Was very pleasantly surprised with the ramen and rice bowl. Looking forward to going back. Also enjoyed some gelato.

We have returned multiple times, because we believe it sells the best ramen in Redding, CA.

Definitely visit Sweetspot if you are in Redding. I had the loaded rice bowl with braised pork belly, caramelized onions, marinated cucumbers, bok choy, corn, green onions, so delicious! I especially loved the sauce it was drenched in and the marinated cucumbers for a crunchy flavor blast! It was perfect with an IPA. I had the lemon cheesecake for dessert and it was to die for. Thank you for an amazing dinner Sweetspot! read more

Went here for coffee but they didn't have any except for brewed, nonetheless had the triple chocolate chip cookie and I wish I bought a dozen, it was super buttery, moist and since it just came out of the oven and still warm the choco chips were just heavenly melting in my pie hole.... seriously if you come through this area, get a dozen of the cookies, you won't regret it. The cheesecake was good but hard to eat it with that paper, remove the paper guys and just leave it in that cup it comes in. read more

The diva cupcakes were dry. I liked the ganache. It should be called birthday cake because that's what it tasted like. Out of all the gelato flavors we ordered, the strawberry guava was the best. The mango coconut tasted weird because it didn't taste like mango coconut. I am going to go back and try out their ramen which is kind of random. I did hear it's the bettet spots for ramen when you're in the area. It's a really cool spot because they had open mic or somebody singing/playing music. read more

A one stop shop for food (ramen, dumplings, etc) and dessert (gelato, cupcakes, cake parfaits, cookies, etc)! They weren't busy at 2pm on a Saturday, and there was still a variety of items to choose from. I tried: -Gelato (w/Cookies n Cream & Red Velvet, Small/$3.55, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=LY36xTpzIajhmmYcQ-tYzw&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): The cookies n cream was delicious, and definitely my favorite since it had a ton of cookies in it- highly recommended! The red velvet was ok- I liked the red velvet pieces, but the base ice cream was too tart for my liking. I also had a sample of the Reese's (good peanut butter flavor) and Birthday Cake (not much flavor, but it was also a small sample). -Gluten Free Strawberry Cream Cupcake ($3.75, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=Z_Z5h5myUPGns8r1iu3e3Q&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): Yum- this cupcake was very moist and I loved the strawberry jam swirled in it. I wish the frosting was less sweet, or made with whipped cream instead of buttercream, but the cupcake was good. -Cookies n Cream Cupcake ($3.75): Solid cupcake, and good cookies n cream flavor. The cupcake was moist and the frosting wasn't too sweet- recommended! I would come back here if in the area and had a craving for sweets. They had plenty of places to sit inside and their AC was amazing! There was also plenty of parking available in this plaza, including some spots with shade. read more

Their miso ramen and sweets are immaculate! The staff is friendly and have great recommendations for popular items! They do run out of some of their items closer to closing so be sure to get there early if you would like to try all the sweet items! read more

Never been here for anything not sweet. I would love to try their ramen one day. We've been here 4 times. We have tried their cheesecake, pot de cream, cookie sandwiches, cupcakes, and regular cookies. Except for the cheesecake, we would get all of it again, and have! Just today! Theres always immediate parking right in front, the place is never busy (good for us), and they always have something we're craving, plus the staff is always super sweet and kind. Yay! read more

Food was awesome (chicken bowl) and the gelato was SOOOO GOOD UGHH. Service was fast and ambiance was nice. I recommend this cute food joint. read more

Oh, wow-- almost $5 for 1 cupcake? Really? I definitely came in today and made a couple comments about it. Really, almost $7.00 For a cookie? Are you serious? Sweetspot. Oh, no, shame on you guys. Shame, shame, shame. That's not cool. You're totally overpricing your mediocre af products and taking advantage of the poor Redding souls who don't know any better. I just now called Sublime cupcakes--You know the one that was actually featured some time ago on the Food Network---they sell for $3 a pop. What do you think you're doing? Why do you think this is okay, Sweetspot? I hope 'Chris' has a good answer for this one. Also, what's with only having mean little elves working? Can a grown up be there for God's sake? By the way, my cookie tasted like it's been in the refrigerator too long. I'm off to Sublime for better, more professional service and better, more reasonably priced baked goods. read more

