Came here for a date night, the drinks were good but the food offerings were hit/miss. Definitely more of a let's grab a quick drink with friends/bar hopping spot than a date night spot in my opinion. Their cocktail menu is simplified where each drink is just named a number then they also have sake and other alcoholic offerings. I got the No12 and my partner got the sake soda (he's a whiskey drinker but opted to try sake for the first time). The No12 was yummy with the rose infused gin, strawberry vermouth and aperol, I'm a fan of floral flavors so I really enjoyed this drink it was very mild with the flavors and not too strong. I will say if you're looking for aesthetic drinks this may not be the ideal place since it looked like all cocktails are served in the same type of glass just with varying garnishes on top. For food we got the tuna sashimi and the lobster bao buns. I will say for the price the amount of food was underwhelming. The tuna sashimi was actually really good, it had a great flavor profile with the garnishes that were on top, I would be tempted to get it again I just wish it came with more pieces for the price. The lobster bao buns were just ok, I wouldn't recommend them or get them again. The decor is really nice here. I loved all of the live plants that they had inside, definitely more of a classy jungle interior theme. I would say this place would be best for grabbing a quick drink casually, it was pretty loud when I went so it was hard to hear my partner from across the table but someone was hosting an event the night we went so that could have contributed to how loud it was. Service was pretty slow but they were busy when we were there so I'm sure it's better on slower days. We were seated and had to wait awhile for anyone to come by then even after our order was taken it took awhile for us to receive anything we ordered. Even when we were trying to get the check to leave it took awhile for us to flag someone down unfortunately. read more

If I could leave zero stars I would. Jocelyn the bartender took my Az Driver license ID and my Bf Drivers License. I just moved to Del Mar from Surprise Az. My boyfriend is in town visiting and I've been wanting to visit this place for awhile. Unfortunately upon walking in, the host was sweet but the bartender was unfortunately just an idiot. She took both of our licenses and said they were fake. After I told her, we need them to literally drive home and I'm going to call 911. She immediately gave back my bf license. After 10mins of being on hold with non emergency, someone from the back told her to give me my ID back but couldn't serve me. That's fine, glad they realize she was stupid and my license was real. Jocelyn get educated on ALL driver licenses and ID, don't want to look dumb again. read more

SAGO - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Encinitas, California

to be kind, the eating experience at SAGO was disappointing. on a couple of positive notes, the space is absolutely stunning and the wait staff brought their A game. whoever did the design work and whoever hired and trained the wait staff gets extra brownie points. EVERY person we interacted with was engaging and attentive to a point that bordered on hovering. dishes were bussed quickly. not sure if the kitchen's short on plates or if they're anxious to turn the tables. either way, I'm happier being fawned over than ignored. love Kate, our server -- a bit ditzy in a delightfully charming sort of way. I'm willing to give the bartenders the benefit of the doubt, but at the very least, our cocktail No. 9 (vodka, Licor 43, Lofty espresso, and coffee liquor) has recipe problems. couldn't figure out how to sort through my Yelp photos so I could count how many espresso-style martinis I've had, but it's more than a few and this version (and I'm particularly fond of Licor 43) was the worst I've had by a wide margin. brief note to Mr. Mixologist: stop trying to be so-o-o-o clever. you don't need to fix what isn't broken. the space, staff, and food are all gorgeous but eventually you don't just eat with your eyes, and the eats were no bueno. we went on a Sunday evening, and I'm pretty sure the regular chef had the night off and the dishwasher filled in. nothing was good, and two of the three dishes were borderline inedible. the MIE GORENG (spicy wok fried noodles, sesame ginger chicken, bok choy, Thai basil, green onion, and white sesame seeds) was the pick of a weak litter. again, lots of mie goreng pictures in my Yelp photos and theirs was the least enjoyable I've ever had. not awful but I wouldn't say it was good either. nothing exotic in the flavor profile. theirs was a greasy version with a little sweet soy of the noodle side at Panda Express. the CITRUS SALAD (red plums, haas avocado, plum vinaigrette, seed and nut mix, finger limes, and mustard frills) might have been okay if it wasn't drowned in dressing. the dish was prepared with the understated complexity of a sledgehammer and arrived looking more like an chunky chowder than a salad. when we finished, enough dressing had pooled in the bowl for Michael Phelps to swim laps in. the FRIED CHICKEN and CAVIAR (Japanese fried chicken, lemon grass aioli, and kaluga caviar) was an unqualified disaster. when I read "Japanese Fried Chicken," I was thinking shatteringly crisp karaage. what we got was KFC Original Recipe shallow-fried in warm oil. the chicken was less fried than gently confited. the gummy texture was off-putting like it had been poached in fat, a technique ill suited for a breaded product. we arrived a few minutes after they opened and I'm pretty sure the kitchen forgot to turn on the fryers and, by the time they did, there wasn't enough time to come to temperature before service. since the chicken pieces were cooked through, I'm guessing they were twice fried, the first much earlier than serving and the second in not-nearly-hot-enough oil. I hate walking out of a restaurant and checking both ways twice before crossing the street because I'm terrified I might get run over and die with the taste of a bad meal in mouth for all eternity. yeah, it was that kind of evening. ps: have had a solid back-and-forth with Dale who apparently enjoys elevated status in the SAGO command structure. he graciously invited me back for a do-over. I'm looking forward to an updated rave review. will keep you posted. read more

