Great food, we went on a quiet night but the owner made us very welcome
We came to the Dark Saffron after reading other reviews on here. We spent a lovely evening, the food was delicious, large portions. Staff were attentive and very welcoming. Would recommend to others and would return again if we were back in the area.
Hidden gem in New Milton: our first visit to this restaurant which is really well appointed and serves a very varied menu to an excellent level of both presentation and taste. A very enjoyable experience which we will certainly be repeating. Thank you Mac for great food and a great place. See you again soon! Nick
This is a different kind of Indian food—it's truly next level! Unlike artificial Indian restaurants, Dark Saffron offers a unique experience that you just have to try. We highly recommend it to everyone. We are very happy with our meal and will definitely be back, even though we're not local. If we were local, it would be great luck, but we'll definitely return. You can get curry anywhere, but this is next-level curry, mate. Highly recommended! Good luck, Dark Saffron. Thank you very much!
Lovely food and great service, staff where so helpful, offering a large selection on their menu. Massive amount of food for a great price, so much food that we then took half our meal home for dinner tomorrow! Cannot recommend the restaurant enough
I recently visited an Indian restaurant that truly impressed me, especially with its lamb steak. The dish was exceptional – the lamb was perfectly cooked, incredibly tender, and full of flavor. The marination was spot-on, with the spices balanced perfectly, allowing the richness of the lamb to shine through. Each bite was a delightful combination of juiciness and smokiness, creating an unforgettable experience. Paired with aromatic rice and naan, it was a meal worth savoring. The ambiance of the restaurant was also warm and inviting, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a delicious meal. Highly recommend trying the lamb steak if you visit!
We had a great first time meal at the Dark Saffron. Very attentive staff and our host was working hard to provide a first class service. We will be back as it was world class.
A really lovely place with delicious food. Very friendly staff, all happy to help. They went above and beyond with recommendations and help to ensure I had the best experience. The poppadums, okra and garlic mushrooms were delicious. The Butter Mango vegetable curry was so good too - it tasted better than it looked from my rubbish photo!
