   Beautiful room with lovely live music playing on a Friday night. Extremely attentive wait staff. Creative dishes. My Chilean sea bass was delicious, though just a bit too salty. My wife's filet mignon was well cooked but not as tasty as we've had in other restaurants. The desert was beautiful and delicious (a pumpkin cheesecake made to look like a pumpkin!) Over all, a delicious meal in a beautiful setting with great service.

   SAGE is unique in Sarasota. The ambience is very sophisticated with an up beat vibe: wood, soft lights, bit dark in decor but not depressing, just like a really good bar in NYC. Wait staff is outstanding. Cassie was our server and she was top notch: fun, warm, interested, knowledgeable, helpful, went out of her way. Dining manager in sport coat and tie was charming and an unusual touch in our little town by the Bay. Food was truly outstanding: mezzaluna pasta appetizer, filet mignon, pork chop, all delicous. The apple crispy thing for dessert was not great: dry. But beautifully designed and presented. This is a small criticism for a great restaurant. Sage is VERY PRICEY but worth it for a special event or splurge. Put it on your special list.

   Service, service, service. Wow, they know how to treat people at Sage. It was my wife’s birthday dinner and they treated her amazing. Pre dinner cocktails at the bar were fabulous and the bartender was awesome. Our dinner service was best I have had in the area. Food was spectacular. We will be back very soon. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.

   Food was mediocre for the price. Bouabaise had no broth. Roasted broccoli was cold. Cocktails were good.

   Sage has become consistently the best upscale restaurant in Sarasota. From the overall ambience to the knowledgeable waitstaff to the extremely interesting menu and finally the food itself, Sage delivers above and beyond the competition. Yes, it is at the high end of price points but the food is positively delicious and excellently presented.

   Unfortunately we did not have a good experience at this restaurant last evening. We were there to celebrate 3 birthdays and were looking forward to a great ever. We arrived early to enjoy a drink on the roof top bar area only to be told that there was a private party and it was closed to the public until 7. We decided to have dinner early and then visit the rooftop bar after dinner. We ordered drinks and then proceeded to order our meal. Some of us ordered appetizers only and some ordered 2 appetizers but our waiter was visibly unhappy with the amount of food we ordered and made it known. We spoke to the manager and asked for a different waiter and luckily Brandon was very kind and patient and did not judge our food selection. After dinner and when we were told that the rooftop bar was finally opened we went up for a drink. After getting our drinks we sat around the fire pit for about 20 minutes and then the bartender told us the bar was closing. I was very disappointed with the way we were treated and felt very undervalued by the staff. I will not be visiting this establishment here ever again

   A beautiful setting, attentive service from Cassie (and the entire team) and outstanding food. So, that's a first-class experience. The Thai bouillabaisse was amazing as was the sea bass. Desserts -- exquisite!
