Description

Saffron Indian Restaurant in Innerleithen is a delightful gem that offers a unique dining experience despite its compact size, seating only 14 guests. Patrons have praised the attentive and friendly service, savoring flavorful dishes such as the chicken pakora and expertly prepared mains. While some diners noted inconsistencies in spice levels that detracted from the overall enjoyment, most reviews highlight the delicious flavors and quality of the food. The restaurant's cozy atmosphere is sometimes disrupted by takeaway orders, but the elegant presentation and thorough attention to detail make Saffron a must-visit for Indian cuisine enthusiasts. Reservations are recommended.

I live in town and have used Saffron's take-away on many occasions. With the pressures of keeping a business going under this awful pandemic, they have managed to continue to serve up delicious meals which, at the time of writing, are for take-away only. The food is excellent, service is great and we are so lucky to have this business on our doorstep.Thank you Belayet and the team, I hope you continue to receive the deserved support from the wider community and look forward to when you open your doors again, hopefully soon.

Great little restaurant/take away with excellent service and 1st class food. We managed to get a booking for Christmas Eve, before latest 'lockdown ' and were not disappointed. Need to go more often.

The wife and I stayed overnight in the town and it was the guest house that recommended we try SaffronI’ve eaten Atul Kochhar’s Michelin star curry at Benares and Tamarind in London and I enjoyed this more. I even ate the lime pickle which was the nicest I’ve ever tasted.Beautifully turned out restaurant, friendly, professional service and incredibly delicious food. It’s sad that we live 252.4 miles south of here.
