Stopped in for lunch and we were not disappointed. Dishes were perfectly spiced, fresh, and well made. Many vegetarian and gluten free options to choose from. Service was amazing, and we enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere.
We order soya chaap, veg-noodles and kadai paneer with garlic naan Saffron delivers an authentic Indian dining experience with a focus on quality ingredients and vibrant flavors. Whether you’re a seasoned fan of Indian cuisine or a curious newcomer, this restaurant is a must-visit.
Picked up VEG. JALFREZI. Absolutely tasteless and feels like it was made in a dorm. All the frozen veggies and no gravy at all. $17 to waste.
This little hidden gem has a welcoming and cozy atmosphere. The staff are lovely, and the food is delicious and authentic. To celebrate Diwali, my son and I ordered tandoori chicken, Karachi paneer, chicken tikka masala, veggie samosas, and masala chai, and they gave us nan and rice to accompany our meals. We loved every bit of it all. The tandoori was the best we’ve had in Ontario, and the Karachi paneer was out of this world…the nan and samosas were so fresh and tasty! My son loved his tikka masala too, and the chai was so much nicer than the ones we’ve had elsewhere. Food tasted like home-made.
Myself, my husband, and our 10 year old had lunch at the Saffron recently. We all enjoyed everything we ordered! Really delicious! The naan was the best we had ever tried! We will return!
We had the Thali. An Indian Thali is a complete meal with rice, bread, vegetables, lentils, and a sweet dish. All are served on a single platter. You can choose a chicken/goat/beef/lamb curry. Everything was very delicious. I had the goat and it was superb. The staff was very friendly. We will be back.
Ordered catering for a small event in Guelph. Food was tasty and Service was outstanding. We got chaffing dishes so food was hot and everyone enjoyed it. Would highly recommend Inder and his team. Thanks for making our event shine with your yummy food.
The lunch special is a very good deal. Very delicious butter chicken and naan, my favourite in Guelph. I’ve also dined in. This place has a lot of potential if they renovated it a bit inside to have a nicer atmosphere but the food was so delicious. Update: the lamb curry is delicious as well, and they have made some changes inside the restaurant to make it more aesthetically pleasing👍🏼
The food and service were amazing. Highly recommended!
Best food and staff.
Asked for a normal chicken curry but I m pretty sure I got the chicken vindaloo instead cause the curry was wayy too tangy ,which I m not a fan of at all , disappointed in the delivery of food . Please give customers what they specifically order , if you don t have it , please let them know ! naan was really nice though and person who helped was really nice and sweet .
The owner was absolutely amazing! The food was fresh and delicious. I ate Daal Makhni and Kadahi Paneer. I cant wait to come back and try more dishes. Keep up the great work!
Everything was absolutely delicious! We came from the GTA and have been in search for an authentic Indian restaurant- this is our new go-to!
Absolutely delicious. We were pleasantly surprised by this small little restaurant. Visited Guelph from the east end of the GTA to visit my son in university. We chose this restaurant for lunch and we will definitely be coming back! Delicious food and friendly owners. Many meat and vegetarian options.
Amazing quality, very tasty food, wonderful service, love it
Delicious food love that it s homemade yoghurt and paneer, no MSG. Friendly staff and Indian music to go with the yummy Indian food.
Hands down the best Indian food in Guelph!! Huge portions and very reasonably priced.
Tried this place for the first time this weekend. We ordered veg pakora, kofta and butter chicken. Everything was so delicious. The service was amazing and staff made sure everything was perfect. Thanks so much and we will definetely be back

Veg pakode tastes great
The food was really good we looked it
The food is amazing and they really go out of their way to show kindness. Spectacular people, amazing cuisine.
I attended a party where The Saffron Indian Restaurant catered, and the food was amazing! The flavors were authentic, and the dishes were perfectly cooked. Everyone loved the variety, and the portion sizes were just right for the number of guests. I would definitely consider them for future events!
