Amazing food and experience

Great Sage has such a nice vibe, and they are outwardly vegan for the animals which I love. I got the BBQ Jackfruit sandwich special which our server highly recommended. It was so good it hit the spot! It’s a bit of a trip for me but I’m definitely coming again.

Large menu

Nice setting. Lots of tables and beautiful outdoor patio.
Some of the items were not available today. I wanted to try the Reuben but they were out of some ingredients. I settled for a Beyond Burger. It was the pretzel bun and my curiosity of the sauce. I frankly didn’t want anything else on the menu. The burger was quite good but the fries were amazing!! I had the monkey smoothie which was not worth 10$ for the size and taste.

Pros: Atmosphere, Large menu

Cons: Out of ingredients , Not so friendly server, Over priced smoothie

Great fine dining all vegan restaurant.

Part of the conscious corner family of businesses this place has an extensive variety of creative global vegan food options on their menu. The food is great tasting. There is also roots market nearby which has whole lot of vegan grocery store items. Went there with a group as part of Naryland vegan restaurant month.

Pros: Casual and classy ambience, Very tasty food. Great desserts as well., Very friendky staff with great service.

Cons: None.

Changed but still good

Maybe like many restaurants, Great Sage has had to change to cope with the pandemic. The menu is smaller, & the offerings tend more towards comfort food now. “Adult Mac & cheese” for example.
Generous portions, friendly staff. Outside seating available.

We got carry-out, and the apple crumb cake, 3-bean chili & harvest wrap were delicious.

We went there again this week. I guess we must have been there at least twelve times over the years. This is THE BEST Vegan restaurant.

Good Variety & Tasty

Vegan versions of standard restaurant items. The French fries were yummy and the salad was too. It’s so nice going to an all vegan restaurant and not having to search the menu for what you can eat. We’ll be going back soon.

Pros: Many items to choose from, Nice and relaxing atmosphere (outdoor seating too, Food arrived hot and fast.

Cons: Make reservations so you don’t have to wait.

Amazing food and selection

Really great selection including desserts and everything was better than I expected. The Mac and cheese was especially surprising. Big portions on everything too, we had so many left overs.

The only criticism was that the corn bread wasn't especially flavorful and was a different style than I expected.

What are you waiting for... go here

Our favorite treat place for dinner. Always happy with what we get – the menu changes seasonally and we try to get something new every time, which is hard, because we don't want to miss out on re-ordering our favorites!

Amazing desserts, apps, everything. They know what they're doing.

A nice place full of friendly vegans and great food, what more could you ask for?

Excellent Sit-Down Option

The food is excellent and keeps up with the seasons! They have an exquisite array of options for whatever mood you’re in. Also, it is well spaced out and in an easy location to access.

Pros: Variety of options, Customer service, Owned by a neighboring grocer (mostly vegan)

Cons: Price

YUM

We had a group of five and all ordered appetizers, entrees, drinks, and dessert. Everything was so delicious and the staff were friendly! Met up with non-vegan friends who enjoyed everything as well!

All vegan, expensive

Nice to have a completely vegan restaurant, though at $20 an entree, it's splurge fare though the vibe is casual. Desserts look amazing but I'm always too stuffed to try them

Pros: Entirely vegan

Cons: Very expensive

Gourmet vegan

It's worth every penny. You can tell they use fresh ingredients.The pierogi quesadilla was listed as an app, but it felt like an entree. The side sauces went so well with the dish too. The presentation of their food was superb, and the overall experience was great. I also loved that they had Valentines Day cookies for sale in the restaurant. I'd eat here every day if I could.
My grandma who is not vegan in the slightest, said the autumn crisp was one of the best dishes she's ever had.
Check out Roots market for more vegan finds and desserts in their refrigerator section .

Pros: Gourmet average sized plates, Sit down upscale dining, Good sides

Cons: I wish they had a larger menu , Pricey $18 for a sandwich

Stupendous!

I can't believe I haven't done a Happy Cow review of my hands-down favorite DMV-area restaurant! It's time to correct that:

Great Sage is absolutely fantastic! Delicious food, inviting atmosphere - just perfect. I just wish it was closer to DC, but it's fun to make it into an outing by including shopping at super vegan-friendly Roots Market right next door.

For years, Great Sage has been our go-to place for birthdays, anniversaries, or just plain fun. Love it!

Pros: 100 Vegan, Delicious food, Wonderful atmosphere

You don't have to ask for alternatives to dairy milk

Lunch was a yummy tempeh Rueben, spinach artichoke dip and the best potato leek soup, which imo was the highlight

Entire vegan menu

Enjoyed lunch on the patio. Service was super-friendly and the food was delicious. Opted for the Ginger Dijon salad with baked tofu. The portion was huge so got to enjoy it again later. Didn’t order dessert but there were plenty of choices. Highly recommend!

Pros: Everything is vegan, Outdoor seating, Lots of parking

My first time ever

I’ve been hearing about this place forever, and we finally met friends here on a Saturday afternoon. I was the only first-timer in our group. Everything on their menu is plant-based, and if you ask me, they have the best carrot cake in the entire state of Maryland

Pros: 100% vegan, Outdoor seating, Attentive and knowledgeable waitstaff

Tres leches not so good

The “tres leches” was not moist at all. It was dry and hard, nothing like a real tres leches. I’ve had vegan tres leches before that were tasty but this was not. It was pretty tho… I was served a hot latte in a glass container which was hard to drink because the glass was hot. Food was okay. I got a stomach ache soon after leaving.

Still outdoor patio/to-go service only. Even short-staffed and super busy the food was delicious and the staff was so friendly and helpful. I've been coming here for over a decade and it's always a wonderful experience!

Cons: Outdoor dining only at the moment