I stopped in for cocktails and was very disappointed. Somehow they managed to serve what may have been the smallest martini I've ever been given. The glass was filled with three oversized, cheap, rubbery blue cheese olives, leaving very little room for the actual cocktail, my boyfriend had one small shot of tequila. For $47 for two drinks , I expected much better quality and value. The drinks were overpriced and underwhelming. There are plenty of nearby restaurants serving larger, better-made cocktails for about half the price. Unfortunately, this experience wasn't worth the money, and I won't be returning. read more

I came here on a Sunday with a friend and loved it! The vibe and ambiance is my favorite, it reminds me of a jungle themed restaurant you'd find in Bali. The service was great, the food came out quick and I loved the music! My favorite was the egg white drink, bao buns, fried chicken and market salad! Definitely coming back! read more

While visiting San Diego, I was able to dine at Sago. My friends suggested this spot and since I used to frequent the area a lot back in the day, I was happy to be here. We were a party of 9 so there are no tables that can accommodate this size of a party other than the lounge seating. It was like a night club seating so we could not eat like on a regular table. We had 3 small tables and asked the original server (bus boy) if we could grab the other small table that was between both seating area and he said he needed to asked but never came back. Eventually the server came. Service to me was extremely slow. Although she was nice, it sucked at the same time. We all ordered drinks and the drinks were very weak. I ordered 2 old fashioned drinks and no buzz at all. The next day I dined at another restaurant and ordered an old fashioned and I was a bit tipsy. Clearly watered down drinks are served here. My 2 old fashion drinks cost me $38+tt. Food: Mei Goreng Balinese Pork Satay Lobster Bao Buns Tuna Tartare The Mei Goreng was delicious. I loved the al dente udon noodles. The flavors were on point. The Satay was ok. I preferred the wagyu skewer that my friends ordered. That was delicious. The tuna tartare had a nice bite. The chip it came with was a bit nasty. I've had really good rice crackers at different restaurants and unfortunately the chip was not good. Lastly, the lobster bao buns were devine. Delicious!!! That and the mei goreng were my favorites. Overall, the food dishes delcious but the drinks and service lacked for me. read more

At SAGO, Lamar was our waiter, and he was absolutely incredible. From the moment we sat down, he was friendly, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable about the menu. He took the time to explain dishes, offer thoughtful recommendations, and made the entire experience feel elevated and effortless. What really stood out was his personality--genuine, engaging, and attentive without ever being overbearing. It's rare to come across service at this level, even at high-end restaurants. Lamar made the night memorable, and his professionalism and energy truly enhanced the entire dining experience. He is a real asset to SAGO and a standout in the hospitality industry. I can confidently say this was some of the best service I've had in years. Ohhh ya, and the food and vibe was incredible! read more

We stopped in here for drinks and a snack before our reservation at another restaurant nearby. The drinks were very good and interesting! I got the No. 4 and really enjoyed it. We also grabbed the ceviche, which was amazing. All of the staff were super friendly too! It definitely has a fun city-vibe bar feel, which we don't see much in North County. The space is really cool inside and would be great for a date night. We definitely want to come back and try the lobster bao buns! read more

It's a really cute place, a great vibe, very fun. The fish dishes were great. Be wary of any poultry. I sent chicken back twice because it was raw inside. It was never cooked through so I just didn't eat it. Oddly there was another customer that night who had the same experience. I personally wouldn't go back but my friend who was with me definitely would for the raw fish dishes. read more

This place is tucked i Encinitas , but honestly tho! Even La doesn't have this! So unique, what a hidden gem! The moment you enter, it feels like you are transported to Miami jungle ! The music are so cool, chill, danceable. They played deep / afro house music. After 11, it became like a bar with dance floor. For food? Damn. It beyonds my expectation. Their blend for SouthEast asian fusion with American are really not bad! Not like authetic but it is more than decent! I order their mee goreng, satay, wagyu steak for 3 of us. Good place for girl night out. read more

