Saffron Patch - Authentic Indian Restaurant in South Philly

Probably South Philly's best Indian spot, I always go for the Chana masala.

Got takeout here and it was delicious! The garlic chili naan was so good. Only downside is the prices are pretty high for such small portions.

My kids live near this Indian restaurant, and so before Thanksgiving day, we went for dinner.
we ordered, Salmon Tika masala
Masala, Shrimp Saguala, Sagg Paner, Lamb Korma, chicken vindaloo, and a side of garlic naan for all of us to share.
The food was very fresh, and we ordered all medium level spice,
the food came out with a large bowl of basmati rice. My favorite items were the Lamb Korma and the chicken vindaloo.
the Salmon TIka masala I did not love. but loved the Tika Masala sauce.
the saag paner was just ok.
Small place with a few chairs for tables. Service was provided by a young man who was probably a family member, Black large dishes to at off of but the utensils were plastic packed silverwareish.

Extremely inconsistent, their delivery driver steals food and they have now started giving me half sized portions when I called about the stolen food. Your typical scammers.

Sometimes, when the food is good there’s not much to say. It was really good food!! Fresh! The perfect spice level. Super kind waiter, even turned down the bright lighting when we asked. Very nicely priced for the quality too.

We ordered Chicken Tikka Masala (good), Garlic Naan (good but only one piece split in half for $5), Gobhi Aloo (good), Saag Paneer (very good), and Samosa Chaat (very good). Would eat here again but unfortunately the rice was disappointing. Most other places I’ve been to offer a bit more naan than that for $5 and have rice so good I’ve enjoyed it by itself.

This is my favorite Indian place in the city! They have great food and truly take care of their customers. It is owned by a very kind family, do a good job to make sure that they’re taken care of. Also, BEST Chicken Tikka Masala in the city.

I think this changed chefs. The food is passable as Indian food, but it lacks heart and taste. The samosa had the thickest skin, chewy and tasteless filling, the papadums were cold and we were the only table in the establishment, they had no silverware when dining indoors, the server looked annoyed with us, and I served the table. The lam roganjosh was spicy but thrown together, the tandoori platter seemed to have been heated up not freshly cooked. It is sad that a restaurant that had great service and splendid food has become this. There are better Indian places.

Delicious food on time Delivery good behavior overall nice

The place didn’t even look open when I came to pickup my food. I was hoping for more. The samosa had broke the seal and literally burned my tongue with hot oil. :-(. The chicken tika was ok but not memorable, def overcooked.
