Absolutely outstanding! Best Indian I have ever tasted, and I have eaten at hundreds of East Indian restaurants from America to London. The tandoori was delicious, fresh hot, the naan (chili and regular was moist with a tiny crisp on the edges). The Saag Paneer wash wonderful, fresh not over spiced, Chicken Tikka Masala and the chutneys... good and fresh! The owners brother came out to check on us with a big smile. I complimented the food. He said he is very proud to not use frozen vegetables or even frozen naan. The atmosphere is beautiful, see the pictures. The patio was closed during our visit, but the restaurant overlooks the lake. This is a great date restaurant. Even the gentle East Indian music adds to the ambiance. Lovely, really lovely. read more

If you love Indian food, stop pretending you haven't been looking for a place like this. Saffron Indian Cuisine is tucked away in an unassuming strip mall, but don't let that fool you. The ambiance is inviting, the service is refreshingly attentive, and the food is outstanding. My first visit was a casual dinner with a friend, and I left genuinely impressed. Chicken biryani, garlic butter naan, wine, under $30, full and leftovers. That alone should get your attention. This has become my regular takeout spot, and everyone I've brought or recommended it to agrees. Consistent, flavorful, and worth every visit. Go eat here. -- Nijah Q. of NYC read more

Saffron - Regular Chicken biryani, butter naan, and mango lassi takeout! - Indian Near Me - Rogers, Arkansas

SERVICE: 3.5/5 We visited on a quiet weekday with hardly any crowd, but the service was slower than expected. That said, the staff were friendly, though nothing about the experience stood out as exceptional. FOOD: 4/5 We tried the Manchow soup and Chicken Hakka noodles. The soup had good flavor but could have been thicker to match what I'm used to. The Hakka noodles, however, were delicious--well-cooked and flavorful. If you prefer more spice, you might need to ask for it. Overall, it was a satisfying meal. ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 The location near the lake is lovely, and the option of indoor or outdoor seating adds flexibility. The space is bright with plenty of windows, but there are curtains for those who prefer a softer ambiance. A nice setting to complement the meal. read more

Saffron is a place I frequent because of how great it is. It always smells excellent inside, great service, and a cute patio that overlooks the pond outside. I highly recommend Saffron, whether you're trying Indian food for the first time or a long time fan, this place is is sure to exceed expectations. Pictured in my post is the pashwarmi chole with white jasmine rice and a mix of onion and pepper. The onions and pepper is not something people typically order, but I find that it brings out the flavors of any Indian dish. Not pictured is the lentil soup which is also excellent. Give this place a shot if you haven't already! I promise you won't regret it! read more

The food was excellent! We had the Butter Chicken and Chicken Vindaloo which had great flavor and wasn't overly spicy. The Garlic Naan was to die for. It was within walking distance from our hotel which was convenient and the pricing here was good. Servers were friendly and the food came out quickly. The reason for the mediocre review is as follows: I think they mostly do takeaway food because seating looked limited and although we were seated right away they could invest in some decent tables as they are using glass topped round patio tables. My biggest issue was that their bathroom was super nasty with a toilette seat that was busted and looked to have been so for a long time. It wasn't attached to the toilette at all. Common, go to the Home Depot and invest twelve bucks in a new toilette seat. All I'm saying is if your bathroom looks like this I have to wonder what the kitchen looks like. It was the fly in the ointment and a pretty big one at that. read more

Butter chicken curry was great, but (1) they didn't give nearly enough rice the match the volume of the curry, (2) nor enough chicken cubes for the price I paid, and (3) I called 3 times to order ahead, but they wouldn't pick up, so I had to order online. read more

This my favorite Indian food restaurant in NWA. The service can be hit or miss but the food is always delicious.

