SAGE " Serving A Great Experience"…read more The food here is amazing! So amazing in fact, we requested to meet the chef and ask him where he learned to cook like that. Personally, I travel the world in search of GREAT food and this restaurant, SAGE, met the mark! I was a bit weary of the service at first... But, I must say Charles and Rickey (Owners) made sure that my family and I felt and experienced the "GREAT EXPERIENCE" that SAGE aims to provide. Special shoutout to our waitress KD who listened, served, and ensured that the restaurant was clean and well maintained during our visit. Overall, beautiful restaurant and great food! Be sure to add it to your list. Visited on 8/16/2026

The food and drinks were great, and both the waitress and bartender were very friendly. Unfortunately, the overall experience was overshadowed by the manager (Chris). During our visit, he spoke to employees in a very rude and unprofessional manner, loud enough for customers to hear. He also interacted with guests at the bar and tables with the same attitude. To make it worse, he openly and loudly announced that he was intoxicated, which created an uncomfortable atmosphere. It's disappointing because the service and food themselves were excellent. Also, what manager manages a restaurant wearing flip flops?

I had the three piece dark chicken with the sweet potatoes casserole and mash potatoes with gravy. The mashed potatoes had quite a few lumps and everything kind of gave a powdery taste (gravy, casserole, and mashed potatoes). When I say powdery... I'm saying that it just wasn't giving "homemade". It's not intolerable but it's not what you look for when you go to a soulfood restaurant. I also wasn't a fan of the wait. We have some made to order items so it was understood about the 20 minute wait, but we didn't get our food until almost an hour after paying. The extra time waiting seemed to be due to fried green tomatoes not being made in tandem with the fried chicken. As a result, everything was luke warm by the time we got the food. It's truly sad because the flavor is definitely there. The texture, the powdery residual taste and the wait time leaves me at this place being a one time experience at the least and a, "if I had to" at the most.

The catfish is made to order, was perfectly crispy and well seasoned. Definitely top 3 catfish meals for me in the area. The mac and cheese was some of the best I have had. It was creamy and savory, it wasn't too fatty and had a firm texture. It was definitely the highlight of the meal. The green beans had a bit of a mushy texture but I really enjoyed regular green beans. The meal comes with a side or cornbread which was filling , fluffy and sweet. Fantastic soul food for me. The banana pudding was also delicious. You can also actually taste banana not just sugar. The people working there were honestly so kind and chill. They knew what to recommend and added to the dining experience. My only criticisms come with how some of the food is prepared for example the green been texture being on the mushy side is likely due to it being presented similarly to a buffet. I was also unable to have a whisky due to the bar being closed however it was 2pm on a weekday. Overall great experience

Being from the west coast, we figured 6 of us would be in the $125 range with tip. The whole meal was something like $80 with tip, coffee and a plenty to snack on! They even gave us coffees to go.

They have been just off the main interstate there for over 9yrs now. Appetizer: Fried Crawfish tails Main: Catfish & Shrimp combo platter Sides: Hush puppies, boiled & fried corn on the cob, fries, slaw. Dessert: No chance! Was too stuffed! This is a cajun joint so expect that sorta taste. Fish was good. Fried shrimp may have been the best I've ever had away from the coast. Fries are the perfect fry for a fish & shrimp combo platter. Hush puppies & slaw are a huge miss, but those crawfish tails & their dipping sauce stole the show. All of their dipping sauces were absolutely great. Boiled corn on the cob was better than fried, but they were both outstanding. Great stop on your way to Memphis or leaving from Memphis going northwest. Service was decent. Prob would have been more excited to see us if we didn't come 45 min before closing, but thats on us. It's got an old Backyard Burger vibe but w/TVs everywhere & servers. Got a good size outdoor patio for thats nice evenings w/no mosquitoes & less than 85 degree heat. The owner of this place also has another local restaurant just across the parking lot called Venue. I will be trying that out on my next trip thru there.

We really enjoyed the catfish basket for lunch which included 4 good-sized cornmeal-crusted filets that were perfectly fried and were moist and decently seasoned. The coleslaw was a classic mayo-based version that complemented the rest of the basket. The tartar sauce was good as well, and the fries were crispy. The basket also came with a Hawaiian roll and a single hush puppy that was tasty. The fried shrimp was plump and also nicely fried and juicy, and the accompanying cocktail sauce was decent as well. The original Coke with pellet ice in the classic red cup was very refreshing on a hot day. Definitely recommend trying it out!

What started as lunch quickly turned into karaoke -- LOL! The atmosphere was fun, welcoming, and full of good vibes. The food was so amazing that we had to personally meet the cook. Tyrone came out to our table, and let's just say that tip was WELL deserved! As we say in the Carolinas, "he put his foot in that food!" There were 13 of us, and despite our large group, the waitress never skipped a beat -- all while being the only server working during Friday lunch service. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and positive attitude truly stood out. The service, food, and ambiance made this an unforgettable experience, and these Carolinians will definitely be back! I couldn't attach the video of us singing; however, here we are! See you all next year ~DDT-LOC~
