came close to giving a 2. First off food was excellent. Reasonable price. However waiting 45 min for your food is unacceptable. it is clear they do not know what TIP stands for (To Insure Promptness). The problem is you order and prepay before you get your food. So most of us would TIP then. However it was in customer service that they get a. F / one star. Asked several times about food told twice they would check. Then nobody got back to us. It was only when my wife got up and asked the cashier / manager that there seemed to be some moemt. When she did bring our food and I complained about the wait she said they were busy. When I suggested that maybe when someone's ordering their meal they are told you won't get served for at least 30 minutes. She made a few more excuses. She could have earned a few pints if she would have asked if she could refill our drinks, that is usually self service. So my recommendations. go when nobody is there, and do not expect good customer service. read more

I was here for the Plant Bingo event , and had the opportunity to get some dinner while here. The line was long, but to be expected due the event. But the staff moved the line pretty quick and the food came out in a decent time. We were able to eat before playing which worked out well and I had to focus on my serious bingo playing. HAHA. I opted for the sandpiper bowl. The grilled chicken was amazing. It had great flavor and the charred marks were what really did it for me. It added to the flavor! I ate all that tasty chicken. My friend loved her food as well. Their burgers looked good, and the buns looked so scrumptious. The menu is a decent size which a lot of great offerings. I could use a little more dessert options. but it was not a deal breaker. Oooo Also can we get on the mocktail train. I noticed there are more and more people looking for mocktails including the DDs. The staff were working so hard getting orders out. Taylor was amazing. She had such a good attitude and made sure we were taking care of. The seating is indoors, outdoors, and on covered patio. So you have a selection to choose from. I noticed it is a good area for families to come as there is a little outdoor play area for children. read more

Not what we expected, but WOW--what a fun Couples Cooking night at Sage Kitchen VB! Chef Mike kept it lively, teaching us to nail sautéed garlic butter shrimp & sesame noodles and bok choy & braised beef & mash potatoes with grilled bundled asparagus. Q&A was spot-on, and the staff was super attentive and friendly. Perfect date vibes! #SageKitchenVB #CouplesCooking #DateNightWin read more

What a beautiful restaurant in the back of the Anderson store. Met up with a bunch of friends and their families to have a mini reunion since we are from out of town and really enjoyed our lunch. The kids enjoyed the play area so much while the adults ate and watched them from afar. The weather was a bit chilly but still nice to sit outside to enjoy some sun. Baja bowl was tasty and do were my kids chicken tenders. You order and pay and they give you a # and you go and sit anywhere you like. read more

Great food in a quiet setting! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We ordered the flash-fried Brussels sprouts, half chicken salad croissant and half Everything salad, and California enchilada and sweet potato fries, and agave lemonade mixed with the unsweetened iced tea. Everything was fresh and because it took awhile to get out to us, the manager was kind enough to compensate our lunch. They were so apologetic and wanted to make things right and we truly appreciated their kindness! Fantastic crew at Sage Kitchen, as well as great fare!! Highly recommend this place!! read more

The food was great! But the young guy with glasses they have working the cafe register is pretty rude. Not only to me but others as well. Very short and has a tone that comes off as if he's bothered. Twice I have been there it's been the same with him. read more

There's never a time I've been here and the staff haven't been friendly and accommodating. Everyone always seems to be upset and nice. There's such a fresh and clean vibe! Walking through Andersons lovely products on your way to Sage is inspiring and tempting!! But the FOOOOOD woo! So delicious! Super fresh and tasty. This is my favorite item I usually get for myself as a treat when I do something wonderful lol. But I've eaten several things off the menu and it's all yummy! read more

This place is a hidden gem that I've slept on for too long! Love the casual café feel, and expensive local menu. Fun drinks are a plus in atmosphere is a 10/10. They just put out their fall menu, but server was super nice in helping me navigate. read more

Burgers were terrible.. the drinks and food is very overpriced and not good at all. Cost is over a $100 for 2 burgers and a drink each .

