Saffron Street, located in a food hall, offers delicious Indian street food with standout dishes such as large dosas, chaat, dahi puri, and Kati rolls. The dosa, filled with flavorful potatoes, comes with three dips and is so tasty that even picky eaters will enjoy it. The Kati roll is a must-try, as it transports one's taste buds to India. Customers praise the authentic flavors and good seasoning, making each dish a delightful experience. The restaurant has good wheelchair accessibility, with at least one handicap door on the first side. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, and the staff are attentive and friendly. Visitors especially recommend the Pav bhaji and Thali, highlighting the authentic Indian street food at an affordable price. The place is located in a busy food market that also sells alcohol for those who want it, adding to the lively atmosphere. The kitchen is open and clean, and some guests mention waiting about 20 minutes for their food but find it worth it. Many visitors enjoy the authentic masala dosa prepared by friendly staff and appreciate the effort to make complex dishes as close to ‘fast’ food as possible. Overall, Saffron Street remains a favorite for those seeking authentic Indian cuisine in Calgary downtown, with many looking forward to returning for more.
