    Unfortunately I can't give half a star and even that would be generous. It's 4.30am on a Sunday morning and I should be sleeping, yet I am awake with the worst stomach ache, sitting on the toilet and making my own butter chicken no thanks to these guys. Have had the runs all night. Would not recommend this place to anyone. The food is completely inedible.

    This place served me the best Indian food I’ve eaten in the five years I’ve lived in Australia. Really friendly and helpful service. I’m so happy that I have found this place! Thank you 🙏

    When deciding last minute to organise a work lunch for 20 people, Cafe Saffron couldn't have been more helpful. The food was to such a high standard, flavours were amazing and for a reasonable price. Everything was boxed up really well and the delivery was prompt and cost effective. Will definitely be ordering again.

    My 16 year old daughter and I had the most amazing meal here. The service was super friendly, the owners are obviously passionate about their business. They had only been doing dine in for 5 days after rebuilding after the 2022 floods and have done a beautiful job of it. I will definately eat here again next time I'm visiting the area.

    Have been to this place few times as we have to come here for work purpose. I will say that it's the best Indian restaurant I have ever been in Australia. All their Meals are freshly cooked in order. Great place to enjoy tasty food with Family. The decor is great with marble table and comfy seats. Light fitting creates the pleasant atmosphere on the top. Will highly recommend. Must Visit. 👍👍

    The food was disgusting. Received our "food" 1.5 hours after arriving. After finishing the "food" we felt sick immediately, found out that we got food poisoning from this place. Would not recommend, please stay away for your own good.

    Ordered tandoori chicken full but it looks like coles prepacked full chicken

  • 5/5 Achha 2 years ago on Google
    I ordered the tikka chaat. It was yummy, well priced, and healthy. I was sad that they were not better appreciated by locals who were all congregating at the awful vegetarian cafe down the street. Maybe Nighttime us better for this restaurant

    Amongst the terrible scenes left by the floods is this gem cafe saffron. Absolutely amazing food with even better service. Will definitely return for the best Indian I have had.

  • 5/5 Benjamin C. 1 year ago on Google
    Best naan and butter chicken in Australian hands down. Soon they opened back up I had Indian from here 3 days in a row. Good taste, timely and well organised.

  • 5/5 Lismore E. 2 years ago on Google
    Very very lovely food , Service is excellent. The vindaloo was perfect, as was the coconut rice, garlic naan and raita. We will be going back again soon.
