    We celebrated our anniversary and was surprised with a complimentary dessert upon arrival. The food exceeded my expectations, everything was well-seasoned and delicious. Very friendly and attentive service. The price point definitely matched the quality.

    First time dining there and absolutely loved it! Food was delicious, very reasonably priced and got to meet the owner Martin who was very gracious. I had seafood trio and my husband had sassafras chicken. Very large portions. We will definitely be back next time we’re in town!

    Hope made amazing drinks, our servers Alex & Ann were spot on friendly, personable and attentive. Tuna app knocked it out of the park, salads fresh and flavorful and our entrees (vegetable raviolis with salmon and seared scallops) were tasty. It was a celebration night and Sassafras Bistro made extra special, if in Greenville this restaurant is a must. Bon Appetit
