Elicit Bar & Lounge

What a great addition to East county. Gaslamp bar with mixologists and great food. Ask bartender Tony to mix you up any drink with your favorite booze. Sushi bar is great and Friday and Saturday night they have a DJ.

Ordered the Singing Hills Roll. As you can see in the pictures, the tuna was waifer thin and not more than an inch square. More rice than anything. Plus it was $16 for that!

Had a good time, excellent sushi. Went on a Thursday night for “all you can eat sushi”. Didn’t over-order, but was a little disappointed that they threw away the left over sushi rather than letting us take it. We ordered quite a few drinks and were into the bill for $250. ...we obviously were not cheapskates taking advantage. ...the policy just seemed wasteful.

Very Disappointing. I had reservations at 5:45 for 3 and the hostess took 5 minutes to "give us a place to sit" even tho there were only 2 tables taken. She sat us in the way back, with this tiny round table, too dark and had to take a chair from the neighboring nice table that was open. Our server came over, took one look at us and said, "how about I move you to a much better table because I can't believe you were put here". That was the ONLY good thing about our experience. So she moved us to one of the open 10 tables but we weren't in her section anymore. Too bad. Our new server wasn't attentive at all. My ice tea sat there empty for 15 minutes or more. We all ordered our own Oysters on the half shell and the spicy chicken wings. New server comes back, they are out of oysters. Wow. Okay. I ordered the Pork Belly Bao Bun. Server comes back, the pork belly won't be done for about 2hrs. REALLY??? So we had finally had it and just had sushi rolls because apparently Thursdays are all you can eat rolls for $25/person. They were ish. You can get that anywhere. The only good roll really was the Dragon Roll. High five on that one. Oh, and the hand roll was really good but I've never had a hand roll before so I can't compare. Either way, I'd give it 1 star except for the super sweet server that moved us to an ADULT table instead of a nightstand, and the dragon roll was super yummy. We won't be back.

Took myself to Sycuan Resort on a staycation and wanted to treat myself to a nice solo dinner. Had the seasoned edamame, veggie bao buns that were incredible, and two virgin margaritas (non-drinker). Sushi is all you can eat on Thursdays! Inside is very upscale but patio seating overlooking the pool and dehesa valley is my preference. Better service than I expected as well… very pleased.

This atmosphere is a very sexy and romantic. It’s inviting and cozy. During COVID they do a great job with spacing and social distance. They have a bar and plenty of seating. I loved the fireplace and the view of the pool. The food was good but I’ve had better. It was more of the experience more than anything. The staff was friendly and attentive, made sure we had a great experience. I would recommend it.

Celebrated my birthday here Whitin minutes of arriving at the casino floor a representative came up to me wishing me happy birthday have me a b'day pin , b'day candy bar & I received $20. Free play as well as $20. Comp. We enjoyed brunch @ this Incredible restaurant . I had the lobster Benedict. Big chunks of lobster eggs perfect poach over big bed of hash browns my wife had 2 eggs, biscuits & gravy home made biscuits 2 sausages over bed of crispy hash browns. Awesome food, great quality, reasonable prices. Our server Dominque was incredible. Personable, efficient, friendly and informative. After our awesome brunch she brought me out a slice of double chocolate fudge cake for my birthday full on decorative with chocolate & raspberry sauce. Oh with 2 chilled forks.. Complementary!!!!! What a great birthday. Love this place. They know how to treat people!!! Tip Dominique well. She deserves a huge raise. Oh the view here is incredible 😍

Ordered drinks, 10 minutes later ordered our food. Food came before drinks and about half of us got incorrect orders. I upgraded my ramen to include the lobster tail, and received the lobster tail but not in the ramen I ordered. We asked for our check and 30 minutes later, hadn't received it, so left the table and told the hostess to come find me on the casino floor. They left 10 messages on the person who booked the reservations phone and finally found me on the casino floor. I'm normally a 20+ percent tipper, but left them nothing...this was the low point of our otherwise awesome staycation.

