    2. Chicken Tandoori
    Vince A.

    In a location off Hwy 290 where there's less restaurants, used to be Waffle House. Nothing fancy but that's why it's called " Express". I gave it 3.5 stars because of what I ordered: garlic Naan needs more "garlic" and kinda dry. Chicken tandoori was tasty with onion & green pepper . The sauce was pretty good . Will definitely try others like curry ( even have goat ), butter chicken, lamb saag , & vegetarian dishes ( which I will not try ). Have to do the $12.99 lunch Buffett next time . Will try others and rating may change . Nice to have an Indian place to eat nearby .

    You can pick 1-3 items - I chose 3.

    Update to my original reviews. They no longer offer buffet, now making them not stand out from the crowd, because Indian food is expensive and the buffet really set them apart. With no drink fountain and having to pay for multiple drinks and no buffet on top of no table side service and average ambiance I am now giving them the average rating of three stars for at least having very good food. Swing on by if you're wanting great Indian food - to take home.

    Great food, the naan was soft inside and lightly toasted. Larger portions, lots of quality rice.

    The food is delicious. I recommend and will come here again. My only suggestion is that a lower priced lunch menu, with combos be added.

    So this is a small buffet style restaurant in Spartanburg that tastes like Indian home cooking.

Saffron has a variety of spice levels. I found medium to be perfect for me. I may venture into even something slightly spicier next time. We had chicken tikka masala and the butter chicken. The garlic naan is some of the best I've ever eaten. Bottom line - Really good Indian food at the perfect spice level. The garlic naan was delicious. Bon appétit, y'all.

    It is their fault!!! This is why I can't eat at any other restaurant of great Indian food!! Yes,…read morethese are the owners of this restaurant have ruined me for life!!! I tried to go in two different restaurants where I live in the USA, And it's never good enough for me. I tasted good food in San Antonio, Texas. But I was being robbed. This restaurant has spoiled me for life. If I ever get back to Greenville South Carolina. This is the only restaurant to go to!!!! 5 star!!! And it's not just one item. It is every single piece of food that they create in this restaurant. Clean!! I mean the whole place is clean even the driveway even the parking lot everything. The locals complain about the traffic. But the real test is when you walk in and taste. This restaurant has ruined me for life. The best food all the way around!! Thank you. I have not been there in 16 years. One day soon.

We tried the Lunch special which is two plates for $20. You can choose from Butter Chicken or a veggie dish. You also get basmati rice, a large naan bread/roti, tomato salad and what looked like chick peas in a sweet sauce. There was also a small round pastry in the middle of the tray. Every thing was tasty. We expected the butter chicken to be bland but it was quite spicy so if you like it mild it's not! Server was friendly and helpful. Will definitely return and try a regular dish. Not overpriced either like some Indian restaurants

Do yourself a favor and try this place immediately. I want to try their entire menu and NEED their food at a minimum of once a month. You may think this post is dramatic, until you try it yourself and then you will understand the hype. We got the butter chicken main dish, the smoked paneer tikka bowl and the garlic and cheese naan. Everything was 100/100. We also tried two drinks, the mango lassi (holy yum) and the sweet lemon water (refreshing and delicious). I will be working my way through their entire menu. Also multiple Indian families came into dine while we were there, which is always a good sign!

    Y'all. We eat at a lot of Indian restaurants and at this point, it's difficult to stand out. When…read moreI tell you Persis stood out, believe me. We were in Greenville for the week on vacation. We had already had "okay" Indian delivery from another place in town on Monday. My wife was shopping at a store in the plaza, so I decided to go check Persis out rather than wait outside a dressing room. Saw they had Masala Dosa on the menu and promptly forgot which store my wife was in. The masala dosa was amazing. Crisp on the ends, good flavor, the masala in the middle was just spicy enough and nicely done. The tomato chutney had nice spice, and the coconut chutney was good also. The sambar was probably the best I've had in my life. I probably would have fought you for it. The lady managing the place was outgoing and welcoming and chatted me up while I was there. She heard we were traveling and told us we should come back on Friday for the buffet. Unlimited dosa? I ain't dumb. We went back two days later as instructed. The buffet was large and had a great selection of veg and non-veg selections, as well as a dosa station. Here are my highlights: Tawa Vegetables- basically griddled seasoned veg mix. These were a stand out item for us. Simple veg but done really well. Eggplant with green chilis - this was suggested to be spicy, but I didn't find it to be so, and I'm a bit of a weenie. It had good flavor, and Baingan Bharta is my all time favorite, so it was fun to try a different yet similar dish. Veg Biryani - light and well cooked. I enjoyed it very much. Butter Chicken - Y'all, this might be the first time in my life I've seen someone make butter chicken with texture and richness to this level. When they say it's their signature dish, I understand why. The chicken was grilled and had *actual* char marks, giving it actual texture and flavor. The curry tasted amazing and had so much butter that it was richer than Jeff Bezos. I almost couldn't finish it because it was so rich, but Mama didn't raise a quitter. 10/10, would eat again right now. There was a fish dish that I didn't try and a Chana Saag I just never made room for. There were many choices across a wide swath of foods and flavors. The Chai they had was also excellent. Apparently they make their own Chai Masala rather than a mix. The staff was friendly and checked on us many times. Overall, 10/10 and would go back to Greenville just to eat here again.

    This was the second visit for ordering takeout for a summer evening for a family of 6. Ordered two…read moreof three entrees each of saagwala paneer, paneer tikka masala and Malabar veg curry. For a price tag of $96, we received two pints of perfect sauces, one pint of steamed and 'ground to smoothness' spinach but that is where it stopped. There was hardly any paneer in the paneer tikka masala or saagwala paneer. I ended up roasting paneer at home to make the dishes presentation worthy and Malabar curry with mixed veggies was underwhelming as all we saw for veggies were a poor portion of frozen vegetables out of the grocery store's frozen aisle. What a let down for a hefty price. Disappointed. No pictures to post because I ended up cooking after paying that money.
