I usually never bother writing reviews, but I couldn't help myself after my last few visits...so here it is.
I used to be a huge fan of Saffron...but I will probably never go back to eat there. The food used to be really consistent but not anymore. Now, it's more hit..or..miss.
Quality of food at Saffron has been steadily slipping downwards. I was visiting this place 3 to 4 times a month and used to recommend it to my colleagues at work. Not any more !
Nowadays, you can never be sure how they will surprise you...be it pizza dough naan's or excess turmeric in all dishes or too much masala. Even their mango dessert is now screwed up.
But their employees still maintain some old traditions...like nicely wrapping up naan's in foil paper and stocking up on generous portions of food for themselves to enjoy, once most patron's have left.
The last 3 times I took my family there, food was so hopeless. I got a feeling their main business was to feed themselves and throw the remaining food at the patrons. We felt more or less like an inconvenience to them.
Why go 3 times when food was bad? I realise every restaurant has their bad days but most recover quickly and maintain consistent quality. Then again, this is an Indian restaurant, and for them to realise, it will take a jolt where it matters most...their wallet.
The employees and manager seem to forget that the restaurant is still running because people keep coming back...and the only reason people come back is great food...nothing else. We expect good food on every visit, not just when the cook feels like it.
I'm not going back there, and will try other restaurants in morrisville instead. For people who have never been there...don't bother going. It's not worth it anymore !!
Pros: Service is Ok.
Cons: Food going downhill...Buffet is horrible now-a-days.
