Sage Dining Rooms

This was our first visit to Sage and we were very impressed. We went for dinner and had the 5 course chef pick along with the paired cocktails for me and matched local wines for my boyfriend. The food was sensational and lived up to the reputation of trip advisors number 1 fine dining restaurant in Australia for 2020. My boyfriend doesn’t often comment too much on food but for him to say the food was really good as well is huge! The staff were very friendly, professional and attentive. Special mention to Maddy who was exceptional and took very good care of us. The only point I could make was to remove the butchers paper from the tables as it detracted from the fine dining experience. Other than that it was a wonderful experience and I can highly recommend especially for a date night. The mint garden outside is a beautiful setting for a cheeky drink or two. Definitely add sage to your to visit list, you won’t be disappointed.

Sage provide a brilliant dining experience that can't be faulted. The location and interior are beautiful and a lot of work has been put in to make it a unique experience. Our party got the 5 course degustation but they bring out dishes in-between the menu items which was a very welcome surprise. Every dish is beautifully prepared and all the flavours are masterfully put together. When we went it took about 3 hours to finish the dining experience. Because of all the dishes in-between you hardly noticed but just something to be aware of.

The experience at Sage was nothing short of being absolutely splendid and truly special. It was my wife's birthday and the waitstaff did their very best to make it a truly beautiful and unforgettable experience. Ella, Owen, Bethany and Ainslie were so engaging, ensuring to explain every dish that came our way and went out of their way to provide for our every need. The food was undoubtedly lip-smacking, albeit the portion size being rather small. The crocodile burger as a bar snack the trout were stand out dishes for us. In short, it was a truly beautiful experience and will definitely consider coming back,more so for the fabulous waitstaff. Definitely coming here again

My friends & I had a really lovely evening at Sage last night. We had the degustation & every dish was just exquisite. Customer service here is always on point - the team’s attention to detail is second to none. The wine list is also excellent, which again, the staff are across & are very knowledgeable on pairing with different dishes. Highly recommend - one of Canberra’s best!

We had a wonderful evening at Sage. My partner took me there for my birthday. At the end of the night, I was given a card signed by all the staff and chef. What a lovely touch! The food was as you would expect - top notch and absolutely delicious. We even had a visit from the resident possum whom staff had to escort (nicely!) way from the beer garden. Can't wait to visit again.

We were lucky to get a reservation on the first night lockdown was lifted. A special degustation collab between Peter Harrington + Michael Harrington & James Viles celebrating regional flavours. Loved every morsel. We went with the wine pairing which only added to the experience. With cocktails it came to $249 a head but we figured we'd saved so much money on restaurants during lockdown we were simply making up for lost time. Prompt and friendly service, great atmosphere, great location within the Gorman Arts Centre, and a lovely old building.

Amazing service with a great intro before each dish. The team were friendly and welcoming. The food was fantastic. The only detractor being the heater not working 100% on the night I was there, and the warmer inside was already in use for a function.

I consider Sage somewhere to go for special occasions. The restaurant has a magical outdoor setting at night that is great in the summer months as well as beautifully appointed indoor dining rooms perfect all year round. The staff are all attentive and friendly and provide detailed descriptions of each dish (not everyone appreciates this I have noted over the year). Food presentation is exquisite and every bite a delicious experience. On offer is a three course fixed price or five course dégustation menu. The servings are small but exquisitely presented with unexpected added little morsels interspersed throughout. Hearty eaters might be a little disappointed - lovers of fine dining won’t be.
