Perhaps I ordered poorly, but I'd hoped for better. Saffron has been here for a long time – time enough to improve, although I preferred its predecessor, as well as the much-missed Cwtch. I ordered the Lamb Tikka Masala from the 'specialities' menu, as I like lamb curries. However, it barely justified the name 'curry': sickly sweet more or less inedible sauce and little detectable spice. The Chana masala was ok. Enjoying an evening meal in a retaurant ought to be a relxing experience, but this was made impossible by the staff continuously shouting at each other. Maybe some curry enthusiasts view this as part of the 'essential atmosphere' of an 'Indian' restaurant. I am not one of them.

Booked in for Sunday lunch and had a very nice meal indeed. Completely full, but still a nice relaxed buzz. We had a mussels starter which had a beautiful light tasty broth and plump sweet mussels. We both had a roast, one beef one pork. All the components were outstanding, except the beef itself which let the side down slightly - just lacking in the flavour department. The only glitch was being immediately asked to order, rather than being asked whether we'd like a drink with which to peruse the menu. A bit odd and potential missed revenue opportunities given it's 'St David's Gin'. However we stuck to our game-plan and firmly refused to order until our gin-based aperitifs arrived. It was a great meal though and the service was otherwise excellent.

By far the best meal we have had in many years. The fillet steak was cooked to perfection as was the lobster. I could not fault anything. The young lady who served us was lovely and nothing was too much trouble. Stunning food beyond words. Thank you for making my birthday so special.

We have just had the most fantastic meal at St Davids Gin and Kitchen. Soup and Mackerel pate to die for. A lovely vegetarian dish (not for me) and a rib eye steak and half lobster which was incredible. The cheesecake finished the meal perfectly. Top marks to the kitchen staff and lovely waitress. Thank you

We’ve had food from Saffron each year we stay in St David’s and it’s never disappointed us. We had a great meal here this week, the sea bass fillets were huge and the sauce was delicious. My husband knows his curry’s and is always impressed. We’d highly recommend this place. Great food, great staff, what more do you want?

Was looking forward to a nice takeaway but very disappointing, very bland chicken dishes with flavourless sauces, most went in the bin, wish we had a McDonald’s instead, would have tasted better and be a lot cheaper. Rate 1* because can’t rate any lower.

The steak and lobster were both outstanding, as were the side dishes and accompaniments. The seaweed gin was fantastic, nothing like you’d expect, and the service was absolutely top notch. Having dined in all of the main dinner locations in St David’s, this is easily the best. Very strongly recommended…!

Food was suberb. We ordered a whole lobster and a separate meal of arancini plus starters which was superb! Likewise, wine and previous Gin was excellent. However, we were left very disappointed by service and attitude this evening. Having come out for a ‘special’ meal as a couple, we really enjoyed our two courses. We were then, unexpectedly presented with the bill shortly after having finished eating and without previous request. We noted that two glasses of wine had been omitted from our bill so my husband went to the counter to ensure that these were added so we paid fairly. These were added and my husband returned to the table having paid, albeit still hoping to enjoy the gin bar and rest of our evening. Upon doing so, however, a gentleman approached us to say that he needed the table back ‘now’ for a’second sitting’ and we therefore had to leave without warning. This did not seem to apply to other tables around us who were there before our arrival. At no point had we been informed of this. Disappointed after having spent a considerable amount of money on a special evening out as a couple. It would have been polite to have had notice on time allocated to a booking, an approach with notice re, table being required or fairness in comparison to other tables who had been there longer than us. We had intended to buy seaweed gin to take away for family but felt we did not have opportunity to do so. As stated, food was super but service requires review. We hope for better next time as we thoroughly enjoyed the food itself and would really love to support a small business.

NEVER AGAIN at Y GEGIN TYDDEWI / GIN AND KITCHEN RESTAURANT!!! POOR SERVICE AND TOUGH CHEWY LOBSTER. I love Lobster especially for a celebration treat. My husband booked our lobster a month in advance with Y Gegin TYDDEWI / St Davids Gin and Kitchen. We have dined at the Gin and Kitchen 7 times over the last 4 years and always ordered the same. We have always enjoyed the food, atmosphere and service. I usually have a whole Lobster and my husband has the surf and turf (Steak and Half Lobster) on this occasion we were celebrating our Anniversary. Our meals were served and I tried cutting the lobster but I couldn’t cut it because it was so tough and really chewy, one bite was enough. I explained to the waitress and she said she would call the owner. The owner ignored her and carried on behind the bar/counter, attending to other tables etc etc. Meanwhile our meals were getting cold and he could see that I wasn’t eating my meal. The waitress reminded him a couple of times but he assumed I would just eat my tough chewy lobster. My husband’s half lobster was fine and tender, a significant difference. Eventually the owner attended the table next to us and I managed to grab his attention and explained to him that my lobster was tough and said to him, “look I can’t cut it”. He said “that’s how they come”. I said “no this lobster is over cooked and tough”. He then said “what do want to do about it”? I said “I would like a lobster, have you got another lobster”? He said “yes” but he was very reluctant to change my meal. Meanwhile both meals were getting really cold, the side of broccoli and chunky chips were wasted because they went cold. Disappointingly we eat separately for our wedding anniversary celebration. When the replacement lobster came back, half was OK and the other half was still chewy. I think they gave me the untouched half of my original lobster. Whilst eating my replacement lobster he never once came over to ask if everything was OK. Unfortunately for the owner, I will never dine at this restaurant again after his unprofessional handling of a complaint. He missed out on drinks reorder and deserts. Any other restaurant would have changed it without hesitation.