There's nothing special about this place or their baked goods. I've had their cupcakes and was disappointed since I'd heard how good they were. I've had better cupcakes made by my son's kindergarten class. The lady that owns the place wasn't especially friendly, either. Maybe she was have a bad day? They did have good gelato though. The other cupcake place is deliciously "sublime" and blows this place away! read more

Excellent food !! Ordered the Ramen bowl and potstickers to share - Used door dash for lunch from Sweetspot and the delivery could not have been faster!! You won't be disappointed read more

I came here with a friend today and we were pretty happy with our orders! We both thought the broths were a little salty but overall good! We ended up getting some gelato as well. They have a lot of creative flavors like unicorn poop! I ended up getting the melon. read more

Great service! I didn't get the gentlemen's name but he did a good job handling my family's special requests. I was loving all the gelato options, too! Did not know you could order ramen from here too and my friend decided to try that, which she said was amazing. read more

This place has some of the best ramen I've had outside of Japan! I've stopped trying out many new ramen places because most of them are just not great, but this place is incredible! They nail the basics (great noodles, broth, eggs, etc.) and have some unique and interesting additions that were excellent as well (dumplings, bok choy). Their deserts are also top tier, I had an absolutely incredible peanut butter brownie and gelato. Just try it out, even if you don't like it as much as I did, it'll definitely worth your while. I'll be coming back every time I'm in Redding. read more

First time here waiting for the dentist lol Really good ice cream!!! I will return maybe with a hot date read more

Sweetspot makes an awesome hangout venue in Redding, especially on Thursday nights when there is a wine special (Buy 1 glass of wine, get another for a penny)! I especially love the live music. It's nice to have a live band playing in the background when you're hanging out with your friends. I decided to try the homemade ramen. I'd say it was an okay at best, and would give it a 3 out of 5. The noodles were a little tough and the broth was not very flavorful. They have a vast selection of gelato and baked goods. The unicorn poop gelato is a must try! Service was a bit slow. 4 stars because Sweetspot is one of the best hangout spots in Redding read more

This is my "go to" place if I'm craving sweets! Their cup cakes are wonderful, the gelato is yummy and their pastries and other sweet items are really good as well! It's family friendly (there's a place for the little ones) while the other side is a wine bar! Just an excellent place to hang out with friends with a great atmosphere and friendly workers. read more

placed a call in order they said it would be ready in 20 min, I got there and waited almost 50 min. They should have said 50 min to begin with. This is just for two ramen bowls. Poor service and poor communication. Won't be visiting here again. read more

My wife and I frequent SweetSpot for their delicious ramen about once a week. When we moved from Portland to Redding, we were shocked to see that there aren't any dedicated ramen shops, but SweetSpot has filled the void for us. Unfortunately, we will be cutting back from visiting as frequently. We understand that inflation has increased the prices on everything we buy, but $14.50 is a little on the high side for ramen that doesn't contain typical ramen toppings such as marinated eggs, bamboo shoots, fish cake, and nori. You can purchase most of these items for an additional charge which would normally be no problem seeing as Redding has a very limited selection for ramen. SweetSpot seems to be aware of the limited selection as an additional $2.00 for ONE extra broccoli floret and $0.95 for HALF of an egg seems quite exploitative. After tip, (the service is always very good- a few of the employees have taken the time to learn my name!) we end up typically paying $40 for the two of us, where typically we'd pay $30 at any given shop. $10 may not be that much in savings, but we consistently spend money here and it certainly adds up quickly. We will continue to visit here, albeit much less than we have in the last. We hope, for everyone's sake, that this inflation soon dies down soon and we can return to normal life! read more

An interesting concept of combining a sweet sweet baked goods, gelato, and ramen with an urban vibe.

