On our 15th wedding anniversary we decided to try a new place. On a friends lead we chose Saffron Bistro. Wonderful food, very clean, excellent choices. We had Lamb and Shrimp. We’ll be back. The owner told us he does not advertise. All word of mouth.

I have been to Saffron many times and have always enjoyed the flavors. I am admittablely not an expert in Indian cuisine, but I really enjoyed their take on many Indian favorites. The soup is really good, and they have some excellent vegetarian dishes. The tandoori chicken is excellent as is the yogurt sauce. If they ask you for your heat preference, choose mild!! The medium heat tended to be to spicy for me, even though I normally like spicy food.
Word seems to vary on whether this is mediocre, faux-Indian food, or the best Indian cuisine in Tucson, and whether the decor is Cafeteria Modern or Stylishly Hip. What we can say for sure is that the place is bustling, and it IS Indian food on the Northwest Side. The presentation sure is pretty!
