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!!! 😋💝

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.

I cannot say enough good things about this place!!! Every dish was absolutely delicious. Our waitress Jennifer was so kind and attentive. We had the broccoli soufflé, tempura tempeh and eggplant Parmesan. Every single bite got eaten. We’re planning our next meal there already!

If there was ever a time to give 10 stars the time would be now! Chile if you’re not even vegan you still need to try it because I believe the food would most likely have you convinced that it’s the best thing you’ve ever tasted! I cannot count how many times I said wow with every bite! I mean food prepared to perfection!!!! PERFECTION! The chef obviously loves what he does so SHOUT OUT TO HIM! I just wanted a nice dinner before my movie and I mean it was GIVING! Okay don’t walk RUNNNNNNNN! NEOW! And the name Samctuary most definitely fits it’s like a little slice of heaven! God bless this business keep it growing and flowing!!!!!🩷

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 really enjoyed the food . I had the souffle, a po' boy, potato salad, and the lemon cake. Everything was delicious. I was full for hours . Thank goodness everything is gluten-free and vegan, being that I am gluten and dairy intolerant. It was a good feeling knowing that my food was safe and that I would not have any allergic reactions. Our server Noel was a joy. Very friendly.
