Zaafran Indian Cuisine in Havering - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Fantastic Meal lamb shank in Pathia sauce with Lemon rice BOSH.

Food very underwhelming and lacked flavour… service was a plus point.

Visited here last week whilst visiting family in London. The food was better than expected however one of the waiters was very rude. Asking us to order even before we sat down and telling us the kitchen closes in an hour so be quick. Other than that I would visit again when back in the area.

Some staff were not up to standard may need customer service course food was very nice atmosphere good just let down by some staff attitudes will think about going back again

Just ordered a takeaway at Zaafran with Justeats and unfortunately although both curries were very tasty the chicken in both dishes was very chewy and spoilt the meal. Biryani is supposed to have the chicken cooked in the rice but you could tell it was the same as the Rogan Josh so must have all been cooked in a batch

Fantastic every time. Been visiting for years and never disappointed. A favourite for the whole family. Thank you Zaafran!

Booked a table for 2 , early at 6.30. Requested a bench seat ,due to my arthritis and mobility, Manager very rude ( not the first time!) and offered two awful seats in the middle. Felt humiliated and left. Won’t be re visiting I’m afraid

Excellent food excellent restaurant.

Wonderful food and great atmosphere.

A good atmosphere in the restaurant & delicious Indian food. My wife & I really enjoyed & will be back sometime soon. Staff were very friendly & went out their way to make sure it a pleasant evening.

Staff was super attentive and the service was great! No long waiting times and the food was lovely! Very clean and nice ambience! Will be back!

An absolutely beautiful meal, very tasty and cooked perfectly. Staff very welcoming and pleasant. Great value for what you get. Will 100% recommend..

Food was brilliant we really enjoyed

Best indian in romford service and food both are excellent 👍

Great food. Great manager..he took the time to to talk to us and make us feel welcome. This was our first visit and was pleasantly surprised with good quality food. We will definitely return.

The worst food ever. Ordered online. Portion was less even than anywhere else starter. It was burned-out and not tasty. Called the restaurant they suppose to replace food but no show. So definitely not gonna eat there any more. Terrible experience 🤢

Having tried tons of different Indian cuisine places, this is my favourite. Amazing dishes (especially dhansak) and super nice service. I highly recommend this place!

From starters through to desserts - service, food, hospitality and atmosphere was second to none and impeccable. Definitely recommend, will be returning!

The best restaurant in Romford. food, service and ambiance is Nice and relaxing. The tandoori lamb chops was the best I’ve had in Indian restaurant no food colouring.

I had not booked, but they still were able to fit us in. Food was excellent.

Lovely clean restaurant, friendly staff and great food, we definitely recommend.

Decent food for decent price.Ambience is good.chicken pieces were hard.

The food here is excellent but the service is so rushed.

Excellent experience all round. The vindaloo I tried was particularly tasty with fresh chicken that matched the high quality of the rest of the ingredients.

Had a really lovely meal here would definately recommend

The food here is amazing and the service is great. Also do a great takeaway service.

Zaafran is my best awaited meals of the week of the month. Its such beautiful food, and the staff are very nice and professional. There has never been a time I've been let down. My most favourite Indian ever. 😍

Great evening catching up with family. Food was great very popular place. Would recommend to book.

Full marks for coping well with our group of 6 adults and 3 children. Kind and attentive service and lovely food to go with it.

The worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant in my life. The owner was rude by being condescending towards our table saying derogatory things and also being abusive. We felt insulted. We will never be returning again to this astablishment. He was the most horrible individual I have ever met, with derogatory language towards our group and also the women. I cannot speak about how rudely the owner was to us, from his abusive language to his intolerable actions. He spoke down to us stating he didn't care that we all felt offended by his actions. We even experienced all the waiters apologising to us for his behaviour. This spoke volumes of who was in the wrong. He was a really nasty piece of work and I would never recommend anyone to eat here in the future. Razza down the road is a LOT better, not only from the customer service but also the food. We were utterly appalled and disgusted with the behaviour we experienced tonight and I will be horrified if anyone ever experienced the situation we were in tonight. Disgusting person (owner) and disgusting treatment. AVOID.

We eat here often. Very efficient service and a lovely curry

I usually guage an Indian restaurant by the quality of the dips with the poppadoms. They were good so I expected a good curry. I was wrong, I got the best dansak I've had in several years, including 5 weeks spent im india pre pandemic. And value for money, even my tight arsed boss would have been happy with the price!! To quote Arnie, I'll be back!

Delicious food and attentive staff. We will be back!

Ordered a meal on the day my mother in law died (23rd Dec). It arrived 40 mins after scheduled time and was nearly all stone cold. We were all exhausted after the day we had had and so could not be asked to complain that day and most of it went in the bin. We spoke to the restaurant and were told we had to go to deliveroo as we ordered through them. They have taken months to deal with this and we were offered a £14 refund of an order over £110 and which 3/4 of the food was cold. Told by the restaurant that our complaint was with deliveroo not them!! Avoid as clearly they don't care about their customers and are happy to have customers wait hours for a cold meal!!!

Ok. Bit expensive but clean & tidy & good staff. Starters were only Luke warm which is why I gave 4 stars.

Always a good night out here. Staff are excellent and welcoming. Foods good, have a varied section you don't have to be into curry to enjoy a meal here plenty of choice. Always a treat

I have been twice now on both occasions the food ,service and cleanliness is first class.

We Have been To This Restaurant Many Times Always Good Service with Very Good and Friendly Staff with a Warm Welcome at The Door very lovely Decor And last but not Lest Fantastic Food From a Fantastic menu Going Back there Again in Two weeks , You can also make a reservation on the website .