I recently used The Saffron Indian Restaurant for catering at my party, and I was very pleased with their service. The food was delicious and fresh, meeting the expectations of both me and my guests. The quantity they provided was perfect and exactly in line with the number of people I requested. Everything was well-organized, and their service contributed to making my event a success. I would definitely recommend them for any occasion!
Instead of a traditional Thanksgiving, my friends and I had a curry night. The saffron curry is exceptional. We had nine different dishes and they were all excellent. The catering was super. The food was prepared on time and nice and hot. Couldn t ask for anything better.
Great experience..the food was amazing.
This location has an atmosphere similar to a mom and pop shop. A quick meal and get out. But the server and the chef were well mannered and informative for what was Gluten free. I would come back again. Food was delightful.
The best restaurant in this area...veg biryani and paneer tikka masala were so delicious...excellent customer service
Excellent Indian food in the Guelph area. We ordered 20 people catering for our picnic and food was delicious. Food was all ready on time for pick up. Service was great and owner is super nice and friendly. I will use again for our future catering needs. I would definitely recommend to all this restaurant to cater and dine in. Vegetarian options: All our food were vegetarian and preparation were very good.
The food was amazing! Wish our city had a restaurant like this :)
We had lunch special thali and it was amazing with flavour full meal.. especially naan and karahi paneer was so delicious. Vegetarian options: Lots of options for vegetarian
My Son and I had the chicken curry lunch special for $11.99. Everything was delicious, the flavors are spot on and service is spectacular. I have been looking for a new goto Indian cuisine restaurant and this is it.
Amazing food and so friendly.
The Food was really tasty & also the service was really good. Highly recommended.
Saffron is a fantastic place to enjoy Indian food. The dishes are full of rich, authentic flavors, and the service is warm and welcoming. It s a comfortable spot where you can relax and have a great meal. If you re in the mood for Indian cuisine, Saffron is definitely worth a visit!
Delicious food and great service.
First time. The food was excellent! We had a variety of dishes. Everything was delicious. Authentic Indian food.
Very good food, atmosphere and great service. Highly recommended
I had dinner over there, everything was so delicious. Definitely a recommendation for Indian food.
Great food and great service. Highly recommended.
I met up with a friend and we both enjoyed the food. The Naan was soft and delicious butter chicken amazing. Staff were very nice will be going again for sure.
Only regret is that we hadnt tried this place sooner! Wonderful food, very quick and friendly service. This restaurant is clearly family owned/run. They checked in on us often to make sure we were enjoying everything. Great portions and reasonable prices. 10/10 we will be back soon!
The service was amazing and the food was very tasty. Had some of the best service in all of Guelph.
My husband and I genuinely appreciate Saffron restaurant. The menu is excellent . It provides ample gluten free choices for my hubby. The naan is the best I have tasted. Frequently, we take friends visiting from out of town. They all want to take the restaurant home with them to their towns. The food is excellent. The menu provides great choices. The staff are friendly and ever so accommodating to us. The ambient sounds are of happy laughter and conversations. We simply love this restaurant and we recommend it highly. It gives Guelph a culinary glow. Dietary restrictions: Excellent for gluten free options. Parking: Lots of parking. The entire beer store parking lot.
We stopped in on our way through town today and were delighted with the service and the food. All four dishes we shared were perfect. We would return again for sure!
Bro Please don t call biryani that you serve as biryani. I m very sorry but it tasted like tomato rice with 4 chicken pieces. I m from Hyderabad and more than anything in this world, the biryani is close to my heart and it s an emotion for hyderbadi people. You guys are so awesome and I didn t want to give any bad reviews but I think I deserve to know this the truth.
I tryed butter chicken but it s not good honestly need lot of improvement .
Great food with excellent hospitality!! This is my go to Indian restaurant in Guelph for sure!!
They are very hospitable. It has become my to go place. Their food is also very delicious.
Owners are so nice and service is good too. Highly recommend.
Delicious food and very good customer service!!!
Amazing food, full of flavor and great portion sizes. Usually order Lamb Korma and had the best portion size of protein near double the amount as other comparable restaurants in town.
