What a terrific way to have a quiet and intimate up-scale dinner for a reasonable price. The students are rock stars before their time with menu creation and execution of the courses and wine pairings. Great service, also students. Chefs have to learn how to be front of house too as well as back of house. No details large or small are overlooked, either. Fabulous experience and the kind that is paved as such with 6 courses that conversation can be had and courses enjoyed instead of rushed through.

I loved the variety of ethnic foods. Our waitress, Lily was fun and provided great service. Great value and unique dishes that were new to me. I absolutely must come to the evening meal. Thank you, Sage Bistro! Joanna & Larry Lindberg
