    I love what Sanctuary is and what it stands for; Rohini is an inspiration and she has assembled a talented wait staff and who are attentive to your every need. My family had a lovely dinner and look to returning.

    This has a very cool atmosphere. Leans toward Indian flavors. Not my partners favorite but I loved the skirt steak. Flourless chocolate cake was so good!

    We had dinner reservations for 630 pm and were first guest of the evening. The staff were friendly and attentive. The drink menu was limited but they were able to substitute and make something nice. The food was tasty. This is a great place for an after theater stop for empanadas and drinks.

    Really disappointing. Service was terrible. The pisco sour was unlike any I've had before, and not in a good way. Music was too loud. Will be surprised if this place is still open in 6 months.

    This was my hubby and I for a date night. The restaurant was beautiful 😍, the wait staff was accommodating and nice, and the atmosphere was lively but also gave private time for conversation. The entire experience was positive and easy.
