We went in and was promptly seated. One thing I noticed was that we were a young bunch compared to everyone else there who were eating lunch. We were also the only Asians in the entire restaurant-- minus this one old Asian couple.
Appetizer Choices was Tortilla Soup or Spicy Ahi Spring Rolls. Uhhh... I should've known that in an American place they always mix up "spring rolls" and "egg rolls".
Does that look like SPRING ROLLS to you?! haha... oh wells. I thought I was actually getting spring rolls so I was a TAD bit disappointed when Spicy Ahi EGG ROLLS came out. OH! I can't even say ROLLS cause it's only one roll cut into three pieces. darn false advertisement. But it was good. =)
Entree Choices-- Ahi Burger, Asian BBQ Short Ribs, Chinese Chicken Salad.
Didn't try the Ahi Burger but Stanley said it was good. =)
Tried a piece of the short ribs. It was pretty good but I'm not really a short ribs kind of person but it was flavored nicely.
The Chinese Chicken Salad was fresh but I got so little salad! I'm used to paying $8-$10 and getting a giant mound of salad. But the salad at Sage costs $13 and I only hand a few handfuls of salad. It was really fresh, the tangerines were really sweet! yummay.
Dessert choices-- Lemon Tart or Bread Pudding
I didn't try to Lemon Tart but the 3 who did said it was really lemon-y but in a good way. You could tell they used real lemon to flavor the tart.
The bread pudding I thought was SUPER good. I've tried bread pudding else where and I've never really like it. But I chose to get bread pudding over lemon tart because I just don't like lemon tart. I'm so glad I did! Nice texture and hint of cinnamon. Mark who also tried the bread pudding didn't like it as much because he thought it was too mushy. I think it was his first time with bread pudding. =P
Overall it was a good experience. Price for 5 of us was $80 + tip = $95. Split with 5 people we each paid $19-- which isn't bad for a three course lunch. We left full but not bloated.
