The woman working there was very nice and accommodating. I informed her that I'm vegan and inquired about a few of my favorite Nigerian foods: egusi, greens, jollof, and beans. She didn't have egusi. She stated that she had greens but they're made with fish. She then offered to make me a fresh batch sans the fish if I had time to wait. I most certainly do! It wasn't a long wait either. I got a hefty container of food for about $15. There was enough food for 2 days (if I wasn't being greedy). I tried my food right away. The greens were very good and clearly freshly made with quality produce. The beans were good. The jollof rice was SLAMMIN!! Perfection in the flavor department! I'm unsure how long they've been open, but they seem fairly new. They're located in a strip mall with other small, locally owned businesses. Again, it's carryout only; you cannot sit in and eat. (I ate in my car.) They also offer catering services. Be sure to check out this spot if you're in the MSP area.

Ordered takeout from Saffron and had such a great experience…read more Their online ordering system is super easy to use, which made everything really smooth. Our order was ready on time and packaged well. Even though we were just picking up, the staff were attentive and helpful, which I really appreciated. The space itself is also very nice. Clean, well kept, and has a welcoming atmosphere. We started with the veggie samosas and mixed pakoras, and both were amazing. Perfectly cooked with great flavor and really good sauces. For mains, we had the Chicken Makhani (butter chicken) and the Chicken Malabar, and both were so good. Super rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The portions were also very generous. The garlic naan was a standout. Fresh, soft, and perfect for dipping into the sauces. Overall, everything we ordered was delicious and really hit the spot. Great flavors, great portions, and a really easy takeout experience. Definitely a place I would return to for dine in or takeout.

We've enjoyed this restaurant in the past, which is why this most recent experience was so…read moredisappointing. It feels like the focus has shifted much more toward the buffet, and the takeout experience has suffered as a result. The online ordering process was confusing because the only pickup times available were 4 PM or 6 PM. We would've loved to eat at 5 PM, as that's usually when we get takeout orders when we eat out. We chose the 4 PM slot, but when I arrived 5 minutes early...the order was already sitting out waiting. That immediately raised concerns about how long it had been sitting there. When I got home, some of the food was much cooler than expected for freshly prepared takeout, which only added to those concerns. I ended up needing to reheat several items as I was afraid from a food safety perspective. The pickup experience itself was also awkward. I stood waiting at the front for about 30 seconds while employees were nearby, but nobody acknowledged me. Eventually someone yelled "hello" from literally across the restaurant. After I responded and said I was there for a pickup order, there was very little communication. They looked at me confused. The employee then walked away and eventually returned with my order. The interaction felt confusing and unwelcoming. I was also disappointed by the portion sizes, especially considering current menu prices. On top of that, there is an additional service fee for online orders, which makes the value feel even worse. Overall, this visit left us feeling like the restaurant isn't prioritizing its takeout customers the way it used to. Between the confusing pickup process, concerns about how long the food sat before pickup, smaller portions, and added fees, were hesitant to order takeout here again. It's sad, because if you look at my previous reviews of this place, I use to enjoy it.

They do a high volume of take out so those can take precedence over your order at times depending on time of day but the food generally overall is good. Overall, the menu options are good and savory however, the buffet which is a big push here does not offer a lot of variety at times and depending on the time of day, some of the dishes are missing or empty. Also, depending on the dish it can be really salty so be sure to ask for no additional salt to be added if ordering off menu. The Naan is very good as is the Dosa which are HUGE and delish!

There is a reason that if you go to an Indian wedding in the Twin Cities, the meal is most likely going to be catered by India Palace, and if you're at an Indian party and the host didn't want to cook for a big group, it's most likely going to be catered by this place. Not to sound snobby, mean, or discount valid individual experiences, but some of these reviews just show how little some people know about Indian food.

The restaurant itself isn't my first choice for dining in and from what I could tell not very popular as a sit down, but they have great takeout service.
