If you show up at a popular Italian restaurant Saturday night without a reservation, it's likely…read moreyou won't get in, especially during Restaurant Week. We didn't. So we drove to Saffron Kitchen, thinking our chances were better. I like the ambience of Saffron. While my favorite Indian restaurant is a hole-in-the wall a few miles away, I was happy to be here. A waiter handed us menus that didn't include the prix-fixe dinner we came in for. "We have October specials. That's it," he said. "Nope, please check with the manager," I responded. And I was right. (Anyone coming in through October 25th might request the Restaurant Week menu, which may -- or may not -- be of interest.) The prix-fixe is $30 per person. Dinner was great, with leftovers enough for another meal. The appetizer was my favorite part. We each got a plate with a succulent chicken kabob and what's called 'aloo tikki.' (Was it potato? It was delicious.) There's a choice of four entrees, two being vegetarian. I chose chicken bhuna cooked with onions, green peppers, tomatoes, ginger, and garlic in a light curry. My husband ordered chicken tikka masala in a creamy, spicy tomato sauce. I thought his was better than mine. The plates came with basmati rice and a choice of either butter or garlic naan. You're given badami kheer, an Indian spin on rice pudding, for dessert. It's very good. I noticed there's a small lot to the side of the building, but nonetheless street parking is readily available. Saturday night Saffron had a steady stream of customers, many bringing their own wine. I'm happy to see they remain a byob sans corkage fee.

This is such a hidden gem. The Chicken Tikka is so buttery, flavorful, and creamy. Everything you…read moreimagine tikka masala to be, but many places fall short. I order their Lamb Biryani every time, but the real highlight of the dish is the Raita (yogurt looking side) that it comes with. It's really the star of the show. And do I even need to tell you how good their Garlic Naan is? Just order it. If you're looking for an Indian spot, look no further, this is the place. Not pictured are the Samosas, which are crispy and fluffy and comes with 3 sauces to top off with. My favorite is the chutney sauce, Yummmmm. And the staff?? The man who usually serves us is so kind and welcoming. This is our go-to for classic Indian cuisine.

When I read my prior review I was reminded to avoid anything made in the tandoor. (Our meal last…read moretime was over-cooked.) HOWEVER I thought they did a stellar job with sauce, which is what brought us back. I went with my second favorite dish, chicken korma. The sauce was great, the chicken a bit dry. Deviating from his usual vindaloo, T lived in the fast lane (ha!) and ordered lamb roganjosh. The sauce was excellent, described in the menu as "yogurt, onions, ginger and garlic in a traditional curry" but there's the unmistakable addition of cinnamon. And it works! Our appetizer, tangy eggplant, was crisp and spicy with a portion large enough to feed four as a starter. What made the evening notable were four delightful octogenarians seated next to us. I was tasked with the awesome responsibility of guiding them through the menu. My recommendations luckily were well received. The restaurant was practically empty Saturday evening. "I guess the waitress is too busy to come over," one of our new friends said sarcastically. Which brings me to the help. Our server, the same person we had last time, is noticeably timid, hesitant to effectively interact with her customers. The neighboring table agreed and continued to wait patiently. Nirvana is still considered a byob, though they may actually serve alcohol. In any case, they now impose a $10 corkage fee, when before they charged nothing.

But if you are starving or are going somewhere else after dinner, this is not your place. It took forever for the ONE waitress to take our order. Never refilled water glasses.

But probably not go back to eat inside.

Order was ready on time, and pick up was easy. I didn't eat in, but noticed there are a few small tables inside, in case you'd like to eat in. Having the food ~20 minutes later, personally felt like the food was OK. The flavors were there, but nothing in too strong a measure if you get what I mean. Quantity was decent, and definitely filled up. While service was quick, and the food was decently portioned, there was nothing too stand out about the place. Good for a solid lunch if you're having specific cravings or are nearby, but nothing I'd go out of my way for personally.
