First time coming here. I have heard so many good things so I had to try it. We got the fried potatoes which were tasty and crispy and these fried fritter things that are very very good and the sauce at the bottom is also quite good. The lamb tagine was good. I was expecting it to be more flavorful but it was tasty and I got it on couscous because I think that is what tagine usually is served on. It was more like a couscous salad with lamb on top. The dish was cold so I'm not sure if it was supposed to be hot or not. I liked it ok. The chicken tagine was out of this world amazing. The chicken didn't taste like much but the sauce is very flavorful and complex. Had that on top of the polenta and that just knocked it out of the park. I think it was supposed to have a salad on top but mine didn't include a salad. I kinda wished I got the lamb on the polenta. Note the lamb didn't really have a sauce. Got the fish sandwhich as well to give is a try and got everything on the side because we knew were were not going to be able to eat it today. The fish didn't taste like much on it's own but the sauces are good and that is where all the flavor is from. The bread is very very good and tastes like they are fresh. I think it is supposed to come with the soup of the day but there was no soup included. That said overall the food is really great and if you have not been here go and try it now.
The staff were very friendly and kind. You can tell everyone enjoys working there. I love the way they are disrupting the resturant industry by actually paying a living wage and benifits for their staff. Chef Omar was even there and chatted it up with us.
The take out containers were very flimsy. Be very careful if you order take out. The chicken tagine was the only thing that was super hot and it kinda disintegrated the container because with the sauce and the polenta it has a lot of liquid. I kept almost dropping and spilling everything especially the little sauce containers.
The decor here is nice. I would have loved to dine in today but it was just too hot to eat outside. Definately will be back. I am going to be having dreams of the chicken tagine sauce and polenta.
We had a great first time at Saffron dining in! We were the only sit-in customers at 5pm on Friday, and we got our food really quickly, had nice conversation with the waiter and Chef Omar, and enjoyed the dinner very much! There is room for 3-5 small groups inside, and more seating in a covered patio outside. The road noise is pretty loud outside. We ordered tomato dip with bread, chicken tagine, carrot tagine, mint tea, and cheesecake. Everything was high quality and tasted homemade, wholesome, and healthy (except the cheesecake, but cheesecake isn't supposed to taste healthy! It was our favorite dish). Both tagines were really nice, but i think the chicken edged the carrot out in flavor. The congee base was a fun option, and it's faintly spicy but otherwise very mild. Great value for everything! Seems like their menu changes all the time, and Chef Omar has lots of cool ideas and collaborative projects with other local chefs. Definitely excited to go back!
Great experience at this delicious restaurant. We got to meet the owner (Mr. Omar) and the food is excellent. We tried:Lemonade, Rose Milk Tea, Marguez sausage, saffron tomato dip, carrot and raisin salad and Fish bocadillo. Excellent food, support local business
Small cozy place with really friendly staff. It was our first time trying out Moroccan food and we loved it. The tea was amazing as well and they whole experience of pouring the tea was exciting. The owner takes time out of his busy schedule and talks to every customer which was pretty cool.
Overall a must visit place if you’re in the area.
Only negative was that the food wasn’t warm enough but it wasn’t a big deal once we started eating.
Definitely wanted to try something different. so I
Check this place first time trying Moroccan Food. I had the Harissa potatoes they were so delicious a must you have to try them and the fried fish sandwich was delicious the tangy sauce gave it that extra kick
another item to order. You won’t be disappointed.
My friend had the Lamb Tangine it was different just wasn’t for our taste buds. Hey you might love it.
The parking is very limited. Stafff was very friendly.
Very good. Well seasoned, well cooked. meatballs juicy, potatoes crispy, portions fair, goat cheese creamy, service quick. Server wore a mask
10/10 in every single aspect. Even if the food was absolutely terrible we’d still go back just for their amazing service and personality, but thankfully their food is also up to par. Every single dish we ordered had us wanting more which is really rare. If you’re in the Detroit area, this is a must try hands down
