Saffron Summer in Reigate and Banstead

Horrible didn’t give us what we asked for most of order was missing was stone cold would never come here again spend so much money for nothing

I have been here a few times now and I really like this restaurant. Our server has been so helpful and professional each time. The food is delicious with great flavours and not at all greasy unlike a few Indian meals I have had recently. I give this restaurant 5 stars

The food was OK but not spectacular, trying for an upmarket feel but need to up the food quality.

The vegetable jalfrezi was absolutely delicious and probably the best curry I have ever eaten!! I am delighted to have found this little gem of a restaurant in Reigate. It is stylish, clean and fresh with the most attentive, polite staff. I would thoroughly recommend it. (Very close to multi-storey car park , only 50p)

I had the best vegetable jalfrezi ever, in fact it is probably the best flavoured curry I have ever eaten!!! I am delighted to have found this little gem of a restaurant in Reigate. It is stylish, clean and fresh with the most attentive, polite staff. I thoroughly recommend it!

Came from Newcastle for work and read brilliant reviews about this restaurant so booked it. Absolutely outstanding food and exceptional service. This is a must try!

Delicious food, friendly service. Will be back again!!

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Saffron Summer. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was wonderful! This is definitely our new favourite Indian restaurant nearby!

Just come back from a lovely evening at Saffron Summer. We had the poppadoms with homemade chutneys, chicken trilogy, vegetable samosas, prawn curry and butter chicken. All were very nicely presented and incredibly delicious. The service was exceptional. A very underrated spot in Reigate - we will be back!

Excellent dinner and lovely staff - will come back!

Had the best curry ever, myself and my family loved the food and the attentiveness of the team, which was non intrusive. The restaurant and the food is outstanding. They overhead that it was a family members birthday meal and brought out as a surprise, free of charge birthday cupcake and candles. I really can't rate them highly enough.

Delicious curry! My wife even said it was the best everrrr! I agree! If I could give this place a 6 star for service I would! The gentleman serving us was so kind and shared lots of interesting information about the ingredients I’d never heard before. He even offered to help look after our baby while we ate! Amazing food and service! Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have been ordering from them for years but this time I am so disappointed with the order. The Chicken Biryani the chicken was very tough n chewy. The Dum ka Dal the quantity is so much reduced to a very small portion probably not enough for even 1 person if you plan to have with rice. I am utterly disappointed. They are offering discounts on item now but I wish they continued with the quality instead.

This restaurant is just awesome!!!! The menu is so different to other Indian restaurants, the dishes are rare and are cooked in a way that makes them healthy. No grease in sight! Their drinks list is extensive and very reasonably priced. If you are looking for something different, this is the place. I will definitely be going back again, and very soon.

The chicken trilogy , zeera aloo methi and karwari fried fish were amazing . Very cordial and hospitable. Will come again to try the rest .

After moving away from Zeera (once the great Village Brasserie), we looked at the other offerings in Reigate. We have used Sumner Saffron before and thought it was really good…. But then they felt appropriate to raise their prices to Mayfair prices. Good to see Reigate people have expressed their frustration and walked away hence they have now reduced their prices to acceptable levels. So we ordered… really nice, tasty and you can taste how fresh it is. Why are onion bhaji’s not crispy anymore in curry restaurants maybe shouldn’t be traditionally….. please keep prices reasonable

came in here on the off chance they had a table for two on a busy evening. (we abandon our reservations in Banana tree as the couple next to us have been waiting two hours for their main course). maybe the fact they could accommodate was due to the food being a little priceier than normal but I do think it's a lot classier than the average ruby. interesting menu options made for a really pleasant evening with great comic service from caring waiter. the service really was good the waiter with the curly hair and glasses really was a positive addition to our evening. would recommend highly!

Great food and service. We will certainly be back and highly recommend it to everyone. Their lunch time 3 course meal is so worth it.

What a fabulous supper! The service was impeccable and we were really looked after. Our statuses and mains were beautiful, particularly the onion bhajis! A great night

Great food and excellent friendly service. Very welcoming and conversational. We tried the restaurant for the first time. Will definitely come back

Very nice and very different food to your normal curry house. Consequently well worth a visit. Slightly more expensive than the norm but for the little extra you pay it’s worth it. Has now become our favourite. The chef obviously puts a lot of thought into his dishes.

Our favourite restaurant in the Reigate/Redhill area. We especially like that the food is healthy, not greasy like other Indian restaurants. They take care to give special consideration to the wishes of spice strength for their customers. Always a special treat in a lovely atmosphere.

