Where do we start? Let’s establish one thing. We’re big fans of Sass. The restaurant and bar which opened last year is the perfect place for a romantic, elegant date between 5 and 9pm, and the ideal spot to hit for a fun night out starting 10pm. That’s when the DJ cranks up the volume and the party gets started. What about the food you ask? We sampled it for you and here is what we thought.

The staff is welcoming and attentive. The charming aesthetic of the place wins you over as soon as you walk in – not to mention, it has a Nile view. After you’re seated, you’re served Flo water, and then Parisian-looking, muffin bread with slices of butter. That’s how debonair the vibe is.

The menu incorporates lots of varieties and cuisines. From tapas and salads, to sushi and sashimi, you will be spoilt for choice. Sass also offers soups, pastas and main dishes of meat, chicken and seafood. Of course, we’ll be reviewing what we actually ordered but because of the consistency in quality we received in every dish, we can’t wait to come back later and try their other offerings. Here’s what we got.

 

Fettuccine Bolognese

There is nothing simpler than a Fettuccine Bolognese pasta dish…right? Think again. The Sass chef’s take on this classic Italian dish was perfect with its fresh pasta and sumptuous sauce giving the plate a rich taste.

 

Grilled Chicken

The seasoning was on point and the chicken is j-u-i-c-y. On the side, you get potato wedges and a brown mushroom sauce dip, equally as delicious. This is what we call “finger licking good!”

 

Sass Cookie Pan

This dessert was composed of a buttery cookie pan, topped with salted caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream. By the time it arrived to our table, we had been full, honestly, but we somehow managed to lick up the whole pan at the end. They call their dessert “sweet bites” for a reason.

For virgin drinks you can’t go wrong with the Tropical Freeze or Virgin Colada, or you can try one of their signature cocktails.
