"While staying in the Pittsburgh area a lot over the past year, I've been trying many different places... I love really good Pakistani food, and am not nearly as fond of Indian food, but I came here one night for dinner and absolutely appreciated the owner's service, as well as the food they make here! I tried several things: Vegetable Pakora These unfortunately were sent back because they were slightly over done, but they apologized sincerely for that and removed them from the bill. Vegetable Biryanni Absolutely Excellent! Nice and spicy and loaded with robust, authentic flavors!! This paired with their raita was amazing!!! And wow, was it spicy!! Keema Muttar This was decent, but was a little saucier than I prefer (and than I'm used to). The flavors were excellent! The meat was lamb and there was the slight flavor of that. But overall, it was a decent dish. Bullet Naan I've never heard of this, so I had to try it, especially since it's made with green pepper and supposedly spicy. It was definitely spicy, but their naan was very thin. I actually prefer it thin, so I don't get filled up on bread. The only issues I've got is I eat in the traditional way, with my hands and in order to do so, you fold the naan or roti in half and then break off a piece Well, many of these places cut it into quarters which limits ow you can break off pieces. The other huge gripe I have is that they add ghee or butter to it, thus making it a greasy mess. Aside from those issues, it tasted great. Roti This resembled the bullet naan, but without spices, but with so much greasiness, the last slice was completely soaked and oily. The flavor was decent though. Lastly, He offered me mango lassi and I've not had lassi in probably 35 years, when I was last in Pakistan.... This lassi was very tasty and you could see and taste the fresh mango in it. Overall, this is my favorite Indian restaurant in the Pittsburgh area so far... I've tried several, but they do it the most authentic and best here. I'd definitely suggest it for those seeking some really good, authentic flavors. I'll be back!"

"NEWEST UPDATE 8 3 23: We did try Masala again, and ordered all VERY mild, but their level of spice is just too much for us. Very good food, but too spicy for our palate, so for those who like that, it 's great food! : UPDATE And now, this was the fastest owner response to a complaint we 've ever had! The owner called me approx 1.5 hours after I called in to tell them about the spice level problem, and apologized profusely. He hadn 't even read this review yet. He is refunding our money, said the kitchen mixed up our order with another who wanted medium plus , he has new staff, and so yes, we WILL try them again. He could not have been more apologetic or nicer, and so I will update this review once more after we order mild in the future, and get to EAT mild . : Fastest review turnaround I 've ever done. Ordered at 10:51 a.m. today, it was ready by 11:04, we finished tasting at 11:25. There is VERY little chicken in the korma maybe 4 little pieces and the rest sauce. Both the aloo gobi and the korma were ordered Mild , and BOTH dishes are far too spicy for us to eat. The just over $30 for small portions of overly spiced food is now in the trash. And when we called back to ask if a mistake had been made, as we could not eat their food, the woman answering the phone didn 't seem to care AT ALL. This was our first and now LAST time ordering food from this restaurant."

"My husband and I were in town on business, and were specifically looking for an Indian restaurant. We are very glad TripAdvisor reviews led us to Saffron. We arrived just as they opened for their dinner service, at 5 PM, on a week night. The restaurant was empty, but we were met with a big hello and smile from the young lady at the front reception area. We ordered the Butter Chicken $16 made with the addition of coconut milk per my inquiry, because I like coconut , the Chicken Begam Bahar $17 , garlic naan bread $3.25 , and a mango lassi $4. They also brought us a basket with, I think, papadam crackers, and 2 different dipping sauces. The latter was complimentary. Our meals were served fairly quickly, and oh my! OUTSTANDING! Everything, right down to the crackers, was absolutely delicious. And the lassi was the best I’ve ever had very rich, and creamy. As an aside, patrons did start to fill up the restaurant as the night went on. As per the small ish parking lot right under the foot bridge, it’s probably best if you can dine earlier in the evening than later so you can snag a spot. But nonetheless, eat at Saffron whenever you get the opportunity. We travel to the DC area often, and will return to Saffron. I also want to say that if you have time, walk around the back of the little strip mall to visit the Indian and Middle Eastern grocers, which are almost next to each other. Both are gems, as well! In summation: 1. GREAT food 2. Friendly, prompt service 3. Clean tables 4. Good sized portions 5. Bonus grocers in rear of complex"
