Sage Kitchen - Virginia Beach

However, there were some drawbacks to our experience. All three of our orders arrived incomplete, missing the sides we had requested, and we ended up waiting about 30 minutes for our food. At the time we ordered from the host at the entrance, there were only three other guests dining, and no one was ahead of us, which made the long wait puzzling, especially since the kitchen seemed fully staffed. It's always disappointing not to receive a complete meal, particularly when we're hoping to take food to go. Unfortunately, the service felt a bit careless, and there was no apology for the oversight. On the positive side, the café has a spacious atmosphere and plenty of activities to engage in while waiting for your meal. The café area itself is charming, the kitchen produces good food, and the staff is pleasant. To summarize: **Pros:** - Large, inviting space with engaging activities while waiting - Charming café ambiance - Good quality food - Friendly staff **Cons:** - Long wait time for food - Incomplete orders - Meals served in paper dishes instead of plates

The menu is delightful and offers a fresh selection. I really enjoy the cucumber lemonade, especially on a hot sunny day. It was also convenient to have lunch while the kids played on the playground. I highly recommend this spot!

The atmosphere at this restaurant is fantastic, especially with the plant nursery just outside. However, the waiting and ordering system is a bit odd. You place your order at the reception, serve your own water, and then wait for a text to notify you when your food is ready. The internet connection isn't great, and the location feels somewhat remote from the city, so we waited about 10 minutes after being seated for our food to arrive. The food was good, but the drinks from the bar were even better.

I know the cook when he ran the kitchen at the NN site. loves the new location. it is fucked away and not on a super busy road, it is bigger and better! there is also a room for events so that they have a baby shower, birthday party, etc. personal is super friendly. they just forgot to ask about my rewards, and I forgot and had made a big purchase. next time!

Great ambiance but really bad service on 2 separate visits. This last visit we were greeted with a “waiting list to order”… All well and good… we’re all struggling with staffing issues! But after 30min with 2 starving kids I walked back up to the front station to see where we were on this “list” just to be informed that the list was now gone and I can order whenever. I received no call to let me know confirmed by hostess . I wouldn’t write a review if my previous experience wasn’t an absolute hot mess as well. You have a unique product folks… I just wish you could get it together on the service end…
