Cafe Saffron

Wish I had found this place sooner. It’s a small place with great food and the owners are genuinely nice people. Their shawerma game is on point, go for the sandwich.

My wife and I just ate there. We are a bit picky about our food. It was all very fresh and delicious. I had the schwarma plate and she had the beef steak kabob. We would order both again. And the owners were very nice and attentive to us while we were there. We will definitely go back.

Opened late summer 2014 and I’ve been 4 – 5 times since then. They have very high grade meat (including very good lamb). However, that is pretty much all they have. Everything is served with lots of meat. The regular portions are huge and have little veggies. For something more varied and moderately sized get the decent shawarma sandwich. The yogurt sauce is excellent (if you like sour) and can also be ordered as a side. The girl taking orders is not patient enough to explain exactly what the dishes have and their is little other information. The owners who actually make the food seem nice, but don’t seem to speak much English. Seems like the place would be a better experience if they got the orders too. Overall this place is okay and a useful addition to the campus corner daily palate, but for my money Shawarma Vite on the other side of campus is significantly better.
