Went to Sweetwater twice and it was AMAZING both times. The mushroom orecchiette dish was so good, and my coworker ordered the steak frites which were also fantastic. The truffle fries were delicious. The baked brie with Ritz, berry compote, and ciabatta has me dreaming of recreating it at home. Just WOW. We also tried the katsu sliders and they were deliciously yummy. This place is perfect for a quick date or a full dinner. Awesome dark ambiance with no annoying lighting, and it was service dog friendly too.
Let's start with the ambiance. A very speakeasy type of place with dark wood and rustic decor. Service was top notch, bar staff was on top of everything and provided suggestions as well. Food, amazing. I had the baked brie and the progies and they both had amazing flavor I finished the night with the peanut butter salted caramel brownie and it was out if this world!
One word to describe Sweetwater: swanky. Tucked away in an unassuming section of Boynton/Delray, Sweetwater is a cozy gastropub with a stylish vibe. On my recent visit, love seemed to be in the air--four couples were fully immersed in some serious PDA. The staff struck a great balance between relaxed and attentive, making the experience feel both comfortable and upscale. While the menu is on the pricier side, it's in line with what you'd expect from a quality gastropub. I ordered the Parmesan truffle fries--massive portions and perfectly crisp steak fries made it a standout dish. Overall, Sweetwater is a cool spot, ideal for a hot date.
Finally decided to check this place out after driving by it for long time. So happy we did! It was not at all what I was expecting. It was better! We sat at the bar to eat dinner. Maggie, the bartender, was super helpful, giving us some history of the place. She also makes some very tasty cocktails. The food was delicious. We had the cauliflower hushpuppies, wedge salad and the steak frites. Their menu changes often to accommodate for fresh, seasonal food items. There is a speakeasy kind of feel to the place. Dim but not too dark. Just the right ambiance for a date night! We will definitely return.
Such a fun place. Staff is always nice and on point. The ambiance is part of why we go here, it's almost like a speak easy. The food! Omg! They have a rotating menu I believe it's every season, that is amazing! My go to is always the new recipe of the season short ribs and baked Brie. Then we try any other fun items. The Cuban empanadas were definitely good. If you like a charcuterie board theirs is pretty good, rather basic tho. This is a must go!
I love coming here. Drinks are always on point. Nice bartender and severs and the food is delicious and very presentable. The drinks are very crafty. Runs about $16 and up for a drink. Place is a little dim, sometimes more than dim. They play great music and later into the night, turns into more of a lounge. I always order the bacon slab, although it's thinner than before. Almost like they cut the bacon in half. I guess inflation is hitting everywhere. The bake Brie is also very delicious.
We came here during October, and I loved how the Halloween decorations added to its original ambience. We ordered some drinks and apps. The parmesan fries are addicting, and roasted carrots pair so well with the ricotta cheese and hot honey. For drinks, I recommend the espresso martini. I do wish there were more vegetarian options other than salads for the entrees, but everything we ordered tasted delicious.
We stopped by Sweetwater for drinks and dinner. Walking in, it felt like we had stepped back in time to a secret speakeasy. The dark wood, old-fashioned lighting and walls full of "liquid gold" spirits was warm and welcoming. The staff was very friendly and ready to create a great dining experience for us. We were hoping for a robust happy hour menu and were a bit disappointed to see that there were no food specials and only a handful of happy hour cocktails. We decided to try a couple of those: a spicy margarita and the Berry Bramble, which consisted of vodka and berry puree. Even though my friend requested a lower level of spiciness for the margarita, it was still too spicy for her. The Berry Bramble, while flavorful, did not have much alcohol and seemed watered down with a lot of ice. I wouldn't order this again. Several of the numerous cocktails on the drink menu looked good though. We created a tapas-style dinner by sharing a few items from the menu: - Ceasar salad with an unusual and delicious sun dried tomato dressing - BLT flatbread with baby tomatoes, candied bacon pieces, and arugula with a nice garlic aioli drizzle. This was a tasty item albeit somewhat expensive at $26. - Jamaican oxtail eggrolls with a side of au jus and a spicy sauce. A delightfully interesting flavor combo with a nice exterior crunch and a creamy meat center! - Lollipop chicken, which are chicken wings with part of the bone stripped clean to cleverly create a lollipop look. This dish comes with a side of creamy blue cheese dip. Beware: the sauce on the chicken is essentially a spicy buffalo sauce, even though the menu does not mention this. We enjoyed the chicken and commented to the server that the menu should have indicated it was a spicy item. - Hand-pulled wedge of mozzarella with tomatoes, toast, olive tapenade, and a roasted garlic. It was an enjoyable dish as we could mix and match the components in varying quantities based on each person's tastes. This is a good item for sharing. Overall, we had an enjoyable meal with a wide-range of interesting and tasty dishes in a fun setting.
The wife and I were in the mood for something new and exciting and we found Sweet Water. I can tell you this place is perfect for a night out. Our waitress was Aaliyah and she was amazing. She was Informative and very friendly. The food was amazing. We ordered hand pulled mozzarella it came with glazed toast points, prosciutto, roasted garlic, diced olives with a charcuterie style presentation. Also got a couple more appetizers that blew us away. We had drinks that came recommended from our waitress and she nailed it. The decor was great well decorated with a dark ambiance with plenty of eye candy. We left very happy, couldn't stop talking about our night out and can't wait to go back.
Came with my friends on a Wednesday afternoon and loved everything we had! I wasn't expecting much of the food to be that good but all the ingredients were amazing. Our server was very attentive and helped us picked the best things, unfortunately I do not remember her name. The place is pretty cozy and might be a cute spot for a date night! I forgot to take pictures but will probably come back for everything
Drinks were amazing but small and pricey. "Cruel Summer" For appetizer we had the "Street Empanadas" which you have to eat each bite with the elote crumble or the chicken tinga had no flavor. The Korean BBQ tacos were drenched in Hoison so I wasn't able to have more than one. The Shrimp Mofongo is more of a Shrimp Mangu cause it was made with sweet plantain instead of green plantain. Our waitress was very nice. Ambience was very nice.
Was looking for good happy hours in the boynton area and google recommended this restaurant. It's right next to the One Boynton apartments but I was surprised when it offered a free garage-like parking. Took me just 2 minutes walking to arrive at the restaurant. Upon entering, I immediately noticed the dim lighting (which I loved) and it wasn't too busy so we were sat right away. I ordered the Baked Brie--soooo good, you've got to try it! For my first drink I ordered the Spanish Inquisition, it was alright. However, I was intrigued by the spiciness of the Spice of Life drink so I ordered that one next. Very unique as it had sriracha in it, definitely didn't pair well with my entree but it wasn't bad. I wish I would've ordered the Pachuco instead but maybe for the next time!
Love this spot, it's a gem to boynton beach. Inside has dim lights with a prohibition vibe. Any whiskey or bourbon you could request is probably inside there. So many bottles they have shelves going around the entire interior. Can be pricey but the quality is there. In today's world of mediocre service and cuisine you'll know every time you'll get what you pay for here. I love the cauliflower hush puppies, the Korean tacos and poke tacos when they have them. They always seem to have a good bread pudding every time I'm there as well. Cocktails are unique with some ingredients that aren't your norm. Explore a little and try them! Thank you sweetwater for just being you.

