Lovely night out. The sangria was outstanding. So was the filet mignon small plate. Highly recommend that dish. The other small plates were yummy, not outstanding as we had hoped. Solid good meal. I recommend.

It is located near my wife's work and she had wanted to try it for quite some time. So, last Friday night (8-5-220 we checked it out and I came away pretty impressed with the dining experience there. The food for the most part was really delicious. The only complaint we really had was our shrimp being slightly overcooked and the dip for the Papas Fritas lacking a bit of kick to it but the seasoning of the fries more than made up for any flavor that the dip may have lacked. All in all, we enjoyed our meal and at the very least we will go back to have the Asiago Seafood Dip. It was absolutely addictive!!

Had a reservation for last night and drove in from West Saint Louis. Arrived and the restaurant was closed.

Fantastic food, drinks and the patio was divine! Love Sanctuaria!

We went to Sanctuaria for our anniversary. We booked an early dinner (on a date that turned out to be poorly chosen due to a local event...not the fault of the restaurant). The restaurant was very uncrowded, but still loud due to employees chatting, etc. The food was good, and we enjoyed trying the various small plates, but drinks were only so-so. Their beer menu was hopelessly out of date. The service wasn't bad, but definitely not attentive. All in all, not a bad experience, but we probably won't be back.

There was an issue with communication. Our waitress brought our things that we didn’t order and we didn’t receive food/drinks that we did order. The supervisor was great though and listened to our concerns.

Menu items unavailable, rushed to order, rushed to leave. Food was not that great. Had a filet medallion that was mostly just fat. Very disappointing

The drinks were to die for. Great service however, a group of us were there for brunch on a Sunday. It was..meh. The omelet I received was overcooked. Fried potatoes were under cooked...crunchy even; it was a weird taste. The decor is COOL. Great spot for drinks but I don't know if I would eat there again. I might give it another go with that.

We had a great experience at Sanctuaria! We sat on the cool patio. We'd love to know how the owners acquired a French conservatory as well as some of the other unique decor. Since it was a hot evening, most patrons were inside, so the inside vibe was boisterous, whereas the patio was relaxed. The food and drinks were all great. For "small plates" we thought the portions were larger than expected. We ordered the chicken wings, bacon wrapped dates, asiago seafood dip, and cuban chicken sliders. All were unique and delicious! I enjoyed the Paloma flight, too! We will definitely be back.

Sanctuaria has definitely gone downhill in the past few years. Service was just awful Started to order our meals-were informed that 2 things we wanted were out of stock, the charcuterie board and the guacamole. Blamed it on supply chain issues. Really ? I have avocados at my house but they can’t get any? Then he said they import their cheeses for the charcuterie board from Spain so they’ve been backed up. Um go to any grocery store and get some cheese. Give me a break. Our cocktails came quickly but it took over an hour for any food to show up. No bread nothing. Even after we asked for some. Ok so the food finally shows up they forgot two of our items and never said anything about it when the check came they were still on the check -unbelievable The food was ok but nothing special Will not be returning
