TL;DR - I recently visited Sweet Spot, located in the H Mart Shopping Center, and I have mixed feelings about my experience. Overall, I would give the restaurant 3 out of 5 stars.
One of my favorite dishes was the Cantonese Style Golden Fried Calamari. The calamari was cooked to perfection, not feeling greasy at all, and the squid needed to be chewy. The Hong Kong Milk Tea was also a nice touch, but the flavor could have been stronger than I remember from my time in Hong Kong.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was also enjoyable. The TV was showing Hong Kong street scenes, and it brought back a lot of memories for me. I can see myself returning to Sweet Spot for more of these memories in the future.
The service at Sweet Spot is different from other restaurants. You order at the counter and seat yourself. The ordering process can be hard to hear the cashier as the sound comes out of a microphone and can sound mechanical from the reverb. When your order is ready, they call your number, and you can get your water, napkins/utensils, and to-go bowls and caps from the side area.
The food options were fantastic. There are plenty of apps and entrees to choose from, such as classic, curry, and cheesy bake. I highly recommend sharing multiple items with friends. I recommend this place, especially when you have a large group of people where you all can order a dish and share.
One dish that I had mixed feelings about was the Seafood in Cheesy Creamy Sauce with Spaghetti. It is a big dish and gets cheesy at the very end. I was overwhelmed by the cheesy flavor at the end and didn't finish it. I had to take it to go. It will be a perfect portion if you share the dish with a friend.
