" I have heard a lot about Saffron and was excited to finally dine there. The food was tasty, particularly the butter chicken which was creamy and flavorful. However, I felt the portion sizes were a bit small for what we paid. On the brighter side, the atmosphere was pleasant and upscale, which made for a nice evening overall. I would recommend checking it out, just be ready to spend a little more. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time experiencing Indian cuisine, and I have to say Saffron set a high standard! Every dish we tried was so flavorful and enjoyable, making it a memorable evening. The garlic naan was light and fluffy, complementing our dishes perfectly. The restaurant itself has a beautiful ambiance, making it ideal for a date night. Although it can get a bit pricey, the food quality and service make it worthwhile. I can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had high expectations for Saffron given its reputation, and we were not disappointed. The combination of flavors in the lamb korma was delightful, and the naan was perfectly baked and flavorful. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we were pleased with our meal, which wrapped the night up nicely. The only issue we encountered was the pricing, which felt on the higher side. Regardless, I look forward to returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an enjoyable dinner at Saffron; the atmosphere was lively and trendy! The staff was friendly and attentive, though it took a little longer for our drinks to arrive. I was really excited about the butter chicken, which was creamy and perfectly spiced. However, I found the portion sizes a bit small for the price. While I appreciated the upscale setting, it felt slightly overpriced for what you get. I may return, but I’ll keep my expectations in check about the portions. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so many wonderful things about Saffron, my wife and I decided to try it out for our anniversary. The service was incredibly warm and inviting, and the dishes were nothing short of spectacular. The highlight was definitely the lamb biryani; it was fragrant and flavorful. While the prices are higher than average, it’s worth it for a special occasion. We made a great choice dining here! " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment we walked into Saffron, the ambiance captivated us. The beautiful decor paired with an exceptional staff made for an unforgettable evening. I ordered the lamb curry, which was incredibly rich and flavorful, while my partner enjoyed the chicken tikka that melted in her mouth. The dishes were artfully presented, and you can tell they put effort into every detail. We also tried the saffron-infused cocktails, which were delicious and unique! I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to explore modern Indian cuisine. Can’t wait to return for the tasting menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our experience at Saffron was really enjoyable! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome. The cocktails we tried were so original; I especially loved the chai-infused drink. For dinner, I had the tandoori salmon, which was cooked to perfection, while my friend chose the vegetarian samosa sample platter. Every bite was full of flavor! I do wish the portions were a bit bigger, given the price tag, but the quality of the food is certainly commendable. Will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)
