    Mimosas and sweet tea make a great bonding moment for a Sunday brunch
    Katie B.

    Southern food with a hint of elegance. We've seldom experienced an issue with this location. The staff is always helpful and pleasant. We've eaten quick lunch meals, relaxed dinners, and hosted events here. It's a calm, quiet, and friendly atmosphere, and it's enjoyed by so many people from near and far. Some of the menu items tend to be a bit on the heavier/greasier side, but other light menu items provide a nice balance.

    Food was spectacular along with the service. I was recommended to come here. Upon entering the side entrance, I was attracted by the nice ambiance outside. Very cute and comfortable outdoor seating area with pillows for comfort. The inside of the restaurant is small, but the outside patio is very large. In addition, the restaurant was very clean. I was promptly seated and my server was awesome. Another lady came and asked how we were doing; I believe she was the Manager. I ordered the maple salmon with a side of asparagus and dirty rice. My boyfriend ordered a platter with fried grouper, fried shrimp and a side of asparagus, casserole, and red beans & rice. Food was fresh and cook to perfection. I was recommended the honey maple salmon by my server and it was better than I expected. The honey maple syrup may look overpowering but it wasn't. It added a great bit of sweetness to the salmon. Lastly, I ordered the banana pound cake to eat for later. I am hopeful that it will be a delicious dessert. If you stay in Thomasville or visiting I highly recommend coming here. You wont be disappointed with the food nor the service.

    I have had the pleasure of eating at SASS for two of my husband's and my anniversaries. During each visit, I ordered either seafood or a combination of surf and turf. For being quite a ways from the ocean, the seafood was fresh and perfectly seasoned. If you haven't been, definitely get the Beach Bread and fried green tomatoes to start out. They have refreshing, cute cocktails for you to try throughout dinner as well. SASS is set within the old train station just before you cross the tracks and go into downtown Thomasville. Most recently we went when another newly opened restaurant in Thomasville was booked up. We were able to get into SASS with no issue. It appears they have expanded and use the entire train station space as the main restaurant and a lounge/bar-looking space at the back of the building. The service at SASS is always polite and attentive. If you haven't checked this gem out and you live in Tallahassee, it is worth the drive to get some elevated old-fashioned southern comfort food

    Such a cool spot! Right by the train tracks. We sat inside & it was very cool to see the train pass by every once in a while. We started with pimento cheese bread, which was soooo yummy. Then I ordered chicken salad, my boyfriend got jambalaya, his mom got the salmon, and his dad got the shrimp etouffee . For dessert we got Eleanor's pound cake, which was INCREDIBLE! The flavors were amazing for everything but we were talking about that pound cake until the next day lol. Everything was priced very well, but my salad was a little small. Would come back for sure!

    SASS continues to shine! On this follow-up visit to SASS, I'm happy to report that the food remains absolutely superb, consistently fresh, beautifully prepared, and delivered with a speed that is almost hard to believe. It's not often you find a restaurant that can turn out dishes this quickly while maintaining such a high standard of quality and freshness. As for the staff, the younger waiters here tend to be a little shy and standoffish. I chalk that up to inexperience and youthful nerves, so I'm willing to cut them some slack. That said, given the upscale environment SASS strives for, I think a more seasoned staff would better match the atmosphere. Experienced servers just bring a confidence and finesse that elevate the dining experience, especially in a place of this caliber. The host stand can also feel a little chaotic at times. The hostesses are friendly, but they are often very young women and sometimes make seating guests more dramatic than it needs to be... it's visible and, occasionally, a little frustrating. Again, this is something I think could be smoothed out with a more mature, discreet approach. If I owned the place, I'd lean into a polished, experienced front-of-house team, but hey, that's just my opinion, and it doesn't take away from what really matters here: the food. And let me tell you, the food delivers. Every. Single. Time. If you're a grits lover, this is your spot... they do them absolutely right. Their handcrafted cocktails never disappoint, either, though this time I opted for the house wine. It's inexpensive and decent for what it is, just another example of their ability to offer something for everyone. Despite a few hiccups with the service, SASS keeps me coming back again and again. The food is top-tier, the flavors are unforgettable, and I walk away satisfied every time. If you're looking for a place that nails Southern-inspired cuisine with flair, this is it. I'll happily keep returning for that perfect balance of fresh, flavorful dishes and a dining experience I know I can count on.

    Really great menu and food. The Po Boys were very good and the Fish and Grits were one of the best I have had anywhere. Cute location and great service. Worth the trip. Will be back!

