Saffron Indian Takeaway in Dover

First time we have used this Indian takeaway, decided it was closer than the town ones and getting a bit fed up with them. Tonight’s takeaway was lovely, the flavour of the Brinjol Bhajee was excellent as was the Saffron special rice, we had a chicken tikka curry, it was nice but will go a bit more spicy next time. My husband and I always share a curry these days with a starter and side dish and that is plenty for us. Will definitely be going back.

We have always ordered from Saffron in the past but this is the first time in a year and never again. The poppadoms were lovely but that was it. The biryani lacked flavour and depth and the chicken kashmir was so bland, indeed I didn’t even know it was possible to find a banana which didn’t even taste of one! Disappointing.

For years this was THE Indian Take-away but since it has changed hands it's gone down hill. Food just not as fresh or tasty and with recent price increases its certainly not number 1 anymore.

We walked in my partner knew what he wanted, but I didn't. I asked the lovely man behind the counter to help me pick a meal, after describing what I was after he suggested chicken bhuna which I went for. We paid by card and waited about 20 mins on the comfy sofa.Got the food home and it was all fresh and smelled amazing. The chicken korma was very good, and the poppadoms too. My bhuna was full of flavour and my garlic naan absolutely delicious. Saffron will be our go-to for Indian take away from now on. Highly recommend.

Our first takeaway from the Saffron. In simple words a great experience. The food was ready for collection at the time specified, I walked in and the food came out.The food was wonderful, the description given in the menu reflects what you get. The meat was a fine cut with little fat and no sinew, you could taste each element of the dish with spices well balanced. The vegetables were not over cooked and spiced just sufficiently to allow you to identify what the vegetable when eating.I shall be using this as our takeaway in the future

Food was nice, a bit pricey and they got our order wrong. One of our orders, were 4 peshwari naans they gave us plain naan, charged us for the more expensive one. I emailed them, they didn't reply. For an £80 order, I think this will be our last one from this restaurant

Honestly one of the best Indians I’ve ever had- ever! Really fresh, high quality food and lovely lovely staff to boot. You can tell it’s all cooked fresh as takes a bit of time and isn’t just straight out. Lots of choice- we ordered a lot for four people and all of it was great. They should open a restaurant as there’s no other competition in Deal in my eyes, and so there’s a gap that needs filling! :-)

I never write these things but this has got to be the worst curry I’ve ever had and the worst delivery experience as well!I ordered my food at 18:13 using the online system; this was good. Although it doesn’t tell you an expected delivery time. This said, Saturday night ... I’ll leave it an hour before I start worrying where it is. I’ll 7:15 I make the phone call (23 times later - no answer), now 7:45, I decide to get in the car and head down there. Guess what the food turns up, no apology from the driver for its delay.Ok, not all bad. The food arrived hot, almost in their containers. Anyway, I dish the food up for my kids who are now starving. The seem happy. Finally sit down to eat my Jalfrezi. Mmm ... Jalfrezi. What the heck was that. Now I don’t mean to be rude, either the chef in this place needs to go back to chef school or some poor sole in Deal is eating my Jalfrezi instead of the tomato based lime soup with chicken in it. Thank good the kids Korma wasn’t bad and I hate Korma usually.I honestly think I could’ve done a better job myself. It would’ve taken me an hour and half but would’ve tasted great. This was poor customer service and awful product. All I can say is thank god for the poppadoms!Won’t be returning here and will be telling my friends and family to avoid!

Best Indian food around. Have got an app to make ordering easier I guess its on one of my pictures and the other is a chicken tikka masala very red very sweet love it could feed two but I'm greedy cost about a £10

Oh dear, no website so no menu , we ordered vegetable main dish which normally come with rice , but no rice turned up. My partner spent a long time on loo after meal and still feels raw the next morning. And they charge extra to deliver , all in all an interesting experience that I would not recommend.