My New Favorite Restaurant! I honestly think this might be my favorite new spot! I tried it for the first time about a month ago, and I've already been back--twice! The vibes are amazing, the service is top-notch, and, of course, the food is out of this world. I would literally recommend trying everything on the menu, but if you're looking for must-tries, go for the tuna tartare, the cucumber salad, and the fried chicken with caviar. Trust me, you won't regret it! I can't wait for my next visit read more

Service - 5/5 I love San Diego because it's so similar to the service of SF vibe of friendliness and always asking us if we are satisfied. Ryan was our waiter. He was very nice, quick and responsive whenever I needed anything. Food - 4.8/5 - The ceviche with those Chinese shrimp chips hit the spot. Mmm hmmm! Mmm..mmm! The noodle weren't so good too much salt. Everything else was good. Salmon was good too. Ambiance - 5/5 The service DJ - Gabriel was so nice when I went up there and asked him to play a song. He was psychedelic with his funky sounds and they turned this restaurant into a club/VIP lounge for dancing after we were finished with our meal ! read more

Sago is truly the best date night or girls night out spot in San Diego!! the Asian fusion food is absolutely incredible, I love how it's all very easy to share as well.

I had reservations for 8PM on a Friday night. We arrived on time, only to be told they were "running about 15 minutes behind." No problem... except 15 minutes somehow turned into 30, and we weren't seated until 8:30. What made it worse was the hostess seemed completely unbothered by the delay. Every time we checked on our table, it's like she forgot about us and would ask for the reservation name again. We had to gave the name four separate times. Once seated, I ordered the wagyu steak -- they were out. Fine. I switched to the NY steak special they were actively promoting on the table menu... also out. I was over it at this point. Unfortunately, this was my first and last visit. I do not recommend this restaurant unless you find joy in being disappointed over and over. The food itself was mediocre at best: Food: 2/5 Service/Management: 0/5 read more

I was walking around Encinitas and a friend recommended Sago, so I stopped by. Google said they opened at 3 PM, but the doors were locked when I showed up around 4. I called and they said they actually open at 5, so just FYI, the hours online on google aren't right. The menu was a little hard to read at first, but everything we tried was so good. The Cucumber Salad was honestly one of the best salads I've ever had - super refreshing, a little citrusy, kind of like a green curry vibe but lighter and more tangy. The Chicken Satay and Noodles were both really solid too. They were already out of the Tuna Sashimi and Fried Chicken and Caviar right when they opened, which was kind of surprising, but hopefully just a one-off thing. We got the Banana Old Fashioned, which had a nice banana aroma - I just wish they'd brûlée the banana on top like a crème brûlée instead of just slicing it. Would've been next level. They only had chocolate cake for dessert and said they're still working on expanding the menu (we didn't end up getting the chocolate cake and instead went across the street for dessert). The space itself is really cute and vibey though - perfect date-night or girls night energy. It was quiet since we went right when they opened on a Sunday, but I bet it gets busier on other nights. Overall, loved the food and the atmosphere. Definitely coming back to try more items. I wish I could do a 4.5 star as I did really really like it and would definitely go back, just wish they weren't out of so many things right from the start. read more

If you're looking for vibes, this place has the tulum-esque atmosphere you're looking for a casual night out or a date night. But read on... My partner and I had the Crudo, Mie Goreng, and Wagyu Flank for food and to be honest it was rather mediocre. The Wagyu was WAYYY over cooked and well done despite us asking for medium rare. The crudo was sparse and more of a taster than an appetizer for 2. Mie Goreng was also decent noodle wise as it was al dente and cooked well but the sparse amount of bok choy was laughable and the noodles could really benefit from more of its supporting cast. That said, the presentation was nice for all dishes though and I appreciate the plating and dishware. The real disappointment was on the drink for me. I had the N10 (Pineapple rum, dark rum, cointreau, orgeat, lime) which one would generally assume is a Mai Tai variant. Unfortunately the end result was what tasted like a watered down drink from a dive bar in PB.... on the flip side though the N9 (Caramelized Pineapple, Tequila, Chili, Pina Colada Foam) was the type caliber of cocktail I'd expect from a place like this and was full of flavor and body that fit the environment. read more

