My husband and I went to Sassafraz for Winterlicious 2017.
Sassafraz is located in the heart of Yorkville, downtown Toronto.
It’s a cute little house like restaurant, with painted yellow exterior.
Ambiance
Before entering I already thought the restaurant is so pretty with its yellow exterior. When I entered, it was even prettier, with its evenly spaced out white linen covered tables. The room felt light and airy with a sophisticated flare. You certainly feel important here, lol.
Staff
We were greeted in a friendly and welcoming manner and was seated promptly.
Our server was fine at first then throughout our meal, she was nowhere in sight. At the end of our meal, I had to flag another server to ask for our bill. That was quite disappointing. I would expect a posh place like this, the server would have been more attentive.
