"Excellent food and our waiter was fantastic as well. My biggest complaint was how there was a 25 minute wait to get a table. Once the table was available, I noticed it was the table with the high chairs (which is difficult for me to sit on given my some health issues). I told them I had booked a table in the main dining room and they said that one isn’t available and he couldn’t give me a timeframe of when one would be available. We finally got seated at the right table but I’m just surprised by the long wait when I had a reservation for three people from weeks ago. Still an amazing restaurant and always recommend this place!!"

"In the fall of 2017 we came here to celebrate the boss’s birthday. The food and the service were mediocre. What you are dropping $100 per head on dinner you expect something a little more than mediocre. I received a very nice email from Tony Foreman the proprietor asking specifically about my complaints. I responded ends and the following emails he copied his minion, Will Napier. In Mr. Forman‘s email, he promised that the next time we plan to dine there I should let him know in advance and he would make our experience a lot better. He also seemed to suggest a bottle of wine on the house with the help of the wine steward. Now you have to understand that we live on “ that small little island in the Pacific” and don’t get to Baltimore very often. We were planning on returning just six months ago, again for the boss’s birthday. I emailed him in advance along with a copy of our previous emails. In the next emails I was passed down to a woman in the office who asked when my reservation was for. I told her and also asked if one of my favorite managers, who I knew well, still work there. No response from either the woman in the office, Will Napier, or Mr. Foreman. The evening of the reservation came, and we were seated at our table with little or no recognition of anything. Just two people walking in off the street and asking to be seated for dinner. Although the service was a little better this time, and less confused, my review of the food remains the same, just mediocre. No special help or offer from the wine steward, and basically no recognition of any previous emails or promises. Would I return? I don’t think so."

"Perhaps we had set up the restaurant for failure in our minds after checking out their website and seeing how good the food looked. Due to that we made reservations and drove out to HMB. Upon arrival we were a little surprised at what the restaurant actually looked like, dining tables set up the the left and sports bar like atmosphere to the right. Kind of a twist we did not expect but thought ok, lets get to the main part, the food. We ordered the grilled octopus, and it tasted more like it had been boiled, as it didn't have any crunch or char taste to it as we had expected. The garlic bread was good, but then again that's kind of hard to mess up. We went on to order the chops, both lamb and pork for our main entrees. Both of which were just alright. The dessert rounded things out and was a good palette cleanser. For the prices paid and listed we expected more attentive service. We have not been to a lot of restaurants in the area, but do recall other local spots that we've dined in at which we can say had better service. Unsure if we would return here purposely."

"We decided to start with the Polipo, which consisted of grilled octopus served with roasted potatoes, green olives, and fresh herbs accompanied by a romesco sauce. The octopus was just slightly over-charred, but the sauce and the crunchy potatoes were outstanding. Our other appetizer was the Polpettine—five delicious meatballs that were moist and perfectly seasoned, resting on a bed of marinara sauce and served with two slices of buttery toast, which were excellent for soaking up the sauce. For the main courses, I chose the seafood special, featuring wide noodles with a variety of seafood in a broth reminiscent of linguine with clam sauce. The dish included perfectly diced carrots and zucchini that still had a nice crunch. My wife had the gnocchi with fresh pesto sauce, which was pillowy soft and contained incredibly fresh pesto. My daughter ordered the cappelletti, tortellini stuffed with truffle and ricotta, served with prosciutto and a light broth. The pasta was cooked to perfection, al dente. Finally, my son had the carbonara made with wide noodles, smoky bacon, and a poached egg. This unique version worked beautifully, and as with all carbonaras, the egg yolk created a rich and luxurious sauce. At the end of our meal, they brought out a three-layer vanilla cake with vanilla frosting. It was perfect—delicious without being overly sweet. On this special night, the restaurant staff truly went above and beyond. Our server did an exceptional job attending to all the small details. Thank you for a wonderful meal and fantastic service!"

"With us being from Chicago to call this Italian is a travesty. I review every place I go anywhere. reservations party of There out of gnocchi and steak on a Saturday night. Ordered Carpaccio meat partly frozen (they didn't allow to warm enough to thaw) in the middle and the just drizzles some mustard mayo, no quail egg,capers, tiny couple pieces of cheese. Beet salad with honey walnuts,goat cheese, balsamic. was served without nuts. Asked server retrieved the nuts. Caesar salad was ok but the crouton was so hard it took hands to break it in half. it was inches long. The ravioli was tasty very small portion. The pasta my wife ordered she asked for no tomatoes, the server stated they can't it's all prepped in advance. Well when her plate came it had pieces of tomato in ie well large enough to have taken out. So either the Chef (or none chef maybe just kitchen help choose to be lazy or really doesn't care. So my plate consisted of meatballs, sausage spinach and alfredo (which they did not have but said they could make it). I asked for this because I can not eat pasta. So when dropping the food I had no utensils my wife needed cheese for her pasta and butter for our bread. First of all do not order any sausage it was the size of breakfast sausage and tasted nothing like it. The meatballs ARE not made from scratch. They had the taste and texture of prepack hi salt heavy filler meatballs. Then desert ordered of a cookies and cream ice cream and our server came out with raspberry and said were out. take it away then. We went to the Nashville location and were very disappointed. Decided to give the west location a shot. If your pallet is well trained on all levels of food flavors from sliders to beef wellington. This place will not fool you. To all others you'll never notice. This place should have stars."

