This restaurant has officially earned an O from me... ORGASMIC! From the moment you walk in, it's a…read morefull sensory experience that hits every note: sight, smell, sound, touch, taste, and most importantly, the vibe. If you're looking for a total body experience, this is it. The presentation alone is a work of art on a plate--almost too beautiful to eat. Almost. The aroma greets you at the door, teasing you with exactly what you came for and setting the tone before the 1st bite ever lands on your tongue. There's a perfect balance between a lively, energetic kitchen and a culinary dance that knows exactly how to set the mood between you and your wait staff. I love watching a kitchen that truly moves together. The way the kitchen and waitstaff flow in harmony tells you everything you need to know before the food even arrives. And then there's the food itself--textures that crunch just right, silkiness where it belongs, and a mouthfeel that's been thoughtfully mastered. Every bite delivers. The flavors explode, layering the fundamentals with deep, savory umami that lingers long after the plate is cleared. That lingering sixth sense... the feeling that stays with you is matched only by the vibe. It's that rare sense of being exactly where you're supposed to be. And where you're supposed to be is here, experiencing this food for yourself. Get on over here and tell us what you think. It will absolutely be worth the time you take out of your life to experience this culinary delight.

I visited Sate Restaurant for the first time to celebrate my sister's birthday and overall it was…read morejust okay. I started with the buffalo chicken mozzarella sticks, but they weren't for me so I sent them back. I ended up getting the blackened chicken flatbread, which was actually really good and full of flavor. A few others in my group had mixed experiences too--my cousin ordered the crispy Brussels sprouts and didn't like them, and my daughter tried the crab cake appetizer. She said the flavor was great, but the texture was too mushy inside. My sister, on the other hand, enjoyed her shrimp appetizer and said the mac and cheese egg rolls were just okay. One thing we all agreed on--the drinks were AMAZING. Definitely strong and well-made, they did not disappoint at all. The overall vibe of the restaurant is nice, especially being in the Oyster Point area. It's a great spot to hang out on a Saturday night. Not sure if I'd rush back, but it was a decent experience.

I've come to Sage Kitchen several times. Every time, the food is top tier. The chicken sandwich was…read moreone of the best things I've eaten and I dream about it. I can't believe I forgot to review after that experience. Recently, I came for lunch. I got the chicken salad sandwich and it was delicious. The salad was fresh and very good as well. I had to come back on my lunch break and get it again to go. It was just as delicious as I remember. I lie that Sage is tucked inside of Anderson's. You can have it all - coffee, delicious food, and plants. So many plants! I will definitely return!

Fresh flavors in a comfortable setting!!!!!…read more Sage Kitchen at Anderson's in Newport News offers a pleasant dining experience with a focus on fresh, thoughtfully prepared dishes. The food was flavorful and well-presented, with a menu that feels balanced and approachable. A few items really stood out, while others were solid but not unforgettable. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, making it a nice spot for a casual meal or a laid-back evening out. Service was friendly and attentive, though it slowed slightly during busier moments. Overall, Sage Kitchen delivers good food and a comfortable vibe. With a bit more consistency and speed during peak times, it could easily earn a full five stars.

Had a great time celebrating a friend's birthday here over the weekend. Initially we were told…read morethere would be a set 3 course menu because of the size of the dinner party but upon arrival they were out of many things on that menu. They were also out of the snake river Wagyu ribeye and strip steak. We were told they didn't receive a shipment of meat. The food was really good regardless of that, luckily they had three orders of lamb chops left so some of us ordered the rest of that. I like that when you order a steak it already comes with two sides. Other steakhouses you would have to order sides à la carte. The cocktails were amazing and service was great. Only thing that was a little weird was we had two birthdays and asked the manager if they happened to do a complimentary birthday dessert or something for the two birthday guest. He responded politely with we don't do any birthday desserts but you can order champagne since it's a celebration. Mind you it's a party of 12 and each couple's bill was at least 250+. Nonetheless, we had a great time and money was well spent, definitely worth trying out!

