Food was absolutely delicious, service was attentive. Portions are very generous! We had reservations for 5:00 when they opened; restaurant filled up shortly thereafter. Will definitely be going back.

If you love Indian food, or if you have never tried Indian food, this is your place. Friendly and helpful staff. Large portions. We had enough leftovers for a second meal. The Naan bread is divine.

We love Saffron!! Best Indian food in Birmingham, do yourself a favor and give them a try! We've been 5-6 times and have always enjoyed our meal. Waiters have been very kind and helped us order and gave us great suggestions.
