"The entire South is obviously obsessed with meat and animal products, so Sanctuary Bistro, with a rotating all-vegan, gluten-free, and organic menu, is a really welcome addition to the restaurant scene. This is a place where stuff like soy, tofu, and mushrooms mimic the textures, richness, and meatiness of meat and cheese. In other words, you won’t have to sell dishes like jackfruit bourguignon or crispy tofu au poivre too hard to your cousin who only eats chicken tenders. We like Sanctuary best for a weeknight dinner, where we can post up in the dining room at the bar. And since it’s located in a shopping center, there’s always a parking spot." - tess allen

OH M GGGG…WOWWWW…this is what I felt with every item I ordered. Was first time at this place and have heard a lot about it and it was AMAZING…I can’t write anything without CAPS…that means a lot…we ordered sushi, soup, jackfruit steak, beer battered tofu, cheesecake and crème brûlée being just two people Cz everything on menu sounded so good and we licked every plate, it was so DELICIOUS…I would have generally given 3 or 4 stars for poor service but my soul is satisfied that I can’t do that for this even, would rather give it 20 stars for how amazing their food is. Why are they not Michelin yet??? We did some wine tasting and one other item which was amazing. Try sweet Resling wine, we finished the entire bottle. Man, I can’t stop bragging how good this place is. Just one request to make the service better, it took almost an hour for our order to arrive and it was soul teasing, EVERYTHING ELSE WAS FABULOUS. Love they are all vegan so I didn’t had to think what to order. MUST MUST TRY my vegan and non-vegan peeps.

This place is very tasty with great people. My favorite were the fried mushrooms. So tasty! All of the dishes were made with care and intention. The only thing I could say is a con is there may be a bit of a wait for the main entree to come out, but it is well worth the wait! It takes time to make good things. I highly recommend, whether vegan or not.

I have been to Sanctuary Bistro many times many times over the years even though it’s over 30 miles away from my home. It’s probably the best restaurant of my lifetime even though I have been blessed to experience many exquisite restaurants especially in the Southern California area where I lived until 6 years ago. The food is amazing, all vegan, gluten free and very delicious! The atmosphere is delightful and so are the people!!! I simply cannot express how much I love this experience and no, I am in no way profiting from this, except in the sense that I believe this business is making our world a better place!!! 😋💝

This place reminds us that nothing beats a good WFPB meal especially when it’s done right! Our absolute favorite is the “blue cheese” salad and the broccoli soufflé 10/10!

I am struggling to describe how great this restaurant is. I have been a regular customer for the last 3 years and cannot believe that I haven't submitted a review earlier. Everytime I go to Sanctuary Bistro, it is a special occasion, despite being a regular evening dinner. The food is simply stunning. I love that menu is changing often and every time is super delicious! I am truly grateful that such an amazing plant based restaurant exists and team is doing fantastic job! Thank you Sanctuary Bistro!

I was so excited to see some of the vegan options in Charlotte! I certainly experienced great customer service. My server was very helpful and even provided me with a list of all of the vegan options in Charlotte, which I thought was so kind and helpful. I had the mushroom oyster inside of the tortilla bc it was good. I wasn’t crazy about the roasted potatoes, but the strawberry cheesecake was good.

Food was absolutely delicious! Someone paid a lot of attention to flavors and texture, so good!! Jennifer was such a delight; we really felt like “part of the family.”

Excellent restaurant, good menu. Chef Barry and I do not align on taste preferences, but the food is very good. I would go back to try another menu next time I am in Charlotte. Fried mushrooms: 8/10 - much better with the remoulade for me. Did not like the sweet sauce. Batter was good, mushrooms held oil a little more than i’d like. The little potatoes and mushroom bacon served with the fried mushrooms were 10/10 Trumpet Scallops: 9/10 - the base was one of the best things all night. Mushroom texture didn’t mix well with the base for me. Purple ravioli: 11/10 - easily the best all around plate of the night. Pasta texture was strange, but the sundried tomato cheese filling was phenomenal, and the pesto cream was perfectly executed. Oyster mushroom entree: 6/10 - overall didn’t hit for me. Mushrooms were too rich, potato hash seemed undercooked, carrots were superb, sauce was not enjoyable and a bad pair flavor wise. Presentation is never really a factor for me, but having 2 feet of parchment on my plate was a turn off, too.
