Note: no more happy hour since covid. I've had bad luck ordering anything I really enjoyed, but I know others that love the food. Worth another go.

One of the best restaurants in the Carson City/Reno area. Make a day trip and go for lunch on Saturday and then go to Carson Hot Springs across the parking lot and finish your outing with a great local beer from the Shoetree Brewery next door and live music to enjoy along with the outstanding selection of beer and ales.

Great place to go with large families. It isn't the cheapest but you get what you pay for. Great food and service, especially after the hot springs.

Fantastic little restaurant tucked away in a corner of Carson.This place will definitely have something for everyone.One of the few "pricey" places in town where I felt that every penny spent was not only justified but completely deserved.The food was delicious and we all shared so we could try different things since we were all pretty new there.Definitely try the cocktail menu as everything on there is a hit.Our waiter was an absolute joy and great at making sure we had everything we needed before we did.I don't have enough good things to say about this awesome place.Whether you're a local or just visiting, it's a must stop.

The food was good, had the Cheese Burger with the burnt cheese. The Asian Slaw was not as good as the Burger. It's one of those joints with a lot of Menu.

The last three Fridays we've had amazingly tasty early-dinners at Sassafras. Adam was our gracious and attentive server for all three meals. Our first Friday, we had the super tasty roasted beet salad, the fish Veracruz, and a bottle of the Backhouse Pinot Noir. Our second Friday, we both had the fish and chips with the blue cheese slaw, and the third Friday we both had the super delicious and absolutely best ever shrimp Louie's. The restaurant is warm, welcoming and eclectic creole themed. Super cute, always tasty, with amazing staff. We'll definitely be back soon!

I cannot write about the food, but I can write about the service and atmosphere. We went to the restaurant to have a meal after a long day, and when we arrived, no one addressed us or helped us. After waiting, a few employees walked by and one finally stopped by. He said it would be 5-10 minutes to get a table, looking around the restaurant there were plenty of open tables. He said they needed clear off tables and it should be less than 5 minutes. Well 5 minutes came and gone, 6 minutes came and gone, more employees walked by and more empty tables were in the restaurant. Did I also mention that it was at 6:30PM, and NO ONE ELSE had a name on a list.First time that I have felt that I was not welcome at this joint, I will not be back. What a bummer

The food here is so fresh and unique. I always bring my out of town guests here for a glimpse of what good food should be! The Thai Chicken Salad is my happy place!

I am a local, and don't get out often. Went there 3 years ago with my dad before he passed away and with my family. I also sent two of my kids there before prom and a dance to have something different than the typical. Although not a great experience for them either, ny friend and I went today..A Sat at 2 pm. Walked in. Stood there for 5 min before we were looked at. 3 people walked by and said they'd be with us shortly, and we asked if we could just sit at a pub table at the bar. He yelled at the bar tender to ask if ok...as she rolled her eyes. We sat down with a menu provided. We weren't acknowledged or asked if we wanted water or anything. Not even a drink although we were at the bar. 20 min later we walked out and went to the Brewery and had a great beer and left for the Great Basin Brewery in which we had great service & food.
Food I had was good, drink was good. The service has gone down hill. I've grown up in the area and have been going here for YEARS and each time I go I am more and more disappointed with their service.. our group walked in a little after 4:30 on a Thursday and we were treated like walking in was the worst thing we could ever do to them. It felt like we were being rushed out and after we paid we sat and chatted for maybe 10 mins and the waitress came around to clear our table and it just felt like we had to leave so we did.. it was just a weird and sad experience.
