As the world continues to try to dig out of Covid, many metropolitan areas appear to be among the hardest hit, especially when it comes to the restaurant sector. Though delivery services and pop-ups kept some afloat, many other legendary spaces shuttered and few have reopened.

That is just one of the reasons why it is so exciting to announce that Café Sauvage recently opened in Boston’s Back Bay!

Led by the spectacular spousal team of Parisian imports Anais and Antoine Lambert(who have experience at such vaunted venues as Sandrine Rossi’s Frenchie and Colette Wine Bistro) and with a kitchen helmed by former Bastille Kitchen and Four Seasons Chef Kendall DaCosta, Café Sauvage is bringing modern French to a neighborhood that also includes the French Cultural Center of Greater Boston.

With a cozy 38 seats that look out on Massachusetts Avenue near Marlborough Street, Café Sauvage is sure to become a French-inspired fave for savvy Back Bay shoppers, Fenway fans, and MIT mega-minds, among others. And while the décor may be comfortable, the café earns its name with a “wild” menu that includes such French fixtures as a stunning selection of charcuterie and fromage, fresh and flavorful croissantand French fries, as well as such immigrant-inspired, tradition-trashing (yet still magnifique) tastes as a French onion quichejambon beurre made with goat butter, bahn mi with vadouvan dijoinanaise, an acai bowl with orange blossom honey, and a Nutella crepe and latte that are worth the voyage on their own! Speaking of drinks, a liquor license is in the works as are many other menu makers, but be sure to get on the list early as people are sure to get Sauvage about Café Sauvage!
