" I had a delightful experience at Saffron Spice! The food is authentic and full of flavor, resembling what I’ve tasted in India. The Lamb Vindaloo was spicy and tangy; it’s definitely a dish I’ll come back for. The only downsides were the simple atmosphere and the wait for food during peak dinner times. However, the quality of food makes it worth the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn't impressed with Saffron Spice. The food was lukewarm when I received it, and the curry lacked the depth of flavor I was anticipating. Though the staff was polite, I don’t think I would come back for the price point. I had the Chicken Biryani and expected something aromatic, but it felt a bit dry and bland. The naan was too doughy for my liking. I might give it another chance, but not anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered Chicken Tikka Masala and Garlic Naan at Saffron Spice, but was not impressed. The tikka was overly sweet and lacked the kick I was expecting. I love my Indian food on the spicier side, and this just didn't cut it. The naan was yummy but I needed a more satisfying and flavorful curry to pair it with. Disappointing overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem Saffron Spice is! I stumbled in after a long day and decided to try the Goat Curry and it was absolutely phenomenal. The meat was tender and fell right off the bone, and the sauce was rich and thick. I also paired it with garlic naan, which complemented the meal perfectly. The only downside was the wait, as they seemed a bit understaffed that day, but it was worth every minute! If you can deal with a small and simple layout, the food is definitely worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Saffron Spice has been a game changer for Indian food for me. The flavors in their curries are rich and deep, with a multitude of spices that make each dish unique. I particularly enjoyed their Butter Chicken that was creamy without being overwhelming. Though the dining area is modest, the atmosphere feels warm and inviting. I'd love to try out their full menu soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Food was decent but I wouldn't call it authentic. The Chicken Curry was a bit bland and lacked in spices. However, the service was friendly and prompt, and the ambiance was quite relaxed. I felt the prices were a bit on the higher side considering the quality. Overall, just an okay restaurant for Indian food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my meal at Saffron Spice! I ordered the Prawn Curry and it was fantastic! The prawns were cooked to perfection and the spices were incredibly vibrant. The service was also exceptional; the staff were friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Definitely a place I’ll visit again, especially for takeout! " (*Curated Review*)
