Sage Bistro is my families and my go to French restaurant. We have been going for years and the food is consistently good. We have even thrown family parties here. The French onion soup is one of the best I have had. Their salads are fresh. My favorite dish is the mussels, but their duck is delicious and so is their boullabaise. I haven't had anything here that I did not like. The restaurant is located in Woodbury Shopping Center. There's ample parking in the parking lot, although it can get a little hectic there. The restaurant is pretty and starts with their bar. The service is usually really good and the waiters are friendly and knowledgeable. I went last week with my friend and we both ordered and enjoyed the mussels. Can't wait to go back soon read more

Server was happy one moment than seemed like she couldn't be bothered the next. Prices were vey high for food that was mildly mediocre at best. French onion soup - from the bread to the soup everything was lacking 3/10 Truffle burrata 8/10 Prosciutto arugula flatbread 7/10 read more

Went for lunch today and didn't know what to expect. I'm not sure if French food is just not my thing or if the food itself was just "ok". I got something that I considered to be classic French, the croque monsieur. The sandwich was grilled ham, Gruyère cheese and bechamel on top. I liked whatever bread they used, the ham because it was grilled before they put it in the sandwich and the bechamel on top. I did not like the thick slices of cheese inside. There was definitely too much and it was sliced too thick, it also was not warm enough so the cheese was not melty. I've never had anything like this before so maybe it was supposed to be like that but for me, the texture was like biting into a thin piece of cardboard in the middle of the sandwich and the amount of it made the flavor a bit too much. It came with fries which were very good. I also tasted a crepe that had shrimp, asparagus and a creamy sauce. Again, it just didn't wow me. If I ever go back, I'd try the eggs Benedict and maybe have a look at the dessert menu for something chocolate but I'm not rushing to get back there. read more

I've been a customer for almost 20 years, ordered baby lamb chops, exactly the title they were for a baby $48, barely a even a bite, I know food costs are up but don't take it out on your customers. Shame...inflated prices have gone overboard here, sorry to see you go, I'm done here read more

Went to dinner tonight. I will say the fondue was very good . Wine I ordered smelled like turpentine. The main courses were salty and dry. Topped off by burnt coffee and I airy pudding they tried to pass off as mousse. Oh the server if you could find him was ok at best, Got more attention from the busser. Honestly never again read more

Food was nice and service very pleasant. I had lobster bisque soup and my company ordered pappardelle with meat. Cozy nice place to eat dinner or have a glass of wine! Will come back again:) Thank you read more

Exceptional choice for lunch today! Every expectation of a great meal and another choice for fine dining in the area has been met!! First - A shout out to Luis, our server, for the wonderful service! Now to the food, Our Sage House salad was delicious - all fresh and tasty ingredients! For entrees, I thoroughly enjoyed the super tasty and fresh Frutti De Mer, In a delicious red sauce, this was a best ever, chunks of sole filet, mussels, the tenderest Calamari, and clams. Simply delicious, and with a basket of bread to help soak up all that delicious sauce!!! My other half enjoyed the Cacio y Pepi - Super tasty, another great choice! For dessert, Profiteroles - a puff pastry with ice cream in the middle, served with chocolate sauce and fresh berries. Another great choice paired with a cup of hot, black coffee. A great choice for lunch or dinner and Sage also has Sunday brunch. read more

Absolutely delicious!! The pasta with scallops and shrimp was to die for! Spicy salmon cucumber boats were amazing. Can't wait to go back.

