Saffron The Indian Kitchen

Saffron is a great place to grab restaurant-quality Indian food that's ready in just a few minutes! The staff here are super efficient and friendly, and the food has always been excellent. I've gotten the chicken korma bowl several times, which is flavorful and authentic. Their naan is also great, as are the vegetarian samosas! Saffron is located in Assembly Hall, which has a huge variety of great places to eat. Go check it out!

Pretty good food! I ordered delivery this time and everything came safe and sound. Mango lassi: 4.5/5. Great flavor. Delicious. Veggie samosas: 4/5. Good samosas. Nice spice. I was looking for a little more complexity of flavor but it does the job. Tikka masala: 4.5/5. Very tasty. Creamy and flavorful. Nice big chunks of chicken. I actually wish they were a bit smaller for ease of eating but doesn't take away from the flavor of course. Naan: 3.5/5. I like my naan a fluffier but it was okay. It wasn't advertised as garlic naan but no complaints cuz that's what I wanted. I assume it would be tastier fresh so give it a shot yourself!Overall, probably the best Indian food I've had in Nashville since moving here. Not many options on the menu, this is definitely a smaller, food court spot, but what they have is good! I would for sure eat here again!

Stumbled upon this restaurant while visiting the local food hall and was instantly pulled in by the delicious aromas of the food here! Staff was very friendly and gave good suggestions for someone me like me who has never eaten Indian cuisine before. I had the chicken tikka masala with basmati rice and garlic naan. The chicken was plentiful and the sauce was really robust, paring nicely with the naan bread. the bread was made fresh and my food stayed hot in its container while I waited on my boyfriend to get his from another restaurant in the food hall. This restaurant will definitely be my go to if I'm ever in Assembly Food Hall again!

After browsing Assembly Food Hall, my boyfriend and I landed on Saffron and we're so glad we ate here! I was pleasantly surprised by the large portion sizes. The Tikka Masala bowl was SO good! Chicken pieces were a little big, but it was such a good dish. The garlic naan was absolutely stellar. My boyfriend got a salad and chicken samosas. The samosas was a little on the spicy side for me, and I honestly didn't get to the salad since I was honed in on my bowl. Absolutely worth the stop at Assembly Food Hall!

I'm surprised this place didn't have a line.Food's really good. And price was fair.They can also adjust spice levels for their that are more sensitive, which I don't see often in Indian cuisine

* Food Court Style Dining *The Assembly is a cool place to grab a quick lunch. You have options from Nashville Chicken to Indian to Burgers and more.We stopped by Saffron and ordered:- Rice Bowl with Chicken and Tikka Masala sauce: good rice to sauce to meat ratio. The Tikka sauce was buttery and creamy. Milder in flavor compared to other Indian restaurants I am more familiar with. Still a good tasting dish. Recommend.- Cauliflower Manchurian: the dish looked so vibrant when it was served but lacked So. Much. Flavor! I was incredibly disappointed. The cauliflower was really crunchy but the sauce left so much to be desired. If you are familiar, this dish should have a sweet soy flavor with notes of ginger. I picked none of this up. Do Not Recommend This Dish.

The food is AMAZING! The service is great! Wonderful party like happy atmosphere! Live music on two stages! Bars nearby and desserts too.

My husband ordered the poutine. There was nothing under the ingredients for that dish that states that there are cashews in it. I am severely allergic to nuts. I had a bite of his dish as both of us thought that it was nut free and I reacted to it. I went back and asked what was in the fish and that is when I learned about the cashews. They showed me at the bottom right of the menu it states that there could be allergens. A disclaimer that their might be allergens vs are is very different. If you have food all go I would stay away. I was very disappointed.They told me that they would update their menu to be clear. I hope that they do!

This is a poor representation of Indian food. Not only is it greasy and heavy, the chicken is dry. I had the butter chicken poutine. This nearly killed my wife since it has nuts that are not listed anywhere on the ingredients. Other dishes mention nuts this one does not. When o asked the 5 men working there, they showed little concern or care. They pointed to a fine print on the sign that says Food May Contain the lists ten different things. Avoid this place, there are so many better options at the food hall that value their clients and make better food.

Tried their potato samosa. Worst i have had in memory. Would not recommend anything else. Seems a quick low quality take on common indian favorites in the us.
