7 Best Cocktail Bars near Encinitas

“I recently visited Sago for a girls night and had truly the best time! The atmosphere feels straight out of Tulum, and provides such a fun dining experience. Our server Lamar was extremely attentive and helpful, especially when dealing with an allergy at the table. The food was fantastic and had excellent presentation. Definitely recommend everyone try Sago in Encinitas!“

“Casual spot with some of the best poolside food! The beer and tequila clams were some of the best I’ve ever had and my steak frites was cooked perfectly to medium rare. It typically comes with chimichurri but I couldn’t have that, so chef prepared a delicious garlic and herb compound butter for me instead. Thoroughly enjoyed how delicious my meal was and it was made all the better by great service and atmosphere. Attentive service from Zack and an all round fantastic dining experience with some fabulous views of the sunset.“

“great sound, and stage. often there is a drum set and bass amp. Jay Cain is a great host!“

“Great concept, like an In-N-Out that also serves alcohol. They have a very small and simple menu but everything is done very well, basically the definition of quality over quantity. The bartender Jeff was great, and the cocktails were excellent- like actually really good and I don't say that often. Prices were very reasonable for the area.“

“This restaurant has it all. The food is excellent with the best flavors of Mexico's finest dining experiences. The vegan options are delicious, not just an afterthought as is usually the case in so many restaurants. I had the Caldo de Piedra which is a very flavorful seafood soup and which wasn't overly spicy but just spicy enough. It had a wide variety of the freshest seafood, and was brought out in a steaming rock bowl. A chef made our guacamole right by our table side with the freshest ingredients, and then they handed us the best, tasty, house-made tortilla chips. That was a unique and creative experience. Our main server, Christian, was attentive and charming. The whole evening was outstanding.“

“Good selection of traditionally made additive free tequilas“
