Saffron restaurant in Solihull - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Popped in tonight (25-7-24 ) for a curry with my husband, must say the curry was amazing. The service was ok. We had to ask if our drinks were on the way after waiting a while. Plus, we just felt a bit rushed after we had finished our meal. As soon as the table was cleared, they brought over the bill. We didn't even ask for the bill. It would have been nice to have been offered a wet wipe to freshen up your hands. It just felt like you have eaten. Please leave! Would have brought family to try it, but I wouldn't recommend dining here at all.

I ordered my food at 4:20 and it took ages to arrive, my food wasn’t hot

Website said they catered for Gluten Free diets. Reviews on TripAdvisor were good, so booked to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. What a let down and disappointment, Not one starter for my husband because of cross contamination, he is Coeliac and requires gluten free foods. Lots of Curry's and Rice which are naturally gluten free anyway!!! No gluten free deserts either. We had a lovely waitress called Angel. We will not be going back. If your Coeliac don't bother going is my advice.

Fourth of fifth time coming to Saffron now - consistently great service, love the food, pretty and just an all-round nice place to be for an evening. Also, nice atmosphere for kids - my 3 year old nephew knocked his head and was sad, the staff noticed and brought him over a chocolate :)

Been here once food was terrible and cold I read some other reviews and seen the way the owner replied rude and not open to any criticism whatsoever 0/10 wouldn't eat here to save my life

Both curry’s were watery & bland so very disappointed as always have lovely food from this restaurant . Was very disappointed with taste and texture

A group of us were in from the states and searching for a pub. Little did we know, many pubs don’t serve food on Mondays. We leaned this AFTER the Uber left. Had a drink at The Dog Inn and the nice folks there suggested Saffron. So glad they did! The staff was exceptional! From the minute we walked in to saying Good Night… even helped charge my phone . The food was amazing! We all were so happy with our choices and enjoyed sharing and trying new things. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

as always great food and quickly delivered

Went for a meal tonight as a family of 3. Thought that the service was excellent. The staff were so attentive and welcoming. The food was absolutely amazing! It came out so hot and fresh. Everything was delicious. We ordered the veg starter platter for 2, curries, naan, rice and chips and everything was divine. At the end of the meal, my little girl bumped her head and cried. The waiter rushed over with a chocolate to cheer her up! We will definitely return!

lovely curry just a bit spicy

We always eat in normally but thought we would try take away today and the food as always was delicious and delivered within half hour of ordering which is fab ☺️

Popped in with my wife last Thursday evening and had a fantastic curry. Vegetable rogan and a lamb vindaloo with rice. Both curries were very good, all the staff were polite and friendly and it's nice and clean inside and out. Definitely worth paying a visit.

Blimey! We found this restaurant on Google search during our golf trip to The Belfry. Genuinely, this was the best Indian curry restaurant that I have ever visited, which is high praise, because I normally don’t take Curry as my first choice. I wish Saffron was nearer my home because I would definitely be a regular here. Many thanks for lovely food.

always excellent food and service

We went last week with friends and decided to go again this week. I am such a fussy eater but this place is amazing. The chicken pakora starter was fresh and delicious and the chicken tikka dopiaza was just perfect. My husband had shish kebab starter and I can't remember his main but he thoroughly enjoyed it too. They may seem small portions but I assure you there is plenty. This is our new weekly place!

Due to another place wouldn’t seat us even though we had book saying no it Ramadan we ended up here, food was lovely, friendly with my grandchildren, service was great , thank you guys

Amazing food and I am really fussy but this is now my favourite restaurant. X4 people and bill was £200 but well worth it as a lot of cobra and wine also consumed

Cannot fault anything a.j superb waiter.as all the staff.food always fantastic!!love it at saffron!!

the food was excellent and the staff were very helpful and friendly

Excellent service and well educated staff with delicious food. Strongly Recommended

Sorry to say restaurant has gone downhill. Prawns were so small they got lost in the rice, very small portion of cold chips. Not even a poppadom added to bag, as usual. Will be going elsewhere in future. Used to be my favourite Indian restaurant.

I've never had such a disgusting meal in my life it was watery bland and all round the most disgusting curry I've ever had I don't recommend this place

Food was excellent 👌 😋 definitely go again

Part of a 60th birthday meal we were the only party in the restaurant 2 hrs waiting for starters food was awful , cold not a curry but a paste. Not one person in a party of 30 people had a nice meal , shocking 1st & last time . Expensive too for the small portions would never recommend.

Delicious as always.. thank you

Can not faullt the food at all Yes it was valentines night and busy, to wait well over1 an hour for the meal to arrive, is that okay? It would have helped if someone had said something about the food taking longer, no communication at all, we had to ask. Was there too many online orders, as we saw those going out, and then everyones food more or less came out at the same time

Lovely curry fresh and hot had a prawn Madras only thing I can say was the prawns were a little over cooked otherwise lovely curry

Such a lovely restaurant. Very friendly people. Food is always amazing

Great food and really quick delivery.