Very high quality, authentic dishes...
Really good food, large portions, friendly staff
Amazing food, friendly staff!
Best Indian food I ve ever had and the owner, Hinder, was very kind and attentive. Highly recommend the lamb Korma, paratha bread and the mango lassi was delicious. What are you waiting for?!
First and last order yesterday for early dinner. Two dishes ordered. One vegetarian. Frozen peas, carrots, corn and green beans in a sea of sauce. Plain, bland and unimpressed. Chicken dish, 7 cubes of chicken in sea of sauce. Rice was fine is the best I can say. Naan was a thin as paper and tasteless. Will not return. Miss the consistency and wonderful flavors of previous owners Bombay Kitchen.
Excellent food and fantastic service.
Our server was very attentive. Food came out fast and it was delicious. We had the lunch special, it was well priced.
One of the best tasting Indian food that you can get in Guelph. Quiet and calm and cosy place.
Food was delicious and service was great! Glad to have discovered this restaurant!
Food was good especially chat items was really good and service was awesome The lunch special deal was worth the money and quantity was way more for one Recommended dishes
Found a gem for Indian restaurant best food and atmosphere.
Got live catering for rakshabandhan for 85 ppl Loved the food and service. Affordable price. A must try.
The saffron Indian restaurant delivers a memorable dining experience with excellent food, great service, and a pleasant atmosphere. It s a place I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch meal.
I ordered Naan, Karahi Paneer, and Daal Makhni, and the food was absolutely amazing! Everything was flavorful and fresh. The customer service was also excellent very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend! Food
I cannot say enough about the food here. Best Daal curry I have ever had. The service is wonderful and it is clear they care about the food they serve. I have never been disappointed by any meal here.
Best Indian food in the Guelph area. We ordered 30 people catering and food was delicious. Food was all ready on time for pick up. Service was great, owner and all the employees are super nice and friendly. I would definitely recommend trying this restaurant to cater and dine in. Vegetarian options: We also got no onion garlic food, which was very delicious as well!
Food is well prepared and delicious. Good service also. Will come more often.
Booked live catering for night party food was delicious and they were very professional
Fast friendly delivery! Food was delicious!!
Friendly staff, excellent service, and delicious food.
Delicious food and amazing customer service!
We ordered take out for three people with four dishes. Food was fantastic and we had enough leftovers for a second meal. Very generous with their sauces and it kk comes with naan bread. Definitely going back
We got catering for Canada day this year and everyone loved the food. They have great service and staff.
Food was amazing as well as the customer service.
Great service and food.
Got catering for 200 people Best Indian Restaurant in Guelph. Loved their service they do provide on site chafing dishes and server too. 10/10 would recommend everyone to try they really improved their ambience as well Vibe is great.
Must try actually an Indian restaurant just like back home India.
Very good service and food owner is very Kind
Went for the lunch special on a weekday with our family. Weve also had their takeout previously. Friendly, fast service and very good food. Highly recommended.
Went to try out this place and found a gem! Food was delicious and the staff gave us excellent service. Would recommend this place for sure. Food
This place is cute and small. Serves delicious food. Their tandoori and Naan is the best in town. Especially the Naan. We just love it. Coming back again. If you love vegetarian food, they have loads of options too.
A lovely little place with delicious, reasonably priced food. Great portions and the curry comes with rice or naan, it s not an extra price. A cute dining room and very friendly server. Can t go wrong!
Good food friendly staff
It was a delight to cater my group for my son s first birthday with Saffron. The food was amazing and everyone one was pleased with the quality and taste. A must try for catering as well dine in. The best Indian food restaurant with authentic taste. Also the delivery was very timely.
I am sad writing this cause usually i enjoy their food. But todays chicken was disappointing. Does the chicken look like it was out of a tandoor? I spent half an hour on a hungry stomach to cook it in my oven. It wasnt tandoor charred, and looked like it was simply dipped in marinade and handed over. Food
Good to know by the onwer that they serve halal meat. Unfortunately nothing was mentioned on the website or update on google.
