Saffron Grill is one of the better Indian restaurants in the Tri-Valley area. The food was flavorful and well prepared, with a nice balance of authentic spices without being overly heavy. Service was excellent -- attentive, friendly, and welcoming throughout the meal. Definitely a place worth coming back to if you're looking for solid Indian food in the area. read more

Sanramon is full of indian restaurants, Only a few good ones though. Saffron grill is addition in that. Glad they are keeping it simple, clean, as it was in their pleasanton location- frontier Spice. a few san ramon restaurant honestly going in literal war for clearly FAKE reviews, including bribing with free sweet for review. Glad good businesses like Saffron grill, Clove, Pakka local,Khaki, donot get into this madness. Yelp and Google reviews need to work on fake reviews so Genuine businesses thrive. read more

Saffron Grill opened here a month ago where Plucked Chicken & Beer once roosted. Now transformed into a AUCE Indian buffet by day and a diner at night. Was opened 1/2 hour early on Sunday. Attracted. By 15% off 21.99 regular price. Deal ends 6/17/26. Surprised by large variety of fresh tasty edibles. Many seldom seen on buffets Decor looks semi-luxurious. Instrumental/vocal Indian music in background. Items served: Fresh fruits, salads, Dahl, ....aloo, freshly made naan, vegetable pakora, vegetable noodle (would skip), goat curry, butter chicken, chili chicken, Methi paneer, subz tikka (very tasty), saffron rice etc. Punjabi tikka chicken/fish (excellent): marinated in yogurt & mustard oil, cooked in clay oven. Strawberry lassi-fresh strawberries, milk... too sweet for me. Kids will love it. Chai unsweetened. Great for Me. Litchi penna cotta: fabulous semi sweet lychee flavored gelatin. Semolina/gajar ka halwa: fabulous semi sweet pudding dessert. 5 stars: self service. Clean serving area. Quantity/Quality: very good to excellent. read more

Had a great dinner for 2 at Saffron Grill (2 doors down from Pho Hoa off Crow Canyon Road). It's a bright, tastefully-decorated restaurant, with well-spaced tables. And the food was fresh and well-prepared and tasty. Full disclosure - I'm not of Indian descent, although I do dine at a lot of South Asian restaurants. Started with the Tandoori Cauliflower, which came on a sizzling platter with 2 dipping sauces - basil and chutney, I believe. It was a great presentation of cauliflower - a bit spicy and very flavorful, with a good crunch to the vegetable. Next we had the Kadhai Chicken. The sauce was thicker and not gravy-like, but it had great spices and vegetable flavors. As advertised, it was thigh meat which was very moist. I asked that they make it less spicy than normal and it was not spicy at all; I would probably have it as intended next time. We also had the Yellow Dal Palak, which was traditionally prepared, and the spinach was a nice touch. It was tasty, and not spicy. Finally, we had an order of the Plain Naan, which came with four quarter pieces and was fine. The service was outstanding, and the server and host were very warm and helpful. Although the restaurant is relatively new, I don't think they missed any beats in serving the food. We dined on a Wednesday night around 8, and there were about 5 parties eating total. A few deets - the room is large and I believe they could accommodate a large group by putting tables together. Payment was traditional - your credit card is processed up front and you sign the ticket after adding your tip. There is ample parking in the adjoining shared parking lot. And, less I forget, they are offering a 15% Grand Opening discount. Recommended! read more

We originally stopped by to try the new Saffron Grill for Indian lunch. It turns out its lunch buffet only and many of the items were stews and fried items. Smells great, but my wife didn't find anything to her liking. So we walked out after they seated us with water. I felt bad so I used Doordash to get ala carte dinner. They have a much braider menu for dinner including some of my favorites: Methi Malai Chicken - Walnut cream and fenugreek sauce over juicy chicken thighs. One of my favorites Indian preparations of chicken, and its not that common IMHO. Almost French-like with its rich, earthly flavors. 5 stars. Tandoori Chicken - Four bone-on dark meat pieces. Beware, as some parts were undercooked. Nuke in microwave for 3 min on High. Good flavors after microwave, but a ding for the initial undercooked chicken. 3 stars. Saag Paneer - Excellent. Much smoother than other Indian places and the spice level is just right for me. 5 stars. Overall, a promising new Indian place, but only for ala carte dinner. Buffets these days actually are a crap shoot. Always check bone-in Tandoori chicken, since in our experience its more likely undercooked rather than overcooked. read more

