We took my brother and his wife (omnivores) and they LOVED it too. We ordered 3 appetizers and 4 entrees and shared it all and couldn’t get over the flavors. It is so hard to find a vegan restaurant that isn’t just grab and go, or bar food. (I am so tired of plain pasta, and curries) You can really appreciate the care and love that goes into everything they do. It wasn’t until the next day that we realized that the friendly and very helpful waitress was also the wife and co-owner. I can’t wait to return! And I am excited to try one of the cooking classes that they offer.

Beautiful setting with top notch food. Chef Barry is the PICASSO of food. The plates are gastronomic and visual works of art. The ingredients are fresh, unique and fantastic fitting all of our dietary needs and desires. We had the ravioli, the fried mushroom oyster plate with potato salad and miso salad all stellar. We were too full for the sushi appetizer and will enjoy it at home today. We finished the meal with a delightful strawberry cheesecake with a pecan and almond base. WOW! Jennifer is very welcoming and Lacey was a superb and gracious server. Please don’t read this review since we want to keep Sanctuary Bistro for ourselves.
This restaurant makes me think of changing jobs to live closer. Maybe in a few short years…. C and S.

My Wife and I love to come here and enjoy a wonderful meal and a very relaxed atmosphere no matter the time of day. The staff are very respectful here from the custodian to the chef they have one heck of an establishment in Charlotte! Thanks for such fantastic food, service and hospitality of your wonderful restaurant.

The beet salad is so good, we make the drive to Charlotte just for the blue cheese dressing!

I love sanctuary bistro, it’s such a nice vibe and they offer top tier vegan cuisine. Perfect for special occasions, a great way to show those you love how much you value and appreciate them! Anytime I get a chance to stop by, I’m always supporting!
A great little spot to celebrate a special occasion. High-end vegan cuisine by Chef Barry, with plenty of tasty gluten free options. You won’t be disappointed.

I have been to Sanctuary Bistro many times many times over the years even though it’s over 30 miles away from my home. It’s probably the best restaurant of my lifetime even though I have been blessed to experience many exquisite restaurants especially in the Southern California area where I lived until 6 years ago. The food is amazing, all vegan, gluten free and very delicious! The atmosphere is delightful and so are the people!!! I simply cannot express how much I love this experience and no, I am in no way profiting from this, except in the sense that I believe this business is making our world a better place!!! 😋💝

OH M GGGG…WOWWWW…this is what I felt with every item I ordered. Was first time at this place and have heard a lot about it and it was AMAZING…I can’t write anything without CAPS…that means a lot…we ordered sushi, soup, jackfruit steak, beer battered tofu, cheesecake and crème brûlée being just two people Cz everything on menu sounded so good and we licked every plate, it was so DELICIOUS…I would have generally given 3 or 4 stars for poor service but my soul is satisfied that I can’t do that for this even, would rather give it 20 stars for how amazing their food is. Why are they not Michelin yet??? We did some wine tasting and one other item which was amazing. Try sweet Resling wine, we finished the entire bottle. Man, I can’t stop bragging how good this place is. Just one request to make the service better, it took almost an hour for our order to arrive and it was soul teasing, EVERYTHING ELSE WAS FABULOUS. Love they are all vegan so I didn’t had to think what to order. MUST MUST TRY my vegan and non-vegan peeps.

I just want to say, It's really cool to find an all vegan restaurant that feels fancy and upscale. The menu was delightfully creative compared to what we are used to. We ordered the fried sushi, miso macadamia salad, BLAT-Dilla, and the potato salad. The food was good, albeit a bit pricey for the amount that you get.
The fried sushi, potato salad, and miso salad were definitely the shining stars, but the brown rice-wrapped dilla was not super filling and tough to eat. We also aren't a huge fan of gluten free bread products. I know for a lot of people this is a gluten free sanctuary and definitely high quality, but not for us glutenful bread-loving vegans. It would have been nice to at least have the option for a regular pita or flour tortilla wrap.
If we returned, we would probably make a meal out of the flavorful sides and appetizers.
