    Food was excellent! I’ll definitely be back to try other dishes. I had the mango salmon and shared the steak nacho dish. Service was top tier! I can’t render his name but he was a new waiter.

    This restaurant never disappoints! There are not many restaurants that will allow you to change sides and customize your entree choice. Sassafras’s atmosphere and staff are top notch.