Turned up on a Tuesday night and had a thoroughly enjoyable experience from start to finish. Service was very friendly and attentive but not pushy. Food choice was a little limited but quality and taste were fantastic.

Had the lunch special - a fantastic variety of very tasty food and great value. Service was impeccable and all at a great price.

Delicious modern take on traditional curry!

Finally a true Indian.experiemce.

I got food poisoning from this place. Avoid

Very subtle and delicious flavours. Unusual and sophisticated dishes. Great service and ambiance. We will come back ! Jai ho!

Fantastic food. Amazing menu and flavours. Clearly all orders were cooked to order. Service was excellent. Will be going back

Amazing meal! Fantastic starters which we shared. Lamb chops absolutely delicious. High quality meat. My partner had boar vindaloo - which again was delicious and meat tender and good quality. I had the paneer. Again absolutely great. Amazing taste. Service excellent!

Very good food, a class above a normal curry. Well cooked and presented. My Irish friend enjoyed the draft beer and we all (5) agreed the meal was excellent. Price was £190 for 5 people with drinks.

One of the best Indian restaurants in the area with an excellent service and ambience

went here as a quick substitute and was very pleasantly surprised. food was really good, service was OK. the place was small and obviously popular takeout as constant noise from orders coming in.

Poor food and, grossly overpriced. The poppadoms look like they have come out of a Skips packet. They have a 'wild boar vindaloo' which is a few lumps of meat frozen meat in a tomato sauce. We wondered why there were so few people here. Mystery solved.

We have been regular visitors to Saffron Summer ever since it opened. The food is always of the highest standard and the menu is refreshingly different from your usual curry-house fare. Admittedly, their prices are a little above some other local Indian restaurants but it's worth paying a bit extra for a high quality product. The service is always friendly and attentive. Saffron Summer is definitely the best Indian restaurant in the Reigate area.

Best Indian we’ve ever had!! We decided to order some starters and sides to share so we could try lots of different things from the menu and everything was 10/10! The Dum Ka Dal, Saag Aloo and Chicken Trilogy are must-haves! Every dish we tried was so full of flavour - we’re already thinking about the next time we can go back to try the curries which sounded amazing too. Service was great and very attentive. Will definitely be our go-to Indian from now on!

Great Indian restaurant with great taste. Good service too.

Highly recommended. Generous portions and attentive service. Restaurant was relatively quiet on Sunday evening. Food was great quality and decent selection of drinks. Will dine there again.

Great service and amazing food. So many restaurants serve bland food but not this one, you can taste the different flavours. Best Indian restaurant in the area. There was a special deal when we visited, on Tuesday evening, buy one main dish get the second free. Will be my go to Indian restaurant from now on.

Love Saffron Summer, still by far the best curry we've had. Always get amazing take away from here too. Can't eat in any of the other curry houses in Reigate anymore. Old Delhi Butter Chicken is the best main dish on the menu : )

This was my first visit to the restaurant but it won't be the last. Exceptional food and service. Brilliant dinner with a great wine list too.

Terrible food. Bad customer service

Group of 8 visited. Food was average and certainly not worth the price they charge. Was quite tasteless and small portions. Not sure what was going on with the poppadoms ( individual biscuit size, around 8 each per person). Disappointing and won't be visiting again.

We had a fantastic team meal last night. There were eight of us in total and service was extremely friendly and attentive. Our water was constantly topped up, and any drinks, extra sides, extra rice orders weren't too much to ask. One of our dishes came out slightly later than the others, for which the manager apologised and checked in regularly to ensure everyone was happy with their meals. One of our team said the lamb Rogan Josh special was the best he'd ever had, and I can safely say we'd happily make this our regular team curry spot in Reigate going forward. Highly recommended. Thanks for such an enjoyable evening team Saffron Summer!

Just back from a wonderful evening at Saffron Summer - delicious curries, impeccable service and friendly staff. This was my first visit - I will return again soon. Thank you.

I'm not sure what has happened to this restaurant, it wasn't like this 3 years ago, mediocre food and extortionate prices,£186 for 3 of us! On top of this took me 30 mins to try and find somewhere to park.

Just had a fantastic meal at Saffron Summer in Reigate. Food was some of the best I’ve tasted since living in India for a year and the service was exemplary. Recommend the sev and bhel as starters Thank you for a lovely evening.

Would highly recommend this restaurant. Fantastic service with excellent food. Will 100% return.

