Restaurant of the Week | Dinner with Strangers in San Diego

When was the last time you did something completely spontaneous? Our series groups together complete strangers for a fun night out. You sign up, and we book the restaurant, which is different each week. Our mission is to host dinners in over 100 cities to bring people together while supporting locally owned businesses. This micro-event is intended to be for 5 people or less. Check out our feature in Eventbrite's 2025 TRNDS report about embracing the micro-event trend.

How does it work?

After you register, you'll be emailed an introduction message including a quick questionnaire regarding age, hobbies, interests, and dietary preferences that we use to select restaurants for the night's group.

*Your registration does not include your individual food and drink purchases but simply commits you to not bailing on the group!

*These outings are intended to help people make friends. These are not singles gatherings.

*The pin on the map IS NOT the official location, but a placeholder Eventbrite gives for your city.

Our vision is simple: we take the no gimmicks approach to networking. No need for yet another app to take up space on your phone - just four walls and a roof and good food for people to connect :) We coordinate with you directly, human-to-human.

If you have any more questions, please contact [email protected]!
