It is quite…read morenew, having opened sometime in 2023 (I think) but judging by its other reviews it has already made quite the impression on those who've found it. Upon taking a quick, curious look online at this place after my first meal, I was surprised to find that this place is not (yet) regarded in discussion about Calgary's finest Indian restaurants, as the meal I'd enjoyed had easily suggested that to me. From my perspective, the name of this business is exactly the service it provides. I did not recognize much of the menu outside of what is normally on an Indian restaurant in North America, aka about 50%. I used Google for a lot of the dishes because I've only ordered online, but other reviews have said that the staff are very friendly and are happy to take any questions. It is consistently amazing, quality food at a reasonable price. The menu is large but doesn't seem to buckle under its size whatsoever, everything I've had had been wicked fresh, implausibly flavourful and impeccably quality. I hope this place finds a lot of success! It is still young but I believe it has the makings of a legend among Calgary restaurants. Take the Passage.

For our main course, we chose the Murg Chicken and Kadhayi Paneer, both of which were absolutely delicious and, dare I say, even better than what we'd find in India! The tandoori rotis were perfectly thin and soft, and the kachumbar salad was a great accompaniment. To top off the perfect meal, we ordered gajar ka halwa and gulab jamun. Both desserts were melt-in-your-mouth fantastic with just the right amount of sweetness. This was hands down the best Indian food we've ever had

Saffron has me a bit torn…read more One hand it's solid food, served quickly, friendly staff, and reasonable prices for Indian in the NW side of town. On the other, if I'm craving Indian it doesn't quite satisfy. From someone who loves Indian food and had traveled to India and eaten the real deal - it's not quite to my quality of authentic. For example, the naan is closer to greek pita than I'd expect. Not that I have an issue with greek pita... but just not always what I'm hoping for. That being said, there isn't a lot of NW competition for Indian so it is sometimes better than taking a bit of a drive to something a little more authentic or going to a higher price point place that takes a while. Saffron is a bit different that some restaurants in that they make a handful of dishes that day and you choose from those - not the menu unless you order in advance for a lot of people or something. They will always have butter chicken and a dahl but other than that you'll have to call or just go check it out. They will always have a few vegetarian dishes and then some with meat. They often have ocra and saag which are far from my favourites - and that's sometimes a bit disappointing to me. The good thing about Saffron is the food is made when you stop in (but does NOT taste like buffet style that's been sitting) so it's quick to stop in and pick up. The prices for the NW are not bad. For a veggie combo you get 1 veg dish, rice, naan and a curry for $9. Add a buck for a meat combo. Add a couple bucks for a second veg dish. A combo with 1 dish is more than enough for me most of the time. A combo with 2 dishes is usually 2 meals if I buy more naan. Overall that's not a bad deal when facing the cost of other NW alternatives. Overall, Saffron is definitely a good option to have around. Review 3 of 30 in Yelp's 30 Day Challenge