Went for their new Sunday brunch today! Got the green juice, virgin Bloody Mary, crab cake tacos, and strawberry French toast. Everything was super fresh and delicious! I added the black bean salad onto my tacos and it was a game changer. Totally recommend their brunch! Bartender Gia totally crushed the bar drinks and the garnish was on point. I've seriously never had prettier drinks. She even went out of her way to check after we got them to make sure they were tasting just as good! Bussers were on point, never had to wait more than 30 seconds with a dirty plate on the table. Manager Mike was doing personal checks on everyone to make sure they were doing okay. I can't say enough great things about this place! The service, food, and vibes are always . read more

First of all, Wow. Families can literally be here all day. Its a garden center with a secret spin. There are nice things to buy, a bar, beautiful open kitchen with local food, and the food is so tasty! My fiancé had the burger, highly recommended, I had the tacos ranch-so bomb, and our daughter got the tenders and fried pickles- fried to perfection! Staff is lively and kind, they deliver to table so bring a tip! You are surrounded by plants with open garage doors to seating, playground, stage,arcade, mini golf, its great for big family get togethers. We cant wait to go back and stay for the garden lights to come on! Don't miss this hidden gem read more

Went here for the first time on a Friday night and it was pretty busy. We mainly came for the play area and the food so I can't speak too much on the shopping/garden aspects of it. I love how this place is unique. You can't find many places where you can enjoy food while your kids play other than at a fast food restaurant or in the comfort of your own home. This place makes it easy for adults to enjoy a meal while their kids burn off some energy. The only thing about this place is that the food is wayyyy overpriced and it took forever to come out. Which I understand because when we were there, there were only 2 chefs in the kitchen and 2 waitresses. Other than that, this is a super chill place. I wish it wasn't so far from other places, but I guess it works out because it makes it feel safer. Highly recommend this place! read more

Sage Kitchen is a perfect place to eat, especially if you have a little one who doesn't like to sit still lol! My husband and I were able to eat and relax as our little one played at the playground outside. We sat outside, next to the playground which was perfect to keep an eye as our son was playing. Definitely one of my favorite to go restaurants especially if you have kids! read more

I gotta say, I was really frustrated by my experience, but Jason the owner reached out personally and definitely went above and beyond to make everything right. A+++ customer service. These guys really care about your experience. Thank you! read more

We really love Sage Kitchen, and have been coming here for the last two years whenever we're in the VB area. The food is consistently good and there's a lot to choose from; it's also very family friendly which we love for our two young children. My only complaint is that the prices are a little high but it's worth it for what you're getting which is quality food in a cozy atmosphere (with a playground in the back to boot!). The service is great and the staff are very friendly. read more

Updating my review to *FIVE STARS* because this place is amazing and I should have never given it four stars. We love this place and it's a gem! Food is great, atmosphere is great, and kids have a great time too. There is no table service anymore (wish there was) but we are used to it now. read more

Great place for families! I love the concept and we enjoyed our time. You order at the counter and then get a number and take a seat. The kitchen was backed up so they give you a buzzer and when it goes off (about 20 min) you can order food. We ordered apps and entrees at the same time and it all came out at the same time. If you want them separate be sure to order separately. The food was good but I felt it was overpriced for what it is. I forgot to get pics but I got the Jammy Patty Melt with fries. The sandwich was good but I didn't love it. The fries weren't fully cooked but they replaced them and they were much better. I got the old fashioned and I'd order it again. If I'm at a restaurant I always prefer a glass for my drink. The other drinks seemed to all come in disposable cups. However, disposable cups are fitting for the setting. In summary: beautiful setting, okay food, higher prices. read more

Had breakfast at Sage Kitchen this morning. My wife and I split the quesadilla and the avocado toast. We both had the fruit cup for our side. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. We'll definitely be back. read more

Sage kitchen is awesome place to have brunch, etc. They have a wide variety of options for sandwiches and you can "have it your way"! I love their chicken quesadilla. There's nothing like shopping for things to make your yard welcoming and beautiful and taking a break to recharge before heading home to plant your flowers and decorate. I love how they have fresh herbs they grow for the food you order. read more

I think I have found my new favorite lunch/dinner spot!! First off I don't think I have ever seen a more adorable and pretty place to eat! I love the outside area for the kiddos to play and enjoy. The service was top notch!! Every one was kind and helpful! The food was absolutely delicious and the portions were huge! I had the Baja bowl and it was beyond delicious! I don't think I even ate a quarter of it! My friend and had the Mac and cheese bites and bowl of tomato soup and said it was delicious.

