Saffron Kitchen

Amazing food with rich, authentic flavors and generous portions. The Kobida kabob and mantu were outstanding, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. A must-visit if you love great food and genuine hospitality.

I’m visiting Buffalo and to my shock and delight there’s a Persian restaurant!!! Ordered twice from here the meat is incredibly fresh, I look for it to not be gamey, and not so much as a bite of weird texture. I hope this place keeps on for a while cause it is delicious- thank you to the owners you made my trip!

🚨 EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING SERVICE EXPERIENCE — PLEASE READ BEFORE DINING IN 🚨 This was our third visit to this restaurant, and while the food has always been great, what happened today was extremely disappointing and unprofessional. My uncle’s family and I went for dinner and ordered a lot of food — honestly, we had so many dishes that I didn’t even get pictures of everything, except one. Our total bill came to around $425. We paid by card and left a $40 tip. While we were sitting and drinking tea afterward, a waitress who wasn’t even our server (a young man had served our table the entire time) suddenly came over and told my uncle, in front of the whole family, that he should have tipped at least $70 instead of $40. Even though we were shocked by her behavior, my uncle still gave her an additional $30 in cash. A few minutes later, the same waitress returned, put the $30 back on the table, and said, “If you don’t want to tip, that’s fine, we don’t want it.” Then she walked away. We left the money on the table anyway because we genuinely wanted to tip. We’ve come to this restaurant multiple times and have even recommended it to friends, but after today, we won’t be returning. We came to celebrate and enjoy our meal, not to be disrespected and lectured over a tip — especially by someone who didn’t even serve our table. The food is good, but the service we experienced today was incredibly rude and unprofessional. The owner should really pay attention to how the staff treats paying customers. If you still want to try their food, I recommend takeout or ordering through UberEats/DoorDash, but I do not recommend dining in.