Decided to come here for Ramen, and also left with some sweet bakery treats. The Garlic Chicken Ramen is on point! Great depth of flavor in the broth. the chicken was seasoned perfectly, the veggies were fresh, and spice level two was just right....a really good kick, but not overpowering. I also added the soft boiled egg and dumplings, which were superb! The portion was more than generous. Enough for at least two meals! I added the lemon rosemary cookie, which was soft and cake-like, and had a wonderful balance between the two main flavors. The cupcake was chocolate with caramel ganache I believe. It was soft and oh so yummy! I can't wait to go back! read more

Ordered the dumpling bowl, and pork belly and rice bowl. Everything was savory, fresh and flavorful.

Our family put in a order for 2 dozen cup cakes late last year for a event. At that time they only had 4 types of cupcakes. To make a long story short. I called yesterday to place a order fir 6 dozen cup cakes. They were the same exact types that I was going to order last year. I asked the lady if they had sny other types and she replied," this is all we are making". This remark is mainly for sweetspot and not so much the audience. Start making the 15 or 20 types you were making. The whole covid thing is done and has been done. When you loose your customer base due to product not so much being unavailable but, just plain out not being made...........change needs to happen. Called sublime, later on in the evening and they had 10 different types if cup cakes. Owner thought I was a mystery shopper. Replied no. He told me alot of there new customer base has come from sweetspot customers. There complaints weren't the product but, the variety of products available. In other words.......sweetspot better get it together or your competition will be opening up another store. Just a heads up read more

First time visit. Ambiance delicious and welcoming. Staff very kind. Lemon meringue, orange, coconut, root beer float and butter pecan delicious!!! read more

I can't help but put only one star here, the pork in the dumpling was raw. I enjoyed the flavor of the ramen but I can't get past raw meat, especially when it comes to pork. When I'm spending nearly $20 for a bowl of ramen, I expect the meat to be cooked all the way through. I don't want anyone getting sick so here's my heads up to anyone who wants to read it. read more

We threw a bridal shower here and it was a great spot. $50 to hold the bar area privately and you can put that towards the food. We had about 20-25 guests and that area fit our group well. We ordered baked goods, flatbreads, coffee, and tea. They set it up nicely on the bar and we brought our own decorations as well. People still ordered their own drinks too. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking to throw a small, semi-private event. (The other side with the gelato is still open to the public and there'll be the occasional walk through if someone is going to the restroom.) There doesn't seem to be many places to do this in the area and this one is pretty affordable. Everyone was really nice and helpful. My friend likes these Earl Grey cookies they used to sell regularly, but they're available to order for special events which was nice. The only thing that was just alright in my opinion were the flatbreads, but everything else was yummy! read more

Server was nice & accommodating. A/C, lots of space & seating, clean bathroom. Arcade in the back. Interesting collection of paintings/deco & good music. Service was fast. Bowl was a bit salty but reasonably priced for how much you get. read more

Terrible service! I waited 45 minutes before inquiring about my order and the gal acted offended. She checked and came out to say they were working on it. When she said what the order was it was not mine. It was clear they completely missed it. Then when they brought my food I let them know how long we had waited and the server made excuses and was extremely rude! It wouldn't have been so bad if they had just owned up and said they were sorry for the mix up. So sad because I like the food and have had good service in the past. read more

We had two cupcakes and ice cream here and especially loved the red velvet one. They were delicious and had just the perfect amount of moisture. The ice cream wasn't bad either. The service wasn't the best I've had but it was barely. I recommend trying their cupcakes! read more

This place does not live up to its reputation. I've been twice. The first time there was a car show in town. I had to get in line twice in order to get soup and ice cream. Then they didn't even get the order correct. So I thought maybe they were just overwhelmed. I'll try it when their less busy. This time the unicorn poop ice cream was just that. Way to sweet with chunks of ice still in it. Not creamy at all. The soup I took home, I didn't care for it at all. It was bland. This place is very expensive for a stop shop and they don't really seem motivated to help you. The cupcakes are ok. Chris, maybe if there was 1 adult on staff you wouldn't have this problem. I've read a lot of your reviews and while some are good the ones that aren't reflect the same feeling as I. Your staff does not care for repeat costumers. Placing an order should not be so difficult. I feel like they just want you to go. Step it up. Redding is growing and your not growing along with it. read more
