My dad bought gelato from this place and it was more than disappointing. From the packaging to the taste. We ordered vanilla and chocolate gelato and they were both disgusting. To even call that mess “gelato” is a hate crime to all Italians, it was a spoiled milk slushy. It was also served to us in a plastic takeaway box. To top it all off, it was 9 dollars for 3 and a half scoops of “gelato”.

Decided to stop in after an open house at FMS and I’m so glad I did! I grabbed a seat at the bar for the BOGO margaritas and $4 tacos—both were fantastic. The food was fresh and delicious, and the margaritas were some of the best I’ve had in a long time. Rhiannon, the bartender, was excellent— she was attentive, super friendly, and great to chat with. She made the whole experience even better. I’ll definitely be coming back soon!

The four standouts were the waitstaff, humous with warm pita appetizers, the sea bisque soup and a cocktail my husband had. The decor was dingy and dated with weird draperies on some of the windows. I had the lemon chicken soup with kale and orzo. Chicken was dry. The broth overly salty with too much lemon that made it very bitter. For dinner I had the chicken kabobs. The chicken was rubbery and basically inedible. Our fellow diner felt the same way. My husband ordered the mussels , 6 of which were unopened and should not have been served . The GF pasta and sauce were too salty to eat. We left feeling surprised over the good reviews the restaurant had posted and somewhat annoyed to have been served a subpar meal and paying for it. The waiter did remove the charges for one of the soups.

Came in yesterday for dinner with my family. Everything was really good. Ordered a Portuguese chicken for myself, and my husband and son had the chicken kebab and beef stroganoff. Food was delicious and we will definitely be coming back when in the area again.

Service was superb. Server recommended the peach chicken salad. Only 3 small pieces of peaches (really)and the chicken was dry. Will not go there again.

The $10 bowl of vegetarian orzo soup was tasteless. Frozen vegetables in water. The Mediterranean platter was good, and the free gelato was delicious. The service was exceptional.

Came in with a small group a few weeks ago for dinner and can honestly say everything was delicious and on point. From the appetizers to the main dishes everything tasted fresh and well prepared. We even had a chance to meet the chef, Katie who was very pleasant and gracious. Will definitely be returning again in the future!

The chicken orzo soup was awful. It was frozen vegetables in chicken broth with orzo. No flavor at all. The falafel gyro was better.

My friend and I went to Sage Bistro for Dinner and as she promised, we had a great experience. I like the restaurant's warm, relaxed ambiance with tables and booths for diners. The decor is Mediterranean. Local artists sell their work here and donate the proceeds to various charities. One artist sells works to donate funds to California Fire Survivors.

Our server, Olivia, reviewed the Menu and Specials with my friend and I. We appreciated her suggestions.

She selected Orzo and Vegetable Soup. The delicious Soup has LOTS of Orzo and Vegetables.

The main course was the Mojo Steak from the Specials List. This Steak Dish gets its name from Mojo Spices (Lemon, Cumin, Bay Leaf, Oregano, Garlic) giving the meat a zestful herbed flavorings.

The Side Salad came with her favorite Greek Cucumber Dressing. It is light and flavorful, with a hint of Lemon.

My dinner started with Creamed Asparagus Soup from the Specials List. The Soup is a great springtime choice. The Creamy Asparagus is bright, with a subtle grass flavor. The herbs and spices add complexity to the dish.

This is my first experience with Eggplant Puttanesca over Linguini. The Grilled Eggplant, Sauteed Tomatoes, Onions, Olives, and Capers in Marinara Sauce combine to create a bold, savory dish served on a bed of Linguini. This is a visually appealing flavorful delight!

I chose Balsamic Tarragon Dressing for my Size Salad. The sweet and tangy dressing has a light Licorice flavor adding zest to my Salad.

The Chef came to our booth and asked us about our meal selections. My friend raved about the Mojo Steak Dish. I promised to order the Eggplant Puttanesca again.

Olivia took marvelous care of us. We enjoyed our conversation with her and wish her the very best in her studies. I promised to bring my husband in for memorable meals.

Thank you, Chef, Olivia, and the Sage Bistro Staff for a wonderful dining experience.

I was disappointed by the food. The items were very salty and had an off -flavor. Very disappointed with the quality of food and taste. I spent over $ 50 and it was a waste of time energy and food that was trashed because of the poor taste

My girlfriend and I live nearby and our cat is named Sage so we decided to stop by for an early dinner one evening. We were not disappointed. It was early for dinner and it was a weekday so when we arrived we were the only ones in restaurant (people continued to come in after us). I do expect slightly better service and quicker food when there are few people in a restaurant and this was certainly the case. The food was delicious and the service was constant. At one point they had a trainee (the owners toddler son) come check in on us and ask how our food came out which was very cute. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are craving Mediterranean food!

Sage Bistro is one of our favorite restaurants in the area & never disappoints. We have had Carlos as our server several times & the service / quality of food is always magnificent. The calamari is some of the best I've ever had, & the chicken and seafood entrees I've tried, always impress. This little gem is amazing. Kudos to the chef, management & waitstaff!!!