I'm a fan of Suerte Cantina. My roomie picked this place to eat for lunch, so we drove out to Sycuan Casino on a Saturday afternoon. It looks like Suerte Cantina opened in November 2023. Their focus is on Mexican Food and in creating diverse, delicious, simple, but sophisticated dishes that represent all of what Mexico has to offer (from Baja California to Oaxacan inspired Mole Enchiladas). Between the 2 of us, we tried: - Fresh Guacamole - Flautas De Pollo - Fajita (with Beef, Shrimp, & Chicken Combo) - Enchilada (with Chicken) We each tried a different cocktail, but for the 2nd cocktail, we both ended up ordering La Calavera (with Mezcal instead of Tequila). Fave! The drink was made with Campari, Dry Curacao, Lime Juice, Agave Syrup, and Activated Charcoal. Came in a cool skull-shaped glass. We tried their Choco Flan for dessert. Food was delicious. Freshly made. Only complaint was that our table wasn't big enough for the food we ordered! Ambiance was casual and colorful. Service was fast and efficient. ENJOY!

Our bartender/mixologist was amazing, wish I could remember his name. I order a speciality drink & It was tasty, it wasn't exactly what I was looking for but it was good. I asked for drink with tajin on the rim & got my Mexican candy drink. It was delicious. This drink isn't on the menu but it should be. I was celebrating my birthday & got complimentary churros. The service was on point & the bartender was checking on us constantly. I look forward to going back and trying some of the dishes or appetizers. I love the ambience & the decor. This place has a cool vibe and I believe an outdoor patio.

Was at the Casino on a Saturday afternoon and decided to try the new Suerte Cantina! The inside is so fresh and filled with colorful Latino art and decor. They also offer patio seating as well as little stands for your coat or bags! Off the bat, our server Nico did an excellent job at recommending the best food picks and drinks. He told us that the Fajitas house platter was a good choice! On this day we chose not to get any alcoholic drinks, but they all looked very delicious! We saw how another customer was given a drink that was presented in a little case and it smokes out, so maybe we will come back and try that! Food: Complimentary Chips & Salsa: 5/5 Crispy and fresh chips made with tortilla. I could taste the oil on them HAHAH!! All the salsa given to us was good too, my personal favorite was the nacho cheese and the salsa verde! We finished it before our entrees, and Nico even offered us some more! Birria Tacos: 3/5 I'm a huge fan of birria tacos and consome, but their tacos did not hit I was a little sad because the meat was dry and hard to swallow. I still finished my food though. The consome lacked substance as well... it felt like it was missing something. It was just soup without all the other meat that you would typically have in it. I felt like I had to pour consome and salsa over my tacos to save myself from choking on the meat. Fajitas House Platter (Beef, Chicken, Shrimp): 4/5 I throughly enjoyed the fajitas platter, as it was paired with tortilla on the side and I made my own burrito with the beans, rice, meat and salsa given to us. My favorite was the shrimp!! To be honest the shrimp had more flavor than the beef(steak). For that, I rate it 4/5 because the steak was hard to chew through. There was some good pieces and some not. The veggies were perfectly seasoned to my taste palette. Overall, excellent service. I think the Birria tacos were not worth the price point. Fajitas are a yes, and they can be shared for 2 people! I will have to come back and try their drinks.

Came here on Mother's Day for lunch. Delicious salad! Great service! Nice and cool on the patio with an overlook of the pool area. Only minus was the drink was $17!! Would come again though

Came here to Sycuan for a quick trip and saw they replaced Elicit with Suerte. Overall, I think it was a good decision. First, I think it's good that they have a Mexican option now at Sycuan as it helps "diversify" the cuisines a bit more than the past. And Second, the ambiance was definitely a fun, cozy atmosphere and was a welcome addition for sure. Service was pretty good! Friendly and quick too. We did get our "appetizer" quesadilla after our entrees and the food runner called it "dessert" quesadilla lol Overall food was good, definitely really hefty portions. The highlight though was definitely the margaritas. Very good! Overall, if you are looking for a Mexican spot in the area, I definitely recommend this place

One of the benefits of this place is that it's pretty. I love the decor, with the art featuring notable Mexican artists such as Frida Kahlo. There's a wall of golden, which is a perfect backdrop for a gram post. However, the food and drinks fall short. Drinks: El Verado. Very heavy on the alcohol with not enough lime juice, tamarind, or syrup. I tasted the El Catrin, and the flavors didn't not go well together. My friend had this and she was so unhappy that she only took two sips. I even had the red blend wine, and it tasted like it wasn't fresh. Apps were super plain. Salsa was guacamole was bland, not enough lime, lemon, or salt! The fresh guacamole only had three chicharrones! I'm super disappointed. We also ordered the esquites, which had either lime or lemon juice in it. This does not compliment the dish at all, and we just took a few bites and left it alone. The shrimp tacos are a decent size and had the most flavor out of anything I've eaten. In an attempt to save this meal, I ordered the chocoflan. The flan was not creamy, had no caramel drizzle, and the chocolate cake was a tad dry. I've never felt sad after a meal. Customer service was good, however.

