Fine dining and fine food. Haven't had a dish yet that wasn't superb. Great place if you're looking for a nice night out at a fancy restaurant.

Great concept and idea. Good stuff on the menu too. I recommend the crab cake cappers and the seafood-cheesecake; however, the food was barely lukewarm. We had to send it back. The lamb burger was delicious! I want to try this place again, but they need to fix the oven.

Great menu with original dishes. Warm atmosphere, attentive service. The seafood cheese cake app is a must, and the pork chop was cooked to perfection. A great place for business lunches that will impress. Fine dining at its best, and meals that put Cotton in the rear view mirror.

Another find on Yelp. Tried this place for lunch while visiting Monroe because of the positives on Yelp and was not disappointed. Slightly higher prices than some of the other restaurants in the area but more than made up for that with great food and extremely good service.

I had lunch here and the food is very good. The prices are very good for the quality of place The Sage is as an establishment. The service is very good and this place is great for a first date or business lunch/dinner.

The very best in Monroe. Never had a bad meal. Service is terrific. The smoked salmon appetizer and the Caesar salad with oysters started what proved to be another special meal.

My husband recently took me to Sage for my birthday and I have to say it was the best dining experience I've ever had. EVER. We always start with the ahi app. Next time we will have to order 2 because my husband said it's so good he does not want to have to share. The oysters on the half shell were so fresh. The star of the meal however was the sea bass! It was cooked perfectly and was the most delicious thing I've ever tasted! Our waiter, Cameron I think was his name, was great. He made sure we had exactly what we wanted, was very knowledgable about the menu, and helpful with suggestions. Chef Mark even came out to our table several times to see how we enjoying our dishes, and presented me with a strawberry sorbet as my birthday dessert. I simply can not wait to make another trip to Monroe just to go there again!

Had dinner last night, I had Sea Bass, one of the best I have had, tender, veggies well cooked, served with crab cakes. Salmon was also very good. Had dinner last night, I had Sea Bass, one of the best I have had, tender, veggies well cooked, served with crab cakes. Salmon was also very good.

This is fine dining in North Louisiana. This place and its counterpart (Cotton) are 2 of the best places I've eaten the past 2 years living in this area. But make sure to come with a fat wallet, fine dining costs a pretty penny. Definitely recommend the sea bass, I splurged even though it was expensive and it was so worth it. I kept wondering how on earth they cook fish to taste so good. The oyster salad was really good too and when we mentioned we were sharing it, our waitress did the honors of splitting it for us in 2 bowls! The shrimp and grits tasted great too!! Now if you are wondering how this place is different/better than Cotton - it is different but I'd saw equal to Cotton in deliciousness. The menu is different with different options (although coincidentally they have many of the same things on both menus). However, they both were equal in tastiness. I think Cotton has a better bar area, better appetizers, and better atmosphere though. Sage is more casual and you don't need to be dressed as nice, the staff were more on-top of things (in my opinion), and it was more private. Cotton you go to be seen and have a social outing or event, Sage is where you go to have a family meal or a date. If that makes sense. If not, check them both out and see for yourself! So good either way, you can't go wrong.

Came here Friday night and sat in the bar area. Excellent service, exceptional drinks, and the food was outstanding. Other finer dining restaurants in this area (cotton and nonna) can't compete with this place. Our server was very cordial and his suggestions were extraordinary. Definitely worth the price and we will definitely be back!

I asked several locals what they thought of various restaurants in the area and without fail, every lady I mentioned Sage to instantly swooned. This was obviously the place to go in Monroe. The dining options are vast with a fine dining room, a warm dark lounge with ample bar seating and tables (and a few TVs) and a covered patio. I was dining solo on a business trip so I opted for the bar. The bartender Kim and the GM Caleb were a blast to chat with. Caleb has been in the restaurant business for years be it in the kitchen to management. I was impressed with the wine selection but played it safe with a malbec. For dinner a I ordered the Ginger Poached Shrimp and had no regrets. The dish came out beautiful and tasted as wonderful as it looked. The large shrimp were neatly placed on small bit of grits, covered in mango cherry drop tomato salsa and smoked Harissa jelly. I am not a fan of grits but theirs was excellent. They use bacon, salt and pepper in the grits and the consistency was great. The shrimp were delicious and the flavors of mango and ginger complimented the dish perfectly. There are two places I adored in Monroe and this is definitely one of them.

