Sage was our favorite restaurant when it was at the CH location and we're so happy to have it back. We went there the other night and enjoyed all our old favs including the Osh soup and Budem Joon. ❤️
Love this restaurant so much! My family and I have been coming for over a decade at the location in Chapel Hill- so happy to learn they’re back in this Durham location. Everything was just as delicious always, I’m excited for the gnocchi to be back on the menu. The owners and their kids are so sweet. Will be coming back soon!
