Food and service was above average and nothing to complain about.
Not one of the best places for an intimate meal. Decor felt a little cold. Perhaps some warm colours instead of magnolia? But still it was clean.
Not on my top 5, but I would eat here again.
A slightly tricky one to review. Having had great reports about this restaurant we decided to give it a try. On arrival (we riskily hadn't booked in advance) it was clear they were extremely busy, being a Saturday evening around 8:40pm. There was a noticeable mild air of controlled chaos which we found somewhat off-putting. However, after popping out for a quick drink before returning, we were found a table quickly and service was excellent. We ordered poppadoms, 2 main dishes off the signature special list and a lentil side - and were warned this might be too much food. Food came quickly and was delicious. All 3 dishes tasted vey different with individual spices being detectable. Naan was fresh, had that soft-steamed-bun texture and was a perfect accompaniment. My partner found some of the dishes (his main and the lentil dish) a little too sweet, but that is a matter of taste. We were not able to finish all the food so the ordering advice had been correct! Next time a slightly calmer atmosphere would be appreciated by these diners, but the food was great and we will definitely be back.
Had a meal at the Saffron with my partner and daughter last night and . The service was fantastic, attentive, polite always with a smile. Food was sublime. Poppadoms with different yet tasty pickles. Amazing starter and mains. I had a special tandoori sizzling dish which whilst hot had so much taste and depth. This was my child's first Indian restaurant experience so the chef made her dishes off menu so she had the "best food ever". Fantastic. The customer sat behind us was full of praise also we overheard as we left other diners saying how amazing it was too.
Amazing meal. Really enjoyed. Friendly and happy staff and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Love how the restaurant is sectioned off so it's more romantic. Great service and a great atmosphere
i visited last weekend and was very impressed , the food was served in good time the waiters were there when needed . the meals were very tasty , wife had a korai which came out on a sizzling hot plate , and i had a dansak which was slightly creamy with a spicy after kick loved it ....ive eaten at many indian restaurants this one excels taste wise ...

Excellent food.. reasonable prices.. quality service... if you visit Lincoln you must include a meal at Saffron.
First class cuisine and service. Reasonable prices and a cut above your ordinary Indian restaurants. Highly recommended
What a fantastic place... service was spot on.. food was absolutely superb... loved it... what an experience... we will be back soon xxxx
We wouldn't even entertain going to any other curry house. Saffron serves great food and the staff are always friendly and attentive
Love the curry here, very tasty and fresh. Reasonable price too. Only criticism is the portions are too big!
Absolutely fantastic food, accompanied by quick, polite, unobtrusive service. Definitely worth the hike up the hill