One of the best authentic Indian restaurants I've been to. Don't expect your usual over salted and gigantic curries. This place caters to those who appreciate the intricacies of spice and herbs. The service is Michelin star quality and you will be hard pressed for a more romantic night out.

My wife went here with a friend and said I should try it. I am very critical when eating out ( wife calls me a nasty Gordon Ramsey ) So this had to be good. It turned out to be much better than I expected...

The food was the best restaurant food I have ever eaten. The service was brilliant and the staff very friendly. The choice of food is very wide ranging including vegetarian options. Prices are reasonable and portions are large. I will return to this restaurant each time I go out to eat- that's how good it is.

Lovely place, very tasty Indian food, my husband and I are vegetarians, we found so many delicious dishes. Lovely staff, very nice modern Indian restaurant. Would strongly recommend to everyone!!!

I went to Saffron Summer along with my partner, parents, and brother and sister in-law for a Mother’s Day meal and what a meal it was! Everything we ordered was absolutely stunning, but what was far more impressive was the service. We were served by...

Up-market Indian cuisine. Not your average take-away by any means. Amazing food. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great aesthetics.

Excellent food and service at good prices. Saffron Summer never disappoints 👍

I was expecting quite a refined experience here with expertly combined flavours from the best in the business but I was really quite disappointed. My vegetarian jalfrezi had all the finesse of microwaved frozen vegetables stirred into some curry sauce just before serving. I can create a tastier curry and I'm just a mechanic. The Cobra was on the flat side too 👎🏽

Not had a delivery from here in ages , never disappoints. Absolutely delicious!

3 couples. All experienced diners at Indian restaurants. This was a cut above the mustard! Not your usual fayre. Not terribly large portions, but unbelievable flavours in the dishes. Already planning our next visit!

Very underwhelming and disappointing curries. The chicken korma must have had like a cup of sugar in it and was more like a dessert than a savory which is obviously not you want for dinner. Tikka Masala was better but still rather disappointing. Definitely wouldn't recommend.

We had a delicious meal here. The menu is just a bit different for an Indian restaurant and it doesn’t just feel like standard fare. The staff were super friendly and helpful too. I’ll definitely be going back.

Thought we were for an ordinary curry, much to our surprise this place exceeded all expectations! Incredible lamb madras matched with great customer service!

Great service, excellent food. Rich and flavoursome. Keralan fish curry was gorgeous! Modern, high-end take on Indian dishes. Definitely the best we’ve found across Reigate/Horley/Redhill/Crawley/Horsham areas. If you want a “traditional” cheap greasy British Indian takeaway, this probably isn’t for you - but that’s why we keep coming back. Keep doing what you’re doing!

Lovely intimate restaurant. Friendly dedicated staff that made us feel welcome. Really enjoyed the chefs special butter chicken but did feel the hydrabadi lamb biriyani was over spiced (dry spices) - the yogurt provided along side certainly saved me. Will go for a lighter rice next time. A MUST TRY is the venison sheek kebabs - they were DEVINE!!! The staff encouraged us to follow social distancing rules and actively reminded us to wear masks as well as use their provided sanitisers. Look forward to popping by the next time I visit the neighbourhood x

We had a wonderful family evening at Saffron Summer in Reigate, (there were 10 of us).. from the moment we arrived, the service was fantastic & the food equally as fabulous too.. the little touches & presentation were really appreciated.. Thank you to all the...

We had poppadoms to start, but these weren't your usual type & not as good also the chutneys to accompany were not authentic like you usually get & none of us really liked them..we asked for chicken tikka but got shredded bits of chicken instead, all in all not a particularly good experience plus it was very expensive...

No idea what has happened here since the old days of Clove which was a really nice restaurant. The new menu is quite limited with a small selection of what can be described as very random dishes, with a common theme of being very expensive. Wild boar Vindaloo?? Service was very slow but staff were friendly. Food quality was ok, nothing special and certainly not justifing the high prices. Adding on 10% service charge automatically was unwarranted. Avoid.

Saffron Summer is one of the best curry we've had in a very long time. It's the best in Reigate and Surrey by a long way! We regularly get takeaways from here too, they are always fantastic. The food is extremely fresh and not greasy

Service was slow but there were only 2 of them covering the floor and it was quite busy. Service was with a beaming smile which made it bearable. Wild boar vindaloo is a spicy delight. Not crazy hot and full of flavour.

