The appreciation of food and drink is a main reason why couples select a restaurant for their wedding. At Sassafraz, guests make their selection at the table. Custom menus are placed at each setting; servers will take each guest’s order directly. All dishes are the same as those on our à la carte dining menu. Many food and drink options are available including our “food & drink” bundle.