I wish i could have written a nice review. everything was good up until the end. Let me just start, ive seen the 1.5 hour limit reserved to your table, however something doesn't sit right with me. Years and years of going to fine restaurants and never once has anyone approached us for taking too long, and telling us they are waiting to put another table here. But it happened once the young lady came up to us to say she wished my grandma a happy birthday but that there are tables waiting. Genuinely my perception of the whole restaurant changed in a split second. We felt rushed, unwelcomed, and not treated fairly in comparison to the table next to us that had been eating since the moment we had arrived. Just because we ate quickly and wanted to enjoy drinks and talk towards the end does not mean we should be rushed out before them? Mind you it took a good 15-20 min to get a hold of our waiter that ended up disappearing at the beginning, so how is that our fault? Honestly gave me such a poor image of this restaurant. Staff is kind and ambiance is nice, but the way the overall restaurant is run just makes it very disappointing. Such a nice celebration turned into quite the shock for me and my family, and was something we had never experienced before and seems completely rude and unprofessional from such a "nice" establishment. Millions of other restaurants exist and im sure never in a million years would they approach us this way, because like i said this hasn't happened in my life. I can tell they tried to be nice, but the facts are still there, and we couldnt have been 10 mins over the limit finishing up our drinks we had ordered with our dessert. Honestly just unacceptable and ruined the mood completely. The most annoying part was seeing all the people that were still there that we saw walking in, but since we ordered the check early while still eating this happens. read more

Sago is such a great place to meet friends for drinks or have a nice night out. I came here a couple times now to catch up with a friend, listen to music, and celebrate my friends' birthday. Food here is tapas style so I recommend eating your volume before you go or have plans to eat after (especially if you plan on drinking). The espresso tinis here are amazing, and the wagyu skewer was to die for it was literally so good my friends and I almost cried. I recommend tasting their chardonnay as well if you plan on having some of the tapas, they compliment each other well. As for the ambiance it's spectacular!!! The interior is such a good jungle vibe, and ironically enough when we went for my friends birthday they were playing jungle house as well!!! I think the vibe is well curated here and I love that you can stick around for the sets. Service here is also very good and I can't wait to continue making this place a part of my Encinitas-night-out routine. read more

I had a very disappointing and concerning experience at this restaurant. During our visit, multiple phones were reported stolen. When we used location services to track one of the devices, it repeatedly showed that the phone was still inside the restaurant. Despite this, staff would not allow patrons to re-enter or make any meaningful effort to help locate the missing devices. What made the situation even more frustrating was learning that the restaurant's security cameras were not operational. This information was not disclosed, leaving affected customers without any footage that could have assisted in determining what happened or aided law enforcement. Management assured us that they would personally check the premises and promised to contact us the following day with an update. Unfortunately, they never followed through on that promise. Instead, it took multiple attempts on our part to get in touch with the restaurant, and communication was difficult and inconsistent. Having to repeatedly reach out after being assured they would contact us only added to the frustration and sense that the situation was not being taken seriously. While I understand that businesses cannot prevent every theft, I expected greater transparency, functioning security measures, and a higher level of cooperation when several customers were affected. The lack of working cameras, refusal to allow customers to search while the phone was actively pinging inside, and failure to honor commitments to follow up left a very negative impression. I hope management takes steps to improve security, ensure surveillance systems are functioning, and establish better procedures for assisting customers in situations like these. Until then, I would strongly encourage diners to keep a close eye on their belongings and be aware that support in the event of a theft may be limited. read more

This spot hit all the marks tonight: ambiance, service, food and drinks. The corner location is beautifully designed with a dark jungle vibe and rich woods throughout. Parking is limited to some small lots that fill up quickly and often as well as mostly street parking. Service was top-notch - friendly and attentive. We were checked in on frequently, food came out very timely, and drinks were never dry. The menu is a variety of Asian fusion small dishes, which was perfect for ordering and sharing multiple things. Tonight two of us ordered the tuna sashimi, black cod, mei goreng, Australian wagyu flank and jidori chicken skewer. Everything was excellent, from plating to execution. Every flavor was delicious and bold. Will definitely be coming back!! read more

We went to Sago last night for dinner and drinks, only to leave having my phone stolen, along with several other patrons. By the time I realised it was missing, Sago was closing. I immediately returned to see if it had been dropped somewhere, but staff would not allow any of the patrons whose phones had been stolen back inside to search, even though Find My iPhone was showing that my phone was still inside the venue. We were told they would investigate and contact us the following day, but I have received no feedback or communication from Sago whatsoever. It was highly disappointing to be met with such a lack of urgency and assistance, especially given that multiple thefts had occurred. I understand venues have policies at closing time, but some compassion and proactive support in a situation like this would have gone a long way. What is particularly concerning is that so many phones were reportedly stolen from the venue on the same night. It seems very strange that multiple patrons could have their phones taken in one evening, making the lack of communication and follow-up even more disappointing. Very disappointing experience overall. read more

