Is Rare Society worth it?

Paying for the Scene. Harry scores Rare Society 81/100 for quality and 75/100 on the Worth It scale for San Diego. One caveat: You're getting an experience. Whether you needed it is up to you.

Two straight years on the Eater 38 for San Diego is a real signal — that list isn't handed out for a steakhouse that's just coasting on a scene. The review numbers back it up more than they usually do for a 'fashionable' steak-and-cocktails spot: 4.5 across 536 Google reviews and 4.2 across 678 on Yelp is a tight, consistent read, not the usual split between a glossy crowd-pleaser and a skeptical local base. No Tripadvisor presence and no price confirmation leave some blanks, but the core data points the same direction twice.

One card, one verdict. Pulled from current data, not a stale snapshot. Want the methodology? How Harry scores.