This place is definitely a little hidden so you'll need to really look for it. As soon as you walk in this place leaves an impression. The whiskey collection is unreal and super impressive, they have every whiskey you can imagine. The dark moody ambiance is amazing and will definitely make you lose track of time. All of the food here is absolutely delicious and amazing and you can't go wrong with anything. I also had the most amazing margarita I've ever had in my life here. You have gained a loyal customer with me at this restaurant. Will most definitely be back!!!! read more

Popped in for a quick Happy Hour after work and Sweetwater did not disappoint. Service was fast and friendly, drinks barely had time to be finished before we had another and the food was tasty too! The panko crusted sliders may be my new favorite bar snack! read more

Au contraire, to sound extra pretentious. I would hope Boynton would…

My absolute favorite place! The food is a 10/10, atmosphere is 10/10, and the drinks are OUT of this world. There's no better bang for your buck. The service is always on point, with bartenders that remember everything you like and don't like every time! No matter how many different places I try, Sweetwater stays in the #1 spot. read more

When choosing a place to meet for dinner & drinks with a friend, we decided on Sweetwater as it was halfway between where we both live! She had gone before and had done a private curated cocktail experience, so she went online and made a reservation for the same thing! This sounded very exciting! However, when we got there, to our surprise... they no longer offer this experience because the person who did it was no longer with the restaurant. The link to make this reservation should be removed or at least notify someone so that they reach out and let us know!! So now we are at the restaurant, with no "real" reservation and we were told we had to wait the normal wait list time - which didn't seem fair at all. The only reason that I am not leaving a negative review is because after all of this confusion and disappointment, we were able to get served pretty quickly and everything was really great, and all thanks to our incredible server, who I unfortunately can't remember her name! :( We went to the bar in the back, ordered a couple of cocktails and we sat at high top table next to the bar. The drinks were brought over to us, and our lovely server came over and got us taken care of right away!! Drinks - We ordered the Spanish Inquisition and Death & Taxes - DELICIOUS. We may have ordered a couple more of each. Food - We started off with the Cordon Bleu Empanadas. These were incredible!! And for our entrees, we got the Wild Mushroom Conchiglie and the Short Rib Gnocchi. Very very good! Overall, I enjoyed Sweetwater. Beside the earlier disappointment, I would still return and recommend!! I would also to tell you to keep in mind that this spot is pretty pricey, but I thought it was worth it for a nice occasion. read more
What a hidden gem! I'm not from Boynton area so when my friend recommended Sweetwater I was sort of skeptical. As soon as we entered I knew we were greeted by such a friendly atmosphere. The restaurant feels cozy and the staff are so warm and welcoming. Their drink menu has a lot of variety. I ordered the Tokyo Drift, it was refreshing and light. For food you can definitely do tapas style if you have a few people in your group. We got the baked brie, short rib gnocchi, scallions pancakes, Brussels sprouts, and poke tacos. Our favorites were the gnocchi and pancakes! Everything else was super tasty and satisfying as well. The only thing I personally wasn't a fan of were the Brussels sprouts, they lacked crisp in my opinion. I'd love to go back and try more drinks and food menus! Great spot in Boynton! read more
