Me and my boyfriend live in Arysley so we have been wanting to try this place for awhile as we love Indian food but were discouraged by some of the reviews. We got take out so can't say too much about service/atmosphere but the food was really good. Only complaint is the portion sizes are small. Didn't have enough rice and usually when we get take out we have leftovers but ate all ours in one night. So I would say the food is good but definitely pricey!!

Saffron catered our wedding this past weekend and our entire experience with them was wonderful! We got so many compliments from our guests on the food. Additionally they provided such amazing service during our wedding and have been so kind in our interactions. Sunil was very honest about the quantity of food we needed and even suggested cutting down on one of our selections. We were truly blown away by this level of kindness and honesty from a business.

Visited to this place recently with my office colleague. Here are my findings:
- everything is little pricey
- Chicken manchurian was stale - hard and old
- Gulab Jamun was pathetic- better to buy haldiram one
- Mango lassi was good.
- place is good but ambiance is not that great.
- quality matters- plz improve
- I will update my review after my next visit.
