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.

With so many other places for baked goods and sandwiches in the downtown sechelt area, I'll skip this place in future.

We had the salmon chowder, Thai mussels, soy dijon salmon, short rib, and seafood pasta. Everything tasted great, but some of the seafood was slightly overcooked. The focaccia that came with the soup and mussels were a crowd favorite. It felt like a ciabatta bread, but seasoned like a focaccia. The short rib was tender and the vegetables tasted amazing. I loved the gravy that came with the dish. The soy dijon salmon was overcooked, but still tasted good. The sauce was so flavorful and I couldn't get enough of it. The seafood pasta was cooked al dente and felt refreshing. They gave a generous portion of seafood. I personally would have liked a tiny bit more lemon, but otherwise I would order this dish again. Our server Michael provided excellent customer service. We mentioned that we would be sharing the appies and without us having to ask, he split the soup into 3 individual portions. He was super friendly and went above and beyond for us.

It's not their fault - the hard surfaces, as with most restaurants these days, tend to bounce noise and clatter around. But the good things easily outweigh that.