The food was great, along with the customer service
I ve been ordering takeout from the restaurant. From the inside, restaurant is small & beautiful. They provide consistent taste. They do provide complimentary naan/rice options which is great. However, there is always something to improve. As they use a bit extra oil/butter/cream, and samosa was below average.
HORRIBLE & UTTER DISGRACE IN NAME OF INDIAN FOOD.. SIMPLE WORDS AVOID IT.. DO NOT WASTE MONEY.. FATHERS DAY EVENING WAS RUINED WITH BAD FOOD.. THANKS TO SAFFRON INDIAN RESTAURANT.. DESERT FROM DIFFERENT PLACE SAVED US FROM TOTAL EMBARRASSMENT.. GUESTS WOULD BE CURSING US..
Best place to get Indian food in guelph!!
This food taste like homemade indian food. Perfect spices and very fresh. If you re around guelph and looking for an indian restaurant. This is the place!!
Orders here a few times now, everytime everything has been delicious! So fresh and flavourful, cant wait to order again!
I came here for lunch. I had the butter chicken lunch special. All of the dishes were delicious and the portions were generous for the price. The service was also good. The server was attentive and the chef also came out to check on everyones food. Definitely recommend.
We ordered food for a small gathering of 45 people. Tasty food Everyone loved it .
Perfect food and service Would visit again. Food
It was our first time there and even though the space was not that big, the food and service made up for it.
Amazing food which makes you Feel in the of .. Nice service and serving the plates faster than expected . Advise you to try the place. Food : 5/5
Tasty food.
We have been to Saffron several times now, and we just love it. The food is reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. We have loved every single thing we have ordered there, and they can adjust the spice/heat level to your liking. A couple of months ago, I brought a huge order of Saffron food to my book club, and it was such a hit that there was nothing left at the end of the night! The staff is friendly and eager to make your experience exceptional. And the restaurant keeps improving; they have upgraded the light fixtures so that the room now radiates a sense of cozy warmth. A wonderful gem in Guelph.
Its a little hole in the wall restaurant and thats ok. The mango chicken, beef curry, rice and naan bread was fantastic and the prices are reasonable considering todays crazy economy. The service was also very good and friendly. The only suggestion I have is to improve the cleanliness of the washroom.
We ordered over the phone for pickup. They were great about answering our questions (my partner is celiac and cant have gluten) and taking our order. Food was some of the most flavourful food I have ever eaten. Great prices for what you get. We will be coming back :) Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and vegetarian options
Worth a visit, first time to visit Saffron, honestly did not know it existed. Food was excellent overall, really liked the lamb Karahi, naan, tandoori items and chicken biryani. Would not really order the chicken madras, average. Pleasant service and the chef came out to see if we were happy with the meal. Halal meats available which was great, would absolutely go back. They do a lunch thali which seems like great value, will try that next time. Clean washrooms and lots of parking. V simple decor, but worth going for the food.
I came in for lunch a couple weeks ago and ended up getting takeout for 6 people this week. Everyone loved the food! The Saffron will be my go to restaurant for Indian food.
Goat Curry was *chefs kiss*
Great portions for the lunch special and seriously tasty! $40 for 3 men, pleasantly fed. Excellently prepared food with super friendly attentive service. Thank you very much - we will be coming back again. Food
Best butter chicken Ive ever had, Naan bread is delicious warm and crisp in just the right way...a little hidden gem Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie only options
Lots of vegetarian options, quick, friendly and attentive service, and great prices! There was also lots of parking nearby. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options, including popular dishes like paneer and korma. You can select either rice or naan along with your dish. I had the mix vegetable korma and it was delicious!
Amazing food, we placed an order with Uber eats and one dish was mixed up, we called the restaurant and it was taken care of immediately, hand delivered from the restaurant. Great food and amazing service.