I’ve always recommended as a 5* but tonight the chefs special beef was well under-par. Meat was tough and chewy even when each cube was cut into smaller pieces. It normally breaks down into the sauce and is a masterpiece - sadly not tonight

Wonderful food and lovely staff!

It was a first visit to this restaurant and would definitely return again. The food was delicious and cooked so good. This was all eaten in a nice comfortable and smart surroundings. Definitely recommend Zaafran.

Ok not the best expensive for what you get bizzy Better restaurants local much better

What a great experience! Family of 11 including children! Jamal and the Team couldn't do enough for us including one of the younger waiter who helped keep the kids entertained too! Great food, Great staff and great atmosphere! Thank you and see you soon!

Had a great experience. All the food tasted excellent & was presented very nicely! The mango raas malai was especially good - 10/10 Recommend checking this place out.

Very delicious food and service. Also provides Wine and Beer which is a plus. Perfect for a night out or hanging with friends and family. They also do booking as well so you can reserve your own space.

Superb restaurant. Service was excellent, clean and tidy. Food was very good and the price was fair. Would highly recommend.

Excellent food and great value.

One of my favourite places with the best vegetable dishes. Pickled pumpkin and mushrooms with spinach are delicious. Service is friendly and attentive.

First visit to Zaffran. Food was exceptional and staff friendly. Will definitely visit again.

Had the pleasure of visiting Zaafran, must say the service and food is second to nothing in the area. Will visit again and wholeheartedly recommend to everyone.

Great atmosphere, great food, great service...

Very good service, food was excellent 👌

Beautiful fresh food. Friendly staff. Ok priced. 5*

Great little curry house. Super fast and friendly service, generous portions and the Hariyali Chicken is great. Recommended as a great high street curry place!

Not been for a while... Pleased to say food excellent. Recommended

Good food. Service a bit slow and a couple of mistakes were made with our orders, but the staff were friendly and helpful.

Went on a Saturday night, it was very busy & now I know why! The food was absolutely delicious, the best Indian food I ever tasted from a restaurant. It was just different from the norm & served beautifully. Very friendly service, will definitely be back! Thanks for a great night.

I had an excellent meal last night ! Immaculate service from the staff , overall best in town . Loved the lamb shank Highly recommended to book in advance for the weekend as it gets extremely busy.

Lovely vibrant restaurant,extremely well run and food superb

Best Indian I've had in ages.... Food was excellent

Always very good service. Food is always fantastic

Great food and customer service!

One of the best restaurants for service and food you will ever go to

Nice staff and the food was excellent

Been several times now. Not cheap but always really excellent food and friendly helpful staff who get 'attentive' just right means it's good value for money. I would recommend to anyone.

Amazing food and quick service. Will defo come back soon

Food portions In the restaurant 50 percent the size of take away portiins although very tasty. I won't be coming back as I feel this restaurant is not value from money. Service was also a bit slow!

Absolutely delicious, friendly service. One of the best Indian restaurants I have ever been to and I have been to a lot

My favourite curry house in the local area. Try the tandoori lamb chops... amazing

To be honest I didn't visit and a friend brought some food from this restaurant....and found it very appetising and tasty.....nice one

Good service. Tasty food. £90 for 4 people.

Great food fantastic staff especially Mario

Food was OK however drinks are a total rip off! We had a main each, couple of sides to share and minimal drinks. £80 between 4 people. We don't mind paying for a nice meal however when you're paying £4.30 for a pint of coke they're ripping people off! Menu specials were very highly priced also. I usually like to try something different however none took my fancy especially averaging £12 and upwards. Food or service wasn't good enough to warrant a return dinner. Will be going elsewhere in future

Amazon food as usual. Great service. The best around. We shall be back next week.

Went to birthday meal last nite..very nice food..table for 16 people...food was very good value..staff friendly and service good..would defo return.

Went there for a birthday meal last week, great food great service

Arrived last night - table of 4 - food mediocre therefore over priced. Service poor as waiter and manager very rude and dismissive - wouldn’t return.

Good ambience. Starters are great. Wide variety of menu.

This is one of the best Indian restaurants around the area. The staff are attentive, food is absolutely amazing, service is quick and we return their time after time after time. If you are reading the negative comments, just go there and try for yourself, you will not be disappointed at all.

Terrible restaurant rushed us out, food was awful and the waiters were the worst I’ve ever come across if your coming to a curry house in gidea park use RAZZA (next door but 3) takes a little longer but worth it ......ZAAFRAN in gidea Park main road is a No No !!!

Booked an online reservation through the website 3 hours before going, got to the restaurant and they simply said they have nothing and we need to book it 12 hours in advance, the staff there where not helpful and simply said we had to leave... disgusting if this was the case it shouldn't let you reserve online should It? .... mugs

Had a great New Year's Eve, food & service was excellent. New menu was varied and tasty.

Excellent menu, friendly staff and naan breads to die for!

Food and service was great definitely recommend

Attentive staff, nice modern style Indian restaurant with a good menu with that offers alternatives to the usual dishes. Food is always hot when served and you can tell that only fresh ingredients are used. Well worth a visit.

Decent Indian food with good service.

Amazing food, lovely, friendly staff

Dirty restaurant. Old food on the floor. Poor service and bad food avoid

Great service and beautifully cooked food

Good food and Mongoose beer! If you haven't tried Mongoose beer you're missing out made by people who used to own Cobra.

Good Indian. Bit more upmarket than your average curry house.

This is the best out of the little run of shops but still isn't anything to write home about.
