    Saffron is definitely an Indian Bistro. I wanted to take my son, who was visiting from the D.C. area, and celebrating his birthday to a unique Indian restaurant. Saffron fit the bill. The real problem was me because I could not eat spicy, any, spicy foods. But Saffron came to the rescue sending one of their more experienced waiters over to our table to explain the dishes I might be able to enjoy and why. He kindly and patiently named the different ingredients in each. By working with us, I decided on the chicken in a cream sauce that was outstanding,and I was able to tolerate the spices this dish contained. In the future, when my son visits, we can both enjoy a wonderful evening at Saffrons. Thank you again. GGW

    This was the first time that we had visited Saffron although several of our friends had recommended the food. As we come from UK, Indian food is a great favorite. The first impression was not great, although the main dining room was fine, and the service was a little slow, even though the place was not full. Unfortunately, the menus had large pieces of food on them and there was no bartender to make non-alcoholic drinks for my daughter....so not a great start to the meal. When the food did arrive the portions were excellent and the food tasted great.....if only the restaurant was as good as the food!

    Good food, but [inexplicably] not as good as their sister restaurant, Monsoon. They do have a lunch buffet, which Monsoon doesn't have. Their service leaves a lot to be desired.

    service was extremely slow. It was a bit busy for a Saturday night. The restaurant should be prepared to accommodate larger crowds on the weekends and have more staff. We waited over an hour and a half for our food.

    We dined with a large group and the service was decent. Though my glass of wine was cleared from the table before I finished it, I still enjoyed the dining experience. The food was fantastic and very flavorful. I would absolutely go back again!

    Seated for 10 minutes before any service at our table of 3 on a January Monday 6pm, 38 minutes for our order to get to the table with no staff attention at our table during the wait-very poor service-the food itself was very good and I would enjoy eating it again but only as a carry out order. There were only a handful of other tables to be waited on and yet there were 4 visible staff, no excuse for such poor service.