Editing and adding a 5th star for service. Also for catering I d give it 10 stars. Ordered last minute for a work breakfast where everyone comes off shift at 7 am and they like a meal vs breakfast food. Requested for 35 people and asked them to select with vegetarian options. 4 hours later it was ready! They packed it super well to the point that it was still warm even after being refrigerated all night. The food got rave reviews from everyone and will definitely be our go to for future events. Original review: Have been to Saffron in Cambridge and loved the food there. Saffron in Guelph doesn t disappoint! Generous portions of very well prepared and delicious dishes. We went for mild/moderate spice level and should have gone up but I like things spicy, but still a great spice level as was, flavours on point. Will go again maybe next time to eat in so I can give a full review. There are very good Indian restaurants in the south and west end of Guelph. Finally we have one closer to the downtown. Pakora - exceptional. Beef samosas - excellent. Chicken jalfrezi - very good. Karihi Gosht - order again and again. Naan was good not greasy.
My new go-to Indian restaurant in town. The food is authentic and amazing! Tikka Masala, Biryani and Butter Chicken are so good that I havent been able to stray from ordering them (4 times now). While other restaurants in town often charge extra for rice (sometimes $5), Saffron includes it with a very affordable price. I wont be ordering from anywhere else!
Good experience and quality food
We had a delicious dinner here last night. We ordered a thali and a vegetarian curry. Both were fresh and flavourful. Service was attentive. We look forward to trying the lunch thali next.
From start to finish, dining at The Saffron Indian Resturant & Bar was a delight. Their authentic Indian dishes burst with flavor and aroma, especially the Channa masala and Karahi paneer. The service was top-notch, making it a must-visit for anyone craving a taste of India.
I ordered special lunch thali and it was seriously amazing .
Very tasty food
Good food with great service
Great food. Best curry in Guelph. I recommend the Chicken biryani
I have visited this place multiple times after Friday prayer. The food is tasty with good portion and easy on the pocket. They have the spice levels to pick for each dish. I will recommend you to try their lunch thali its some $12 (as of today) comes with rice, flat bread, 2 curries to choose from (veg or non veg) enough for 1 person, I usually take the left over home for my next meal. Their lunch thali at this price is only between 11:30 am to 2:30 pm. Secondly try thier veg samosa its of the best I had.
Excellent food and great service!
Loved everything about this place, from the traditional cozy ambience to the taste of authentic Indian food, best service , friendly staff and beautiful place . !! ONE OF THE BEST INDIAN RESTAURANT IN TOWN !! GO FOR IT !!
Best place for lunch! So much food and so delicious.
One of the best indian food, excellent service.wont regret Vegetarian options: Kadhai paneer must try Food : 5/5 |
BEST FOOD SO FAR
Bathroom is dirty and smells
We came on Christmas Day and the staff was super friendly and the food was amazing. We will definitely be back.
Great food. Always delicious. Atmosphere could have been lively.
Loved our visit!! Absolutely awesome food.
A hidden gem! Dont be fooled by the simple interior, the food here is genuinely delicious. Highly recommend the veggie samosas! Portions are perfectly sized - not excessive but doesnt leave you wanting more. Butter chicken and the chicken tikka masala were ordered and very very delicious. Service was quick, polite and attentive. This might possibly be my new favourite Indian food place in Guelph!
Food is nice . Very recommendable
The most important thing is the food, and it was excellent! We ordered Tandoori chicken and a lunch special, which was aloo gobi, dal, rice, a bit of salad and a papadam. The aloo gobi might be the best I have ever tasted. It was rich (with ghee I suppose); the spice mixture was deep and complex; and the cauliflower and potatoes were perfectly cooked. The sauce did not overwhelm the taste of the vegetables. The chicken was served with an outstanding green raita. Even my cup of tea was perfect. The atmosphere was the only glitch. Lights are much too bright. And the restaurant was drafty.
Great ambience and comfy environment. As per the weather today it was great way to not think and order what you feel like in the mood for. Blind recommendation if you re around!! Food
The best butter chicken we ve had in town. We had a meat platter and the meat was fresh and juicy. There are a few places to sit but it s quite small, so take-out is preferable. Dietary restrictions: All meat is halal.
