    Chicken && waffel
    Krystal H.

    The food was plentiful && very flavorful. I was skeptical but the food was amazing. The biscuit was warm && fresh.. the chicken was juicy. The waffle && pancake melts in your mouth. The service was pretty fast && the outside seating was a nice view of downtown.

    I was looking forward to my visit here but I was disappointed. My friend ordered a hamburger topped with a fried egg over medium. The waitress had a hard time understanding what over medium means, so we explained.... I ordered two pancakes, with two eggs over medium. Once again I had to eggsplain what over medium meant . The pancakes were huge! Bigger is not necessarily better because these things were rubbery and tasteless. They charged me $19 for the burger and another $4 for the egg ! Our waitress seemed out of it. Don't know if she was medicated but something wasn't right.

    Second time here on a 4 day trip, we love their food. The sausage gravy is delicious and their biscuits are a must have. Service was fast and friendly. We were sat right away and food came out pretty quick. Super chill spot. The pancakes were super soft. Everything was on point. We were even offered drinks to go once we paid.

    Shrimp and grits

    Hands down the best shrimp and grits I have ever had; better yet, get your shrimp blackened. Wonderful staff as well!!

    This is one our go to places for breakfast / brunch in the Bradenton area. Get there quickly as there may be a wait , but it's well worth it! Becca's chicken biscuit is jam packed with flavor and the "Heller Sauce" adds a spicy kick. Make sure to stop by & get a seat or soak up the sunlight with outside seating as well.

    Vegan tofu scramble

    My mom, sister, and I decided to come to Sage biscuit cafe for brunch for a girls day. This place is always poppin with people which tells you how good it is! You can use the Yelp app to join the waitlist in advance if you'd like which is helpful. Parking is in a public lot paid with ParkMobile app, so be prepared. We each got coffees (my sister and I got iced, my mom got hot), and for entrees we got the vegan tofu scramble, Mediterranean omelette and veggie hash. The food was fantastic, and special shout out to the sage biscuits! The reason this is a 4 star review is because our server wasn't incredibly attentive; it took 3 tries to get a hot coffee. However overall wonderful place for brunch!

    Shrimp and Grits

    Tinkering back and forth between a 3 and 4 star rating, Sage Biscuit ultimately did the job, though a few facets could've been improved upon. Sunday around 1pm, we figured we'd have to wait for a table. We waited 20 minutes and were seated inside. *Pro tip* wait inside the office building to take advantage of the AC! The menu is HUGE, ranging from breakfast and brunch classics to lunch items. It was very difficult to decide and I ended up going with one of their specials, the shrimp and grits. It was a giant plate and with it being my first meal of the day around 2pm I scarfed most of it down. There were only 4 shrimp included. C'mon now, it's SHRIMP and grits after all! They loaded it with red peppers, which is fine, but it's not red peppers and grits...The grits were on the bland side and needed copious amounts of butter and salt. Again, I was starving so I ate it. But I wouldn't order it again. And though we could tell our server was in the industry for a long time (didn't write our order down) we had to wait a really long time for the check. As the restaurant was slowing down we felt neglected for a while when we needed to get a move on things. Not rushing back the next time I'm in Bradenton. But they do have a lot of seating and a large menu to accommodate different taste buds!

    Brussel sprouts & bacon egg Benedict
    Daniela G.

    The good - as always was delicious. I don't think the Benedict is worth $17, but I think that's the product of the times. Coffee woke me up with the first sip. My server was super quick and proactive. I sat outside, and she never forgot about me. This restaurant will remain in my breakfast rotation.

    Sage Biscuit Skillet Becca's Chicken Biscuit

    Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 This place was so good we went 3 times on our 3 day stay. The first time we had Sage Biscuit Skillet, and Chicken Sandwhich. Both blew us away with the flavor. Skillet was jam packed with flavor. The chicken biscuit sandwhich was perfectly cooked with a taster sauce to dip our American fries. It was so good we went back for breakfast the next day. We got the same skillet (it was that good), a croissant sandwhich, and strawberry stuffed French toast (PHENOMENAL)! Third day we tried to go somewhere else, but the food was so bad we settle our bill and headed over to Sage.. Again, it did not disappoint. We will be returning here if we are ever in the area again!

