San Felipe Restaurant Reviews: Sweet Spot Bar & Grill

The Sweet Spot Bar and Grill is a little piece of red, white and blue in the hot and beachy town of San Felipe. The menu consists of some delicious American BBQ favorites, complete with perfectly seasoned fries and BBQ sauce that you will want to lick off of your fingers. For a little taste of American cuisine in the heart of Mexico, The Sweet Spot Bar and Grill is great place to sit back in front of the many flat screen TVs, watch some football (Americano) and enjoy the breathtaking view of the Sea of Cortez from the dining room or private patio. For those who can’t get enough Mexican food, the menu offers a few classics to satisfy everyone in the group. One stop here and you will understand why locals refer to is as “The Best of the Beach in Baja!”

Located at #162 on the Malecon, The Sweet Spot Bar is in a prime location for people watching and relaxing alongside the shimmering Sea of Cortez. The Malecon (or boardwalk) is a long stretch of “anything is possible” along the water. Live music, poker tournaments, seafood festivals, street performers and various Mexican vendors make their appearances on the Malecon regularly. Set against the gorgeous blue sky and sea, The Malecon is a great way to experience San Felipe in a completely different way. Shopping, restaurants, and beautiful people align the sidewalks of the Malecon, making it a perfect people-watching spot. Whether you come for lunch or dinner, your experience at The Sweet Spot will be one you remember for a long time. Inside, you can soak up the cool air conditioning as you enjoy your meal in the dining room. If you want a meal with a view, grab a seat on the patio or at the bar. You will not want to leave this shaded patio by the water, and at night as the sun sets and the night owls come out, you will be in a prime location to watch busy San Felipe turn into a sexy and exciting hot spot. If you are staying in a luxury home on the prestigious El Dorado Ranch Resort, you’re only 20 minutes from this San Felipe must-see. The Sweet Spot Sports Bar and Grill stands out amongst its neighboring competition with its bright colors, comfortable seating and breathtaking views.  No matter what time you’re walking by, you’ll notice chairs and tables full of satisfied customers having a great time. This place stays busy pretty consistently, but the service is top notch and prompt, and you never have to wait for very long.

The owners of The Sweet Spot are not the types who sit back in their office while the staff does all of the work. They are completely hands on and involved in every aspect of making The Sweet Spot as wonderful as it is. Don’t be surprised if owners and managers like D’Andre or Vincent make their way over to you, pull up a seat, and start to share stores and laughs with the whole table. You may have met them as you walked by The Sweet Spot, as they are always out front handing out flyers advertising their mouthwatering specials and cocktails. The owners and managers have even been known to suggest other great local places to eat (not as good as The Sweet Spot, of course) that are a must-try. They’re dedication to ensuring their customers have the best experience in San Felipe is their top priority. It is rare to find a restaurant as friendly and service oriented as this colorful and one-of-a-kind sports bar. The service team at The Sweet Spot Bar and Grill is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and serves your beers, cocktails and main courses quickly. If you’re not quite sure what to order and need a suggestion, they won’t just pick the two most expensive dishes and hope you go for it. They take the time to ask you what you like, what you are in the mood for, and how hungry you are. They make personalized recommendations based on the information you provide, and they are usually spot on with their suggestions. If you are starving and craving some classic American fare, they may suggest the brisket or the pulled pork. Both meals come in portions that are practically falling off the plate. Piled next to these BBQ favorites are hot and crunchy French fries that you will not want to share with anyone else. If you are still full from breakfast and want something a little less filling, order the chicken kabobs, you won’t be sorry! If you can’t get enough Mexican food, join the thousands of people who rave about the Corvina fish served with fresh veggies. Word on the street is that bartenders create one mean glass of Sangria, and you can’t leave this place without trying a glass (or two..or three..) of this fruity goodness.  The mojitos and margaritas are also a hit amongst patrons, and come carefully crafted and in oversized portions.

The atmosphere in this friendly family sports bar is casual and comfortable. Take advantage of the pool table, and TVs mounted both indoors and outdoors, so you won’t miss one second of the game. And just as the atmosphere is fun and family friendly, so are the excellent servers. From the moment you walk in, you will feel like you are a regular there. The servers interact with kids, and joke around with adults as well. With a cold drink in your hand, the sea breeze on your face and good friends around you, you’ll never want to go home.

When the bill comes, you’ll be pleasantly surprised that you just spent the afternoon eating incredible food, sipping on ice-cold beer and laughing with new friends for such a reasonable price. This is why once visitors to San Felipe find The Sweet Spot, they make it their go-to restaurant for a delicious dinner and a great time on the water.

If you leave The Sweet Spot Bar and Grill with anything but a full belly and a smile on your face, check yourself for a pulse.