We got catering done and got very delicious food delivered. All our guests were so happy and praise the food. We definitely recommend this place for all your family parties and celebration.
Our new go-to for Indian in Guelph. Love that the curry orders include rice or naan. Keep it up!
The food quantity is very low. Taste is very bad. Not even close to Indian taste, even though the name has Indian in it. Food
Amazing place!
We love this food! Toddler approved too!
Great place to taste authentic Indian food! Staff were so nice and attentive and everything tasted great! Would definitely recommend trying it out
The food here is perfect! We ordered some takeout for dinner and it was delicious! We will definitely order from here again! I loved the butter chicken snd naan! Sorry i forgot yo take a picture
Best Indian food in the area by far. Must try
Great food, great service!!
Literally amazing. Super helpful over the phone when ordering. Added extra a sauces to our takeout and sent us home with a box to help us carry it all. Thank you so much!
Pure perfection! We came to my parents in Guelph and had left overs from Saffron, and that was still worth 5 stars! Was so good that we decided to get it again the next night It s phenomenal quality, super tasty, and great service. Keep up the great work!
New gem in the city of guelph. As i had my first bite i could feel full flavour of the dish. Everything was so fresh mix veg korma and karahi paneer my favourite.
first time ordering from the saffron Guelph it s mouth watering Chana masala and paneer tikka masala I have no words for it. Amazing food.
Excellent food and very good service too, will definitely visit again
Fantastic food, excellent service. We had the butter chicken, beef Korma and Channa Masala, scrumptious!! Naan, warm and so good. We will definitely be here again.
Very delicious food! And the hospitality was very generous. Truly recommend it
Delicious food. Very flavourful. Every item came with beautiful garnishes. The veg biryani is a must-do- overflowing with nuts, spices, vegetables. Vegetarian options: Lots of choices. The okra is great- not saucy.
Amazing food , specially the saffron Biryani 10/10 for the service Vegetarian options: Panner tikka masala ,Aloo ghobi , Malayi kopta Dietary restrictions: Gluten free
Ordered Take out yesterday, Really great service with extraordinary Taste .
Stopped in for a quick dinner. Food was delicious and service was quick and friendly. Butter Chicken was teen approved and the rest was flavourful (Lamb Spinach, Channa, Rice and Naan). Best Naan we have had in a while, lightly crispy and soft, not too thick. Atmosphere simple and clean, price is affordable. Will go again and will try the take out.
Goat lunch was very good. Must try!!!
Probably the best Indian food I had in Canada. Really enjoyed the food. The price of lunch combos and the thali combos are really reasonable too. Overall, if your in Guelph and want to have Indian food, please come here.
I oredered from here for the first time. I ordered butter chicken and it was great. Could have used a little more heat but that was my fault. The pricing was good. My only issue but not a complaint was the pieces of chicken which there was plenty of were to big. I try not to use cutlery when eating this type of food but i had to use a knife to cut them up. My suggestion would be to still give the quantity but cut them smaller. All in all loved it. It is my mew place when in the mood. Highly recommend it.
Food is fantastic. Service is lovely. But the dine-in atmosphere it feels less cosy than McDonalds. And they don t have a liquor license. It is clear their main business is take-out and perhaps a quick lunch special eat-in. If you want a great dinner - order their take-out.
Very tasty food
Sooo good, we had the mango curry, butter chicken and tikka masala. Amazing food.
I missed good Indian food on Municipal Street and IT IS BACK (-: Hot curries: vindaloo was hot & tasty, madras was not as hot as expected but still good. Medium curries: Lamb saag is just as irresistible as Bombay Cafes was (oh, that delicious green slime...) but isnt the same as BCs. House curry was fine. Weve had bad biriyani at other places & I am happy to report they serve really good biriyani at Saffron. Mild curries: Ive never had better korma than Saffrons. I love how they cook the naan... a bit crispy on the bottom, soft & bubbly on the top. I preferred the veggie samosas over the beef ones but you do you. Pakoras were pretty good.