    State on the oak tree.   Great photo op

    Sass is simply wonderful. For appetizers I had the shrimp. It was lightly breaded in a sweet and slightly spicy chili sauce. Excellent. Next time I'll order as an entree. You have a choice. My guest ordered the pimento cheese dip. It was accompanied by lightly toasted garlic toast. For dinner I had a 1/2 rack of ribs with cheese grits and collard greens. The ribs were great. Great bbq sauce. And the grits were smooth and creamy. Best grits I ever had. They also have shrimp and grits on the menu. The greens were perfection. Very fresh. He had a burger. And he said the burger was simple but the beef was so tasteful. Best burger he ever had. That's coming from a guy who loves the burgers at the Biltmore in coral gables beat Miami. Or the burgers at Peter Lugars In New York. Pretty stiff competition. Sass won out. We didn't have room for desert but next time I want to try the banana foster and the New Orleans begnins. They sound amazing. Josh was our waiter. Excellent service. You cannot go wrong with Sass. It's southern with a Cajun kick. The owner was there and hands on. We live 45 minutes away from Thomasville. But it's on my regular weekend places to go now. It's worth the drive. And if you live too far, and want to stay overnight. I saw a Marriott in town. Also stop and see the 340 year old oak tree. In Thomasville, Ga. Very quaint and historic.

The restaurant was less crowded than last time, I guess because schools are back in session. My sandwich arrived promptly. I gobbled a couple of bites down, before realizing I had wanted to take some pictures. Oh well, take my word for it - the sandwich was fabulous. A thick piece of grouper with beautifully blackening on a toasted roll with lettuce, red onion and Jonah's sauce. The fries were hot, the slaw could've used some seasoning. The golf ball sized hush puppy was moist on the inside and crispy outside. Great flavors. Very attentive server. Checked back several times and refilled my tea. It was pricey for lunch - $47 with tip. I don't mind paying for outstanding food!

Their menu is limited. As listed in the name itself, this place is known for their fish and grits. Let me tell you.. it didn't disappoint at all. I would definitely return back for their fish & grits. I also tried their gator bites appetizer which was good too. Only complaint it wasn't seasoned but it was fried to perfection. I still enjoyed it. The reason I will rate this restaurant a 4 star is due to their menu items being basically all listed as "market price". I understand it's seafood and it's expensive but that's how you get a unexpected high bill. My gator bites appetizer was $24 which was expensive for a small appetizer. You want know what to expect to pay when dining here.

    Dinner night in Thomasville, we decided on George and Louie's Seafood restaurant…read more It's reminiscent of the old order at the counter and service after pay, restaurants of my youth. I settled in for the fried shrimp, sweet potato fries and coleslaw, while Dawn had the Greek-shrimp salad. We were served quickly and the shrimp was fresh and cooked nicely. I like my fries just a little more crispy than what I received, but they weren't bad. The slaw was good, with just a hint of dill in the mix. Dawn absolutely loved her salad, it was seasoned just right according to her. Everyone was friendly, the waitress made sure we were okay, and the ambience was good. It's a little pricey for everyday dining, but it was definitely worth the price. Give George and Louie's a try if you are in the Thomasville Ga. Area!

Food: I ordered the blue cheese burger, tots, and an ice tea. With tax, $18.33 The burger was very tasty, but it's barely bigger than a slider. The photo I took shows a normal tot in relation to the burger. Tots: cooked right and a good portion. Tipping: optional, and I'm still not sold on tipping for counter service. But here, they do bring it to your table. The issue is the credit card screen; you have 4 options: 20%, 25%, 30%, and "no tip". As I didn't have the option to choose less than 20%, I chose no tip. (Did cash tip the server though) Food good. Service good, value and portion not so much.

True to the quote- I got my call right at 45 minutes. We had a party of 8- me and John, my sister, her hubby and her 2 girls & my mom and her man. I put in an appetizer order for cheese curds right away, knowing I wanted to try them- but when you order appetizers, service slows. They don't take your order for regular food right away. Meanwhile, bathroom situation here is one stall rooms. AKA- one at a time- that was a little brutal. Cheese curds were phenominal- only better I've had were in Milwaukee! Food was ordered and it took forever and a day- my poor niece didn't get her food till everyone was finished eating. She actually left and stood in line for the bathroom to avoid watching us all eat. I felt horrible for her. Meanwhile- everyone's food was fabulous. Except mine. John and I ordered the philly cheesesteak. There was not nearly enough meat. The burgers that hit the table- huge, juicy and cheesey. The charcuterie board- spectacular! The bowl of soup huge and filling. Our cheesesteak- bread and a ton of cheese and over cooked meat that didn't meet the ratio of meat-bread-cheese. For a very small, curated menu- I expected everything to be delicious. I was genuinely sad that our meal failed. And the wait on Addy's lunch was unacceptable. Those 2 things bumped a 4 star review down, I actually selected 4 when I started typing and then changed it to 3 because recalling this memory to write this up... sigh. I love supporting small. These are fixable issues.