Wow, this restaurant is amazing. I had a fabulous meal last night, the filet, while my colleagues ordered the duck and sea bass. It was very difficult to decide what to order as everything on the menu sounded wonderful. Great wine list and service as well. Definitely a must visit if you're ever in Monroe.

Absolutely top-notch cuisine & atmosphere! The only 'Paleo-Friendly' menu options we've seen in Louisiana. We are San Diego CrossFitters visiting family in N. LA, so we were completely blown away when we saw GM/Exec Chef Mark Smith's Paleo menu. So many amazing appetizer options that it was hard to settle on just one! Chose the wraps, which consisted of 5 skewers of bacon-wrapped fillet with jalapeño and cheese filling! (read: "Awesome!"). Had the macadamia encrusted salmon fillet over fennel salad (by Mark's recommendation) and my other half chose the bayou burger - grass-feed beef burger smothered in crawfish fondue. Mark was happy to drop the brioche bun and serve it over pan-wilted iceburg lettuce. The little one enjoyed the chicken & faro soup and the kid's serving of mac & cheese (which was both huge & delectable!) Atmosphere: The hostess & wait-staff were very personable & extremely laid back, and had no problems seating us - (even though we were still dressed in very casual t-shirts & shorts after a day out on the town). Chef Mark was very personable & happy to talk paleo with us for a large part of the evening - making several special recommendations & paleo modifications to our meals. It was truly a unique dining experience! Totally kid-friendly venue, too! They maintain a large selection of micro-brews on tap (though their tap cooler was broken during our visit :-( They did have a few craft beer options by the bottle. I would easily rate Restaurant Sage above 'Cotton' for an upscale dining experience in Monroe, due to the friendly staff and the almost overwhelming number of locally produced farm-to-table & quality ingredient offerings on the menu. You cannot go wrong with Sage!

In all my years of searching for a perfect meal, I had only found one restaurant that literary dazzled my all my senses from the first bite to the very last. That restaurant was Frontera Grill in Chicago. Tonight, I am adding Chef Chris McKnight & Restaurant Sage to stand with Chef Rick Bayless on that list. As soon as I took a bite of the Sage Wraps (bacon wrapped beef tenderloin w/ jalapeño slice & Creole cream cheese), I knew I this was going to be a, at minimum, a good meal. I really had NO idea how good this was about to get. Since I'm a sucker for shrimp and grits, I placed my order and fought the urge to order a side of duck fat fried fries. ("way too many carbs" -I kept telling myself). But, the bartender/server, Heather (bless her heart), brought me out a small sample of these fries and I was floored! The flavor and crispiness of these fries were truly a culinary masterpiece! In all honesty, these duck fat fries were better than the truffle oil French fries I had at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood. And those were amazingly good! So, now the shrimp & grits... Last time I had S&G, was at the House of Blues in Houston. Chef Chris' version of shrimp and grits made those from the HOB look and taste like store bought mac & cheese. And not even the good, Kraft mac & cheese. First off, the serving is not small and neither is the flavor! The shrimp were cooked perfectly. With every bite, I could taste the freshness of the cherry tomatoes and the Andouille sausage was absolutely a thing of beauty. Did I mention these were sweet corn bacon grits? Yeah, Chef Chris has permanently seared this dining experience into my brain. Thank you for that. And thank you for sharing your secret with me on how to make the perfect duck fat fries. It was my pleasure to meet you and I'm coming back to try that pork shank I saw you bring out to the outside table. And this time, I'm bringing friends! ~Manny

Everything about this place is great. I was researching on Yelp a good place to stop for lunch on our way to Florida from Dallas. For starters they are only open for lunch until 2. We got a late start leaving Dallas and called ahead to see if they would wait for us (we didn't arrive until almost 3) and they happily waited for arrival. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. The food was outstanding as well. Some of our favorites were of course the chargrilled oysters which are very close to Acme and Drago's in New Orleans. I thought they had too much lemon but that's what my mom loved about them. The appetizer wraps were very good. The most amazing salad bar I've ever seen. Everything was fresh with a ton of options. We pretty much had everything on the menu. The only thing that was somewhat disappointing was the pulled pork PoBoy. An absolute must if you're in the area!

I travel around the world and eat at all the best restaurants. SAGE is WORLD-CLASS. If you are in Monroe --- GO!

The most expensive pork sandwich I ever had, unless you count my wife as a pork sandwich, and she is not a sandwich.

