    The appetizers were delicious and came out quickly! We got the fried green tomatoes, sweet and spicy shrimp, and BBQ egg rolls. And the Sassafras fried chicken never misses! One of our fave places in Greenville for sure!

    Celebrated our granddaughter's 10th birthday. They were ready for us with a card in the table wishing her a happy birthday and giving her a free dessert. The waitress was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was outstanding! Looking forward to our next visit!
