SAGA - The Lounge and Terraces

“Just finished celebrating my birthday here last night and it was truly an incredible experience. The service is what I expect from a fine dining establishment. I observed that the staff are in lockstep of one another, ensuring they guide you from the time you step out of the elevator, to when you depart. I deeply appreciate the high level of professionalism, enthusiasm and steady energy we experienced from every person we came into contact with to make this dinner special. We participated in the 10 course menu and each bite was carefully thought out, layered in flavor, presentation and quality. You can tell the Chef sources his ingredients carefully as you can taste the quality in each bite. The ambiance is high end yet welcoming and the views are stunning. We had the Gimlet cocktail and when I tell you, it was one of the best cocktails I’ve had, it was incredible, clean and fragrant (perfect for Gin lovers. Thank you to Chef Mitchell and his incredible team for a beautiful experience 🫶🏽”

“Come here for a special occasion. The service is exceptional—from the booking process through arrival. I fell in love with the entire dining experience: perfectly paced courses and perfectly sized portions. The views were spectacular as well. Thank you Saga for a memorable and truly special night.”

“A hidden gem!! Beautiful location, amazing hospitality. As soon as we got there we were greeted with a drink from the bar. The experience wasn’t rushed at all and the view is breathtaking. Everything we tasted was delicious but the deserts were another level of perfection! All the cocktails 100/10, shout out to Tony ! He’s such a gem !! We asked for a list of places to visit after saga since we wanted to experience night life in NYC and the server came through with a list of recommendations. Overall we had the best experience at Saga and will be back next time we are in NYC”

“Everything was exceptional—the food, service, and ambience. This is one of the few restaurants I’ve visited where I couldn’t find a single thing to criticize. The only minor thing to note was the madai tempura course, which was a bit too hot. I had to take it out after trying to eat just one bite. Shoutout to every server that day; they truly went out of their way to make my birthday special. Every course was carefully described, beautifully presented, and creative. I was especially impressed by the fluke and sawara courses—both were exceptionally well executed. Other favorites included the venison, the tea course, and the dessert course.”

“Calling Saga a hidden treasure in the sky is truly an understatement. This 2-Michelin-star gem in the Financial District delivers an experience so exceptional, I’m convinced it’s ready for its third. From start to finish, the evening was a masterclass in culinary excellence and impeccable hospitality. The food was nothing short of extraordinary. Each of the ten courses showcased remarkable technique, thoughtful composition, and flavors that linger long after the plates were cleared. The venison with truffle, prepared with meticulous care and layered with rich flavors, easily secured its place as one of the most memorable dishes I’ve ever had, definitely a top-five “I’d come back just for this” moment. Service at Saga is prestige in its purest form. Sebastian, our main guide through the evening, elevated the entire experience. His passion, enthusiasm, and deep knowledge brought each dish to life, making every bite feel even more meaningful. To close the night, their Moroccan tea blend was absolutely perfect, the fragrant, soothing, and beautifully balanced tea, that I genuinely wished they sold it so I could enjoy it at home. It was the ideal finale to a flawless tasting menu. Saga is more than a restaurant; it’s an experience on the 63rd floor overlooking the Big Apple. I strongly recommend this place.”
