We came here on a Saturday evening around 8pm and didn’t have a reservation but they sat us down quickly. There wasn’t that many tables occupied but it was very rainy outside, but closer to 9pm more people started to come in. I have never been to an Indian restaurant before but wanted to try here because they have so many marked gluten free options! We got the onion bhajia which was really good. Then for entree my fiance got a lamb dish and I got the egg biryani which was good! Overall our meal was great and it is a BYOB establishment!

Saffron Indian Cuisine offers a delightful culinary experience that transports you straight to the heart of India. On my recent visit, I had the pleasure of trying the Chicken Masala and Garlic Naan, and both dishes exceeded my expectations. The Chicken Masala was rich and flavorful, with a perfect balance of spices that brought out the tender chicken's natural taste. The sauce was creamy and well-seasoned, making it a perfect match for the naan. Speaking of the naan, the Garlic Naan was simply heavenly—soft, warm, and infused with just the right amount of garlic, it complemented the chicken perfectly. The ambiance of the restaurant is inviting, with a warm and friendly atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, providing excellent service throughout the meal. Overall, Saffron Indian Cuisine is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Indian flavors in a welcoming setting. I can’t wait to return and explore more of their menu!

Beautiful restaurant with a classy, calm atmosphere and attentive and caring service. The food is phenomenal and very well priced. Appetizers are large and you will have plenty of leftovers, my favorite Indian spot in the area!

Premium quality and freshly made. Excellent, unique taste with great portion size. Sai is both the owner and chef and understands the value of service. Highly recommend.

Fancy restaurant! Goat curry was authentic and the service was excellent too.

Tonight I had a date night with my husband and another couple. We ordered Butter Lamb (by request), Lamb Roganjosh, Vegetable Jalfrezi, and Bhindi Masala (Okra). All of these dishes were cooked extremely well and from one sauce to another, even more delightful. The owners are extremely friendly, and I have to say that I truly enjoyed my experience here. Also, if you are vegan, vegetarian or gluten free, the owners here have all your dietary restriction needs covered. They truly thought of their customers when creating their menu, and it shows by the way you are greeted by them. If you are looking for high quality Indian food with excellent taste then this is the place to go to!!! I cannot wait to go back again!!!

We’ve been here a handful of times now and the food has always been consistent, service has always been kind and attentive. We had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with the owner and chef as it happened to be and the passion for his restaurant is apparent in his food. We keep coming back for the naan, which they have always been kind to bring it as we like it ( ie extra / less butter, spicier, crispier etc) It’s become our go to for Sunday night comfort food. Give them a try and if it’s not what you like they’re open to feedback. :)

Our waitress was so nice! She made sure we got everything we needed, the Chicken 65 on their appetizer menu was so tasty (especially if you pair it with their green sauce) and their vegetable samosas were so good. If you’re looking for a good butter chicken look no further!!!!