We had mothers day lunch here and it was wonderful. Nice wine list too. Everyone enjoyed their entrees. Yummy desserts and welcoming service too. read more

I was invited to a family party held at Sage Bistro recently and it was my first time visiting but it definitely won't be the last! It looks small when you first walk in but the back really opens up and I like when restaurants have booth seating. The service was phenomenal, we were a large private party and everyone's drinks were always filled, both alcoholic and non. I really enjoyed my appetizer and dessert, my entrée was just okay but it was, again, a large event so I'm sure that's part of why. The personalized menus for our party weren't clear on what came on the steak and ultimately I think I would've enjoyed another dish better but that's no fault of the bistro. Can't wait to come back here for date night to try some French cuisine! read more

Great little local place. Went for dinner for 4 well spaced out tables. Attentive waitstaff. They did not rush us. Halibut special was cocked and seasoned just right. Steak and fries were a hit for those who had that. Desert menu has options for those who are not eating sugar. A fruit plate or cheese plate. Great choices. Something for everyone . read more

This is just an update of my previous reviews. We still love it. At 6:00 PM on Saturday night, when we arrived, there were still several tables available, but by 7:30, it was full. My appetizer was just a straightforward cold shrimp cocktail, except (pardon the oxymoron) the four shrimp were very large. My wife and friend split the shrimp avocado tower (salad) appetizer. It looks small (see photo), but it was enough for two and they enjoyed it. This time, my entree was the filleted branzino, tonight served with green beans, almonds, and onions (see photo). The two pieces were thick and thin, well cooked, but juicy in a delicious sauce. Again, I love their crispy crusted French baguette with butter plate. read more

Food was incredible. The Camembert fondue was incredible and the steak frites was amazing. I really enjoyed crepes suzette even though it isn't particularly something I would order for dessert.The atmosphere in there was amazing. Such a pretty restaurant. The service was great but I also went when they weren't busy. The price is very consistent with the other restaurants in the area. read more

Mother's Day Brunch went well. We were all happy with our orders, and the prices were reasonable. I would go back.

Tried out Sage Bistro during restaurant week. We came in on a rainy Sunday evening and while we had a reservation, they had plenty of open tables. Ambiance and decor in the restaurant is very nice with the tables set back behind the bar. We did order from the Pre-fix menu, but started by sharing the zucchini pancakes (not on the pre-fix menu) which were really good. I then had the Lobster bisque, which was OK but definitely needed more lobster and my husband had the grilled chicken flatbread- which was large enough to take some home with us. For main courses I had the moules frites- the mussels had plenty of sauce and were good but the fries weren't thin and crispy like I am used too, they were thick frozen fries. My husband had the linguini and clams which was also O. We both finished with the pumpkin bread pudding which was really good. Glad we tried someplace new, especially with the option of the restaurant week menu. read more

The prices on the website are way out of date. Nice place, good service. Shrimp bisque and coffee very good. Want to be able to give four stars, but the chicken was dry, and the bread hard. Don't think I'll be back...and c'mon, $14 for a Bellini? read more

It's pretty spacious inside but you wouldn't see that from outside. Staff were very friendly and welcoming! Had their flavorful french onion soup which was really good, no wonder it's popular! For our entrees we had the pecan chicken which was really good, pecan breading was a great touch and came with sweet potatoes, however I don't remember seeing that on the menu and thought it came with mashed potatoes. My husband had the rack of lamb which he said the meat melted off the bones and wants to come back for this next time. Our friends had the steak with pepper sauce which was also flavored well, the sauce was divine, French onion pork chop which tasted like French onion and was so pretty plated and the grilled chicken salad. We ended with a warm apple pie and raspberry compote which I didn't think I'd like because I'm not a fan of raspberry but was very good! Better than the apple pie! read more

A great birthday dinner at Sage!! Food, ambience and service were outstanding! We had the octopus with hummus (so good), the filet mignon tacos (omg) and mussels in white wine, garlic (finger licking broth) for appetizers. Our main was the rack of lamb which was so tender, it was like butter! Dessert with a surprise candle was crepe Suzette along with a cappuccino. The night was terrific! read more