Food is okay at best. Been a few times for take out. Estimated time is always way off. Was given a 20 min estimate for 2 entrees for a Togo order. Order took over 40 minutes. Set proper expectations from the start. read more

Went to Saffron while traveling to Bentonville for my wife's birthday. We were there on a Thursday and one of only 3 tables of customers but they had a pretty constant stream of take out orders. At first we were sat and left for a while but they came and got our order, which came out pretty quickly but our water was only filled once after the initial fill so that was disappointing. The food was hot and fresh though and delicious. The naan was so garlicky and soft. It was perfect for the butter chicken. The chicken in the noodles was a little dry and under seasoned but the noodles themselves were delicious. read more

The wife and I tried this place for a late lunch around 2pm. We were the only ones there at first, and we were seated quickly. It was surprisingly small inside, so I could see where it would fill up fast in peak hours. We ordered butter chicken and chicken vindaloo with garlic naan and cheese chili naan. About 30mins later, our food finally came out. It was worth the wait! This was some of the best Indian food I have had. I couldn't get enough of my chicken vindaloo. The spice was great heat and the naan accented it well. The wife loved her butter chicken and I even found myself dipping my naan in her butter chicken sauce after I finished off my vindaloo. I wish we didn't live 4hrs away so I could go more often. At $48 with tip, it was on par price wise with the other Indian places we have been. read more

Yum!!!! The best Indian food in town!! 10/10 recommend this place!! The staff are very nice as well

When the buffet is utilized at Saffron, this turns into a very disappointing experience. This is not a negative review of the food, which was largely flavorful and within expectations. Still, the overall patron experience on a Sunday buffet setup leads to a big AVOID from me. I know that eating at a buffet post-2020 is generally taking your life into your own hands, but it's stark when you can observe the practices firsthand. Observations The worst part, so first stated: The patrons were very lax with using sanitary practices while at the buffet, including lots of plate reuse from table to buffet and one instance of a patron sampling just plated food with his hands and then using the same hand to grab the ladles down the line for more food. This all was aggravated by the restaurant running out of clean plates for 5-10 minutes. There was no plated table service on Sunday lunch, so it's buffet or nothing. If there was, it wasn't offered. You service yourself, including getting your own water cups, plates, and silverware. Water is on the table but not replenished. The staff was having difficulty keeping up with stocking the popular dishes, and naan. However, you could still fill your plate on a pass. read more

Great food. We tried multiple dishes and have never been disappointed. The chicken is very tender and the sauces are amazing

Incompetent lying staff. Waited over 40 mins for a take out order. Was told initially that it would be 10 more mins and then the waitstaff kept adding to the time saying oh it's got 5 more minutes. Ending up to be 40 minutes of my time. Total waste of my night. Not happy and won't be back. read more

Butter chicken and garlic naan were 10 outta 10. Delicious. Nice atmosphere in the building as well. Service was nice and respectful. Would very much recommend. read more

The food was excellent. First I got the Sichuan Lotus Root. Lotus Root is similar a potato but shaped like a pinwheel. They put Sichuan sauce on it and it's a bit spicy but so yummy. We also got the Baigan Saraf, which is Chinese eggplant along with pants and a lovely sauce that is yummy in rice or with naan. The eggplants was soft abs yummy and the sauce was nicely spiced without heat. My daughter also loved it. Then we had Bhindi Masala, this is an okra dish in a red sauce that I could eat all day. It's a vegan masala which I really liked also. And of course I got Naan. The naan was good. I couldn't eat all the food I got but I took it back to the hospice and we ate it all up. read more

* BAD FOR FOOD ALLERGIES * Highly disappointed in their mishandling of food allergies. I expected their "vegan" options would be dairy free but they have dairy yogurt in them. Dairy allergies and intolerances are some of the most common allergies and intolerances potentially causing serious medical issues. read more

They are always super friendly and their food is absolutely wonderful. My hubby is extremely picky when it comes to trying new places, especially when it comes to his favorite, butter chicken. I can 100% confirm it does not disappoint and he actually craves it! Their palak paneer, garlic naan, raita, and mango lassi are always on point and I can't get enough. Their restaurant looks cozy and comfortable as well and we will definitely try dine in soon since we always order pick up (I can't get refills on the lassi when we order pick up!) You must try it!! read more

Delicious food--the chicken tikka was so moist and the korma was so good. I loved the saffron rice which was extra with the tikka. The samosa and paneer were Great for our vegetarian. Very pleasant service with some tables outside overlooking water. We were passing thru town and lucked out. If I lived nearby I would go back for sure! read more

