    Incredible restaurant. The food was delicious and reasonably priced We tried the rabbit stew, duck and chicken. Each was flavorful and beautifully prepared. The homemade chocolate candy is not to be missed. Hard to believe it is sugar-free. We will be back.

    The food was exceptional, faster than expected and completely unprocessed - all natural and delicious. Trying to eat out without seed oils is difficult, Sapien Kitchen makes it easy. We have found a new favorite place. Don't forget to BYO wine, beer, or whatever alcohol you might want. Cheers!

    I am so glad and grateful I found this place. What a joy! The food was absolutely delicious. The stuffed mushrooms, duck, and chocolate crème brûlée were to die for. I have been Paleo for the last five years, and one of the things I’ve missed most is eating out at great restaurants and not worrying about ingredients, or whether or not they could modify something. The food at Sapien is so good, you wouldn’t know you were eating Paleo! For those who don’t follow that particular diet, I still say come and try and be delighted!! I cannot wait to visit again!

    I am not sure how we stumbled on to this place, but the atmosphere was perfect!!! The food was amazing!!! And the service was outstanding, I felt like part of the family and they were excited to have us there. The waitress was on top of it and went out of her way to make sure we were taken care of, she was a delight and the owners were great they personally went to check on there customers, and knew quiet a bit by name. . I cant wait to go back.

    Chef Aurore keeps hitting out of the park! Had a great time and loved the food! She made a Bouillabaisse that was perfect! Great seafood and the broth we soaked up with whatever we could! The escargot was shelled and bathe is a buttery sauce. The bone in filet was a hit as well! We all had an absolute great time and look forward to the next!

    We tried Sapien's because of the many gluten-free items on the menu. Service was excellent. Our server explained in detail the daily specials, and I always appreciate when our water glasses get refilled without needing to ask. The food was hit & miss. My lamb shank was quite dry - somewhat difficult to even cut the meat off the bone. (Most restaurants offer lamb shanks where the meat is tender and literally falls off the bone.) The desserts were not good. The creme brulee tasted more like chocolate mousse, with none of the "burnt" top normally found on creme brulee. The apple crumble was basically chopped up apple in an overly sweet sauce, with no pieces of "crumble".
