Saffron is a calm, vibrant setting. The food that comes out is rich, and it’s full of unique and satisfying textures.
Standouts for apps were the samosas and the avocado bhel which really surprised me.
Main courses/entrees were the stars of the show. The Aloo Gobi was a warm, rich, savory mix of perfectly cooked vegetables and fresh spices. The Kolapuri with chicken was also spicy and delicious.
For me this was an 8.9 experience and I’d definitely revisit in the future.

I’ve been to Saffron many times and it has been consistently excellent. Dine in or take out, the food is second to none. The service when you’re there is the perfect balance of feeling pampered but right at home at the same time.
Tonight I tried a new dish – tikka masala pasta. This was the fusion meal that I never imagined I wanted this much! The flavors were amazing and the pasta was perfect to hold the gravy so that every bite was a treat. My only regret is that I couldn’t eat all of it in one sitting. But now I have enough to hold me over until I’m back in a day two to have this again!

I was lucky enough to be the first order of the tikka masala pasta and it was amazing! I also had the privilege of meeting the owner and he was extremely kind. I will absolutely be going back for the pasta very soon! (The rest of their menu is also amazing!)

Great food with friendly service and a clean, relaxed atmosphere. Good bread, aloo Gobi, tikka masala, fried rice, and noodles. Reasonable prices.

Great little place with fantastic food. They took care of our every need. We had the saffron biryani and were blown away. We live in a state where good Indian cuisine is widely available and were more than surprised at how great the food was. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Every bite was packed with flavor, but their “spicy” is not spicy its comparable to other restaurants medium. The butter roti was dripping with butter, and very good. The Aloo Mutter was good, not as much sauce which was a bummer.
Nothing was notable about the service or atmosphere, just average.

We have been meaning to try Saffron for some time and finally made it in tonight. We had the Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Vindaloo, Tandoori Chicken with garlic naan and raita. The food was absolutely phenomenal! The tandoori chicken was so incredibly juicy and tender, and the vindaloo did not disappoint! The only thing I’d like to change would be more lamb as the kids devoured it and I only got two pieces 🙂 Best of all was the amazing customer service, we felt like we were guests in someone’s home cooking for us. Everyone who helped take care of us were so attentive and kind, and the owner was lovely when he checked on us. This is hands down the most authentic and best Indian food we’ve experienced since we moved here from CA 7 years ago. This is our new favorite spot! Our 10 & 14 year old boys also loved it and can’t wait to go back. Thank you for the wonderful experience! -The Chapman Family

I ordered catering from Saffron for a house party of about 15 people, and the food quality was outstanding. The chicken pepper fry was easily the highlight—absolutely the best dish. We also ordered Manchurian veg noodles, chilli chicken, and chilli paneer, and every item was delicious. All my friends loved the food and kept asking about the restaurant. It truly made my birthday party feel extra special.

First time here and we were VERY impressed. The biryani and chole were both incredible dishes, packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. The servers were kind and helpful. The owner, Kalpesh, was just as kind and welcoming. He asked us what we like and gave us thoughtful suggestions that ended up being spot on. Amazing food and great people. We will definitely be back!

Best restaurant of my trip so far! The staff were the kindest people ever. The gentleman who I spoke to I believe may be the owner (Kalpesh)? Wasn’t a pleasure talking to him and he went above and beyond to ensure my meal was perfect.
Had the goat vindaloo and the sauce was superb! Just the right amount of spice. Please visit this restaurant if you’re ever in the area and want high quality Indian food!
