The service was just as impressive. The staff was attentive, welcoming, and made sure we had everything we needed for a great dining experience.
If you’re a fan of Indian cuisine, I highly recommend visiting Saffron. It’s a wonderful spot for a flavorful and enjoyable meal, whether with family, friends, or even on your own. Can’t wait to go back and try more dishes!
The service was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. The staff went above and beyond to make the evening special.
The ambiance was perfect for a birthday celebration, combining modern elegance with a cozy, welcoming atmosphere.
Saffron made the night unforgettable, and we can’t wait to come back!
The food? A visual and culinary delight. Each dish was beautifully presented, with unique plating that caught the eye and flavors that lingered on the palate. The combination of creativity and taste made every bite memorable. The distinct flavors and artistic presentation were easily the highlights of the evening.
Highly recommend for anyone seeking a complete dining experience — where the setting, service, and flavors come together in perfect harmony.
The menu at Saffron is extensive and mouth-watering, making it difficult to choose. For our appetizers, we decided on Sweet Potato Chaat, Tandoori Chicken Croquettes, Pulled Tandoori Chicken Bao Buns, and Kasondi Shrimp. Each dish was incredible, but I have to admit, the size of the shrimp was quite surprising–almost like a mini lobster!
For the main course, we ordered the Tandoori Octopus, Saffron Butter Chicken, and Sea Bass Goan Curry, accompanied by black garlic naan and truffle naan. Every dish was a delightful fusion of flavors and textures, showcasing the chef’s expertise.
To top off our meal, we had the Kulfi, which was presented in a super cool and unique way, adding a fun end to our dining experience.
When we first walked in, a gentleman by the back door directed us to our table. The ambience was very nice. I’m always a little hesitant to try new places—especially on special occasions—but after seeing so many influencers posting about Saffron, we decided to give it a try.
I’m not very familiar with Indian food, but I’m quite adventurous when it comes to trying new cuisines. My hope was to learn a bit more about the food and have an informative waiter who could guide us in choosing the right dishes.
After sitting at our table for a few minutes, a waiter came by and dropped off the wine glasses. I didn’t think he was our server because he never introduced himself or even said good evening. A few minutes later, he returned and bluntly asked, “What you want eat?” I was caught off guard, but having traveled and experienced different cultures, I decided to assume it was just a language barrier.
We explained that it was our first time there and that we were hoping to learn a little about the food so he could recommend some popular dishes. Unfortunately, that didn’t go very far. He seemed disinterested and, in very few words, just told us to order “this and that.” Honestly, I felt like we were doing him a favor by dining there, and that asking questions was bothering him.
We tried a few dishes: the crispy cauliflower (it was okay), the chicken bao bun (very good), and the goat cheese truffle naan—which was described to us very differently by the waiter and ended up just being naan stuffed with goat cheese. I wouldn’t order that again.
For our main dish, we went with the only thing we were familiar with—the butter chicken. It was flavorful and good, but I wish I could have discussed the spice level. When I asked about it, I was told “it’s not spicy,” but for me, it definitely was. Everyone’s tolerance is different, and I wish they had gone lighter on the red pepper oil drizzled on top.
We also ordered hummus and saag paneer, but neither really stood out. After that, we’d had enough and just asked for the check.
This place is advertised as a fine Indian restaurant, and I was expecting a higher level of service—especially considering the prices of the dishes. I’ve seen a lot of posts about their desserts, but honestly, I didn’t want to spend my wedding anniversary browsing my phone to figure out what to order.
