We have been to several of the restaurants in this casino, but this was our first time here.
It was a weekday, so it was not very crowded.
We ordered spareribs and prime rib.
Both were generous portions for the price.

Indian Bread is a must try. Hot and fresh. Favorite entrees include Oxtail Soup and Prime Rib dinner. If you're hungry, try the full rack of ribs

First time being at this place since pre Covid. The food was very tasty and reasonably priced, however the food could have been a little hotter. The soup and garlic mashed potatoes were lukewarm and the prime rib was a little over charred. The lighting was pretty dark for 1:00-2:00pm on weekend. Other than that service was good and I will be back.

Unacceptable Experience at Sage CafƩ - Costly Damage and Lack of Accountability.

I recently dined at Sage CafƩ inside Barona Casino, and I must say that my experience was nothing short of a disaster. What was supposed to be a simple, enjoyable meal turned into a highly costly ordeal, both financially and in terms of the utter disregard for customer care and responsibility.

While eating a salad I ordered, I bit into what I expected to be a pitted olive, only to realize—too late—that it wasn’t fully pitted. This seemingly minor error resulted in a broken crown, causing extensive dental damage that required $2,600 worth of repairs. Not only was this incredibly painful, but the aftermath was made far worse by Barona Casino’s complete refusal to accept responsibility.

Because Barona Casino is located on Indian reservation land, they are not subject to the same rules and regulations as businesses operating outside the reservation. This means they cannot be held accountable in regular Superior Court, and instead, they essentially make up their own rules. The inability to seek proper legal recourse in a court system most of us rely on is absolutely unacceptable and leaves customers like me with no reasonable means of compensation or justice.

This kind of behavior—serving potentially dangerous food and then hiding behind reservation status—is not just bad business practice; it’s irresponsible and unethical. It’s outrageous that a well-known establishment like Barona Casino would allow this to happen without offering any form of compensation or solution.

I want to strongly warn anyone considering dining at Sage CafĆ© to be cautious. The lack of accountability and disregard for their patrons’ well-being speaks volumes about their priorities. I believe the public deserves to know how they handle issues like this, which can have severe physical and financial consequences for their customers.

It’s hard to trust a business that creates its own regulations to avoid facing consequences for their negligence. This type of behavior will undoubtedly damage their reputation, and rightly so.

There was a 20 minute wait, but they do text messages now, so my wife and I could keep winning in the Casino.
This was a great value and really good food. Simple as it was, I had a bowl of oatmeal with extra raisins, and my wife had the always good bowl of Chicken Tortilla Soup.
Totally filling and satisfying, the cherry on top was, with my wife’s player card, our server returned with the check already totally paid.
Highly recommend you visit Barona Casino, and Sage Cafe!

Have been coming here for years and today was the worst experience I have ever had definitely will not be coming back here is the burnt BLT I received waited 45 min for another at that point I was just ready to pay the bill and leave growing up on this reservation I have came to this restaurant since it opened and the amount of money over the years I have spent here it just makes me sad

Service has gone down over the past few months. We stopped coming because of this. Came today. Hour wait with 14 open tables. Food was ok but server brought wrong toast, forgot the pancakes and never once came to the table. 5 servers working 12 tables with a one hour wait. The casino probably doesn't count on the restaurant making money but if it was a stand aline facility without the casino as a captive audience I don't see this place doing well enough to stay open. Few if the course are good but they weren't using any of those tables. Was not given options on sides or silverware. The longer I write the more I remember not being good.

Reservations recommended. 1-2 hour waits depending on the size of your party and how busy it is. Tables spaced far apart. Service is personable and efficient. Large portions on food, good quality, ambience is quiet but can be a little loud depending on how drunk the patrons are. Pro tip: the fried chicken is bland, not crispy and needs more seasoning, the sinigang and oxtail bolalo soups can feed 3-4, bring your own large serving spoon, the server will not offer one.
