise Signed Birthday card by staff waiting at table Food delicious Artichoke was crazy Hannah was great, attentive, informative, a delight

Service was superb in every way. Terry never wrote down an order for our table of five and got it perfectly! Everyone's favorite was the lamb lollipops. Soo tender and savory. The executive board was so flavorful and beyond tender. A terrific meal and celebration. Noise was a bit loud for us. But it tapered off.

We got to the restaurant and there was a hold on the table because of the previous party but they were really helpful and willing to get us seated at our reservation time. I will definitely be back!

This is the very best restaurant in all of San Diego County! If you chose to dine here, you will be treated with the finest service and served the most delicious food. Our experience at Rare Society was among the very best dining experiences of our lives.
Maureen
Delicious steak dinner with all the yummy choices from start to finish. Beautifully decorated for the holidays. Excellent, friendly server.

We had a great celebratory dinner at Rare Society. I feel at places like this you need to know what to order, meaning if set on a great steak, don't waste your time on appetizers. The steaks were amazing. Our waitress gave us a perfect recommendation for the wine too. Finishes dinner with a fantastic creme brûlée.
One of the best meals we've ever had anywhere ever, everyone at the table agreed. Meat was delicious but all the sides we tried were outstanding.

We had a wonderful experience thanks to our server, Moriah. From the moment she greeted us, she went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Our original table wasn't the best, and even though the hostess wasn't able to move us, Moriah stepped in right away and found us a much better spot without hesitation. Her attention to detail, warm personality, and genuine care made our night so much more enjoyable. Restaurants need more people like her! We'll definitely be back—and asking for Moriah again.

Hostess was welcoming, wishing us a happy anniversary, presenting us with a card signed by the whole staff. Server Luke was on point with his hospitality and wealth of knowledge regarding the whole menu including the cocktails. We sat outside which they kept at a perfect temperature. The food was simply delicious and satisfying. A relaxed upscale experience without the pretentiousness. A fabulous evening all around.

Thoroughly enjoyed the flavors of all we ordered. Service was very good. My reason for the lower value rating is 2-fold. 1: we ordered Mac &Chz and were offered the opportunity to add lobster to it, which we did. Normally it comes as +$26 add on to the mashed potato side and includes an au gratin sauce. When we got our order the lobster was VERY light - felt like no more than 2oz, if that.... And the add on charge was upped to +$30 for some reason. This was not shared when ordering. 2: we were there for a birthday and the server advised they had a “little something “ for us to recognize it. We explained that we were stuffed and really not dessert people and didn't want to waste it, but were told “it's not big, just a little something” ... so we conceded. It turned out to be a scoop of ice cream which ended up being added to the bill - +$6. So basically, - the lobster was severely lacking and they up-charged another $4 on the original up charge - charged us for a dessert we didn't ask for & they chose for us. In the grand scheme of things, $10 of charges we didn't expect on top of a $450 check isn't much.... But it dampened our overall experience. Normally I would have said something at the restaurant, but was asked not to by the birthday guest.
