"I'm not saying I had low expectations, but I was blown away by how great everything was here. I started it with a Paloma, which was absolutely perfect. I mean, the perfect drink! Then I moved on to whiskey fries, which were just standard fries but the whiskey gravy was really pungent! And then finished with the fried chicken sandwich, which was big and juicy and moist (it was borderline indecent, you're reading that correctly) and tasty! Everything was so much better than I expected it to be. Again, I know that's backhanded, sorry, I just didn't know to expect such a tasty lunch. The drinks menu is outrageously extensive so I'll be back for more. Thank you!!"

20/10 absolutely loved it! Jon, our bartender, was phenomenal! Had a wonderful time. Cocktails were exceptional and the atmosphere was friendly! The whiskey fries were so good im drooling thinking about them again! Highly recommend going here if you are able!

My husband and I visited Sassafras midday (1230ish) and gladly welcomed the air conditioned respite in a Philadelphia heat wave. I had pomegranate martinis (excellent) and we shared 3 appetizers. The spring rolls, sausage rolls, and cheese curds were fantastic. The ginger dipping sauce with the spring rolls was so good, I used it for the sausage rolls in lieu of the sweeter sauce provided. Our bartender was kind, friendly, and attentive. We stayed for longer than intended because of the quiet ambiance. It was a highlight of our trip.
