We loved the dishes at Saffron. We ordered Chicken Sag, Lamb Vindaloo, and the Dal. The dishes were large and very tasty. We also had 2 garlic naans. And they were kind enough to provide extra rice to have with the leftovers. Casual but comfortable atmosphere. We didn't get any chutney sides that they said were provied. I think we missed asking for them. That would have been even better!

I've been going to Saffrons for years and it is always a hit for my family. The food is great, staff is friendly, and it has a great atmosphere for date nights. My favorite to order is samosas, garlic naan, chicken Tikka masala and the carrot halwa.

We came across Saffron in an Axios Charlotte article on the 11 must-try Indian restaurants in the area. The article said that the Mahajara dinner for 2 was a great deal, and it was nice to enjoy this meal out on their patio. That sounded great to us, but our experience ended up being quite different from what we'd expected. Upon arrival, we asked to sit on the patio, but they explained that they were short-staffed so weren't serving out there. The inside it still nice, and it wasn't crowded at all on a Tuesday evening. I then inquired about the Maharaja dinner for two, and he explained that the restaurant hasn't offered that deal for years. Okay, good to know. We then perused the menu and ordered two bottled Indian beers (Kingfisher and Maharaja), Kadai Lamb, Yellow Dal, and Garlic Naan. They asked what level (1-10) spiciness we wanted, and we said 3/4. This was plenty spicy for us! The lamb was very tender, and the garlic naan was potent. Yellow dal was fine but a little watery for my taste. Both of the entrees come with rice, so this was a good amount of food for us, and we took home leftovers. Overall the quality of the food was very good, and it came out super fast. We saw the buffet off to the side of the restaurant and asked the server if they do a lunch buffet, but he explained that they haven't brought it back since COVID due to the offices close by not being fully re-opened. He hopes they can start it back up in 2024.

Delicious food and excellent ambience. It's a white napkin, silver serving platters type of place but with generational, tried and true recipes. Service can be very slow, and it is disappointing the lunch buffet has closed down.

Food: excellent. Ordered samosas, chicken curry (spice =7) and pagodas. If you like spicy don't be fearful, I wish that I would have chosen a ten for spice level. It was delicious. The pagodas were delicious and I would definitely order them again. Service: attentive. Kept up on our drink refills. Ambiance: nice and welcoming. I would definitely go back!

*****There is no BUFFET at this awesome establishment any longer; however, THE food, management/staff, atmosphere and total experience was amazing. We will most definitely be coming back to give Saffron our business! YOU won't be disappointed, I guarantee it... Pricing is perfectly priced for portion provided and the quality, flavors and spices are precisely on target. We are pleased we made the decision to have lunch here today. Five Stars for certain!!!!! Yummy... Enjoy!!

I ordered to go delivery through a meal delivery service and this transported pretty well. We ordered two orders of the chicken tikka masala, levels 4 and 5 for spiciness. Level 4 was recommended on the ordering app and was advertised as mild to medium and 5 was medium. There was virtually no difference between the two flavors and they were beyond spicy. The flavor was great, sauce was creamy, the rice perfect so I 10/10 will order this again but I will probably tone it down to a 2. I can handle some heat but this was so too spicy for my liking and I was sweating. I'd like to think there was a mix up in the levels added and I'm not that big of a whimp but it was probably me just being a big whimp! The good news is the portions were large so I was able to save some for leftovers. When I reheated the next day, some of the spice disappeared and I was able to eat it no problem! I definitely recommend the garlic naan. It's buttery, garlic galore and flaky. My perfect bite with this meal is getting a piece of naan, a piece of chicken and some sauce and pop it right in! Amazing! I look forward to trying this again!

We ordered a takeout order and were very underwhelmed with portions. The amount of food was so small I would say we probably received about half the portions we would have in restaurant.
