Went for the lunch buffet after Christmas, and it was pretty good! Not the best Indian food I've had in Milwaukee, but you just can't beat $15 for access to all of the delicious food. The chicken tikka masala lacked a little flavor, but the rice and other chickens were very good. I wasn't a big fan of the goat curry flavor, meat tasted odd. The waiters are extremely kind and on top of replacing food in the buffet, taking plates, and asking if you need any drinks/desserts. The ambiance is simple but clean and cozy. I really appreciate that all of the food stayed hot and refills were brought out proactively. I'd def go back! We're thinking about attending the NYE buffet with bottomless drinks and food!

One if the finest Indian Restaurant i have tried in months. I loved how our server (Sarah) was very considerate, helpful and very smart. I lived the way she introduced herself on the table that she will be making sure everything is taken care of. We went there in a party of 8 after my sister's engagement. Since we went for the lunch, there was buffet or we could order Ala-Carte. We chose the buffet as it so many options - both in vegetarian and meat. Couple drinks were included in the menu. I ordered Mango and Orange Mimosa and few others on the table ordered Taj Mahal Beer. From what i could recall - they had Mysore masala dosa, pakoras, sambar, fish fry, paneer tikka masala, noodles, lamb curry, chicken curry, matar paneer, Manchurian, Pani Puri, salad. - i am still missing 5-6 items. But food quality was very good. The naan are served hot on the table. We enjoyed our food and then in desserts ate Gulab Jamun, kheer, and mango ice cream. The owner of the restaurant was always in the dining area making sure everything is taken care of well. Definitely a place to try if you are in Milwaukee area. Family Owned restaurant - Do support them

What a FANTASTIC Authentic Indian Food!! After Visiting Temple, I took my family to Maharaja Restaurant as I had heard much about that . Waitress explained the menu Very nicely. We ordered some drinks and we preferred to go for the buffet. I liked crispy Punjabi style pakoras and manchurian. Noodles I didn't like. They could have been made much better. Potatoes and peas vegetable was very delicious. Even I liked Shahi Paneer preparation. Others in my family liked non vegetarian food too like Lamb curry, chicken tikka masala, Fish Fry but being vegetarian I was happy with very yummy garlic naan . All dishes were fresh and it tasted like homemade food. My son loved the Mysore Masala dosa with the sambar. They serve Gol Guppas in the buffet but need improvement. The drinks (certain type) were included in the buffet Dessert like gulab jamun and kheer was perfect and they also served Mango ice cream on demand. I tasted everything but preferred Hot Gulab jamuns. Service was super good. Friendly and generous reception . Everything neat and clean. Furniture setting was good and surprisingly no table was vacant. Sarah was our server and she made sure everything was taken care of. Best thing, we all got private parking.

I used to love this restaurant, and went to the buffet very frequently for lunch. I recommended it to others as well. It was my go-to for workday lunches with friends. I understood when they stopped having the buffet the first year of the pandemic. But now, I am not sure why it hasn't come back. In its place there is a limited menu at lunch where you can choose a few items. The itself food was pretty good. BUT They don't allow you to take home your leftovers. So I paid for the food, but they refused to give me anything to take the rest home. So perfectly good food went into the trash. If they had let people know at the start of the meal, or on their website, I could have brought my own container to take the food home. But the weird way this was handled really soured me on this restaurant. Tip: bring your own container.

I have been to their lunch buffet several times in the past two years. Their quality has been consistently awesome. Great service too. Recently tried their Mango lamb dish. It is made with sweet mango chutney with a choice of meat between chicken and lamb. Enjoyed it thoroughly. If someone is not into spicy food, this is a perfect choice. Kids might enjoy it too. It is more like orange chicken kinda Chinese dish, but made with sweet mangoes.

Saffron remains one of my top 3 favorite restaurants in MKE I love so many things about it. The ambiance is spot on, moody, yet energetic. Their cocktails are always ahhhmazing. Each dish that comes out is somehow better than the last, there's not one thing on the menu that disappoints. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, offering great recommendations when we are choosing between items. It's a great spot to go with a larger group so you can try lots of dishes! It's not impossible to get a reservation which I appreciate, but it's always booked/lively. The food presentation only enhances the experience, but the flavors and textures are really what make this menu shine. I cannot wait to go back in July with a group of friends (who have never been!) and try the whole menu! Bravo, Saffron, keep up the great work

Pro Tip: Don't worry about ordering too much. The leftovers are even better the next day…read more Anmol is a great restaurant with a lot of vegetarian and vegan options. The curries are packed with flavor and even the basmati rice is flavorful as you can tell by the aromatic spices like whole cloves and cinnamon that you'll want to pick out before eating. This restaurant also offers #halal options for those with dietary restrictions. Prices were fair and I feel like we got a lot of value in quantity and flavor based on what we paid. The restaurant also offers multiple styles of samosas which are both amazing and unique. Thankfully we had some leftover to heat up the next day. After sitting overnight and marinating even further, the leftovers were so good I wished I had ordered more food just to enjoy it the next day!

Our server was very kind and helped us navigate the menu and help make some suggestions. We ended up ordering 4 dishes and shared them amongst the 4 of us. We ordered the Chicken Biryani, Frontier Chicken, the Afghani Kabab (Chicken Skewers) and the Palak Paneer along with the Mango Lassi to drink. The food was amazing!!! Well seasoned and cooked wonderfully. The aroma and flavor were incredible and we enjoyed every dish. I recommend giving this place a try if you haven't. We will be back soon.