Awesome place. Romantic evening dining. Awesome oysters. Great waiter. The lemon drop martini is absolutely wonderful

Prob one of the nicest places in Monroe, and I am pretty sure the best shrimp and grits I have ever had.... My list of places to eat in Monroe is dwindling, and this place I always go back to.
(4)TASTY T.
This place is a gem in a little city that does not have too much in regards to good eats. One bonus is that the bar staff is bar non one of the better bar staffs I've seen in a long time. On to the food. the BBQ oysters are quite good. The steaks here are actually hearty and good. I would recomend requesting the steaks to be grilled outside by their girll master. The 3 times I've been there I have had him wood grill my steaks twice and he gets the heat just perfect. A nice escape from Monroe.

The lamb chops were perfectly seared ! And the friand with mushroom sauce was a delicious side to compliment the lamb

Americans know how to cook. This country has hidden gems in some of the most unlikely places. Case in point: Monroe, Louisiana. Among the top ranks of Monroe's culinary treasures, Sage is a dining experience that has never disappointed. I've been coming here for several months and have visited the restaurant at least four times. It's easily my local favorite. The staff are young, good looking, professional, and friendly. The wine and spirits selection is excellent. The ambiance is warm, whether in the bar or the dining room. The food is, well, it has to be tasted to be properly appreciated. Chef Cory Bahr has crafted a meat- and fish-centric menu that really appeals. Starters like skewered bacon-wrapped filet mignon with jalapeno and aged white cheddar in a honey glaze (my favorite), fried oysters on a bed of fresh slaw, creole shrimp with couscous, and an awesome asian-fused tuna tartar, all compliment main courses that run the gamut from red fish and seabass to steaks (strip, filet, etc). The flavors are bold, delicious. If you're ever in the neighborhood, I highly recommend this little out-of-the-way slice of foodie heaven.

The best restaraunt in the area. Excellent food. We eat there frequently and have only had a problem with the food once. They apologized and corrected the problem immediately. Grilled oysters and Sage wraps ae their premier appetizers. I take out of town business clients there and they are always impressed that this area has a restaraunt of this quality.
(5)Terance F.
These other reviewers were wrong...this was a terrible dining experience for both of us! Service was slow and waiter never came back. Had to get my own refills of tea. Several dishes were inedible. after an amazingly good dining experience at Cotton last night, this was a terrific disappointment. i doubt this place will be in business by the time I come back to Monroe on business next year. good riddance.
(1)Jeff C.
The food is awesome and this is the classiest place in Monroe that I know of. It's pricey but impressive. I spent $90 for me and a friend. The filet wrapped in bacon as an appetizer is tops.
(4)Glenn W.
If you are looking for upscale, fine dining in the Monroe area, look no further than Sage. My wife and I came here recently for our anniversary and we loved it. Very sophisticated atmosphere and excellent service. The food was outstanding. We had the wraps for an appetizer which were awesome. I had the filet mignon and my wife had the redfish. My filet was cooked perfectly and very tender and flavorful, and her redfish was delicious and very flavorful as well. We finished it off with blackberry bread pudding, which was terrific. This is a great place to come for a special occasion like an anniversary or birthday, since the prices are higher than your typical Outback Steakhouse, but very much worth every penny. You won't find many places like this in a small town like Monroe. We'll definitely be back.
(5)Stacey W.
MMMMMMMMMMMMM. Upscale, fine dining. Great atmosphere and location. Delicious food. Do yourself a favour and order the Tuna Tower for an appetizer. I dream about that thing. Sea bass was delicious. Redfish and steak good too.
(5)Jennifer H.
Obviously the steaks are great, however it lacks the creativity and mastery that a chef would bring. (for those wondering the owner owns a cattle farm) Everything I've had at Sage has been great up until recently. The one time I had the wood grilled oysters they were very gritty and when I ordered salmon it was undercooked. All-in-all I have had more good experiences then bad experiences at Sage. It is a bit pricey for the quality. That said, the food quality has decreased since they opened. I would still recommend this place if you are in Monroe. There aren't many other places that have quality food.
(3)Natasha B.
This latest addition to the Monroe restaurant scene is awesome. It's modern and chic with excellent food. The seafood and steaks are extremely good. You can't go wrong with this place. It's one of those restaurants that you will find in your major metropolis.
(5)John H.
Very good restaurant, excellent food, very friendly and helpful staff, but also quite pricey. It is kinda off of the beaten path which can be good.
