Butter Chicken is the bet on the Northwest side of town. Served with Saffron rice. It's light fluffy cooked in saffron water. I ordered the Curry also. It's a darker curry & delicious. They both came in 1lb containers. The Naan was soft & buttery. Perfect lunch on a cool day.

Never have I tried the Saffron Biryani at my favorite Indian place. It was plentyful and sweet taste. Lots of veg prawns rice was delicious. It tasted fresh & definitely putting in my like list. Butter chicken is always on our list. It's wonderful with saffron rice. Garlic Naan is again a hit. I've tried other places but keep coming back to Saffron!

Saffron never disappoints. Portions are good always tastes freshly made. Definitely is in my repeat list. The Butter Chicken is so good with a tomato based sauce & chunks of chicken. The Tikka Masala is creamier with chunks of white meat. Garlic Naan is a must for dipping into these 2 favorites. Saffron rice is plentiful & good.

We always enjoy the food here, but was disappointed when we tried the Curry & Fries for the first time. There was only 9-10 waffle fries, which we didn't think was worth the cost. Everything else is delicious as always!