Staff were amazing and friendly, the food was so devine!

This place came as a recommendation, and it didn't disappoint. The food was just great. We both had the sea bream, which was catch of the day. It came on the bone but I asked if they could fillet mine, which they were very happy to do. The wine selection was beyond reproach. Service at table was quick and very friendly, and all done with a smile. I have no hesitation in recommending for an excellent meal.

Visited Saffron on the last night of my holiday, as it had been a while since I had had a sit-down Indian meal. While it was quiet there with only one other couple arriving during my visit it must be remembered that I went mid-week and did go early in the night - their phone was very busy though The good reports posted on Tripadvisor were true to their word I enjoyed the best and tastiest Chicken Passanda I have had for a long time. The meal was served in good time and the sauce didn't have that oily film that sadly appears in so many takeaways. The service was very professional with the staff being friendly and allowing me to enjoy my meal and not be overly attentive.

Dined on a Friday evening. Tried to ring for a takeaway but was cut off twice. So walked to the restaurant to sit in, Very busy with take out, sit in service was extremely slow with only 3 table occupied. Waited 30 minutes before we got a drink. Food arrived after an hour. Staffing issues me thinks. Having said that, when the food arrived it was beautiful . Tasty, good sized portions and hot. Good value. Hopefully when we come back the staffing shortage will be resolved.

Dissapointing. Think should stick to takeaway. Messy tables stayed throughout my visit. Remains of chutney tray and curry :/ Flies buzzing around tables. Waiter didnt smile and came across as unapprachable. Soft drink was flat. Curry sauce and rice was okay but meat was tough. Lots of loud chatter, laughter and machine noise coking from kitchen. NOT a restaurant vibe.. do not recommend to sit it.

I don’t get down to the St David’s area very often, and it’s been a while since I last had a takeaway, so I decided to order one from the Saffron restaurant, and I’m so glad I did. I ordered the Sheek kebab, followed by the Special Biryani. Both were cooked superbly and were incredibly tasty. They didn’t scrimp on the portions either! The staff also deserve a mention as they were very friendly and customer focussed; something which can be sadly lacking some times.

We got a takeaway from here as it is the only indian restaurant anywhere near our location. It was an okay Indian but we wouldn’t get from there again. We ordered a chicken tikka dhansak which was pretty good, and a vegetable jalfrezi which wasn’t great. It was really pasty in flavour and not saucy at all. We ordered mushroom pakora but a tub of curries mushroom type stuff arrived, not pakoras at all. Our cheese naan was definitely missing cheese, or they use the tiniest bit ever and it’s not visible. The rice portion is really small, and we was sharing so not great. Poppodoms and dips were great.

By chance my wife and I walked past Saffron and decided to give it a go. The staff encouraged us to try the set Tali menu however they also gave us the take away menus if we wanted other options. We shared the meat option and it was more than enough for both of us. My wife is gluten intolerant and doesn’t do spicy and the staff and chefs were very accomodating. She almost licked the bowls clean. We couldn’t even decide on a favourite dish, all 5 options were just as good if not better than the last.

We ordered a takeaway tonight and were very disappointed. The biryani seemed to consist of curried potatoes and little else. A pity as the restaurant has a good reputation locally and the choices offered by the competition - four pubs offering the same menu - are very limited. Come on St Davids you can do better than this!

I used to visit Saffron often when it was an eat in restaurant, pre Covid lockdowns. It was very good; the food and the service. I have re-visited many times since it became a ‘take away’ and it has slowly declined in the quality of food it prepares. Today I ordered a take away and was told to pick up in 45 minutes. Fine! I ordered, amongst other things, Lookmani sea bass, a favourite of mine. When I arrived 45 minutes later, I was told they had no sea bass and was offered a prawn dish instead. As compensation I was given a tub of rice. The restaurant had my phone number and didn’t call me to tell me they were out of sea bass, and ask me for an alternative. They waited until I got there and then I had to wait an extra 10 minutes. Unfortunately the prawns in my curry were over cooked, hard and rubbery. The onion bajis were also over cooked, probably because they were waiting so long. The whole meal was of poor quality. The poorest I had ever had. Saffron has unfortunately lost its pride and confidence since lockdown and now, with a typical take away attitude, doesn’t really care about the quality of its products, imo!

