This is an old review. We went there 2 years ago. This was on Thanksgiving and the only indian/pakistani halal restaurant that was open at that time.

We can’t stop thinking about this food! We had the lamb kababs which were full of taste. I had the lamb rogan Josh and the lamb just melted in my mouth. My husband had achari chicken and loved it. We appreciated that the menu was so well labeled for gluten-free and vegan options. I didn’t have to worry about asking our waitress or getting something I shouldn’t. We will be back for sure because there are so many options to try.

We wanted to try it for a very long time. Saffron name has not disappointed me so far and it continues we ordered lamb seekh kabab, saffron chicken lazeez and nan. It was amazing food. Loved both dishes. And hey they can make Indian if you like. It is worth going

What a great place for delicious Indian food. The staffs were friendly and attentive. Food are meeting our standards. We ordered Chicken masala and Korma in “hot”, and they’re surely spicy and tasty. Tandoori chicken had bone-in and boneless both on the hot plate. Overall, it was great dining experience. We will be coming back again! Highly recommended. (Ps. A friendly suggestion: the entire restaurant smelled like chlorine cleaning products… I appreciate they clean the place thoroughly, but I also hope they can ventilate more and more so when people walk in, it smell like a restaurant/food instead of a hospital)