Enjoyed the food we picked up from Saffron Grill. Talked to the owner, Sonia who was very nice and gave me some good recommendations. We tried their Amritsari fish which was tasty and surprisingly not oily at all. Then we tried the chicken trio, each variety was different, succulent and moist. The third thing we tried was the goat curry which was also very good. Next time we will eat in at the restaurant. Please give this place a try, we surely will be back. read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon for their weekend buffet. It was $21.99 per person with a 15% off promotion. My daughter and I walked in at 2:30pm and were surprised that we were the only customers. As this is a new business and it was 30-minutes from closing, I guess this is understandable. The food and service was great. This business fills a nice little spot in the community, will visit again for sure. read more

Saw someone posted about this new Indian restaurant in San Ramon and about their weekend buffet for me interested. Even their facebook postings look pretty good overall, might try a weekday lunch over there sooner than later. Anyways, I stopped by Sunday afternoon to be honest I was sort of surprised they opened later than a lot of other places..but they opened at 12 and I got there around 1pm. I was honestly kinda of surprised that I was the first person there, luckily after a showed up a few other groups came in and a few ate there while a few other groups glanced at the offerings and declined. The place itself was very clean and neat and the decor was very nice and imo bordering on the higher end look or appeal. The buffet offerings were decent to slightly above average but admittedly imo was also kinda of small in terms of variety. The food itself overall was very good, none of the food was overly spicy nor salty when I was eating it. The pepper chicken was more of an indo-Asian fusion and wasn't what I've had at other Indian restaurants, so it was definitely as nice change of pace here. The veggie offerings were all very good and flavorful and I was also kinda of surprised that they were offering Thai peppers raw to add more heat to your meals. I had to ask just to make sure and to see if it was a smaller version of Serrano peppers which I've seen more often around Indian buffets. Other stands outs were the fish which I thought was pretty good and the goat curry which always seems to be a solid choice if you don't mind eating goat. The mango lasse was a nice offering here too which o normally don't see it for free at a buffet. Besides this the server and waiters were all very friendly and were quick to take my empty plates and refill my water. Definitely recommend this place if you are in the area at least for the weekend buffet. Will probably update if or when I try their lunch offerings. read more

As a regular of 10 years at Frontier Spice in Pleasanton, when I found out they shifted in San Ramon, I just had to visit. You are welcomed by friendly staff and a comforting atmosphere! We ordered many items but some of our favorites were the trio of chicken, Ginger Brulee, & masala lamb chops! The strawberry lassi was so refreshing for the hot day. Kudos to the amazing chefs! They had so many tempting options that we could not try all at once but we will definitely be coming back! read more

So me and my coworker decided to check it out today for lunch. Right when you walk in the place is nice and clean. The decor is very nice. The friendly staff greeted us. When we went up to get our food everything look so good! I am a vegan and I love how they have plenty of vegetarian options. I had the small eggplant and it was amazing. I also had the rice, the fried eggplant, cauliflower and the other fried veggie and all of them were very good. The naan bread was hot and delicious! I love the fact that it's buffet where you can try everything. The staff was so friendly. Not sure if that was the owner but when we were leaving he came up to us and I told him how much I love all the food and very tasty. And I like the fact they have fresh fruits, desserts and juice. I forgot to take pictures of the buffet and the place. We will definitely be coming back and bring more coworkers with us. I wish you would open up a Saffron Grill in San Francisco. Thank you for having us. We will be back! Thank you to all the staff. You guys are amazing! read more
