Best Southern American Restaurants in Highlands / Sapphire

We enjoyed a great brunch at the soft opening of HSC’s brunch service. Looking forward to having this as a regular brunch option in Highlands!

This is the second time we’ve been there and the food never fails to impress. The overall experience was amazing. It’s awesome that a restaurant like this exists in the small town of Waynesville

Leigh was knowledgeable about the restaurant, estate and gave wonderful recommendations on the menu. We had the Meatloaf and Pot Roast, they were delicious and memorable, would definitely order them again. The Beet and Burrata salad was excellent. Loved the restaurant and hotel. We also ate breakfast at this restaurant, very good, great selection of breakfast items.

Our server Cary was helpful, professional and friendly in selecting both food and beverages. The beet burrata salad was outstanding. The pheasant special was delicious and included wonderful vegetables. We shared a crab cake which was light and somewhat creamy in texture. Excellent choice. My husband's osso buco tasted delicious but was slightly tough, hence the four star food rating. Cary's suggestion for a pinot noir was an ideal accompaniment for our meal. Will definitely return next time we're in Greenville.

After receiving a gift card from our kids we went to Sassafras last night, for dinner, and it did not disappoint!! My husband had the ribeye and said it was the best steak he ever had. I had the stuffed fried chicken with brussel spouts, it was delicious!! Our server,Taylor was exceptional!! Checked in with us several times to make sure we were good with everything. Management also checked up on our dining experience. Great atmosphere, great staff, would definitely give it 5 stars! We will be back.