"six of us have sung to celebrate an event. we never felt hurried when we worked our way through drinks, laundry, a few appetizers and snacks. our waiter was attentive, but not transferred. that we sat around a small table, as a larger party occupied the more accommodating tables. the cocktails received a high note from each. the service and knowledge flow came from sommelier. the wine list il posto is extensive, but for most manageable. we had preferred and chose options to discuss with the sommelier, which seemed completely unknown with the list and most varietals. he left the table twice to be aware of the lists we had in our hands. this aspekt of the dinner proved to be disappointing. we ordered wein on the basis of our knowledge and accepted that we have overpaid essentially on our selection and experience. our choice, without doubt, but the sommelier gave no value; he was just not knowledgeable. Finally, our waiter was supported by another person responsible for the delivery of brot, drinks, some appetizers, etc. the delivery was more to Dennys than we expected here. yet our waiter has prepared himself with a grandiose demeanor, knowing and helpful."

"The food is very good but the experience was lacking. For that kind of money, you don't expect kids to be climbing the banquette behind you and peering over your table. You don't expect to be sitting in a small room at the back of a cafe. And you do expect the service to be exceptional; maybe even a plate of biscotti at the end of the meal? A vegetable for the table? Some olives or parmesan cheese? Nothing! We spent $500 on dinner for four and the manager would not even let us split a glass of wine. I will never be going back there!"

"The positives: The Grandma pizza is thin, crispy, and packed with flavor. The Chicken Parmesan pan pizza is rich and satisfying, with perfectly breaded chicken and a great balance of ingredients. The negatives: The BBQ chicken pizza is a soggy disaster. The chicken is not breaded, and instead of being drizzled on top, the BBQ sauce gets mixed into the cheese, making it watery. I wonder if the excessive amount of onions might be contributing to the sogginess. I’m so let down that I can't see myself ordering from there again anytime soon. Service: Delivery."

"The place always delivers. They weee very busy so our server was running around. It would take long sessions from getting g that menu and placing drink orders to them having them come back to take our appetizers order. I would say over 20 min. So that was a bit annoying. The server was very nice and accommodating but seems they could be short staffed. If you go, the atmosphere is amazing, drinks (some come stronger than others) were good and not pricey. Food is always on point so you can’t go wrong."

"Check your final bill carefully! Our itemized bill came back around $125. They brought back a credit card receipt for us to sign that was $159. When I pointed this out to the waiter, he went off and explained that after he brought us our itemized bill, somehow two additional glasses of wine were added to our tab. Although we appreciate the explanation, I don 't think we really received an apology there was no surprise, remorse, or anything that suggested that the restaurant wanted to make amends for the mistake. (I had supposed that the restaurant would normally lock out the tab once they print the itemized bill and bring it to the table but that 's clearly NOT the case here. Otherwise, the restaurant is in a great spot, it 's beautifully decorated, and the service was fine (until they brought the check . I love when Italian pasta shines and is complimented by the sauce. But here, the pasta sauces overwhelmed the pasta. It was passable not disturbing in any way, but surely also not memorable. But really, I am still flumoxed by the bill mishap was it an honest mistake or a scam? I wish that I had confidence that it was just a mistake. But the way that the restaurant responded didn 't suggest that they cared."

"Overpriced and in general an average restaurant. Nothing special to spent your time and money here, when you can find so many more restaurants to really enjoy your time. We had the vitello tonnato that was too average and overpriced. We also had the pappardelle ai funghi that was a good one though not so special only too expensive; the linguine alle vongole that were really good and the trancio di salmone that was overcooked and not a good one, not to mention that we had ordered asparagus with this one as a side and they arrived after we had finished our food. Finally we had their famous coffee and two sweets. Sweets were a gianduja cake that was delicious and the pecan pie that was below average. Coffee was just too expensive, nothing more! Overall, we paid for spaghetti as much as we would pay at a really good steakhouse and we didn’t enjoy our lunch."

