Today was our visit here...and I can tell you it won't be our last. The samosas...so good! Our waitress was super helpful and we ended up with 3 amazing dishes. I think Lamb Rogan Josh is my new favorite. Do yourself a favor and eat here tonight!

Quite good Indian food. We shared two plates and the sauces were fantastic and seemed to have good spice punch. Naan was nicely thin and perfectly cooked. The chardonnay they carry by the glass could be switched to a smooth buttery one for a greatupgrade.

Host was very accommodating even though we got there close to the closing. Food quality was great. I am very skeptical about Indian restaurants as most places claim to serve authentic recipes but all I find is a overly spiced fusion food in majority.Good Indian food does not equate to spicy food rather a perfect blend and balance of spice and flavor. Looking forward to tryingtheir other items on the menu. Paneer tikka was well marinated very moist and flavorful.

Went for lunch. They no longer have a buffet. The menu is extensive. The food was hot, spicy and quite delicious. You can customize your spice range, we opted for the sweat-inducing 8/10. If you like spicy hot, try the jalapeno naan.

The food is terrific and the staff are very friendly and helpful. We’ve only been to Saffron a few times but it’s quickly becoming our favorite Indian restaurant in Austin.
