    Wonderful dining experience! Food was delicious and the service was outstanding. We went on a Wednesday and they had half priced bottles of wine, which was a nice surprise. The menu prices were reasonable for downtown and the portions were good. Would highly recommend Sassafras Southern Bistro!

    After receiving a gift card from our kids we went to Sassafras last night, for dinner, and it did not disappoint!! My husband had the ribeye and said it was the best steak he ever had. I had the stuffed fried chicken with brussel spouts, it was delicious!! Our server,Taylor was exceptional!! Checked in with us several times to make sure we were good with everything. Management also checked up on our dining experience. Great atmosphere, great staff, would definitely give it 5 stars! We will be back.

    Can’t say enough good things about this place! The food was delicious. The waitress was great; very friendly and genuine. We were immediately acknowledged upon arrival. Our reservation was at 7:45 and were seated a few minutes before our reservation. Our anniversary was immediately acknowledged by the manager and we were given a free dessert. The peanut butter pie was amazing! We will definitely be back. Thank you for a wonderful anniversary dinner!
