    Enjoyed an awesome dinner with friends on the patio this evening ... Trevor was our wonderful server, very attentive and responsive. I loved my entree, Honey Fried Chicken ... a fav and it didn't disappoint! My friends loved their salmon entrees, salmon was moist and tender. Great evening, thank you HideOut!

    Enjoyed lunch out in the patio. Perfect for a sunny day! Lunch menu has lots of tasty options. Prices are to be expected when looking for a more upscale experience.

    Excellent waiter. Took care of us. Had us moved to another table to get away from a large group of loud young women. We all loved what we ordered - Frittata, Tacos, Kale & Pancetta Salad. Very popular place. Reservations are a must!

    Eloquent dining room. Fun bar. Great outdoor seating. My pork silog was bit dry but the garlic rice was delish. Good portion. Hamburger on the smaller side for the price. And $1 extra for the eggs that were already part of the dish wasn’t mentioned ahead of ordering. Otherwise great service and place for an enjoyable meal.

    We had a really good time tonight. We had reservations for 5:45 and we hung out for awhile and it felt like we were getting rushed out at the end of our visit. The dinner was $280.00. I think that matters to not feel like you should be rushed out of having a great time. Our waiter was incredible! I am not sure if I will come back because of how the night ended. The food was incredible and I had to convince my very good friends that I was paying tonight. Thank you for listening, Kathy Hallberg