Came to the casino to celebrate Father's Day every thing was going good the server was great until we were ready to leave he sold us a drink to go I had explained how I like my drink served the first one was served just how I like it he offered a drink to go I figured he would make it the same way as the first one nope I let him know and his whole personality changed to a different person. Really disappointed! He was doing great until then. Will I come back probably the tocos were really good! I was going to leave a one star review, but I decided to come speak with the manager the manager apologize profusely, nice guy we had spoke with him while we were having our meal. He brought over the chips and salsa after speaking with him, he took care of the situation and that's the only reason why I'm giving them a four star review would've been five star all the way had the server been with the same level of service the entire time. I will be back and I look forward to those tacos again because they were delicious

Great place to hangout. It is newer in Sycuan but I would soo love for them to have a dance floor and bachata. The service is great and staff is super nice.

The atmosphere here is nice and very on brand. The service was amazing! Very nice and helpful staff. I got the birria tacos which were very flavorful, the side of rice seemed very dry and a little uncooked. The order of guacamole was great! I love the salsa and chips! Overall, this place is good with amazing potential to be a big hit in the casino. Definitely worth checking out again!

Listen ... this place has sooo much potential they NEED TO ADD BAND AND BACHATA NIGHTS !!! It will be OFF THE HOOK. Think about it a place to stay, drinks and bachata nights omg. The drinks are so creative and embrace the Hispanic culture. Apparently it's only been open 4 months but it is my new fave at Sycuan Casino!

Cool place to have some drinks and food while gambling. The food was ok, didnt care much for the burrito and guacamole. The flautas were delicious though. Service was good, our server checked on us constantly.

First time coming in since it opened and loved it. The atmosphere and food is definitely a well added addition to the casino. My wife had the Shrimp tacos which she loved with the shredded cabbage. I had the mole enchiladas which were amazing. If you're in the casino this is definitely a must.

We went for our anniversary and our waitress Hannah did not provide a good decent experience , I had spilled my drink and we were trying to clean up but our napkins was not holding back the spilling , she did not come back she disappeared after she had asked if I wanted a refill but did not offer or assist to help the situation , my husband became the busboy and we never had our water refiled after we had asked , I eventually flagged Danny who was very hands on and helpful to help with the spill ,bring our check and bring a to go box , if your server is Hannah request another server, I was shocked that she ignored us for the rest of the night until she was ready to process our check

First things first food is bomb! We got the table side guacamole and it was bussin' also the elote! Fire I tell you! Definitely try that with the chips! Drinks was on point. Had the "la calavera," "el sol," and "la dama" and they was all good. Not too sweet and just the right amount of punch . The waiters were all amazing and wonderful. Super nice to us and everything came out so fast. Lastly the restaurant was beautiful. Indoor and outdoor seating looking over the pool and Mountain View's. Highly recommend checking it out.

We recently dined at Suerte Cantina, and while the food was acceptable and the service satisfactory, I was disappointed by the additional charges. We were unexpectedly billed an extra $2.00 for a small portion of sour cream, which seemed excessive. Even after bringing up the issue with the manager, I was informed that it was a kitchen policy. Although the decor was pleasant, this experience left a sour taste in my mouth.

Service was on point, Great food and drinks. I love how they decorated the restaurant

Suerte is an awesome restaurant amidst the craziness of the casino. The drinks were delicious. I had El Catrin and Las Jaras(espresso martini) both amazing. I absolutely appreciate the detail put into making the drinks....each one named after one of the cards from my favorite childhood game Loteria. I had the guac and the shrimp ceviche. Loved the spice and taste of everything. The mushroom quesadillas were tasty. Staff was nice and it was fun finding all the little hidden details like the two donkeys. Can't wait to take my family.

The food is edible. Certain dishes were pretty decent. The service was good until it wasn't. They give you your food and disappear. After tasting the food, I was just looking forward to the dessert and even that, they couldn't deliver. My churros were served to me as soft as a blue steak! Taking it up to the gentleman who stood by the front desk, he responded with, "You must be used to the hard churros that just sit in a warmer for a long time. Here we serve it fresh. You should wait 15-20 min for it to get hard." I really should've asked for this gentleman's name but I was so in shock with his response. I WOULD NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE. YOU WILL NOT GET SUERTE HERE. More like, la mala suerte!