Great tasting food and amazing customer service

It’s marketed as a high end, high price & high quality restaurant so going in my expectations were high. Sadly the service is terribly slow and disappointing to an extent where we were about to leave. Having to wait 1h15m for a main is unacceptable. When the food was served, we sent a dish back as it was undercooked, the breads were dripping in fat, and overall not to that high quality we hoped for. A disappointing night overall soured by very slow service. I was amazed that after such a disappointing they had the audacity to add on then 10% service charge! We did come to an agreement in the end but they need to understand that most people don’t want to be waiting for that amount to time to eat. If you’re going to charge high prices people expect high quality overall. Overprice and underwhelmed would be my rating.

We dined at Saffron Summer with four friends last night and, as always, we were very happy with the food and the service. We have been regular visitors since the restaurant first opened and have never been disappointed. The menu is different from the usual...

Dropped into Saffron Summer on Sunday night for the first time. The food was excellent and the service was outstanding. Highly recommended.

delicious food and friendly service

Having lived in central London for the last 20 years and experienced some of the best ‘not in India’ restaurants, this discreet local Indian restaurant in a quintessential English town is now top of my hit list for quality of food and good service. Dishoom may have the location and reputation but this unassuming restaurant in Reigate has me hooked. And should certainly give them a run for their money. I expect to be fighting for a reservation the next time I book if the discerning locals catch on. Sssshhhh!

7 of us ate there tonight. Great food, very tasty. Staff were so friendly and and very helpful particularly for a friend with a non-standard dietary requirement. Lovely atmosphere too.

The food was probably the best we've had for years. This isn't your average Indian - it's original, fresh, inventive, locally sourced and delicious. If you want something wonderfully out of the ordinary this is it. Eg. There's Venison Seekh Kebab, Guinea Fowl Banjara, Wild...

Ram was very nice, excellent friendly service and delicious food. Would go again.

Excellent service and the food was delicious

We ordered a takeaway from Saffron Summer for the first time last week. The food was ready at our collection time, the staff were very friendly and polite. It was the nicest Indian we have had and will definitely be ordering again.

We ordered takeaway from Saffron Summer as it was the only local Indian restaurant who could provide food at Sunday lunchtime. How delighted we were with the service and the food. Our order was ready at precisely the agreed time and it was so delicious...

Walked in waited 30 minutes to be served drinks then waited 50 to take our order when we confronted waiter he argued with us. To be honest bad attitude and poor service and I will not be going back again

Took far too long to order. 30 minutes for drinks and poppadoms. over 1 hour for food. Very concerning. Asked 2 different people to order and they passed the buck off to someone else to order. We were right next to the bar and it...

Very nice menu with a modern twist , beautifully cooked with lovely service highly recommended. Decor is modern

Really nice menu, beautifully cooked with very pleasant service. Highly recommend

Had dinner with a friend on a fairly quiet Tuesday night. Really interesting menu, everything was very good and the service attentive and friendly. Will definitely return.

Ram was very helpful and he helped us organise a big anniversary party for my parents. They handled over 20 people very well. The food was excellent.

Definitely not the same old menu from this Indian restaurant. A quite different take on Indian food here and it is really very good! Not cheap, though!

Had tried out the Chessington branch sane time ago and decided to give this new branch in Reigate a try for a date night. We enjoyed every moment at this romantic restaurant. Thanks guys.

Authentic Indian The food is as good and as authentic as you can find in the best restaurants in India . Recommend for amazing Indian food and experience in Reigate . Would love to come back soon..

Was really impressed all 4 of us really enjoyed our food and drinks. Friendly staff. Highly recommend this high end Indian restaurant.

Amazing Indian food The food is amazing, last time it was in India when I had this tasty food and as you can find the taste to be authentic ,strongly Recommended for Indian food and amazing service in Reigate . Special thanks to chef Vishal...

Great find! Staff very attentive and polite. Reasonably priced and welcoming atmosphere. Meal was absolutely delicious and meat was cooked perfectly.

My self and my wife with 2 friends found this restaurant on the web. This is possibly the worse Indian restaurant I have ever visited. I eat out at least twice a week we are all aged in our 50s. We all left very disappointed...

Our first visit to this restaurant which was recommended to us by friends. On arrival the staff were very attentive and welcoming, from here it went downhill. 40 minutes to take our food order even though the restaurant was half empty. The owner who took...

Excellent service and very tasty food. Our waiter was really great, extra touches that really set the service apart from other restaurants. Good selection for vegetarians. Will definitely return next time I'm after an Indian in Reigate.