Let me preface this with the fact that I spent 20 years in the restaurant business. This food is good and the price for good quality food is going to be high. This is a farm (greenhouse) to table concept, so no surprises there, but the prices align with venues that employ servers (more on that later) and that is not the way this place works. Ambiance-family friendly outdoor seating with play areas for those families with kids. Seems clean... WHAT I HATED....not the service but the SERVICE MODEL this place settled on. Let me describe it.... When you arrive you enter through the store and come to a table where a "hostess" tells you that you must order food before getting a table outside. We were meeting another couple and they were arriving later. Politeness would require we order and eat together. I informed her that we were going to wait to order took a menu and preceded outside. 2 things, either she has not been properly trained OR this is the policy she is required to enforce. Either way, it nearly caused us to leave. I would rescript this interaction like this, "Thanks for trying us out! We don't have table service but you can order alcoholic beverages here and soft drinks here. When you are ready to order food, and our food is great, come back in. You can leave your tab open or close it after each order. A "runner" will bring you order to you so you don't have to wait for your order to be prepared. " The whole system is weird and off-putting. Where can you buy a cocktail-not at the bar that is manned on the patio apparently, where does silverware come from? Why are my tip choices 18-25% if there is no service? Only two positives were the chef and a very young blond boy who was a "busser". He was kind and tried to be helpful. The whole experience could be so much better. read more

We were wowed from the minute we hit the door! We ate in the "outdoor" area facing the playground for the kiddos. Food and service were exceptional. Yes, I had to go get my drink but I needed the exercise. read more

The food was great! Pricy but really good. The drinks were not that good. Far too much juice. Not much to say on service as you order first then sit. We LOVED that there was such a huge play space for kids. Overall we loved it but it was very expensive. read more

For the price and experience, it was completely not worth it. All of the menu items are very basic and any add ons, even things like lettuce for their $14 burger, costs extra. On this particular day, staff was preparing for a wedding reception so we ordered at the counter and waited for our food to come to our table. Everything else was self served like sauce and drinks (water, tea, pink lemonade). We got a sandwich and chicken tenders early in the morning bc they didn't actually have breakfast items and it ended up being almost $40 for whatever reason! I wanted fried pickles (which was a $2 up charge) and I only got two, and they were tiny and completely hard. Overall, I think the whole group just wished we went somewhere else for brunch because we weren't expecting there to be a limited menu and limited staff. I think based off pictures of food they serve online, it just missed our expectations. I do appreciate there being things to do in the back for kids - there is a play area and we got to enjoy some time outdoors! read more

Alright, so I thought I had gotten the address wrong but it's in this really cool shopping area. There's the garden center out back and the playground that's good for the kiddos. They open at 1000 and you order at the counter. It's a little pricey, $56 bucks for a bowl, kids meal, cookie, and mimosa flight. Ordered the Tuna Poke bowl and it was really good! Kiddo's cheeseburger was alright and the fries would have been better if they were crispier. They missed the mark on the coconut mimosa and the chocolate chip cookies were delightful. I would go back, but overall it's a bit pricey for two people, one being a kid. read more

I stopped by Sage Kitchen to pickup a togo order. When i walked up to the counter i was greeted. They were still preparing my food. I ordered a salad, a soft fried egg, and fried pickles. Which was about $16. I was eyeballing the pecan pie cheesecake, but was advised it was plant based. So i put it back. Lol. My experience in the past with plant based desserts wasn't a win. But it did look good. The website has the egg listed but it shows up as a cookie when they receive the order. The cashier was nice about the mistake and offered me an extra cookie. I was fine with that. Those cookies were delicious!! Glad the mistake happened.. Lol. The salad was very fresh. So fresh that i couldn't taste the dressing much. Its a garlic ranch dressing and it had real potential, but once its poured on the salad it lost its flavor. But by itself it was good. Definitely ask for extra dressing. I got 1 dressing for a decent sized salad and it wasn't enough. So i went back and got 2 more. The cup is only half full so it still didn't cover my salad. The fried pickles were ok, it comes with a dipping sauce. The breading was crunchy and i appreciated that. The visit was ok. I'd like to try a sandwich next time. They look pretty good. But some items are high priced. $14 for a burger with NO side. You can add a side though for about $3 which isn't to bad. But for that price it should probably be included. All in all its a nice restaurant and I'd probably return. Check them out. read more