    Came here to say for a celebration brunch with coworkers. There are two locations and we all ended up after different ones and had to correct that issue lol. They have outside and inside seating. Multiple items to choose from in the menu. I will definitely say get the omelet and sage biscuit. One of the best biscuits (outside of my Nana's) that I have had. I would go back just for those! So light and fluffy and great taste. Until next review Kisses

    We were in the downtown Bradenton area yesterday (Monday) morning and decided to stop. It was 8a and they were not busy. Their hostess station is outside the main doors. When we arrived a server/hostess was walking a dude to an outside table and said she'd be right back. She never came back. It was so humid, I finally had to step inside where I proceeded to wait again. A customer joked with me and said just go back there and get them. I said I'm walking out before I go back and get them. Finally seated. I ordered the sage biscuits and gravy with a side of fruit instead of potatoes or grits. My husband ordered the corned beef hash with 2 over easy eggs, it came with a sage biscuit and either potatoes, grits or the fruit. He asked the server if the corned beef hash was made in house and was told yes. It was not. They did add onions and peppers to the hash, instead of serving as is from their food purveyor, so there's that. The eggs were cooked beautifully. My meal was tasty, the gravy on the biscuits could have been hotter but still delicious. The biscuits had a great flavor and were crispy around the edges. We spent over 30$ + tip for breakfast. Which I think is a bit much but they are in a commercial building and I'm sure their rent warrants this pricing. The bathroom is not in the restaurant but in the lobby of the building. I'm not sure how you get to it, I think through the server's station between the dining room and the kitchen. They have indoor outdoor seating as well as single seating at a counter. Parking is across the street and it's a pay to park lot. Your choices are 4 or 8 hours. Four hours was ~5$. We opted to take a chance and did not pay. Would I go back? I mean if that's where any of my friends or colleagues wanted to go, I would. But for me and my husband, probably not. We have great breakfast spots closer to our home and less expensive. But the biscuits were really good.

    Came to Sage Biscuit Cafe to get out of our normal routine. When we arrived 2 hours prior to closing, we expected we would be seated quickly but they were still on a 45 minute wait! Atmosphere: We sat at the bar which was cozy, could have used a little more decor to feel homey but that's ok. Service: Our server was swamped and did a great job greeting us and telling us she'd be back. She gave great recommendations and the time it took to get our food was better than expected. Food: The food was above average. We got the raging burrito and the caramel brioche French toast. The burrito needed more of a sauce for which we used hot sauce. The overall flavor was very good just needed a sauce to bring it all together. The French toast was delicious! We also had a side of grits and a sage biscuit. The grits were average, a bit on the dry side. The biscuit was a must try and it did not disappoint. Drinks: The mimosa was perfect and the lattes were much better than I expected. Overall, a very positive experience and we would certainly go back.

    Let's start with the fact that we walked in, were greeted warmly, and got a table immediately…read more Always a plus! The place was cute and CLEAN, which is another huge plus in my book. Our server, Mary, was amazing - she was training a new server, Amy, and they were both great! I overheard Mary explaining some "first-time customer protocol" to Amy, which happened to be to our benefit because they brought us a cinnamon churro donut to try! Such a sweet touch and a fun way to make first-time customers feel welcome. As we ordered, Mary offered suggestions and was helpful without ever being pushy. Both Mary and Amy were attentive and friendly, and the service was excellent. My husband ordered the Club Sandwich, my daughter ordered the Belgian Fruit Waffle, and I ordered the West Coast Arnold. Our ratings: Husband: 8/10 Daughter: 9.5/10 Me: 10/10 And please know that my husband is a HARSH critic, so an 8 from him is basically a 10. And that churro donut they so sweetly let us try? My daughter and I both tried it, and I'd give it an 8/10 for taste and a 100/10 for allowing us to try it! Overall, we had a wonderful first experience. Great food, great service, a clean and cute atmosphere, and little touches that made us feel welcomed. We'll definitely be back!

My favorite Hungarian dish chicken paprikas. Honed in on that..... and then she asked if we would like a homemade lemonade, of course, why not! Let me tell you, that was such a refreshing drink. Perfect for the smothering heat. Food came out and I was intrigued. A little different looking than I'm used to but knew it looked delicious. It was!! Mixed all that yumminess together and added a touch of salt on top and it melted in my mouth! No they did not pay me to write this, yes we paid for our food. Next is dessert! I can't remember the name of it but it kind of reminded me of tiramisu with chocolate syrup at the bottom, walnuts and grapes, light fluffy cake, and whipped cream with chocolate syrup over it. It was heaven! Nothing felt heavy in my stomach and I felt very satisfied leaving. We will return!

The waitress was very nice and answered my questions about the different dishes. It was difficult to make a decision because everything on the menu sounded like I wanted to try it. The food portions are large and the dishes are presented like in a gourmet restaurant. I tried the chicken paprikash and my husband had a pork steak. Everything was fabulous! You can tell the food is freshly prepared when you hear the schnitzel being pounded in the kitchen and ten minutes later, it is served at the table next to you. It was a great dining experience and I will be back for sure.
