Best “Fast” Food Ever!
Café Esme owner Daniela Sarbu has opened a second eatery at the base of the KRE Building at 485 Marin. Just like her lovely café, Sage Eats is a slam dunk. It joins the ever-growing group of pizzerias in JC that carve out a successful niche for themselves in a crowded market. At SAGE Eats, that niche is individual Neapolitan style pizzas made to order in under 3 minutes.
At $11 each, these individual pizzas are perfectly sized, delicious, and healthy to boot, thanks to the light yet flavorful dough (hand-pressed daily and perfectly salted), and super-fresh ingredients like home-made mozzarella and vegetables roasted in-house. The red sauce has a terrific tang to it and is applied sparingly, like all toppings. As always, we love the simplicity of a perfectly done classic Margherita, but all the pie choices here are excellent. Two additional favorites are the Soppresata (sweet or spicy) with honey drizzle and the All-White pizza. While we have yet to try it, friends rave about the Mushroom Pizza with a white wine lemon cream, parmesan cheese and parsley atop the roasted mushrooms. Gluten-free pizzas with a cauliflower dough are available too for an extra $3. In addition to the pizzas, Sage Eats sells salads, rice bowls and tiramisu and cannoli for dessert.
Sage Eats is open Monday through Saturday from 11am to 9pm and Sunday from 5pm to 9pm. They currently offer delivery, outdoor dining, and pickup. The interior is beautiful, not surprising as Sarbu has an interior design company, SADA Interiors. Really happy to support and shout out this wonderful, woman-owned local business. Check it out – it is guilt-free, feel good pizza!
