    The Saffron Restaurant & Bakery was around the corner from our hotel. A five minute walk. We went early on a Saturday morning and it was not crowded. We all enjoyed our breakfast meals. The omelets were very good as was the egg biscuit. The biscuits are large, very large. I couldn’t finish mine. The biscuits tasted just right. Easy to swallow, not dry at all. The croissants looked beautiful and are gigantic. They’re very tasty with the perfect light crunch. You can eat inside or outside. We ate inside and the waiter was quick to take our order and bring the food. As I mentioned, it was early and few people were there. Coffee is good. Wide selection of tea bags. The pastries/bakery items on display take center stage. Be sure to buy a pastry item to eat later. You’ll be happy you did. Prices were reasonable for breakfast. We didn’t eat lunch or dinner there so my rating reflects breakfast only. There is an overall 4 star rating as there is another bakery restaurant we went to for breakfast that we decided was just a bit better, and a bit more pricey. That said, we would return to Saffron to eat again. Definitely very good and yummy food. I’d like to return to try their lunch menu too. Give it a try and write your own rating. 🙂

    The host and server were very outgoing and helpful when we asked for suggestions. We had a sampler dish and then kabobs that we're both amazing!! We asked for the chef to come out as my wife wanted to tell her thank you and then a photo. If we were local we would certainly visit again. Was a little slow when we visited, no music or anything so atmosphere wasn't overwhelming. But understand sometimes nothing is better that what might offend some. Overall great 1st time experience!!

    We went to Saffron to pick up some pastries & coffee before heading back home. When we got inside, there was a line to order at the front. We waited for a bit, but they were so busy. It looked like there was a conference going on and the whole conference chose to eat there lol. Servers were going back and forth from the tables through the line we were waiting in to get to the kitchen. Service was timely and the person at the cashier was nice. I just ordered the Strawberry Croissant and Cheese Croissant. Both pastries were fantastic. Both were flaky and not too sweet. The filling in the strawberry croissant was great. Once I started, I finished them quick lol. My friend got some of the day old pastries too and those still tasted great. I was impressed at what we got and if I'm ever in the area again, I'd come back.

    Almost didn't make it to the table, the huge selection of desserts on display were quite impressive!!! We were seated right away, Kiar was our waiter, very nice and extremely helpful in picking out food and desserts, great description of both to narrow down what flavors you're looking for. We got the lamb kabob plate and the Cornish hen kabob plate, and both were bursting with flavor! Nicely chared from the grill, well seasoned, good portion of meat and flavorful rice. Looking forward to going back soon!

    Falafel and hummus was great. Lobster & Crab salad sandwich was good, pasta salad good, just needed some seasoning. Reuben was tough and bread was soggy. Fruit cup mediocre. Waiter was NOT friendly at all. He acts like he hates his job and we were a nuisance to him. Talked with table next to us before we left and they said the waiter was horrible too. He really should be in the back of the house. We decided to get dessert somewhere else that had a more welcoming spirit.
