    I was craving something spicy and gave this restaurant a try. They personalize spice level by…read moreselecting 1-5. I got the chicken tikka masala under the chicken specialty section and asked if the 5 level would make me cry. The waiter laughed and said absolutely, so I went with the 4. He was NOT wrong. I didn't cry, but I definitely started sniffling and my mouth was on fire when I bit into a pepper. The delicious mango lassi saved me. It had tiny bits of pistachio which was a revelation to me. I loved it and it tasted so fresh, not overly sweet. The chicken tikka masala was less saucy and creamy than I'm used to, instead it had a thick gravy consistency, but it was still very flavorful. I think the chicken tikka under their tandoori grill section might be more like I'm used to, where you can dip the naan in the sauce. The pieces of chicken were pretty big too. The garlic naan was generous and the mushroom pulao rice was delicious. Some reviews say this place is casual but I felt a bit underdressed since they do have white tablecloths/napkins. Service was very attentive and friendly. It was very warm inside so it was a nice break from the cold.

    That was a tasty stop! We planned to go to the restaurant below, but when we looked up and saw…read moreTandoori Grill, we switched plans and headed in! We had the Samosa with Channa (similar to samosa chaat I would say), the flavors were rich and delicious. We also shared the Veggie Jalfrezi which was very nice! A great amount of veggies! The restaurant was clean and the staff were kind. I'd say we made a great choice!

    So I went to Saffron in 2019 and had Butter Chicken so sweet I didn't eat it and left. (No one…read moreasked me if another dish might suit me better.) Six years later my wife and I decided to try again. Me: I was here years ago and I found the dish I ate too sweet. Is it possible to get my food without sugar? Sweet Waitress What was the dish? Me: I think it was Butter Chicken Sweet: There's no sugar in our Butter Chicken. It's made with tomato paste, ketchup... Me: (after she had finished listing ingredients.) Ketchup is almost pure sugar. I've been eating Indian cuisine for the large part of two centuries and in many cities on two continents. I cook northern and southern Indian dishes. I've taken classes, have several cookbooks and subscribe to the better you tube channels (I recommend Swasthi's.) Ketchup is not an ingredient in Indian food. I asked if there was ketchup in several other dishes and was basically told that the Korma was my best and only choice. There was ketchup even in the tandoori chicken. (There is an exception. There is a little chopped onion salad that is often made with either tomato chutney or ketchup.) Korma is a light sauce usually made with yoghurt and maybe a little cream. This was thickened with flour. So much flour that it reminded me of the time I tasted the paste in nursery school. The best word to describe it is "glop." To the many people who wrote rave reviews I beg you to take the ferry to the city and go to one of the many fabulous Indian restaurants there. Swad in West Vancouver is closest and the best. Vij's is amazing but very pricey. Sula and East is East are both terrific and you will pay the same as Saffron, maybe a tad less. My wife had the dahl. A lentil dish. It had a very strong flavour of...you guessed it---ketchup. We asked and, yes, it was, in fact, ketchup. The service was lovely. The naan bread was very good. Neither of them contained ketchup.

    So close to a full five, but a dry chicken leg was the only fault we could find in this very…read moreflavourful eatery. We got there with 30 minutes left in the Sunday buffet, but that was not our goal. The place was fairly full, but you could tell they were there for the buffet. I checked out the food in the warmers and it looked pretty good. We were sat quickly, our waters dropped promptly in cool copper and stainless glasses. The menu is fairly extensive but we had already decided on the meat dinner special for two as it provided a good variety of their offerings. We ordered some wine, and the food came out very quickly. It looked great, with the exception of the aforementioned chicken leg, which tasted great but was obviously cooked to death. The balance of the meal was really great and plentiful. The Chicken curry and Lamb curry were good and I am not a lamb guy. It was a solid hit, and a good way to experience the cuisine. The decor could use some work, it's fairly spartan, and the white rectangle painted on the wall for the projector doesn't help. You clearly don't go for the ambiance, but it's a solid 4+. We'd certainly go again.
