The food is good, staff is polite and place is clean. Been ordering from this place for a long time and never been disappointed. Biryani, paneer tikka, karahi chicken are good. Samosa is also a must try. They are prompt on take out orders. There is ample parking outside and place is handicap accessible.

Came by for the first time and the food is great! The Naan is prefect. The portions are very generous and the Mango drink is so tasty. Service was excellent, even if you dine alone. I'll definitely be coming back.

Ordered delivery and loved both dishes I ordered! Good portions too! A week later a friend visited and we got take out. It was so good I went back later in the day and got the same thing she ordered. This place is too close to my house. It's so good, it's definitely a problem.Vegetarian options: Eggplant is amazing! So is Lamb Biryani.

This place is incredibly good! 5 stars in not enough. Clean, fast service and really friendly staff. The food was so so good and can’t wait to be back again. Everything is fresh and served hot. The people who are working were extremely friendly with our child and gave her ( 2 cups of the mango drink) highly highly recommend. ( DELICIOUS food and AFFORDABLE)Vegetarian options: Paneeer cheese options and lentils. The bread was amazingly deliciousKid-friendliness: Photo attached mango drink that was given to my child for free.Parking: Easy to park! Right in front of the store.

The Chana masala with that fry bread is everything! But no bad dishes on the buffet.

Overall the Buffet was very good. A very good selection of items. First time here to try the food and buffet. Service was good, folks are friendly. There was a good amount of people coming in for lunch. The place appears to be popular. The strip mall that the restaurant and other businesses sit in is in a weird location. This looks like an old location. Towing signs are all over with a tow truck sitting and waiting to tow people who go over the time limit. Looks like an hour is a limit. I will have to come back to try additional items.Vegetarian options: Variety of vegetarian optionsParking: 1 hour parking with tow truck enforcement

WHAT happened to the Butter Chicken?? 5 stars because this is by far the best Indian food my palette has consumed - and the Butter Chicken is one of my favorite dishes from anywhere, ever! I enjoy every bit of that sauce so much it mine as well be a beverage. However , I ordered just last night and the sauce was 180 difference- the magic sweet was gone completely- I could only eat one bite. Writing this in hopes it was a mistake of spices and the OG recipe comes back!

I love this restaurant. I've been a couple of times with my coworkers and have never been disappointed by the lunch buffet. So when I wasn't feeling too good but needed to eat something I went in to get some plain rice and some naan (yum). They easily could have charged me the full buffet price but they only charged me $5 total for the rice and naan. They were so nice about it, wouldn't even let me tip! I plan to go back for the full buffet soon,

I ordered paneer kadhai and Bhindi kadhai. I should've realized perhaps these two dishes had the same gravy. Bhindi tasted very bad with all the gravy and the dishes were way too oily with a thick oil layer floating over both dishes. The lachcha paratha and naan were ok.

I have nothing but good things to say about this restaurant and their authentic Indian cuisine. However if I could give this PLAZA where this restaurant is zero stars I would. Although the individual businesses are great and some of my favorites in the area, the management of this plaza has serious issues and has turned a blind eye to not only customer but business owner complaints. They have been supporting Pete’s towing company in unlawfully towing customer cars that are parked in the front lot. There are several contradictory signs in the lot and the towing operators target customers with no evidence. I myself parked and saw my car towed within 10 minutes of being at the retail plaza. I can only imagine that a property management company in cahoots with an unlawful and crooked towing company also practices bad business. This is not only disappointing as a customer but to the small business owner tenants who have to deal with irritated customers and the resulting negative impact on their businesses. BEWARE until this problem is resolved. I love supporting these businesses but think they deserve more respect than they are being shown as tenants
WONDERFUL experience with Saffron Indian Cuisine tonight. I was meant to pick up my order at 9:30 and got held up on an important call until 10, when the restaurant closes. I called at 10:03 to see if it was still possible to pick up my order, and they stayed until 10:10 when I could get there to retrieve my food. They were so nice both on the phone and in person, and to top it off the food is incredible. I got the butter chicken and garlic naan, and both were delicious.

The food and the service were good to very good. I hope the kitchen wasn't as dirty as the dining room (tables, chairs, floor walls, light switches), utensils and napkins (including flies) and unserviced bathroom.

I eat here every single day during their lunch buffet special. The staff goes over and beyond to meet my needs. The tandoori chicken and goat curry are amazing. If you're looking for a fairly priced all you can eat meal in the falls church area I'd highly recommend this place to anyone. Thank you guys! You are all awesome!

I've ordered take out a few times and loved the dishes. Everything we tried was delicious and the level of spice we requested. I especially liked the meen moilee. I have to come back for buffet one day.

Yum! I liked almost everything at the buffet. Even the Chicken Tikka which I usually pass over but decided to try. I did not love the Butter Chicken which surprised me because everything else was really good. (I have a theory that if a restaurant can't do a good Butter Chicken or Tikka Masala then they aren't worth my time.) So I'm glad I tried their other dishes in the buffet first. My favourite was probably the vegetable korma. If you're in the area, give them a try!
