We were in Winter Haven, FL, for the weekend celebrating my friend's 50th birthday, and before…read moreheading back home on Sunday, we wanted to find a nice brunch spot with interesting, unique entrées and cocktails. That's when we came across Sauvage, a Polynesian craft bar & kitchen located in the heart of Winter Haven. From the moment we walked in, the vibe was right--vibrant, tropical, trendy, and fun. And then we spotted two retro arcade games--Mortal Kombat II and Street Fighter Turbo--that guests can play while waiting for their food. Talk about nostalgia! That definitely took us back to our childhoods. Okay, okay... I'm showing our age. Let's get back to the food! The Brunch Sauvage's menu combines Polynesian-inspired cuisine with American favorites and creative twists, which immediately caught our attention. We decided to share two entrées: Duck Confit Benedict Duck confit served over crispy hash browns, topped with poached eggs, hollandaise, and chives. Brunch Scallion Pancake A savory scallion pancake topped with scrambled eggs, cheese, millionaire bacon, island sauce, and sweet Thai chili, served with a side of grits. Both dishes were different, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I especially loved that each entrée came served in its own personalized cast-iron skillet. It made the presentation feel rustic and unique while keeping everything warm. And the portions were perfectly sized for brunch--satisfying without being overwhelmingly heavy. And Then There Was the Cocktail... We couldn't visit a Polynesian craft bar without trying one of their creative cocktails! We went with the Mango Sticky Rice Milk Punch -- made with coconut-washed brandy, mango soju, five-spice, and vanilla. This cocktail was cool, light, fruity, and refreshing, with just enough of that tropical flavor to make it feel like the perfect summer brunch drink. Honestly, I really enjoyed it! Sauvage was such a fun find for our Sunday brunch. Between the tropical atmosphere, creative Polynesian-American menu, unique cocktails, nostalgic arcade games, and beautifully presented food, it was definitely more than just your typical brunch spot. Everything we ordered was flavorful, well-portioned, and thoughtfully presented. And the fact that we discovered it while celebrating a 50th birthday weekend made the experience even better. Would I come back? Absolutely! Next time we're in Winter Haven, we're skipping brunch and coming back for dinner. I'm definitely curious to see what Sauvage is doing with their dinner menu. Sauvage gets a "we'll definitely be back" from us!

Jen was amazing and was on top of making sure we ordered the best food. Top tier service. I'm definitely coming back!

The crème brûlée is lit up on fire so if you're looking for a social media photo, this one is a must. There's plenty of parking around. I will recommend to make reservations as the place was crowded even on Wednesday. My only recommendation for the restaurant is to have a better drink menu. The menu we were giving only had a handful of beers as an example and the waiters inform us that there are many more beers than what's on the menu. I can only imagine the same may go for other cocktails and wines.

Although there was a bit of a wait, our service was great and the overall experience was positive. This is a gorgeous restaurant that is very elegant. Our server Tammy was LOVELY - so attentive (even being so busy), great recommendations and really just a delight to have as a server. We all chose a variety of things, but I had the mushroom and truffle ravioli as a starter that was very good. I could tell the pasta was made in house. My boyfriend had the spinach gnocchi that was fantastic!!! I was jealous I didn't order it lol. He got the prime rib, that he said was good. I have the prime filet that was good, but I wish the chimichurri on top had a little bit more flavor. We were bummed we couldn't order the espresso martini tower for my mother in law, but understood it would have been a huge stressor on the bar staff. We did order a few espresso martinis à la carte and they were fantastic! Definitely made with fresh espresso. Lastly, the crème brulee came out flaming and was absolutely the best I've ever had! We were really enjoying ourselves, but I wish I took more photos. We really enjoyed the experience and look forward to coming back for dinner one day!

It smelled so good that I had to ask where he has purchased it. We were hungry and it was the perfect opportunity. We were greeted as soon as we walked it. They had pizza options by the slice behind a glass window, but you could also order food to be made. I purchased a pepperoni pizza pocket for my child and a slice of pepperoni sweet pepper and hot honey. My son truly enjoyed the pizza pocket. He said he loved the garlic and cheese blend that was sprinkled on top. I loved my slice as well. It was crispy around the edges, but not burnt. I wish I could have tasted the hot honey a bit more, but overall, it was delicious and hit the spot.

She wasn't rude but she definitely had an emptiness about her... almost like she really hates being there to paint a better picture for you. The food was alright at best. Would I go back there again? Probably not. We didn't have a great experience here but it wasn't a horrible one either. A better waitress would have made the experience better for visiting but the food was still just alright.

I had the BLT and it was piled high, albeit they were extremely thin slices (I did not know it could be done, sliced so thin, to be honest), but the flavors were there and I enjoyed it very much. I had the in-house potato chips, which were barely okay. Next time I will upgrade to the onion rings, like my wife did, which were very good. Her fish sandwich consisted of a singular solid filet which was amazing. She liked it very much. The beer we consumed was ice cold and came out in seriously frosted mugs. Two thumbs up there! The prices were excellent, as far as I am concerned.

And there are plenty of tables to sit. I think there were some ladies playing the Chinese domino game, it starts with an "m". Got to meet the owner Ray and he picked out a fantastic Cab for me, it was the Story Storypoint Cab out of California. Later I also had the Martin Ray and in my opinion it was not as good, but it was a heavier mouth feel and it had layers to it. They have a piano player Wednesday and Saturday. He shows up around 6pm. So they have free slasa and chips in the back corner most nights. On Tuesday the have tacos. And Tuesday there are meatballs. On Friday they have Karaoke around 7. If you like wine, or you are an enthusiast, this would be a great place to visit if you find yourself in Winter Haven Florida. They have buy one glass 2nd half price. If you buy a bottle and stay, it is a $15 corkage fee. We kind of did the math and depending on the pour, and their pours are generous, it is cheaper to buy by the glass. When you visit they your own math gymnastics. Bottom line, Grape Expectations, the wine is great. The service is exceptionally better. And if you like a mellow vibe with great wine. You won't be disappointed in this stop. Finally, shout out to Terra, between her and Ray we had such a great time. CAN'T WAIT TO COME BACK!
