    This is my second time at Saffron and once again it did not disappoint! Saturday night party of 5 was quickly seated. Our server was kind, humorous, and attentive. The atmosphere is chic and unpretentious--you automatically feel at home while at a place that is very cool. You feel like you found THE PLACE to be! The food--WOW! The beetroot appetizer had some heat to it that builds over time. The bao buns were DELISH! Super creative. The canapes were so flavorful and beautifully presented. For entrees, we savored each bite and were excited to bring home a few leftovers. I especially enjoyed the chicken korma--wonderfully comforting and complimented the rest of the meal. We were celebrating a birthday, and our server planned a deLIGHTful surprise to complete the meal. All of us left happy, appropriately full, and wanting to come back very soon.

    We made a reservation way ahead of time because we were attending a show later. The clams casino were the best we’ve ever tasted! Also the veal parmigiana was excellent! Would definitely go back!
