    insideOUT was such a cool and fun experience! I would love to stay in the “oasis” part of the restaurant next time instead of at a standard table, but regardless the ambience was wonderful and the food was even better! So cute and lively for a fun brunch vibe and service was also amazing.

    We were visiting from Indianapolis and looking for a quaint Italian restaurant, we found just what we were looking for! The meatball appetizer is amazing, best meatballs we've ever had, and we always order meatballs to judge an Italian restaurant. The tableside cheese wheel pasta included sundried tomatoes and shrimp, not to be missed! Other notables, pizza and chicken parmesan too. The staff was welcoming and provided a great dining experience in addition to the meal.

    North Park’s best kept secret: this fine patisserie serves dinner, transforming the minimalist patisserie decor with tables, white tableclothes, candles, fresh flowers and so forth into a venue for fine dining. And the dining is memorable. My wife and I agree, this was the finest restaurant meal we’ve had since we moved to SD four years ago. Chef Brad is a gem. Waitstaff is knowledgeable, efficient, friendly, and professional. Don’t be afraid to try anything. Every bite was delicious. Just go and enjoy! Ruth and Ron