Extremely disappointed. Came with my friends and ordered different dishes. The nachos "looked delicious " but they were extremely spicy. We only had two bites and we couldn't handle it. Im mexocan and I know how to eat spice but damn, these nachos were NOT enjoyable at all. I was so disappointed. One of our friends got the combonplate and just tasted so fake, he couldn't finish it. This place is not authentic mexican plates. All fake and no good flavor. The only thing i can say was good, was the drinks. But $250 late of food that we couldn't even finish was truly upsetting. We will stick with Rack n file or pink Buddha. I do not recommend Suerte. So disappointed.

For the food, we got tacos de carnitas, chile relleno, enchiladas verdes, fajitas combo. In my opinion I would say 8.5/9 out 10. The service was good, came to check on us a couple times which is appreciated. The ambience for a Friday night seemed slow which made our time more enjoyable. I'd come back. I'm not sure why there are many people who complained about the food, maybe it was a different cook or came on a busy night, which could lead to more mistakes but I'd recommend people to come check it out.

Really pretty and the service is always on point there at Sycuan. The food was great but a lil over priced for the small portions.

Went last night for my bday dinner and upon first arrival the decor was very cute. We sat down right away and after sitting for about a good 10 min the mgr comes to our table with the phone on his ear to give us chips. We all looked like wth and he said sorry on the phone with IT. Next our server Alyssa came didn't ask us what we wanted to drink just are you ready to order? No we want a drink menu...after waiting about 10 min the mgr came with a drink menu and after another 5 min she comes back do you know what you want to order..no we want drinks first!!! Finally we placed our food order we ate no Alyssa to be seen did not check if we wanted more drinks did we need anything had to flag her down for a box. Our food was pretty decent...She came by didn't bother to take any plates away from the table didn't bother to ask if we wanted anything else or if we wanted our check! Finally we asked another waitress who came after we started eating and we were pretty disappointed she wasn't our server since she was so attentive to her customers if we could get our check! When we left the mgr who was just standing at the bar didn't say goodbye but the waitress we wished we had she had curly hair and was standing next to the mgr thanked us from coming in. We didn't even want to leave a tip that's how bad it was so we gave her the bare minimum because that was what service we got.

Service was awesome, decor brings out our heritage roots. The ceviche was bomb and authentic! I will recommend and come back . Thank you Danny for the service!

First off service was amazing. Nico is such a bubbly person who really strives to make sure you are happy. He recommended the birria tacos which were not what I expected but they were meaty and tasty. I also got a side of the street corn which was pretty good. My friend got the combo plate. Chicken enchiladas with rice and beans. She ate it all so im assuming it was good lol the enchiladas were on the smaller side but plenty to fill you up. I would go back because service was good food was good and I'll try something else next time

Great atmosphere, but not impressed with the food. I like a tad bit of spice, but most of what we ordered was too spicy including the salsa that comes out with the chips. I ordered cheese enchiladas and the red sauce l. It was so spicy it was not edible for me. Thankfully my husband ordered a cheese quesadilla and swapped with me. He likes spice, eats whole roasted peppers and agreed the red sauce was very spicy. The food came out only luke warm. I would love to try again if they toned down the spice. Not everything has to be so spicy.

We sat at the bar the female bartender was very nice and made a few recommendations. I ordered the chicken flautas and husband ordered the carne asada nachos. Flautas were larger than expected and sat in a green salsa. They were tasty but by the time I got to the second one...they were soggy which made them sort of discussing. Husband ordered the carne asada nachos which he returned because they were drowning in nachos cheese. He sent them back...the asada was way over cooked and still too much nacho cheese. We have not written Suerte off.... yet. Will try again in several months. The nice thing is the bar is partially outside. Dinner was pretty disappointing

I came here yesterday and their was a wait time of 30 mins which is not bad. While waiting we decided to get some drinks with my bf and what I like about this place is their is plenty of space to sit so their is no problem. Their patio is really nice so if you want some privacy you can just head out there. As far as the ambiance it was perfect the music went perfect with the theme. The drinks I like the concept they used which is La lotería anyone who has played the game will understand. I ordered La Sandia and El Catrin both drink were good not overpowering with alcohol it was enjoyable and we also tried el venado which was good if you like tamarindo. The fajita and chips where really good too. You can tell their are fresh products . Service was good the girls where very friendly as well as the manager . Definitely a must try if your looking for awesome drinks and good music and food. Thank you had a great date night.
