Been there once before and thats why we’re going again tonight! The owner I forget his name was really nice and the food was outstanding – our frined who took us there explained about some fattening agent that brings out flavours that most indian places add in which is what leaves dishes swimming in oil, – well this place doesn’t use it, they do it ol’ school and the flavours were amazing and no oil at all… must be better for the waistline, and who doesn’t like being served by someone with respect and manners!

Fantastic atmosphere with very friendly and respectable staff (not sure what the other reviewers were talking about), the Prawn Malabari was delicious I would definately recommend this restauarnt to anyone in the area!

We entered the restaurant on Sunday noon and walked to a table which was empty. One of the staff turned up (who was in mid to late 40′s) and said “there are people at this table”. I responded saying, “sorry, there was no one at the table and thought was free”. Though the attitude was rude, I could take it till here.
Next the staff said “you should ask me first”. I was pissed at this point but tried to be calm and said, there was no one at the enterance and he responded saying “I can’t be there all the time”.
Me along with my friends thought it was a little too much of attitude and said between us “let’s leave” to which the staff replied, “yes go”.
Firstly, there was no board saying “Please wait to be seated” (remember Dennys or La Porcheta).
Secondly, there was no sign that the table was taken, not even a sign saying reserved, so a simple explanation that it was taken could have been enough.
Just because the restaurant is full or they’re making money each day doesn’t mean they can act like arrogant people. The staff who spoke with us (probably the owner) never said please or apologised but was constantly rude and arrogant. We did not regret leaving the restaurant as it gave us a chance to try “Jay Jalaram” in Sandringham and it was awesome.
I am never ever going to Saffron again and strongly suggest, if you want to be treated like customers and respected please do not go to Saffron. Wish only if I had a way to lodge a formal complaint against them. Good bye Saffron, you guys suck!!!

i dont understand how this place can get a good review.
its expensive for one – also the curry is substandard, pureed sauce with no texture. not to mention these guys looked like they wanted to save on the curries by putting in less spices. it tasted like they were serving up tinned curry.

disappointing and arogant people

i have visited 3 times & all time found very good in food,& hospitality.pleas ask mr.kutty to contact me
thanks