I was looking for a French restaurant near the Nassau Suffolk border and I found Sage Bistro here on Yelp. I was very impressed by the ambiance, waitstaff, and of course the food! The Spinach/Artichoke Dip appetizer was kept warm by a flame underneath the bowl, and toasted pita were provided for dipping. The warm slices of crunchy-crusted bread, served with butter, were also excellent platforms for the dip. I ordered the Filet Mignon Salad (asked for no cheese) and had 3 delicious, tender medallions of steak, on a bed of greens, apples, walnuts and more. For dessert I had an apple tart with Hazelnut ice cream and an espresso. It was an excellent meal, and moderately inexpensive for a Saturday lunch. Will definitely return! read more

Food: 3 stars Service: 4 stars Environment: 3 stars Cleanness: 3 stars COVIDproof: 4 stars Menu with variety of choices, mix with American burgers and lobster rolls to French style of soups and mussels and seafoods; if you're new with French dishes you could still easily make selections no sweat :) Maybe it was during lunch time, the beef bourguignon wasn't on the menu; though they're willing to make it for me. I was flattered they went extra mill for their customer and silently gave them additional star on their service. The dish was taking extra time to make but all is understandable. However the portion did have room to improve. Seafood pasta was full flavored and the owner was very generous on the shrimps clams and mussels. Slightly spicy noted. Outdoor seating only, and staffs all wearing masks the whole time; Restaurant is doing its best to follow the guidelines. I am fully supporting that! read more

Nice place but the salad was so soggy and the chicken was undercooked . The French onion soup was very good though .

Man I've had this place bookmarked forever and I can finally say I got here! Service at lunch was superior and can only imagine what it's like at dinner. The restaurant is quaint and rather quiet at lunch but that's alright with me. I personally had the burger just because I thought it'd be tasty with some gruyere on it and damn was I right. The side of fries and salad were also phenomenal. Definitely did not finish anything on my plate and had my fella been with me he would've probably shook his head at me and told me that my eyes are bigger than my stomach. I will be back... TRUST me! read more

Came here with a large party of 8 on Friday night. We asked for outdoor seating as someone in the party is immunocompromised and they made sure we were super warm with all of the heating lamps! The staff were super kind and funny to talk to, also super attentive. I ordered the steak frites rare and it came out beautifully red! It was sooooo tasty every single bite felt like a dream. Others at the table ordered scallops in rissoto, linguine and clam sauce as well as the steak frites. Everyone loved what they ordered and thought every bite was to die for. We shared desserts such as the chocolate mousse I have pictured. It was absolutely delicious. It was my first time here and I really enjoyed my time and would absolutely come back again! read more

if I could give zero stars I would. Ordered a steak medium. first time it came out the steak was not cooked at all inside. I asked for them to add some fire to it to make it medium. the waiter takes it back and then brings it out again still completely raw inside and there is little doubt there was nothing done to alleviate the situation. waiter takes it back again (I am trying this entire time to be nice because I know people make mistakes) then comes out and the steak is now burnt. I try to speak to the owner to tell him what's going on and the first thing out of his mouth (while I am still speaking in a nice manner) is WELL YOURE NOT GETTING ANOTHER STEAK. he was EXTREMELY rude, I did say don't speak to me in that manner. he said then order something else off the menu and by this time I was very aggregated at being spoken to in that way. he then proceeds to follow me back to my table to use my knife to "inspect" the steak. he states it wasn't burnt while completely neglecting to acknowledge the black charred crust. I said to take it off the bill, he replied you already ate it (i had one bite the third time it came out to confirm the burnt status of the charred piece of meat in front of me). he then proceeded to grab away the plate as I said I want nothing else and to simply take it off of the bill. I then left and had to walk up and down the outside of the shopping center to cool down after being spoken to and treated in such a repulsive and reprehensible manner. in addition, I had been there several times in the past and the people with me, who were fairly embarrassed by situation, are there very often and are known people by the entire staff and owner. I am now left hangry and agitated. the one bite of potato I was able to have with the charred bite of blackened meat was good. read more

I mean, I love everything this group does. I got the filet mignon sliders and I can't say enough. Ample portion and mouth wateringly delicious. Service was superb. Overall a great experience. Do it for a romantic evening, a lunch with some flair, or just because you love French food. I'll be back. read more

Food was very good. We enjoyed the following apps: eggplant meatballs (8/10), shrimp (9/10). For an entree I chose the steak medallion salad and it was very tasty, steak was cooked as expected. The service is the reason for -1 star. The host seemed annoyed with us the whole time. Server never refreshed drinks. read more

Excellent French onion soup. Exceptional duck l'orange. Good wine selection. Courteous service staff.

