What a lovely mid-week adventure! Great parking and easy access in. Didn't explore the entire space but they do have a cozy bar room and bright modern dining area with well spaced tables. I had bumping into other guests. Looked like they also have sheltered outdoor seating. Menu is a good size with excellent selections of apps and meals of different sizes. HAD to have the Heather Martini and the poutine! Burger was perfect and so were the fries. Staff was friendly and chatty and very polite and gracious. Two thumbs up. So enjoyed my experience I forgot pics. read more

While the restaurant itself is lovely, with several dining areas offering different décor and ambiance, and the service was genuinely warm and attentive (special shoutout to Dana for her bubbly energy), the food left a lot to be desired. We didn't get a chance to photograph our meals, but previous reviews accurately capture the appearance of the shrimp scampi. Here's a quick breakdown of our experience: The clam chowder was extremely thick and overly salty. After just a few bites, we couldn't finish more than about a quarter of the bowl. The shrimp scampi featured a generous portion of shrimp, but the dish was overwhelmed by an excessive amount of chopped tomatoes and garlic. I've never added tomatoes to scampi. The lobster and "truffle mushroom" ravioli was the biggest disappointment. There was no discernible mushroom flavor - truffle or otherwise. The ravioli was served in a light cream sauce but, once again, with an overwhelming amount of chopped tomatoes and garlic which was suspiciously the same chopped version on the scampi. The filling contained very little lobster, and the tomatoes (which tasted more like sun-dried tomatoes) dominated every bite. We enjoy both tomatoes and garlic, but their heavy use completely overpowered these dishes. Even more surprising, neither ingredient is highlighted in the menu description (see menu photos), making the dishes quite different from what we expected. We'd consider returning for fries and a beer in the bar area, but we wouldn't order entrees here. read more

We were greeted by Andy who made me feel like a long lost friend, though it was my first time there! Savannah is an excellent server; she is sharp, sweet, and personable. She was top notch! Maria, who brought dessert, was sweet as dessert! Chelsea at the bar was top notch as well! The food was amazing! And we are going to see a comedy show here right after. Don't miss out on this place! read more

I stopped into Sage & Salt for the last day of Litchfield Restaurant Week. I ordered the lemon sage spritzer, poutine, grilled beet salad, and the bread pudding with caramel sauce. The service was a bit slow. However, a member of the waitstaff told the table behind us that the kitchen was backed up. Although our waitress never told us that, I appreciated the transparency. Initially, I was taken aback by the deconstructed poutine, but the flavor was great. The fried cheese curds were a fun twist, and the gravy was very savory. The fries were shoestring fries, so the gravy being directly added to the fries would have made them soggy, so I totally understand why the gravy was on the side. The beet salad was tasty, and the apple cider vinegar had a great acidity to it. My boyfriend got the brussel sprouts as an appetizer, which were amazing! I think next time, I would order the brussel sprouts to add to the grilled beet salad as an extra fun element! I really enjoyed the bread pudding with caramel sauce for dessert. I was stuffed, so I had to take it to go, but it was just as delicious the next day. The restaurant reopened recently and still has a few kinks to work out, such as the slow service. However, the food was good, I loved the decor and color scheme, and the music was at the perfect volume for wanting to chat with your partner or friends. I think once they get more into the swing of things, this will be a great spot in Litchfield! read more

Just wanted to send a shout out to this restaurant and its staff. We had a graduation dinner for my daughter here about a week ago. When we went to check the place out, they were more than helpful in showing us what was available. We ended up booking the porch, which is fantastic. We felt like we were at the beach! The food was great, including for vegetarians and seafood lovers. The ambiance was really perfect for the occasion. The wait staff was really helpful in accommodating two of our party who had particular needs regarding temperature. Thank you very much to all! read more