Love the food, the staff everything

This place is right in my doorstep and have only really started to take advantage in the last 12 months. Can’t say I’ve had a bad meal here in all my visits. I’ve tried a different dish in every occasion and all have been well presented and extremely tasty. Would definitely recommend to anyone that enjoys a curry. Staff are very polite and tentative. Prices are reasonable for both food and drink. Give it a try, you’ll be pleasantly surprised…

arrived super early, they just left us with it even though we said we wasn't ready for it yet, hense we chose for it to be delivered at a time that was appropriate for us.. and to top it off, we decided to just stop what we were doing and chose to eat the food as it wouldn't have tasted very nice warmed up, and it was already cold. all of it! Sooo disappointed. We always order from here and normally love it, but tonight was poor service and cold food.

The food is always nice and tasty. But the portions are getting smaller the chicken tikka lumps are a lot smaller than they used to be . The containers are smaller . Chicken is not an expensive item . Come on saffron look after your long term customers:🌦️

food was almost cold and extremely Salty. it was disgusting.

Didn’t eat in so can’t tell you about atmosphere but the food and delivery was spot on. Beautiful food 10/10

The blends of spices were nice, but the significant delay in delivery meant that the food was quite cold, and my son’s half chicken had become quite dry.

Good food only thing that let it down was soggy chips but I don’t think they can help that, other then that was bang on, delivery was spot on aswell came 10 minutes early

This place was absolutely incredible. The food was beautiful and tasted so good. The service was top notch with very friendly and professional staff. I look forward to eating here again on future trips to Birmingham.

Extremely disappointed, the chicken was dry and tasted as if was cooked the day before, the lamb chops were inedible, even my son in law left his chicken curry. Very disappointed, usually I give them 5 out of 5, I have to be honest it will be a long time before I order from here again.

I have emailed the restaurant with photos of the food i have not received a response after a week we always order from here with no problems before but our recent order came cold, missing our popadoms and the curry had so much oil/ water in it ruined the rest of the food

Beautiful food and lovely and hot

Poor food, have eaten here in the past with no complaints after tonight we will find another Indian to tru

They sorted out the issue where 2 of the curry’s had leaked all over the other containers & bag I phoned & sent picture to them. The lady said it was up to me if I returned the original order but they would make the same order & delivered it quite quickly, the driver wanted the original order back. No issues I wasn’t going to eat but make your mind up. Sadly the food that was delivered wasn’t good. My children normally eat anything but they even left half. Sadly won’t be ordering again.

The food quality was good, but cold because the large bottle of tango was placed against the food in the same bag. We had to warm some of it up and this seemed to dry out the food. Disappointing because we normally love Saffrons.

Food was freezing cold very disappointing. I’d like to request a refund had to throw it away.

I’ve been a vegetarian for the past 10 years and having eaten at the saffron on a number of occasions. My son took me and my wife for a meal at the saffron for my birthday. I ordered a vegetable patia for my main and while I started to eat it I found meat in the curry. This made me feel sick and I was almost vomiting. I then reported it and left the restaurant. If your a vegetarian DO NOT EAT HERE I will never eat at this restaurant again

Lovely staf food came quick and was lovely. They even ordered a taxi for us free of charge from our hotel! 5/5 would recommend

Got order wrong. Food was average there is better Indian restaurants around the area. Quite expensive for small portions. Starting cleaning table next to us with strong smelling spray ( like bleach) whilst we was eating. Interior is lovely, however glass table had trapped foods. Your also sitting very close to others.

Food used to be really nice, don’t know what happened, but curry tasted just like a runny base sauce, unpleasant, samosas and spring rolls didn’t seemed cooked, pale and soggy.. prices have shot up also, such a shame, we did like going into the restaurant, and have ordered a number of times before. All this after having to call them up over a hour after food was meant to be delivered ! Very disappointed, won’t be ordering again.

Cold food, Naan bread cold and hard tikka masala mainly just sauce disappointed

Driver decided to go full his car up with fuel after picking our meal up. It was still 30 minutes after I phoned the restaurant to find out where my order was. They advised me it was already with the driver. It’s a 3 minute walk to our house from the restaurant. Delivery was only £1 so thought I would try it. Will go in person next time.

The lamb, chicken curry an biryanis were nice but was not happy with the food being so late

Food was delicious as always and piping hot.. it was late, however understandable as peak time on a Friday

Chicken jalfrazi was tasteless

Lamb madras was full of flavour.

Nice food but shame missing items ,phoned to let them know & they brought the rest but 35 minutes to late

Lamb a bit fatty bar from that all good

Extremely unprofessional i ordered 6 chipatis and girl who took the order said 10 mins , however i waited 30 minutes just for 6 chipatis . If you are busy and can't complete the order , simply say you can't do it . Extremely disappointed experience.

