Been here twice now, really should come more often, this place is really great, miss the buffet from when they were in Brickell but the food and service here has always been excellent... I always get the Chicken Tikka Masala, amazing, probably the best I have had in South Florida, and up there with some of the best I have had period... read more

Headed to KB on a weeknight in search of good Indian food down here after hearing about this place. The service was outstanding - we really felt like they were delighted to have us and wanted us to know it. We had a question about a menu item, and chef came out to explain he'd be happy to make any substitutions or changes to accomodate our tastes (we didn't have too many). The place is small, quaint. Food was delicious, though the lettuce wraps were really not for us. Baigan bharta, saag paneer, paneer korma, chicken tikka masala - all super solid. We'd definitely go back/ recommend to others. read more

This is, by far, the best Indian restaurant I have been to. My boyfriend is Indian and incredibly picky and judgemental about restaurant Indian food. The usual response is- meh-my mom could do better. Not here (no offense mom). We ordered the food very spicy, and we were not disappointed. We normally order a few extra dishes to bring home an abundance of extras because we like it that much. read more

Food on the key is limited and it always exciting to find a diamond in the ruff. The food here is delicious. The flavor of every dish is rich and satisfying. The staff is friendly and ready to suggest dishes to new comers. We had Shawn as a server three times now and he is always a great part of the experience. The place is very clean and I would recomend to anyone visting or living on the key. read more

Ayesha Saffron - Indian Near Me - Key Biscayne, Florida

See all

We have been on the search for good Indian spot in town for almost two years. We finally made it out to try this little place. I had seen pretty good reviews for it and I must say it did not disappoint. Hands down my favorite Indian food in Miami. Its a cute little space on Key Biscayne. Absolutely everything is delish. Particular favorites: the Chicken Korma, the Butter Chicken, the Lamb Rogan Josh and don't forget the garlic na'an and vegetable samosas. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. The portions are good size. The staff is friendly and attentive and the chef is there from time to time creating new little complimentary bites. As for pricing, its actually very reasonable in the realm of Indian cuisine. read more

Run don't walk to Ayesha. Shrimp curry, lamb roganjosh, eggplant dish (I forgot the name), sautéed green beans = favorites. This place is a iwn win win. Enjoy!! read more

Wow! So good! I had the Chicken Chili Masala, Aloo Gobi, and okra (can't remember the name of it) with naan. The okra and chicken masala were so good. I was really surprised by all of the flavor. The aloo gobi wasn't all that great; it wasn't bad but I would try something else next time. The place is a bit pricey but it is worth it. read more

We were on a short vacation to Florida.. Found this restaurant in yelp.. The food really surprised us. The biriyani and lamb vindaloo is a must have !!!! read more

I just happened to notice this restaurant one day and decided to give it a try. It is hidden within a storefront, which is why I had not noticed it for some time. Aysha is a quiet venue and has a small outdoor seating area in front. I am certainly no expert on Indian food, but I can speak for how much I enjoyed eating here. Everything tasted fresh and was absolutely delicious. I ordered the Dal Makhani and asked for it spicy, and it was nothing short of fantastic. The staff is courteous and attentive and the atmosphere is calm and welcoming. This restaurant is a hidden treasure on Key Biscayne! I highly recommend it! read more

This is a small restaurant with good food, I love the chicken tiki masala and the Rice pudding, but most of all the service was great

It is very hard to find good Indian food in Miami, so far this has been the best place I have found. The service could have been a little better and they could have closed the front door because it became hot inside the restaurant, but the food was so good that I still had to give it a 5. read more

Good Indian food in Miami is really hard to find, but Ayesha does not disappoint. The food is really good- veg samosas and begun barta (?)- eggplant dish- along with the desserts, were the best! The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is bc they were very slow with refilling water, which is key at an indian place where lots of things are spicy! also, it is very small and was hard to find; the sign was covered by a tree. lastly, the owner is what gives the place its charm. he suggests dishes for you that you would might not have ordered before. he is warm and friendly, and really gives that place its charisma. We had a great time! read more

Probably a VERY close second to Bombay Darbar for "Best Indian food in Miami." The negatives are having to drive out to Key Biscayne and paying a little more because of the location but the food is GREAT and the staff are VERY nice. I've never had a bad experience here.... read more

Best Indian food I've ever had. First time a restaurant in Miami could make my food spicy enough. Their Indian Spicy was much spicier than Bombay Dubar in the Grove. I ate the left overs for three meals in a row, and I never eat left overs. Service was good. -Chicken Vindaloo -spicy and awesome, nice cuts of meat -Cheese Naan-YUMMMM -Vegetable Somosa- very good, came with a sweet sauce rather than spicy, but very good -Chicken Biryani-awesome! -Mango dessert- fantastic read more

One of the more authentic Indian places around Miami. It's is good for Miami Indian food standards.