Came here for date night during restaurant week to finally try this place. Delicious food and great service! Was a perfect date night. My hubs also loved his food and drink. read more

We were a table of 8 and there was a very large bug in my food. I almost ate it. Absolutely nauseating. My friend got sick but the owner never apologized and, in fact, mocked us over the size of the bug. The kitchen must be absolutely filthy for them to find this funny. The bug was gross but the customer service was worse!! They should be ashamed. read more

Worst dinner in my life! We're a party of 8, had appetizers and drinks, then the chicken pollard comes out with a huge bug on the lettuce. No apologies from the owner or the waiter. We tell them to give us a menu, but they give us the same dish (I think they just freshened it up), then when we say no, they act like we're being too fussy. We had desserts and when the bill comes, nothing off. They finally remove one dinner. Worst yet, the owner makes fun of us over the size of the bug, like it's no big deal. This place is a health hazard!!! read more

Food and service excellent but ordered boeuf borguignon that had no mushrooms in it. That's odd. And had a mojito that was served in the wrong type of glass making it smaller than normal (at other places). At their prices cocktail should have been served in the correct glass. Place really pricey (ex. ice cream scoop-sized side of mashed potatoes was $11) so be prepared to spend. read more

I felt Sunday brunch was decent. I came with reservations on a Sunday in February .. the heat was PUMPING it was 4,000 degrees lol my biggest complaint was the service. Our server was kind and attentive BUT he knew absolutely nothing about the wine he was serving. At a French bistro, the wine is a big part of the meal and he just had no clue. We ordered a wine tasting which doesn't list the price , and just says 75? On the menu.... but the server never said which white wine was which ... or explained them or literally anything. My mom ordered a glass afterwards and it was the wrong one. The chicken pillaird was pretty good but very basic .... a chicken salad essentially . My mom liked her salmon but it looked simple as well. I think I'd skip this spot and go to bar frites. read more

Anyone who peeks at my feed knows that I am as regular as bran cereal when it comes to my dining places/choices. Sage Bistro is no exception. I don't live near Woodbury but it's in my territory for work. They have four locations yet I haven't ventured to any other venues despite Anis' prompting. First question when I saddle up to the bar for lunch is "what's the soup of the day?" Never disappointed and always pleasantly surprised at the variation and creativity. Most recently was an Apple & Potato pureé with goat cheese garnish. Amazing. French bistro Vibe right down to the musique and al fresco dining. Can't wait to try their Rockville Center location. read more

Everything was lovely about this dining experience. There's an old school charm to the restaurant (which definitely attracts an older crowd). The ambiance is pleasant and inviting, the food is wonderful, and the cocktails are calm and balanced. The staff is friendly, funny, and welcoming. The prices are reasonable given the high quality of the food. Highly recommend for a low key date night. read more

Mediocre all around. Came here tonight for a surprise that my boyfriend planned for Valentine's Day. When we first walked in we were seated right away as we had a reservations. For an appetizer I ordered a French onion soup which was okay flavor wise. Nothing popped. Then for my entree I had the chicken with the squash purée. It was so so. The chicken was a bit rubbery for my taste. The purée delicious thought very flavorful. Service wasn't the greatest. So many waiters yet they all clung to one area at the restaurant. I asked for an additional drink and nobody ever got it. It wasn't memorable, kinda pricey, and for that I won't be back. read more