"This is my second time eating there. UVA was packed on a Monday night, clearly they are on top of their game. It is very good food at a very competitive price relative to manhattan prices. The service is excellent. Water always filled, our server always made sure we had serving utensils so we could share some of our food. The prosciutto app was excellent as were the veal, meat balls in red sauce. We loved the pasta dishes and our desert which was a delicious almond tart with ice cream. I highly recommend this place, the vibe is also fun."

"Our servers were very attentive. This was an anniversary and I noted it when the reservation was made. I think my husbands fish dish was overpriced $51. He said the taste was ok. As a vegetarian, I tried one of the few options, mushroom ravioli. Definitely not fresh pasta as the dough was a bit thick. Ok flavor. I had the chefs special salad which was greens with beets and slivers of almonds, some goat cheese, and a vinaigrette.. it was nothing spectacular. The greens were drenched and therefore really limp. But I decided not to do anything. Something was lacking in it. I remember this restaurant differently from in the past. I felt like this time it was a little more generic and just something was missing. I can’t place it. I’m not sure that it would be our first choice to come here next time. I think there’s probably better places where we can spend $400. I think you should try it because everyone’s taste is different. Perhaps there’s other things you’ll find on the menu that’s suitable to your taste, but the staff was great. I have no complaints of the staff. I do wish that there was a few more vegetarian items on the menu especially because that area seems to be an area where many vegetarians live and I have a feeling they avoid this restaurant."

"This is a fantastic spot for lunch with a wide variety of food options. I had the chance to meet the owner, and he seemed like a really nice guy. My only constructive criticism would be regarding larger groups of 6 to 8 people. They try to remember everyone's orders but occasionally get them mixed up. It would be better if they took notes to ensure accuracy. That said, for single orders, I've never had any issues. Overall, it's a great place to eat!"

"I decided on this restaurant for a first date and so glad I did! Sat at the bar and was provided excellent service by the bartender. He was attentive, professional, and was able to pick up on our date night. Would give us a smile when we said we hadn’t looked at the menu because we were too busy talking, and gravitated towards me when I took the initiative to order for my date and manage the evening, all while being kind and aware of us both. Impeccable. And food was excellent! Will be back!"

"We had a fantastic evening at this restaurant. The atmosphere was wonderful, with a live guitarist playing in the dining room. The service was quick and polite, and the waiter even recommended some appetizers and empanadas to start. We followed his suggestions and tried 2 empanadas and 1 appetizer. Both empanadas were delicious and arrived hot from the oven, but the mushroom and brie empanada was especially amazing. The combination of zucchini and goat cheese was perfect. The braised short rib in Malbec sauce was also outstanding, tender, and very flavorful. The restaurant is located just a short walk from the Arsht Center, making it a convenient option for a pre-theater dinner."

"We came to Sage upon recommendation from friends that we were visiting here in Tallahassee. We were celebrating our anniversary and hoped for a wonderful experience as it was a highly recommended restaurant. From the moment we sat down and had to wait 15 minutes before the server even came to the table with water to the hour and 45 minute wait before we got our meal the experience was abysmal. There was no explanation Other than they were backed up. The restaurant wasn’t even that full yet our table and all of the tables around us were waiting for over an hour for any food to show up. The only time the manager showed up was at the end while they were serving all of the tables at the same time approximately an hour and a half to an hour and 45 minutes after ordering. When we complained to her that we had ordered well before any of our tables she said well I’m just trying to be transparent here we want to plate everything all at once. When the food finally arrived it was not edible. I ordered the most expensive plate on the menu which was the bone in ribeye. There was no meat in the ribeye it was pure fat and gristle. My wife’s dish was severely under cooked. Your first mistake was hiring a millennial as the manager of this restaurant. You will be losing customers left and right. It was clear that she was way out of her league and way over her head and offered no explanation of why this restaurant runs so poorly in her hands. I will never go to this place again and if this is the best that Tallahassee can offer ? Well. I guess there’s a reason why Tallahassee isn’t a culinary destination."

"The food here is very good. They have an extensive menu and prices are extremely reasonable. They were very busy on Friday evening when we went, and we were seated approximately 15 minutes after our reservation time. There were two of us. Service is a little spotty as they do not have sufficient staff to cover all the tables efficiently. However, our server was really hustling and doing the best she could. My primary complaint is that this restaurant is extremely noisy. It is difficult to have a conversation, even with the person sitting next to you. Sit outdoors if you can (weather permitting)."

"The food was good, the service was friendly. Cash and credit are both accepted, but cash is cheaper. There is an additional 3% charge to credit card payments. The sandwiches are on the expensive side, where a roll costs between $9-10 for just meat cheese and bread. However, the flavors are good, and they make a quality sandwich. I ordered the Rocky Balboa, chicken parm with mozzarella, and the Apllo Creed, chicken cutlet with mozzarella and vodka sauce. Their is a small lot of the side of the building for parking and metered street parking available in front. 12/2023"