"lovely food and ambiance" This is a small restaurant with a few outdoor tables in a strip mall, but it is simple elegance. There are white tablecloths, unusual wall textures, booths, small cozy tables, etc. The food is delicious.We had the chicken and lettuce leaf wrap appetizer wiith tamarind sauce. Papadam and tomato chutney come with every dinner. Then we had tandoori chicken accomapnied with rice and mint sauce, and baked eggplant with tomato sauce and spices. Even house wine was good. My suggestion to the restaurant is that they serve 1/2 orders of their vegetable dishes, instead of serving and pricing them as full entrees. They should offer a combination vegetable platter or combination dinners with meat and vegetables. All sauces are $2.50 additional except the ones that come with certain dishes. It would also be nice to have raita, mint sauce, and tamarind sauce served along with the papadam, at no extra cost to the customer. Service was great and we thoroughly enjoyed dining here. read more

Along with Costa Med, one of the 2 best "go to" restaurants on KB. Attentive service, good prices and excellent ingredients/preparation. Breads, vegetarian plates and curries are terrific read more

Amazing amazing Indian cuisine. Perfect blend of spice and heat. Best in Miami for sure.

I went to Ayesha for lunch and the food is delicious. The staff is fresh friendly. Go to this restaurant in Key Biscayne

Authentic, spicy, friendly. Highly recommend the joint. Ventilation needs some work. You will smell like a smoky Tandoor oven later but dude it is worth it. :-) Best Indian restaurant in Miami-Dade. Now if only I could find one Afghan restaurant. :-) read more

Overpriced ! Server is rude, doesn't acknowledge you, portion sizes are minuscule and food was almost inedible ! The restaurant was extremely warm and the bathrooms are outside and up a flight of steps. Not planning on returning---ever read more

Really great vegetarian options - especially like eggplant curry, staff are nice people, it's the only Indian restaurant in key biscayne and it is also one of the best I've seen overall too! And try the red oniony sauce that comes with appetizer wafer breads- it's very interesting. read more

Delicious! And not that expensive. It never fails me every time I go here, and the service is very attentive and kind. Food is mind blowing and the staff are friendly & courteous. I would suggest as entree chicken tikka and as appetizer Palak paneer. Flavorful and delicious, Perfect for sharing. read more

They have not registered on Yelp. They are closed on Mondays. Avoid Biryani. It had no salt, was not basmati rice. Taste was good with lot of flavors but did not feel like birani at all. Malai kofta was really good though. Worth trying. read more

I would say it's not that great ! Food is too oily , even for Indian food standards.Prices are too high for the quality that is served here.We ordered palak paneer,naan and biryani for main course - ended up wasting almost 3/4th of it.Tip was also added to the bill - hence forcefully taken.Salted Lassi was just okay- could hv been better though. read more

Expensive but deliciously authentic Indian. Seriously hit if u want

Very delicious had chana masala, chicken ticka, garlic nan, aloo nan (carb junkie- I admit it) and some chai tea. Very clean flavors and more on the gourmet Indian food end, but not too pricy. Service was good too. Loved sitting outside and enjoying the tranquility I always find in Key Biscyane. I will be back for sure. read more

The other Indian restaurants have got some real competition now. This place has some good food. The restaurant is big and open not like others that are crowded and dark. Keep up the great work Ayesha, we'll be back. read more

Very yummy!! Amazing service! I ordered the mutter paneer and it was delicious. I definitely recommend it. If you're in the mood for dessert I recommend the mango mousse! It's sweet and cold and very creamy. I will definitely be coming back. read more

You can find good Indian food anywhere, but you can't find great Indian food everywhere. Well friends, Key Biscayne is home to the best Indian cuisine in Miami. My family and I are regulars and don't even need to look at the menu because everything taste delicious. My personal favorites are the lettuce and chicken wrap, which is a bit messy so don't wear white or do and own those chicken stains. The cheese and plain Nan are melt in your mouth good. There is other stuff that is really good to but I forgot what it is called so just pretend you are on a magical flying carpet and eat anything they suggest because you will not be disappointed. read more

Really great food & excellent service! I live in Brickell and the drive was actually very nice on the way there and back so getting there isn't as bad as one might think. The view at the causeway/bridge is gorgeous. Back to the restaurant, it's tucked way back in the shopping plaza ground level, it's small inside but very well kept. The menu is extensive, divided up into the kind of food you want, proteins, styles & signature dishes. As with all Indian food it's a bit pricey but truly the cuisine is priced well considering how yummy it is. Overall I absolutely recommend it and I absolutely look forward to going back... Sooner rather than later! read more

The food was great, the service even better! We were made to feel welcomed and wanted!

Went here for Father's day. The food was great! One of the best Indian restaurant I have ate at. We did have to wait for a bit for the food. It was a bit expensive but I think overall the food did make up for it. read more

What an enjoyable experience! The waiter was very personable and gave outstanding recommendations. Food was prompt and superb!

We have been visiting Ayesha for years and LOVE it!!! Sean always takes care of us and provides great service. We typically have the same thing as it is amazing! The vegetable samosas, Kashmiri naan, chicken korma or masala, and the mango mousse!!!! This is one of our favorite places. The price is very reasonable! We give this place two thumbs up!!! read more

It's some of the best Indian food I've had. Best Indian in Miami hands down. I am pretty boring and consistently get the chicken tikka masala, but I've had most of their lamb dishes and all of their vegetarian dishes and it was awesome. The inside isn't posh, but I don't think good Indian food really needs an amazing setting. My only wish is that they had a buffet. Because I would go HAM on that. Totally recommend this place! read more

Restaurants are about experience and great taste, ayesha is right on! Very friendly staff , place is very clean, loved the food. We were surprised with a complimentary delicious mango desert. Recommend eating outside mid week, very peaceful. 100 points for this place. Definitely coming back again!!!! read more
