Sage Kitchen Menai Bridge — Restaurant in Wales

We wanted to enjoy a nice meal before we headed back home to Canada and came across Sage. It seemed very promising but it ended up one of the best dinners we’ve had in quite some time. It ended up being a very special and memorable experience for us and we’d highly recommend others to add it to theirs as well.

The restaurant is located in a quieter town which we loved immediately after a very busy and full day of activities and people. It’s a very nice and peaceful setting and the food options all sounded delicious and creative. We enjoyed everything we had: it was hot, delicious and good portions. We very much enjoyed the food but it was the service that really made it special and memorable for us so if you go, make sure you go when Jenny is working. I’ve been a server myself and we’ve had our fair share of experiences but she’s the best hostess and server I can recall having in my experience. She was friendly and warm and welcoming, she let us choose our table and she received all of our hundred questions and conversations kindly and hospitably. She was very informed and knowledgeable about everything from the area, the drinks and menu and everything else we threw at her. She has a keen and perceptive ability to read a table and what someone might need and when (ie she found the perfect balance of when to check on us, when not to and even sensed that we might want more sauce for one of our dishes!!! AMAZING!) and is absolutely skilled and talented in an industry that needs more people of her insight and caliber. We absolutely think she’s the best in her field and she’ll make any dinner out special and memorable and everything you want a meal out to be.

Sage is VERY much worth the visit! But try and go when Jenny is working. She’s a...

Clearly I'm in the minority with this review. This is obviously a well liked restaurant. On this occasion it failed to impress. I went for the rabbit cassoulet to start. Don't know what I expected. Not much substance. The flavour was nice. Served with a very small slice of bread which was not enough to mop up the sauce. Not a great idea for a starter, especially for £10. I chose pork fillet for main. 2 small pieces of pork and a piece of crackling. 1 brawn crocket potato. Bowl of veg on the side. I was offered more veg if I needed it and I could see why. The meat was ok, nothing I could complain about but the portion size was very small. I didn't take up the option to fill up on veg. At £26, possibly the most overpriced plate of food I've eaten. Wife ordered fillet steak rare. Looked very nice however it was raw inside. Pointed this out and was asked if she wanted it cooked a bit more. If you are going to charge top dollar everything has to be very good and it wasn't. My dishes in particular were overpriced. I don't think I've ever eaten 2 courses in a restaurant and left hungry. A very...

This is a beautiful, cosy restaurant, loved the intimate atmosphere and open kitchen. Tastefully decorated. Only criticism would be portion size to cost and value, the quality is there but quantity no so much. 3 small scallops for £10 is expensive, if they were really big maybe arguable however small. The linguine was beautiful in taste but two muscles is a poor portion and again very small, I have had much better quality for less. £26 again for amount of seafood in the dish is excessive. One last negative was croquette needed more seasoning, a little bland. Positives food was served with minimal wait time and lovely friendly service staff, hot, fresh and seasonal produce. I love eating out a will pay over and above for food, but I’ve ate at Michelin restaurants with larger portions for less cost. However the chef has talent and we did enjoy the...
