    Lobster tails 4 for 20dlls so good!
    Cristina P.

    I've been to this restaurant many times, this time I took my sister, I had lobster and my sister had fish tacos and shrimp cocktail. As always it was delicious, the beans, the rice and handmade flour tortillas excelente. The drinks we had also were good, Michelada and Margarita. It was Tuesday afternoon so it was nice and quiet with a beautiful view. The waiter was attentive and we had excelente service!

    I came here on a tour from Disney cruise and from my experience the food was top notch. This was the first time I've tried fried lobster that wasn't battered and it was quite the quality. Super fresh since you can see the water nearby, it was definitely caught and swimming the day before. I loved the hot salsa which was legitimately spicy with the chips. Service was great and we had a mariachi band serenading us. Great food in Puerto Nuevo if you're just visiting or live here!

    Delicious lobster dinner

    This small bar/restaurant will surprise you. They're hamburgers, fries and nachos are really good…read more Service was excellent as well. Only a few steps away from Puerto Nuevo Hotel.

    We were stoked to find Score 33 on a recent trip to Rosarito! I had reached out to some locals to…read moreask about SPorts bars for watching the NASCAR race on Sunday afternoon and this was one of the recommendations. Although it's not the comfiest place to kick it for three and a half hours for a race, it was a really good experience, and the owner, Karen, is an AMAZING mixologist!!! There were six of us and we sat at the bar facing one TV she set up for us to watch the race on. There was one other group on the other side of the bar, about eight of them, I think. Everyone was eating and drinking and I, being the DD, was only allowed to have one drink per hour BOO. But, I made the most of it. Karen REALLY knows how to make an old fashioned and when I asked her to make one with her best Mezcal, she did and it was FABULOUS. My bestie, wanted a Mezcal cocktail, too and Karen made her one with apple and jalapeno that she loved. The boys drank giant beers. We also tried out some nachos, wings and my dad got a baked potato. The potato was the only disappointment in the experience because it was on the hard side, but otherwise, we had a fun afternoon and really enjoyed getting to know Karen. Its right next to Puerto Nuevo, so a nice place to have cocktails before your lobster dinner and ask Karen to make you something delicious. She really is awesome. Also, if you have some sports memorabilia you're letting go of, a donation helps this SPorts bar have a lot of fun decor to look at. They even have a front bumper of one of Joey Logano NASCAR Fords. Will DEFINITELY return and totally recommended.

I'm glad that it was a much better experience than what I expected. The restaurant is two stories high and has a beautiful view of the ocean. I also loved all the Mexican decor and how bright and spacious it was. The food was delicious!! The lobster was my favorite, really meaty and tasty! I ordered their special which comes with a fried fish, lobster, shrimp, beans, soup, salad, a margarita and freshly made flour tortillas! I couldn't believe the amount of food the special order had. The service was amazing! They welcomed us with a big smile, the food was out quickly and someone was always there for anything we needed. We will be back soon!

    If you are looking for delicious, with a great view and reasonably priced this is the spot! So many…read moreother places are pricey down here now. We have been coming here for 25 years and we bring different friends and it has never let us down! So perfect! Highly Recommend! It is not the fanciest, it's a bit rustic but for the price and flavor we love it! Get the lobster special and it comes with a margarita, beans, rice, fresh flour tortillas, limes, drawn butter, and salsa. So delicious, traditional, and filling. The menu has other seafood and non seafood items. Sometimes a mariachi or a norteño banda will play. Tip: ask the singers how much they charge per song before you start requesting. Some charge between $10-$20 per song. It gets hot in the downstairs deck so bring a hat, sunglasses, and a coverup. They do have a tarp that covers partially. But you cannot beat the sun and the salt air! Service is always wonderful! Same staff has been there forever! Parking: When you pull up to the front they usually have a few spaces reserved for the restraint we always tip the parking guy. He watches to ensure your car is safe. They have indoor seating upstairs with a good view. But I like outside better! I wish I could give 4.5 stars because we love it but some upgrades are needed, some walls are insider construction. Clean restrooms.
