I can’t rate the service or atmosphere because I ordered take out, but I can undoubtedly say I’m never ordering from this place again. I ordered 3 meals and 2 appetizers and the bill was $150. I don’t mind paying for good food, but the food was terrible and the portion was so little, it might as well have been called an appetizer. I got the shrimp which was supposed to come with risotto cakes, instead they gave me about 3 tablespoons worth of rice. I also got the salmon which was supposed to come with gnocchi and spinach. Instead it came with mashed potatoes instead of gnocchi. Again, it was about 3 tablespoons worth of mash potatoes and about 1 tablespoon of spinach and the salmon was really dry. I also got the sliders which was about a burger 1 inch in diameter and of the 3 they gave me, only 1 of them had a pickle in it and it was supposed to have aioli sauce in it but didn’t. The only thing that was even passable as decent food was the yucca fries and meat paella. But for $150 and the portion they gave? GTFO! First and last time trying this place.

The food quantity is very low. We order Mashroom Galouti Kabab. They gave 2 piece of puffed mushrooms, which is not enough for even one person appetizer. Another one - Avocado Raita in small shallow bowl feels like why I even ordered this item. One more faux - The Kullar Chai does not come in real Kullar. It is in regular brown cup. Overall you leave the place hungry after paying fat bill.

Great food, great drinks. The staff is always super friendly, and attentive. I order something different every time I come here and have never been disappointed.The room can be a quite loud when it's busy which is not due rowdy customers, but rather the lack of acoustic treatment in the room.I would highly recommend this place if you're in the area.

Nothing about this place stands out, just kind of bland experience and taste.

Mediterranean restaurant is a great place for those who love Mediterranean cuisine. The atmosphere of the establishment has a pleasant pastime, and the menu impresses with its variety. I would especially like to note the quality of the products and the skill of the chefs. I recommend trying grilled seafood - they are especially good here. The service is also at a high level - the staff is polite and helpful. In general, the Mediterranean restaurant leaves a pleasant impression and deserves high praise.

While being seated there were two employees arguing with each other which felt inapproppriate and made us wonder what was going on. This happened right at our table. Overall we enjoyed the food. Had to ask for water refill but didn't receive it. Had to ask again.

Saffron is a local gem. If you are in the area please stop by. I worked here for a couple years once a upon a time when they first opened and have been coming back and having family events here ever since.The food is always delicious and the atmosphere is always welcoming. Owner and chef Herbert Duarte has real talent and takes pride in his food and restaurant. Whether you are looking for a romantic evening with your partner, celebrating a special occasion, or just want to hit happy hour at the bar 3-7 this is the place for you.Make sure to try the grilled thai wings, spicy garlic shrimp, and fried mozzarella tapas. If you are really hungry the braised short ribs and Paellas are amazing. Lastly make sure to try their sangria (berry or white peach both delish) and for dessert you must have the bread pudding! Look fwd to many more meals here.