Ordered food from then on Uber Eats at 7:50 on a Friday, google said "Not too busy". Food didn't arrive until 9:35. Chicken Dopiaza tasted like a chicken stock cube with some onions and watery tomato sauce, no colour or flavour. Onions bhajis were stringy and soggy, more like pakoras but no crisp to them. Disappointed by the food, took so long to arrive. Won't be ordering again.

Enjoyed the meal and the staff were very nice

Lovely experience nice tasty food and exceptional service

Best place ever gorgeous food and amazing customer service

I ordered bhuna, think I got a korma?

Never turned up phoned restaurant she went to check on order then cut phone off

Went to the saffron restaurant on Saturday I thought the service was good curry was really nice good price to definitely recommend this restaurant I definitely would come back here

Great food and good service, I made an error with my order and driver was polite ,apologies

I ordered 2 lamb biryani 1 chicken biryani lamb curry an 2 pashwari naan an 1 plain naan an they didn't send an chutneys or chilli's wasn't happy about that Normally when I order they send chutneys an chilli's I had to eat the biryanis dry not happy I'm a regular customer

Food delivered earlier than stated. The food quality and quantity is excellent. Tasty and done to heat you want. Will definitely order from here again.

Loved the steak - well done without being dry.

Nice food but £10 for a curry which isn’t a big portion at all is a bit steep, also £1 for a papadom is extortion 🤣

Really nice Indian curry, free popadoms would of been nice as ordered over £22

Lovely food. A bit slow with the service. Otherwise a lovely place

Beautiful place so thought we’d order the food is absolutely lovely fresh and just exactly the same as when your there

Prawn puri was a wrap not bread - king prawn curry tasted watered down

Lovely place great food friendly staff

Nice curry but wrong order received

Wouldn’t order from here again. The rice was awful, had a horrible taste to it also very watery. It tasted like it needed washing and was definitely old microwaved rice. The curry was bland, the sauce was thick and glupy. Chicken was mushy. A big waste of £17

The lamb spinach balti is excellent. Very tender meat, lots of spinach, really hit the spot.

Great food, great service, nice decor & a relaxed atmosphere!!

Good tasty food and great service

Fabulous evening, the service in the Saffron is 5star very helpful, food was really good we shall be going again thank yoh Saffron

Outstanding food. The staff are most pleasant & polite. Could not fault a thing. Presentation, quality, portion size, taste, price, all fabulous. It’s a yes from me 👍

curry was really watery and chicken was dry shame normally food is really good

Had to warm everything up ! 2 frying pans for curry, air fryer for chips, naans are terrible so do our own & the mint sauce is like toothpaste! Never again!!

Lovely relaxed restaurant. Decor is beautiful. Food was amazing . Will be going again .

First time using this restaurant and the food was lovely. Really liked that you could customise the heat of the dish during ordering, as well as there being a vegetable tikka masala available for our veggie daughter.

Lovely food best indian takeaway in the area but really small portions as quite expensive

£50 order and it was cold and the portion size was pathetic and the food was terrible will not be ordering from here again very disappointed

Food was delicious and piping hot on arrival, definitely recommend

Food wasn't terrible but wasn't overly wow, would recommend it if you needed to make a quick reservation.

Reserved a table on Wednesday for a work group booking of 8. Restaurant was slightly busy, drinks order taken and drinks arrived swiftly. Plenty of options available, had poppadoms with a chutney tray for starter (not complimentary, unlike some restaurants) I ordered a chicken balti medium with mushroom rice and peshwari naan. Food was hot tasty and generous portions, and I didn't manage to eat it all. Would definitely recommend and would visit this restaurant if I was in the area again. Well worth trying !

Price was more as compared with quantity

Best in Birmingham for me by a mile. Will be back soon!

Saffron can do no wrong in my eyes. Best local Asian restaurant in our community. Great service as usual

Absolutely delicious food, we was missing one item but it was refunded straight away

So disappointed the food has gone right down hill, watered down chicken balti “disgusting”, we will never order from here again. It tasted like a cheap tin of vegetable soup with chicken in it, most of it went in the bin!

Forgot part of order, but came round straight away and delivered 👍

Food took a very long to come out, over half an hour at least after starters to mains. Waitress was good until we had to return one of the dishes back to the kitchen - after that she made a face the whole time and was rude in tone. As I was walking out, she said ‘oh my god’ to her colleague as if she couldn’t wait for us to leave. It was really unprofessional and unnecessary. Would never come back here - all over 1 dish which had to be replaced.

should clearly state how long delivery is, I have young children and 30 mins late is a joke.

Have never once had a bad meal from Saffron. The food is excellent, service is amazing and decor and ambience top notch. The chef has never disappoint and the owners are lovely people. Can't say much more than that other than if I could give it a 10, I would do.
