Chris DavisOctober 3, 2016I love a good ol group to bring to a place and share everything! This place looks cool inside and out! Georgeous patio. Def a very trendy place but not too fancy. Go here for happy hour and cocktails
Riverfront TimesOctober 7, 2013Voted Best Tapas/Small Plates in RFT's Best of STL 2013. Try the cornbread, studded with jalapeños slathered with honey butter, or the piquillo peppers stuffed with goat cheese. http://bit.ly/16OABA9
- Riverfront TimesDecember 2, 2013150 different drinks aren't the only reason to come to Sanctuaria. Try the plump camarónes, which are simmered in a thick, garlicky, peppery tomato sauce. Delicious! http://bit.ly/19dbsdM
Ajose OlamiposiFebruary 18, 2017Their drink selection is unlike anything I have ever seen before– WHAT! I first selected something off of their new seasonal cocktail menu and it did not disappoint.I LOVE SANCTUARIA
Zack MinarickAugust 31, 2015More of a club vibe cocktail bar, at least on weekends. Everything here is really solid. Plus the bar is amazing. Check out their Sunday happy hour- Riverfront TimesAugust 4, 2014Small plates that range from simple pleasures, such as cornbread studded with jalapeños and slathered with honey butter to grilled lamb chops served with a sophisticated Bosc pear-and-pine nut salsa.

- RachyxoOctober 12, 2013This is the best place for tapas and cocktails! Try the banana rum cheesecake, chicken skewers, & the wicked good shrimp. But don't come here if you aren't prepared to tip. The bartenders are amazing!
- Quentin HendricksSeptember 14, 2018Great food and drinks! A little pricey, so it's not going to be a frequent stop, but if you're going out with a group and looking to split the bill, this is a solid choice.
- 24 Hour Food GeekFebruary 4, 2020Cuban chicken sliders - mojo battered chicken breast, bacon aioli, Monterey Jack cheese, and crispy plantains. #sanctuaria #24hourfoodgeek Follow us at http://24hourfoodgeek.com

Tapas is delicious! The frita sliders are my favorite. The cocktails are second to none as well. Try the Gin Fizzer. One of my favorite atmospheres in the city.- Riverfront TimesNovember 20, 2014Sanctuaria offers a unique tapas experience and an innovative cocktail menu wrapped in Latin-infused décor. Read more
Join the cocktail club you won't be sorry. Treat your bar team good. All the food here is amazing. Late night happy hour has some half priced dishes. I love love love this place!- Riverfront TimesJune 5, 2013Try the caipirinha, Brazil's best-loved drink. It starts with Cabana Cachaça, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup and mint leaves plucked right from Sanctuaria's garden. http://bit.ly/ZtLsJz
Debbie YeeSeptember 17, 2015Good variety of cocktails and mocktails! There's and outside patio for when the weathers nice
MelNovember 29, 2012Highly recommend the CALMER THAN YOU ARE cocktail. (Apple Juice, Don Q Gran Anejo Rum, Hot Water, Cinnamon Syrup, Lime Juice, Fresh Rosemary)
Charles TaylorAugust 1, 2017Good turn out for the fundraising event. Lots of dogs to hand out homemade treats to.
- Riverfront TimesNovember 15, 2013The Mint Julep come in a chilled silver goblet & has lots of mint & lots of bourbon & just the right amount of sweetness. http://bit.ly/1hM1AAX
- RianaApril 6, 2011HAVE to try the Cabrales Cigars - Spanish blue cheese & leek fondue, rolled into phyllo "cigars" then pan seared and accented w/ sherry-raisin sauce.
Kyle KratkyJuly 19, 2011Not a huge menu, but almost everything on it is great. Sit outside on the patio if the weather is right. They do a near-perfect classic Manhattan. Read more
Go! MagazineDecember 23, 2010Top cocktails of 2010: Try the Wascally Wabbit, made with North Shore Aquavit, fresh carrot juice, Yellow Chartreuse and St. Germain Elderflower liqueur. (Evan S. Benn)- MO Wine PleaseApril 6, 2013The Frita Sliders are killer. Ignore the Beggars Purse and Onion & Poblano Rings. When they say 'Sangrita' they literally mean 'small sangria'.
Adam GreeneJune 15, 2012The Havana Bread is worth the wait! Get a scoop of Carrot Cake Ice Cream to top it off. Foodgasm!
Greg ColemanFebruary 10, 2013I love this place but if you want good service either make a reservation or come during a slow time. Literally 7 people "served" us tonight and it was awkward and lacked communication.- Riverfront TimesOctober 26, 20112011 RFT Best of St. Louis Winner - Best Cocktail Name "Creeping Death"-Well, they all are, when you stop to think about it.
