Saffron Patch - Authentic Indian Restaurant in South Philly

Found this gem while visiting Philadelphia! It may sound cliche, but we knew we were in the right place when we walked in and there was a full table of people of Indian ethnicity. The food was delicious and authentic. Plus the portion sizes were huge. We will definitely visit here again!

This was our third time coming in two weeks. The food is absolutely full of flavors. The lamb curry is 5/5. We also had the lamb byriani which was also 5/5. The garlic and cheese naan is my favorite one on the menu. Last but not least the place is super clean and the staff was so attentive and nice. Thank you and see you soon 🙃

This was me and my husband’s first time ordering here on a Monday night right before they were about to close, and we absolutely loved it. The customer service was amazing, we came in around 10:18 and they close at 10:30 but still serviced us and were very patient about it. We ordered the Chicken Tandoori and Salmon Curry w/Garlic Naan and two salads. Everything was good. We could’ve did without the salads, other than that it was a 10/10.

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

Very good food and service! And they do delivery too, so awesome and recommended! 🔥

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.
