Sassafras American Eatery, Highlands

We all were so impressed by the staff, atmosphere, service, meal and beverages. We really wish we could’ve ate there but had to get takeout because we were running late for an event. This place is fantastic and definitely hope to come back the next time we’re in town.Food: 5/5

Fantastic service! I hope I got the name right—Jada at the bar is outstanding. I ordered the chicken and waffles, which I usually get for takeout, and I can honestly say it's the best I've ever had, without a doubt. My wife tried the poutine, and it was excellent too. This place has a lovely atmosphere and top-notch service. Well done! Food: 5/5.

I haven't been to a restaurant that I truly adored in quite some time. There were five of us in our group, and we decided to try a range of dishes. We shared each other's meals, and I can honestly say that everything everyone ordered was something I would happily select for myself. They even serve fresh-squeezed juices! The ambiance and service were exceptional as well. I will definitely return! View menu

This lovely little restaurant features charming decor and provides excellent customer service. They offer outdoor seating, which is a nice bonus. We experienced no wait upon arrival and found a parking spot conveniently right in front of the establishment! Just be aware that their hours are limited. However, if you're looking for something different from the usual chain restaurants, I highly recommend giving this place a try.

Such a wonderful spot for brunch with ample indoor and outdoor seating options. Location on 32nd St. in the Denver Highlands, there’s plenty of other shops and things to do around the area, making it a great place to spend the afternoon. I loved the outdoor atmosphere on the back patio, the iced lattes were delicious and the banana nut bread French toast blew me away. Would definitely recommend for those looking for “brunch” options in Denver on a weekday!

What a find! Came in for brunch, a few minutes before they closed, but was met with friendly faces. The menu is good, a bit on the spicy side but so worth it! I had the shrimp and grits and the beignets... Finished up with a lavender latte. Cannot recommend these high enough. Our waitress was good and there but a little aloof.Very well decorated! Even though the bathroom seemed in disarray, one stall didn't work, the rest of it was like a fantasy place! Summer garden is available for the cooler evenings and days. Thumbs up!!! View menu

We got the Pigs in a blanket (andouille sausage wrapped in pancake) and the Bison Hash. I loved my Pigs in a blanket. Wasn 't as fond of the Bison hash but my fiance loved it. She wasn 't as fond of my meal. So theres that. But I really loved mine and she really loved hers. **** Mary 's are gangster and make it proud and double the size.Parking: Absolutely no parking in the area. So ya gotta park in front of someone 's house a couple blocks away. Must be a nightmare for the people who live there that the city didn 't see it as a good idea to build any parking structure.

We had a fantastic breakfast. There are several pleasing gluten free options and a pretty extensive menu. The environment and service were also excellent. Two of our party had benedict plates, I had the roast which was yummy. I have never had roast and collard greens for breakfast, but the cheesy potato casserole alone was worth the adventurous choice, one ordered the big breakfast with hashbrown casserole, and one had shrimp and grits. The shrimp and grits was the only menu item that was not raved about. We have family who lives in South Carolina and they didn 't taste like what we are used to getting in that area. They had a tart taste and the consistency was thinner. She said she didn 't...

Solid establishment! If you’re looking for standard American eatery, this might not be your place. These guys put their own spin on everything so if you don’t like different flavor profiles, this might not be for you. That being said, I love this place. We had a short wait to get seated, and took a little bit to get our waters and place an order, but nothing too crazy.Food wise, I’ve had a few different things from here and as I said, they put their own spin on things. I tried the southern sunrise sandwich. I thought it was real good just as is. The bbq sauce has a great flavor that pairs really nice with the green chili gravy.My buddy had the biscuits and gravy and was expecting your standa... View menu
