Saffron Spice is a hidden local treasure. Each dish that we ate was filled with tasty spices, perfect flavors.
Very good southern (Goan) Indian food. Simple, hole-in-the-wall dining space with excellent service and friendly staff. Tasty mint spice and tamarind sauce. Samosas had a nice thin and crunchy skin. The Naan was lightly flavored with a crispy bottom. Savory and spicy lamb curry. The house specialty chicken curry had great flavors, but the white chicken breast was on the very dry, overly chunky, and hard side; would recommend shredded white chicken or dark thighs. Definitely a great Indian food spot for the neighborhood. They also have food trucks with (changing) daily lunch specials during the weekday in SLU and surrounding areas.
This is my favorite Indian food in Seattle. Everything we ate was delicious. The service was personal, warm and delightful.
The decor is solidly hole in the wall, bordering on a dive. And the place can be hard to find. Clearly this is their prep kitchen for multiple food trucks rather than a full service restaurant. But don't let this deter you - it just helps you focus on the food - which is so worth it.
