Not sure why the reviews are so low, because Saffron serves some really solid Indian cuisine in SW Charlotte. It's the closest Indian restaurant near me, so I've been a handful of times. The service has always been friendly and attentive and they aced my go-to Palak Paneer each time.
The buffet is also very reliable if you want an affordable, quick, tasty Indian food.
Tip: Flip through those coupon mailers, because I recently found some coupons that'll save you 15% of dinner as well as a buy-one-get-one-free one.
