Saffron Urban Indian Kitchen is a concept Chef Diwesh has been dreaming and planning about for over a decade. His goal was/is to create a space that is inviting, calming & an ambience that compliments his food. We are a "contemporary casual dinning" with a passion for everything hopsitality. Chef Diwesh takes pride in what he serves and his team is equally passionate and dedicated to ensure to match rest of the experience with the amazing food.

While you can find familiar dishes in the main menu, Chef is particular about the ingredients and the overall quality of the food. He is also dedicated to a monthly tasting menu that will be served in the Chef's Table (by rservation only: will be activated early spring).

- Well thoughtout ambience
- Amazing unrushed service/hospitality

When we arrived for our reservation the restaurant was very busy, which is to be expected at 6:45 on a Saturday. It was a date night for us so we didn’t mind being out a little longer. We waited while the lobby continues to fill up. It was taking a little while for our table to be ready so the manager asked us to sit at the bar and they would take care of our first round of cocktails while our table was prepared. So kind!! All of the bartenders were so nice to us even though we could tell they were super busy. Once we were seated our server, Chanda, promptly arrived and thanked us for being so patient. She was so bubbly and calm and it instantly put us at ease! We ordered our meals - Malai Shrimp and Spicy Salmon Biryani. The food was PHENOMENAL! While our wait was a little longer than normal we felt like royalty at Saffron! The team was so welcoming and kind and the food was better than either of us could have imagined! We will definitely be back and can’t wait to dine on the patio as the weather turns nicer. This is definitely one of our new favorites!

You can pick your spice level which allows a lot of people to eat together that normally would shy away from "spicy" foods