After reading several reviews before going to Saffron I wasn't sure what to expect. Sunday evening and we got there just before a couple large groups. Service was great and the food was excellent. Some language barriers--but that is more on me. It was worth the trip! read more

Saffron is delicious!! Their naan is to die for!! I always get the butter chicken or chicken tikka masala, but I need to branch out and try other things. My friend got something different (I can't remember the name of it) and it was yummy also! I've tried several Indian restaurants in the area and this is my favorite! read more

Horrible food, service and ambiance - do not come here!! Food was stale, and the server accidentally served us (vegetarian folks) a chicken starter - several were observing for religious reasons. Horribly loud, explicit music the entire time. read more

We have ordered dinner take out from here. Drove all the way from Springdale. This is the worst indian food we ever had. We ordered chilli chicken which is very bland, gobi Manchuria which is burnt. Both of them are very oily. For main course we ordered panneer biryani and goat biryani. Both of them are very watery at the bottom and each of them have 4 pieces each. All the quantities are very less. Never going to visit again. read more

This is our go to place for Indian cuisine. Today we had a simple lunch, soups and a few appetisers and of course naan. Everything was great from the moment we were seated to spending a few minutes for this review. Sorry no photos, we ate everything before I thought to take them. read more

We wanted to introduce the kids to Indian cuisine and choose Saffron. They loved it! We started with vegetable samosa then ordered buttered chicken, lamb vindaloo, tandoori chicken, and chicken tikka. We ordered too much, but everything was delicious. Above all else, the service was great. Everything came out warm and in a timely manner. Victoria was very attentive! I'm glad their first experience with Indian food was great. We will definitely be back! If you're craving Indian food, definitely visit Saffron. read more

Awful and terrible service. The rudest and disrespectful staff I have ever experienced. Took an hour to get our food during lunch with 3 tables filled, and the chef came and told us "it's not a fast food restaurant" just to serve us mediocre food. A forced 12% gratitude fee was added to our bill - I was not even mildly grateful for anything. Go for much better Indian restaurants like Flavors or Bawarchi. Wouldn't recommend this place. read more

We have been exploring the plethora of Indian food options lately and this place did NOT disappoint and so far... top of list. The food was hot, flavorful, exciting, and I mean all that you want food to be. It was also an experience! The naan bread is AMAZING! Any of the curry is spot on and even the chai tea was perfect. We have been anxiously awaiting a return and I see that in the near future. The ambience is relaxing and nice... you can look at it as fine dining but also feel okay going in your shorts and T. The staff members we met were great and friendly as well. Don't be afraid! Explore! read more

The best Indian food in NWA! We started with Samosas - hot and delicious. Lovely tamarind filling sauce. We moved onto classic butter chicken with basmati and naan. Also Onion Kulcha. Our highlight was a new dish we had not tried Kerala Pepper Chicken! Wow this was fantastic! Depth depth of flavor, touch spicy and well balanced. Can't wait to come again! read more

The food is good but when I ordered a bunch of stuff on Uber eats I barely got anything. The chicken portions had 2-3 little tiny cubes of chicken. I ordered 3 entrees and it's barely enough food for one single person. The small amount of food was good though along with the garlic naan. read more

Saffron is my favorite Indian food restaurant in the area, they have an extensive menu, which is well marked for people looking for Gluten Free, Vegetarian, and Vegan options. The food is delicious and the pricing is very reasonable for the quality of the food. The wait staff and management are best in class. Highly recommend. read more

I USE to love this place but recently the quality of food has dropped. Normally order Chicken Curry but now the curry taste water down, no flavor!! Found out there's new owner to this place and food quality dropped tremendously at the same time!!Not Sure if they are trying to make the food last longer then normal or what they are doing but the Food does Not Taste Good anymore!! I would come eat here almost every weekend, but now I have to find a new Indian Restaurant because this is not worth the money and time!!! read more

Food is always great. Call in if you're getting takeout to avoid the web fees. Spice level was on point. Will eat here often.
