    Walked in and was immediately greeted, seated (we did have a reservation) and acknowledged by our waitress. My husband ordered the seafood trio and I had the shrimp and grits. Both were delicious! This will not be our last visit to Sassafras- Southern Bistro!

    Great good, varied menu, interesting building, wonderful service. Isacc was our waiter and provided excellent service. Only complaint would be to have cushions for the seats on the patio. We had to sit on our coats to be comfortable. Might want to invest in a few cushions anyhow. Other than that GREAT dinner and evening.

    Always enjoy eating here. There were 8 of us and the service was impeccable, the food was amazing and it was a great experience. Hard to hear full conversations but it seems to be the trend in most restaurants.
