    This may have been our best meal at By Patrik Pettersson. There were some new dishes on the menu - which is always changing - but the Vension was new and outstanding - melt in your mouth wonderful! The Branzino was great - and I don't like fish but I loved this dish! He had a new wine for us to try which was perfect with our dinner. I don't know where he finds them. All and all, I don't know how Patrik will top this dinner! The service is always wonderful and the people are always friendly but not overly so. Looking forward to our next meal there! Thanks for another wonderful experience at this hidden gem!

    Truly a wonderful multi-sensory experience from a restaurant that once was home to The Sarasota Times. The minute we walked into Sage we were captivated by the warmth and ambience; a feeling of dejavu or an other worldly sense ensued…one which is also reflected in choice pieces of artwork; the bar in and of itself…is art! Our smoked manhattans (Transylvania vibe)were presented at our table in an illustrious fashion. What an amazing experience! The aromas from the kitchen made us even hungrier and our selected dishes were incredible (best pork chop ever)! We found ourselves swaying to the music…soft, romantic! Across the board, we give Sage a five star rating from the valet, staff, waiters and management. To celebrate our Anniversary we wanted a completely unique experience and Sage delivered and then some! We thank you!
