Saffron Indian Cuisine

This is the best Indian food restaurant I have been too in America. The food is incredible good with a real tast of India. The staff is very nice and helpful.

Tried this place for the first time tonight, and it was fantastic. My favorite Indian restaurant of all time was one I found while living in Oregon. I missed their food dearly since moving here, and found Saffron after doing a quick Google search.

It was a bit of a drive from where I live, but so worth it.

The waiter who took my order made sure to get everything perfect for us, and even asked me what spice level I liked. When I told him I have the tummy of a toddler who can't handle spice well, he assured me my food would be good for me. I got the mixed vegetable curry, and it was absolutely delicious. I also HIGHLY recommend the veg pakoora and Tandoori mixed grill.

Took the food to go, but the restaurant looked very clean and inviting.

I love that I have a new found favorite Indian restaurant to get my curry and pakoora fix. And the naan.. oh god was it good!

Thank you for a delicious meal with great portions and prices. Excited that I have leftovers!

Worth the hour drive it took to get there! Will definitely be back!!

We have been waiting to try this place for 2 years and finally got around to doing so. This place does not disappoint. The best samosas I have ever had. The Indo-Chinese part of the menu was what I ordered. The chicken in the dish was so tender and the sauce was perfect. We also had the Tandorri chicken, which was delicious. They gave us a huge serving of rice to go with our entrees. Will definitely return to try other items on this huge menu.

This was our second time visiting this restaurant, and both times we had a terrible experience with the service. The older gentleman taking orders told us, "I'm only taking your order once, and you have to order now because we're closing our kitchen." It was 7:50 PM, and the restaurant closes at 9:00 PM.

We were barely given any time—maybe two minutes at best—to look over the menu. When I asked for a couple more minutes, he flat-out refused, insisting that he was taking the order right now.

So, we quickly ordered a starter and two main courses. While the food tasted good, we had to wait nearly 45 minutes, and our order wasn’t served until 8:40 PM. To make things worse, the starter and main courses arrived almost at the same time, just a couple of minutes apart.

What frustrated us the most was seeing them take dessert orders from other tables at 8:45 PM—long after they rushed us to order.

The food was good, the mango lassi was super sour (mango flavor was not there looks like they blended a lot of yogurt)
but the service was terrible. Since this happened both times we visited, we won’t be going back.

Nice restaurant. Food was really nice. Atmosphere of the restaurant is well maintained. We ordered takeout. Potion size was well above expectations. We tried Goat Biryani, garlic nun, chicken butter masala. Goat biryani is enough for more than 2 persons. Garlic nun was fresh and soft. Butter chicken was also good. Will visit again and that time surely try for dine in.

I unfortunately did not get a chance to try the food. Server’s smile wiped away after seeing me and alerted me that the buffet was not available after seeing me by myself. Threw the menu on the table. I sat down for a moment, something didn’t seem right so I left.

I had the chilli panner appetizer, malai kofta with onion kulcha and fried rice. The appetizer had too much ketchup and was very tangy. The malai kofta was good. Fried rice was a mix of regular and Schezwan fried rice - I was not a fan. Kulcha was phenomenal.

Large portions, friendly staff.