The restaurant is beautifully designed, and the staff provided professional, attentive, and friendly service throughout our visit. Unfortunately, the food did not meet our expectations. While everything was presented well, the flavors were somewhat bland and lacked the level of taste and quality we anticipated for the price point. Given what we spent, we felt we could have received a more memorable dining experience elsewhere, such as Eddie V's, where both the atmosphere and flavor profile tend to align with the premium cost. Overall, the service and ambiance were highlights of the evening, but the food itself fell short of delivering the complete upscale dining experience we were expecting

When it is cold, do not sit near the door because there is a strong, cold draft that is constantly blowing. Mak made me a delicious mocktail. She was also an excellent server. I had the crab dip and the shrimp and grits. The dip did not have enough crab meat and the mayonnaise was overbearing. The shrimp and grits were okay, it was a little too soupy and greasy. The restaurant is small and quaint, but it adds a nice touch to that area.

I was so shocked at the flavor they held how tender they were. Oh my goodness I can still taste it through memory. Every time I visit this place, the waitresses and servers are always warm and welcome. They make you feel like family. This place always has the perfect level of music where you don't have to feel like you're yelling to have a conversation. It's never too much and always appropriate. The place is always clean.

Once again, Sophia and I came here for breakfast. Given it's my birthday month, using my freebie…read morewas a given. And every time we've been here, I have yet to leave with a sad face. Let's see if this visit continues the trend. We were greeted by the staff when we walked inside and got seated in about 2 minutes when they sorted out a minor issue. No worries at all. They were all busy with customers who looked like they enjoyed their visit. The decor overall was all clean and put together. A vibe which was very calm and welcoming. After looking over the menu, we were ready to order. I selected their Chimichurri Steak and Eggs Hash dish with Pineapple Express as the beverage. Very delicious. All was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. I actually had their beverage a year ago and didn't know until I saw my photo (call it amnesia...LOL), but like before, wonderful. Sophia enjoyed her Eggs Benedict dish as well. Just like many, many times, we both left happy. First Watch came through once again :)

First of all can I just say WOW!…read more We were excited at the first because we thought the Neat Bird from Chesapeake had a new location in Norfolk Colley Avenue but there chicken sandwich was even delicious here too with a different owner! We met the owner, he is a cool band guy with a mustache name Dand. The drinks he made for us were so good and so was the way he talked with his staff and the way they worked together. My parner and I had seen that they pride themselfes on Scottish eggs, which we were lucky to try and it was also very delicious! We like that they have the vibe and also a board with many events of the community on the wall to check out while you sip on a delicious expresso martini. Good job to the Bird! now dont go opening another restaurant in Chesapeake or we will all be very confused!

Had brunch at The Bird on a Monday morning a couple of weeks ago, and it was amazing. The ambiance…read moreis cozy and homey, with a few tables outside, some high-top tables inside, bar seating, three half-booth tables, and even a couch area. You order at the register, and the staff brings the food out to your table. Everyone was attentive, and we had no issues with the service. We ordered the waffle plate, which came topped with fruit alongside eggs and their house sausage. We also tried the Huevos Rancheros, the Sausage Egg & Cheese sandwich, and a build-your-own omelette. For drinks, we ordered the brown sugar cold brew, dulce de leche cold brew, drip coffee, and an espresso martini. The waffle was huge, and the sides were great. My only complaint was that it could have used more fruit, as there were only a few small pieces. The Huevos Rancheros were delicious and came with a generous serving of avocado. The only thing that caught us off guard was the lack of salsa, since in traditional Huevos Rancheros the salsa is a key component. Even so, the dish was still flavorful and filling. The omelette was excellent, and the breakfast sandwich was equally delicious. I was especially impressed by the house-made jam, house-made hot sauce, and the perfectly seasoned home fries. As for the drinks, the brown sugar cold brew was excellent, but the dulce de leche version was far too sweet for my taste. From what I understood, they use two flavored syrups to make it, and I think using smaller portions of each would create a better balance. We ended up adding oat milk and some drip coffee to tone it down. The drip coffee itself was solid and came with free refills. The espresso martini really tied brunch together for me -- strong, well-made, and delicious. Overall, we really enjoyed both the food and the experience, and we'll definitely be back.
