Went there yesterday and had the chicken korma heat level 3 with an onion kulcha and it was amazing. I cannot wait to go back to this place. The service was top notch. I was here with 5 other people, all with different menu items and everyone had a great experience.

Food is always great at Saffron. We were just disappointed the waitress didn't ask if we wanted a 2nd drink before the bar closed at 2:15 for the break between lunch and dinner. When we asked for a 2nd drink it was too late. Bar was already closed.

If you're seeking authentic Indian cuisine in Virginia Beach, Saffron Indian Bistro in the Town Center is a standout. This restaurant offers a blend of traditional flavors and modern ambiance. Saffron's menu features a variety of dishes that cater to diverse palates. My favorites were the Chili Chicken, Dal Makhani, Methi Chicken, Chicken Kebab twists, and Gobi Manchurian. But the naan... so buttery and soft, we had 3 different versions and they were all so amazing....