I went back in in Aug 2020.. took away a King Prawn Vindaloo, rice, Bombay potato, dhal ... all were extremely good .. very tasty indeed.. I’d go back for sure! The only thing during the week that was a bit challenging was getting through on the phone and being able to place an order at the desk without a lot of interruptions.. basically due to one guy trying to multi task doing both .. if you can put up with that the food is well worth it.

We would definitely recommend Saffron. We have had a take-away on a number of occasions. It is always delicious.

Had a takeaway from here. Absolutely delicious. Tasty and not at all oily as some takeaways can be. We had the saffron seabass. Would definitely go again if back in the area.

I think this was one of the best Indian meals I’ve ever had! Given the current climate it’s take out only, the family and I had a great meal the other evening. Staff were really pleasant and the good was superb. Enough for leftovers the next evening!

We would certainly visit again if we are ever in the area. The food was delicious and everyone in our party enjoyed their dishes because the quality of the produce was great. The duck was especially gorgeous; cooked to perfection and melt in the mouth. The king prawns were huge; no half measures! Definitely good value for money.

Visited on a quiet Wednesday evening. The menu had all the favourites on it plus a good selection of more unusual dishes. Portions were a good size and the service was very good.

Great meals for all four of us celebrating a birthday! Attentive waiter, good wine, great lager, but top of the chart was the Asian cuisine, just wonderful!

We ordered a takeaway when the restaurant wasn't particularly busy and were asked to come back to collect it in 20 minutes, which we did. We then sat waiting for a further 40 minutes. When the member of staff priced up the order, it came to £10 more than it should have done - amended only when it was questioned. The food (vegetarian) was bland and oily. It seemed hugely overpriced for what it was, too (even after the 'correction'). The bhuna tasted as though it had been made with frozen vegetables, and the chips didn't seem freshly fried. The rice was OK.The staff weren't particularly friendly.Some things don't cost much to do. These are the basics. The welcome and food in this restaurant could both be improved.

I wrote a 5* star review for this Indian last year, but after my most recent visit and based on discussions with other members of my extended family who have eaten here recently I have revised my opinion of this restaurant. I know this place is extremely busy during the summer, but my most recent visit was on a Monday night in November and the place was pretty empty. In fact only two other tables were being used and we were placed right next to them which was odd as conversations could be heard by everyone. Not my preference when eating out! I can also concur with other reviewers who comment on the over-attentiveness of staff - I found it quite off-putting. With regards to the food our poppadoms and pickles were OK but I like one of my dips to be spicy and this was lacking. As a starter I had the tandoori chicken, but again this was disappointingly bland and without flavour. I finished with a madras king prawn. Although my mushroom rice was good my curry was very gravy like in consistency with a few king prawns thrown in. The spice heat was fine but the eating experience was quite boring.It's great that the most south western corner of Wales has an Indian - I just think more similar restaurants close by would challenge the standards offered by Saffron. Currently it needs it!

Ordered from here as it was recommended by the owner of the lodge we're staying in. We were charged £42 for a tandoori chicken starter, a single curry, a pilau rice, 1 chips, 2 naan breads and some poppadoms and dips (plus a scandalous £7 to deliver from 12 minutes away). We were told it would be delivered within an hour and 20 minutes, it arrived over 2 hours later and was cold. The food had no taste. The curry had no spice at all (restaurant named seven spice yet couldnt spare one to put in our curry) it was essentially a tomato sauce. The chips tasted awful and worst of all the chicken in both the starter and the curry was very clearly not fresh chicken. It's frozen chicken, as you can see from the photos. £42 for cold food, that isn't fresh, that tastes bland and is only coming from just over 10 minutes away is daylight robbery. Don't waste your money here like we did. Most of it went in the bin. Disgusting and disgraceful. Only gets 1 star because TripAdvisor doesn't allow minus ratings.

I had one of the best takeaways of my life from here, delivered to a wet and windy campsite one night. It was heavenly, every dish was licked clean. 10 months later we live here, had another go and it was okay. Still one of the better Indian takeaway options though. 0 for atmosphere as I've never been in. Kinda looks grim driving past 😁

Travelling around, came across this Indian takeaway thought I would give it a try. I was amazed. The chef was excellent, and the food was cooked to perfection. A real hidden gem! Will be coming back soon.
