Delicious food, great service. Group dinner of 8 where we ordered family style. The waiter did a great job of bringing out the food quickly and spread out so we could share. And the food was delicious. We tried a significant portion of the menu. All was good, but favorites of mine were the uttapam and the butter chicken.

Absolutely amazing Indian food with a modern / fusion touch. This would have been Michelin star if it was in NYC or LA. The food is really good, while it looks modern it tastes traditional. A must try!
The soft shell crab, butter chicken, prawn curry, biryani, bao buns, fig naan and pomegranate raita were exceptional. Can’t wait to go back.
Cheese dosa is unique and a favorite. The service is very friendly and quick. Reservations recommended.

DELICIOUS. Beautiful little spot just off the river with phenomenal food. The Lassi cocktail was not what I expected and blew my socks off. Highly recommend the paneer dish and the dal makhani, but am confident that everything on the menu is equally as good. Worth the price.

We finally made it to Saffron for dinner and it exceeded our expectations! Everything we had was delicious, the drinks were so fun, and our server was attentive and friendly. We tried a series of the small plates, with the chicken momo and the samosa platter being particular highlights. The momo chili sauce was delicious, I would have taken a carton of that to go! The samosa batter was light and fluffy and the cheese samosa was surprisingly tasty. We also had the shrimp tandoori, truffle mushroom, chicken tandoori bao, and the hashbrown chaat.
For entrees we shared the butter chicken (absolutely recommend!!) and the Lamb curry. We got the truffle naan and the black garlic naan—which was a surprising hit!
We will definitely be returning to Saffron soon!
