Opened in 2006, the first thing you'll experience at Wild Sage American Bistro is the rich earth tones and classic architectural details that make our bistro both relaxing and refined. Walls of windows saturate our interior space with abundant natural light during the day and provide an intimate atmosphere at night. You'll find our three dining areas allow for conversations to flow comfortably yet privately for a wonderful dining experience.
We have designed a menu that allows us to be creative on a daily basis, and work within the limits of what is in season and available. We are always looking for unique ingredients to highlight. Local beef, regional fresh fish, local gardens, heirloom vegetables fruits and tomatoes. We describe our style as “Regionally Sourced Northwest Cuisine”. It just makes sense using local ingredients at the peak of their quality and freshness.

    Repeat customer always a good great place for a family celebration or special night out with loved ones, or just want a good dinner. Sitting at the bar is fun have a drink bartenders always have ear plus have a appetizer or dinner singles are not treated as single diner. Almost just like family. As for single ladies comfortable and safe.

    Wild Sage is my absolute favorite restaurant in Spokane. Both my husband and I are gluten (wheat) sensitive and it is SO awesome to be able to enjoy delicious food that has been beautifully prepared. I always take a photo of my plate because the food is presented so beautifully. It is a treat to eat at Wild Sage!

    It was a memorable 75th birthday dinner with three generations of family. I can't say enough obout the food...the creativity, the ingredients, the presentation. That goes for the starters and desserts as well as the entrees. None of us were disappointed with anything. Our entree choices included halibut, filet mignon, a steelhead trout special, spring herb chicken, and the Bucket List Burger. The craft cocktail list is impressive, and as creative as the menu. We had a bit of a wait until the dawdling people at our table-to-be decided to leave but the host made sure we could order a drink if we wanted one. The table service was attentive but not overly so. The server was knowledgeable about the menu. Timing was very good. It had been quite some time since our last visit to Wild Sage but it won't be that long in the future, I'm sure.

    Overrated. Appetizers. The taquios ......I almost ordered these, but the table next to us did and the cumin almost knocked me over. Pork belly: these are dry seasoned with cinnamon. This was unnecessary. Also, very salty, but not unbearable. Halibut cakes: tasty but the dill topping is overbearing. Cheeseburger should have been medium, and was barely medium rare. Barely. We overstayed our welcome, and were asked to move to the bar. We were offered a free drink. We were then presented a bill after our free drink. We explained that we were offered a free drink by the manager /owner and this was honored....but I mean.......sheesh!!! I would recommend, but with some caveats. Fantastic bartender!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Wild Sage is such a fabulous dining experience! I have never been disappointed. From outstanding and unique cocktails, fresh salads, culinary delight entrees and fabulous desserts - it’s all so delicious. Six of us had dinner at Wild Sage before seeing Hamilton and were all still raving the next day. The wait staff is friendly and attentive. They can accommodate dietary needs as well. Their gluten free dinner “puffs” are to die for. Wild Sage is always my choice for a special dinner when in Spokane.

    We were seated right next to the bar. Not a great experience. Always heard bartender shaking ice and cocktails. Our reservation was made several weeks prior. Save those seats for walk-Ins, not people who were excited to engage in conversation and good food!

    A gem of a restaurant. I had the chef featured Steelhead with Morels and Miso Ramp butter. Fish was cooked to perfection and paired well with chef suggested wine. Every bite was heavenly from the appetizers to dessert. Do yourself a favor and visit Wild Sage Bistro.

    This was our first time at Wild Sage and it was remarkable. We look forward to going back soon. Both my husband and I need to eat gluten free and nearly the entire menu (and all the desserts) are gluten free. It is wonderful having such a lovely place with great service, delicious food and an enjoyable atmosphere in downtown Spokane.

    This was an amazing experience, the service from the start was friendly and welcoming. The meal was full of surprises, the light popovers instead of bread was a pleasant surprise. I ordered the halibut and it was cooked perfectly, it’s hard to make halibut exciting but they did with all that came with it, every item the rice, the sauce, the vegetables were interesting and delicious! But the best was to come! 4 glasses of port with thin wafers of delicious chocolate to go with each port! Amazing! Thank you so much for a delicious evening.

    Enjoyed a pleasant meal with an excellent bottle of wine. The black Cod was outstanding with the wild Morels. Excellent field salad with explosions of taste from basil and peas. Had the hand made ice cream and it was so flavorful. One of the best meals I've ever had and the cost was more than reasonable. I've paid more for less at many restaurants. Can't wait to return.

    Amazing time and dinner! Heard tons of great things from friends but never made it in. Had a date night the other night and had a great experience! Our server was amazing. Sadly don’t remember her name off hand but she knew the subtle technique of being there exactly when I needed something and never around when I didn’t. Few have that down and when ever I get lucky enough to have a server like that I will let everyone know and definitely come back. They were even able to get me a dish that wasn’t on their current rotation of entrees. That in itself was a huge win with me. Because that is exactly the choice I wanted and one of the main reasons we went there.

    My husband and I went to Wild Sage for dinner to celebrate our wedding Anniversary after catching a matinee showing of Hamilton at the First Interstate Center for the Arts. I started with a blueberry basil drop, which was all kinds of yummy and gave me a nice little buzz. For our appetizer course we split a romaine salad and seasonal Thai carrot soup, both equally delectable. I had the Scallop plate from the special menu while my hubby ordered the pork tenderloin for our main course, which were also scrumptious. We decided to splurge and each order a dessert item. Hubs had the seasonal clementine orange pound cake while I opted for the crème brûlée with berry compote. The brûlée was magnificent, while we both found the pound cake to be a little on the dry side with kind of a grainy texture that was somewhat off-putting. Needless to say, we both left feeling full and likely to recommend this little gem to anyone considering a visit!

    This place is a great little gem in Spokane. I love their food here, the potato taquitos are a must for an appetizer. It would be nice if they could get some good orange bitters to make a proper Manhattan, other than that their drinks are very good.