We came for brunch this morning and it was AMAZING!!! We got the French toast and Quesadilla and they were so delicious!!! The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was wonderful. Make sure you order up front because they dont have waiters but once you order everything is delivered with a smile. We will be returning next Sunday! read more

The ambiance is great and the overall layout is spacious However we waited 30 min to order and the rice wasn't cooked, appetizer never arrived and there was only one waitress for the outside plus the drinks are expensive. Has potential but wouldn't recommend it till new cooks and management are hired. read more

This place is amazing! Nestled in the back of Anderson's store, Sage Kitchen was a vibrant little gem that had a lot more to offer than we expected. The menu has a variety of healthy food options and juices, and the brusselsprouts are to die for! Not going to lie, I think their crispy brussels might be the best I've ever tasted. There is seating inside but the real jewel is the outside seating which is perfect for when the weather is nice on a nice fall day. The outside patio has plants decorated around it which make you feel like you're eating in a greenhouse, but also mixed with a beachy vibe. There is a jungle gym-esque playground on the patio with putt-putt golf and plenty of space for kids to run around while parents sit and chat. There is also a game arcade in the back where you can come work off some of the food. The only issue we had is that the table umbrella kept tilting away from the sun due to the wind so it would have been nice if there was a locking mechanism to keep the umbrella in place. But other than that, this place was the bomb. I will definitely be coming back! read more

We came for the drive in grinch movie, Sage kitchen provides movie goers with their menu and a convenient online ordering system by scanning their provided code right in your phone. Since we were doing a movie, my toddlers request was a cheese pizza and my husband wanted chicken tenders and fries. Food was ready at the bar 10 minutes after ordering. Masks are required. I'm not sure what happened with our order but the cheese pizza was on the over done side with very crunchy crust. It looked nothing like the cheese pizza pictured on their website while ordering. Luckily my toddler loved her crunchy over done somewhat burned pizza and she ate it all, I personally thought it was awful. My husband and I shared the chicken tenders, unfortunately those were well over done as well and I could barely chew the chicken it was so rubbery. I decided I did not want to purchase anything else this evening. It was about 37 degrees outside so I decided I didn't want to walk back to the restaurant and request my food be prepared again. We hope to order something different at our next movie to give them another try. read more

This was our first time dining at sage kitchen. The cashier was friendly and gave us an adorable little number in a flower pot to put on our table so they could deliver our food to us. We found a nice table outside but they do have inside seating. There's a shaded area and a non shaded area outside as well as a playground for kids. The drinks came out first and were so refreshing. The food came right behind that in a timely manner even though they were a little busy. If you're a ranch person, you'll be happy with their yummy ranch lol. All of the food was delicious. There is a drink station inside near the bar area where you can get your own water and takeout boxes as needed. We are locals so will definitely be regulars here. On the way out we noticed a freezer with Lollys ice cream and some local ice cream sandwiches. We will be back for those! read more

One of my favorite places in Va Beach, very unique! They have a great menu that is delicious and the adult beverage selection is good too! They have local bands or acoustic music events which make this a great experience to shop, eat and enjoy music. They also have a kiddie game room area that is available away from the Adult entertainment area so everyone can enjoy in the same spot. Great selection of clothing and plant accessories as well! read more

Overrated and overpriced. We came for the breakfast buffet and was disappointed. If you are vegan, vegetarian or pescatarian, just go ahead and skip this place. The buffet was $25 per person but it was about as good as your basic complimentary breakfast at a hotel. Mediocre pancakes, melon, bacon, Brussel sprouts cooked with bacon, fried potatoes, mini donuts and a sad and limited omelette station. Beverages like orange juice are included but when I went to get more one of the wait staff said I was too late...even though the orange juice was right in front of me. It's the little things. I didn't make a fuss but it just added to an already terrible experience. Heavy carb, heavy fried, heavy fried buffet. They have a target audience but I am not it. read more