Had requested the restaurant for catering for a small group. The food was delicious and everyone loved it.
Fantastic place with amazing service, and very tasty food with good portions, and great tea.
We loved the Bombay Cafe, which was in this location for decades, and we were sad when it closed last year. The Saffron Restaurant opened in that location a few weeks ago, so we decided to try it last night. It s great! We both had a thali, which provided generous portions of delicious food including a little dessert (gulab jamin) in the middle of the plate. Their naan is some of the best we ve ever had! The owners/staff were very friendly and helpful. The only reason I gave the atmosphere a 4 is that the ambiance is pretty stark perfectly fine but not really cozy or refined. Lots of takeout business coming and going in a pretty small space. Other than that tiny thing, I highly recommend this place!
Real authentic Indian food always full of flavour.
I recently tried the Karahi Paneer lunch special at this restaurant, and it was an absolute delight! The flavors were authentic, and the paneer was perfectly cooked, making it a truly satisfying meal. The portion size was generous, and it was a great value for money. The service was friendly, and the ambiance added to the overall dining experience. Ill definitely be coming back for more of their delicious Indian cuisine!
This is our favourite Indian restaurant in town by FAR!!! The staff is so lovely and the food is amazing. The paneer makhni is to die for!!!! Vegetarian options: Many different paneer and vegetable only dishes.
Excellent Food! I went with a friend and we were very happy with the taste and smells of both veg and non-veg. I would highly recommend this new restaurant. Very well done.
Excellent food and Service. Happy to find a nice place nearby. Vegetarian options: Nice Kadhai paneer and Malai Kofta Food : 5/5 |
Really amazing food! Tastes, just as good the next morning cold!!
Absolutely the best Indian food we ve had in a long time! The flavours of everything was far beyond any other local spot; perfect portions, decent prices, and even when ordering delivery the food arrives piping hot! We have recommended to our friends to try as well. This is now our go-to Indian spot and the only Indian we ll order going forward.
Went as a group of 15 people, service was great, food was awesome and experience was amazing. Space was little but our experience was good.. recommended for sure
Vegetarian options: Very good food Food
We had the butter chicken and goat thali. I will recommend this restaurant. Very good food. Will visit again in future.
Amazing food! Great portions, variety of spice levels for anyone to enjoy. Definitely worth coming in or getting take out. Unfortunately the fluorescent lights ruin the atmosphere. Suggestions: get some dimmer laps to light up the place over the overhead lights and get more decor for the walls. Other than that, amazing experience
Good quality and tasty food.
Small portion of Dahl along with small tasty paneer in home made butter chicken sauce. Lots of filler starch with rice and naan and popadom.
New to Guelph, My first experience at Saffron was excellent. I ordered butter chicken, chicken tikka, and garlic butter naans, everything was perfectly cooked, and we re very impressed with quality and portions, we will be back again.
Perfect taste and service
The meal was so delicious and well presented. The daal makhani was so tasty with garlic naan. My husband had the tandoori chicken and he said it was really Moist and perfect. Recommends to have it with chutney. Restaurant was really amazing.
Delicious food . Great service .ordered veg pakora and papri chaat with main course.
We ordered take out and had Karahi Paneer, Daal Makhani, Naan and Tandoori Chicken. What a fabulous meal and everything tasted amazing. Next time we will visit the restaurant and enjoy the meal again.
Great food good prices a must try
Have ordered take out twice - great both times! 20$ for a curry and naan. I have ordered the lamb madras and a shrimp madras and both were great! The shrimp was a bit overcooked but still good. Will order again! Also agree with other reviews that they should adjust lighting/atmosphere for dine in!
We ordered from here for the first time on Sunday and we ll order again! We ordered for pick up and it was ready when they said it would be. Order was correct, hot and very good! We had butter chicken, chicken korma and chicken vindaloo with rice and naan. Give Saffron a call!
