About this place Sassafras Eclectic Food Joint

Sassafras Eclectic Food Joint is at 1500 Old Hot Springs Road in Carson City, Nevada's capital. It's about 30 miles south of Reno and a short drive from Lake Tahoe. You'll find it's gay-friendly, though not exclusively a gay venue. The menu's always in flux, and live music's a regular thing. Locals love it - it's got a 4.4 rating on Google from over 1,500 reviews. Weekend evenings are the busiest, especially when there's live music, so book ahead or get there early. Check their Facebook page (facebook.com/sassafraseclecticfoodjoint) or website, sassafrascarsoncity.com, for what's current. The food's better than the casual vibe suggests. On a weekend evening, you'll want to plan ahead to get a table.
