It was pretty empty when we first showed up so we got seated quickly, the place is pretty small but cosy and the lighting is really nice. There was only one server and by the time there was 3 tables she got quickly overwhelmed and service was pretty slow. We started with the Kashk Bademjan, its incredibly good and I highly recommend ordering this. The server almost accidentally give our mains to another table but she caught it in time. I got the Khoresh Gheymeh (lamb stew I believe), it seems like they no longer offer it as I don't see it on their online menu. It was pretty good and I liked the strong lime flavours. By this point in our meal the server couldn't keep up with all the tables and we ended up having to pile of our dishes off to the side of our table. The dessert was the highlight of the evening, the cheesecake was average but the saffron cake was delicious! One of the best cakes I've ever had! By the end of our meal the owner came to help the server and it was great to see him helping on the floor! He was very kind and explained that one of there servers called in sick and they couldn't get another worker in on time. Overall I enjoyed the evening and it was great to experience a different kind of cuisine then I am used to. The only reason this review is a 4/5 is because of the service, while the sole server was good she was very slow and made a few mistakes. read more

Had a big mix of takeout. Everything was profoundly mediocre. The Kafta was under spiced, while the dolma was over. I was disappointed, but it was fine, I guess. read more

The food, ambience and staff are all amazing! Authentic Persian dishes made in house. Expect to spend extra time as everything is put together ready made. Gives lots of time to enjoy the company and take in the ambience. We went on a Saturday and there was live music and additional menu choices that are only available on the weekend. The food is tasty and the saffron tea is the best I've ever had. Highly recommend dining at Saffron! read more
