    Exceptional Dining at Sage – A Must-Try in Sarasota My experience at Sage in Sarasota was nothing short of phenomenal. From the ambiance to the service and, most importantly, the food, everything exceeded expectations. The highlight of the evening was the seared foie gras and crispy duck—both executed to perfection. The foie gras was rich, buttery, and expertly seared, while the duck had the perfect balance of crispiness on the outside and tender, flavorful meat on the inside. The accompaniments enhanced each bite, making for an unforgettable dish. Beyond the food, the service was impeccable. A big thank you to Chris for making the experience even more enjoyable with attentive and knowledgeable recommendations. If you’re in Sarasota and looking for an upscale dining experience that delivers on flavor, technique, and atmosphere, Sage is the place to go. Highly recommend!

    We love most of the Chefs seasonal dishes that he creates, The flavors are fantastic. The waiters/waitresses are very good and helpful. The atmosphere is very inviting and perfect for date nights or get togethers. This is a hidden gem in Sarasota! One of our favorite restaurants.

    Cassie, our server, was fantastic, as was the rest of the crew. When timing of an order was made in error and came out too soon, the staff immediately whisked it away and brought it back to pare with the other dishes. No questions asked. Food was outstanding, from the Caesar salad, to the salmon to the espresso martini for dessert. Sage is definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Sarasota.

    We like this restaurant and have eaten here many times. The quality of the meals has definitely diminished. The lamb was overcooked and dry. The duck was very dry. It does not seem that a chef is overseeing the quality of the meals going to the tables.

    I made reservations and added notes it was my birthday. They made me feel special the moment I checked in and throughout the entire dining experience. The nightly special of the Earl Grey and passionfruit creme brulee was soooo delicious. I can't remember my servers name but she was a beautiful red haired woman and she was wonderful and kind.

    An absolutely fantastic meal full of flavors with an incredible wine list that pairs well with everything on the menu. The braised boar was especially excellent and the chocolate dessert was a hit. Don’t start your experience without starting with a sage infused vodka tonic.