We visited Sage and Salt last week during Litchfield's Restaurant Week 2026 and enjoyed a good dining experience. The menu was limited, appropriately so for this week-long event, but still with plenty of choices. Ours were good: the appetizers included tasty calamari, not overcooked and rubbery, and a delicious shrimp cocktail (big shrimp if you'll forgive the oxymoron!). The fish and chips was yummy, just the right amount of crispiness, and the seared tuna was also correctly prepared and not dry and overdone. The sage chicken was tender and well seasoned. We didn't particularly care for the blueberry crumble dessert -- too bland -- but we didn't really need dessert anyway, and we very much enjoyed everything else. Beth was a good server, friendly and very attentive. All in all, this meal for $35 per was well worth it, and we are happy for Sage and Salt -- and for ourselves since we expect to return! read more

It's a cozy spot with the option of the dining area or lounge for seating (as well as outdoor seating; weather dependent). We made a little over an hour drive and were not disappointed. The Caprese Pasta was solid, and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. If I were in the area, I would definitely return. read more

Sage and Salt is the new incarnation of the Saltwater Grille, and the revamping seems to have been for the best. I remember having a burger last year at the Saltwater Grille - it was sad and tough. I had one at new Sage and Salt - it was hot, juicy, and well seasoned. Absolutely delicious. The appetizers of poutine and a giant pretzel were also cheesey and maybe a little salty (but isnt that expected?). New life is in the building very I. Litchfield! read more

We went for an early winter Sunday dinner at Sage&Salt in Litchfield Ct and came away totally blown away! From Sue, our perfect server and hostess, who sat us by the fireplace, which someone promptly turned on to warm our backs, to the pub atmosphere everything was great. AND THEN THE FOOD STARTED COMING! WOW! We had two house special cocktails along with two of the best appetizers either of us have ever eaten (sushi grade tuna and sautéed Brussel sprouts.) and big portions. On to awesome onion soup! Then the entrees- Atlantic cod fish and chips and shrimp scampi. Awesome and big portions we took enough for another dinner for both of us! Did I mention the great prices? Well, they were. Great ambiance, great food, great drinks and best of all - fantastic service, thanks Sue. We will be back! read more

Went for Mother's Day brunch. Despite the hefty price tag, the food was of poor quality and there was minimal variety.

The Mother's Day Brunch was phenomenal. Excellent presentation and more importantly everything was delicious. The service was excellent and all the staff were friendly and welcoming. They were extremely organized and the ambiance was lovely! We cannot wait for next year! read more

A really nice addition to the restaurant options in the area and easily the best pub food for some miles. Very friendly waitstaff, and a wide variety of gluten free options. Specialty cocktails are a bit sweet for my liking, but they're not really my thing. Overall, recommended! read more

Had the ahi tuna app- too salty to even eat....and I love salt. Bar keep didn't seem to care that I didn't like it so I took it home. Maybe I'll try to make a pate or something with it but I was disappointed for sure. Not a good experience at all. read more

Great place for drinks and dinner. Appetizers and Happy hour! Friendly staff and customers.

Will we???? continue to be able to get a seat at the BEST happy hour bar in the area, if we give the rave review that it sooooo much deserves????? Well here it is anyway!!!!! An evening at Sage and Salt is such an enjoyable time to share with friends and the entire staff. The menu could NOT offer more reasonably priced and delicious choices!!!! We love everything about being there. The new decor is very sophisticated, and is an extremely comfortable setting. We have gone to other HH in the area but none compare. See you there!!!!

We had a 6:00 reservation, sat at 6, waited about 15 mins for a drink order. Margarita was all sour mix, so ordered wine after. Over 45 mins went by and they hadn't come back after bringing our drinks to ask if we wanted to put in an app or order, we had to call him over. We finally ordered everything together. Was over 1 1/2 hours after being seated that we got our food, after about 45 mins to order and then waiting for the food. My son got grilled cheese and fries. The picture is after he picked up one half, with no fries eaten. There were like 10 little fries. I got shrimp scampi, which was good. Everyone else liked their food enough, thankfully. We ended up not asking about dessert because we had to go ask our waiter for our check and to go containers. Wouldn't have been so bad if they had more waiters. One guy working the whole area, but he still didn't check in to see if we needed anything or to order. read more