Interesting and unique food, good nighttime vibes at SAGO! I had found this spot on Yelp and decided to make a last min reservation. It was easy to do so, and there were still slots left on the same day. The food menu was fairly extensive, with larger entrees or smaller tapas depending on whether you were there for a full meal, or just drinks. Although the items were a bit on the pricey side given the serving sizes, this was already to be expected. My boyfriend and I shared 4 dishes between us, and we were both full but definitely not stuffed. The drink menu was also interesting, and I appreciated that it was listed in categories (like experimental) depending on what kind of drinks you gravitate towards. The drinks were strong but had great balance of the non-alcoholic elements inside! I enjoyed my gin/strawberry/balsamic vinegar drink, and it was just the right amount of risk for me (balsamic was not too strong). Towards the end of our meal, the DJ came out to the booth and started spinning live music. A few bigger groups came in around this time and you could tell the energy was starting to pick up to the clubbier vibe they have later nights. If you're looking for a nicer, tamer meal an earlier reservation is definitely nice, but otherwise this spot is great for a date or night out! read more

We came to Sago in Encinitas to celebrate my mom's birthday, and it was such a great experience from start to finish. Our server, Lamar, was amazing! Super attentive, friendly, and made the whole night feel extra special. The space itself is beautiful! So lush, tropical, and totally transportive. It honestly felt like we were on vacation for the night. I ordered the #2 cocktail and loved it, it was light, refreshing, and just the right amount of sweet. When it came to the food, we basically tried almost everything on the menu, and there wasn't a single miss. Some of our favorites were the cucumber salad, pork satay, soft shell crab, and the mie goreng but really, everything was delicious. The general manager even stopped by our table a few times to check in, which really stood out and made the whole experience feel top-tier. If you're in San Diego or even just passing through Sago is 100% worth the visit. I already can't wait to go back. read more

I've been to SAGO twice now and both experiences have been 10/10. The food is amazing, everything that I've tried has been delicious. At this point I think I've tried almost every item on the menu. I actually dream about the chicken tenders with caviar and the crispy broccolini. The drinks and mocktails are also amazing depending on your preferences. Both times that I've gone have been weekends and they have a DJ playing. Makes me feel like I'm in Europe in the summer. The service is always good. I always ask the servers the most popular items or their favorites and both times have not disappointed. read more

Such a cool bar. It's like stepping into a dark tropical rainforest. Stopped by on a Friday with co workers while visiting San Diego for a conference. We were seated right away without a reservation early Friday evening. I would recommend making a reservation. It was pretty busy by the time we left. The cocktails all looked good but I went with their take on an espresso martini with a hint of snickerdoodle. It was a smooth martini and not too sweet or bitter. The food is tapas style. We ordered some greens, the lobster bao buns, the noodles and the wagyu beef skewers. Table favorite was the lobster bao buns and second the noodles. We ended with a serving of their ube soft serve to share. Service was fast and friendly. Very cool and hip vibe perfect for a night out. Adding to my San Diego spots. read more

Upon walking in, we were not greeted for probably about 10 mins until we waived someone down. While waiting, I did admire the decor and the place was beautiful giving me Tulum vibes. The bartender came to greet us and asked us what we needed. We then said we had a reservation. Then, he asked the name and guided us throughout the restaurant and told us to sit wherever we pleased. We might as well have not made a reservation at all. Once sat, our server was Katie(sp?). We ordered chicken skewers and a bottle of Chablis. Those were pretty good. Katie was very kind and semi-attentive. I wanted to order more food, but no one ever came back around. After asking someone to get her, we ordered the steak skewers, but I could not eat them. They were too tough. I asked for a split bottle of wine, but Katie brought two wine servings to substitute since they didn't have a split and said it would be comped. After Katie left, a person named Octavio took over. We got the bill, and the comped wine was still on there. We requested the manager for assistance, and he came out to hear about the mediocre experience. His name is Anh. He ended up taking the bottle of wine off the bill and told us to come back and try the place again. I will be returning to this place hoping for and expecting a better experience. read more

Came to eat here for a friend's birthday on a Wednesday night. Had an amazing time thanks to our amazing server, Lamar. He went above and beyond to make sure me and our party of 7 were comfortable and enjoying our meal. The place itself is gorgeous and the vibe is immaculate. The lighting and the decor is so elegant and sexy, and it's a great place for photos. The food was good! Nothing was bad nor was anything exceptionally good, just good! No leftovers to take home as it is a tapas restaurant. It is a little pricey for the portion you get. I didn't leave feeling full but had already spent a bit more than I'd like on food and drink. Otherwise, our server Lamar is the reason why I give this place 5 stars. Thank you, Lamar! read more
