Saffron Indian Cuisine - Halton

Sadly and it pains me to give any business owner a bad review, but this place is a joke. Furthermore, school boy error that I didn’t trip advise this place before ordering? Usually we go to two other restaurants but we couldn’t be bothered driving, so we gave this place a shot. Firstly the take away meal arrived and I had to drive back to the restaurant to query why so little sauce and tiny portion size given the £40 cost (just for takeaway mains) Returned home, tasted the food and I could not decipher what I was meant to be eating? Food lacked any depth and real flavour, tandoori chicken tasted like rubber and the sauces just terrible. The chapattis could have been used at ‘lords’ as a cricket ball, such was the hardness. Also….why do all the meals come in microwave Tupperware? That in itself is a Red Flag? Your paying a premium price and getting cheap quality ingredients. Never again, there’s plenty of really good Indian restaurants in Widnes and surrounding areas.

After placing a £40 takeaway order the food should of arrived within the hour. After two hours we called and enquired as to where our order was. After a further hour we called again and asked for a refund to which we are told would be processed straight away. Two weeks later and after a couple of emails and also trying to call the restaurant (ringing out) we are still yet to receive refund. To sum it up I will never eat in or takeaway from here again. You shouldn’t have to chase your own money back like this and they still have near £40 of my money. Shocking service!!!

Unfortunately not a great food experience, ordered 7 different meals and all tasted the same, not even curry based just basically a chicken and tomato stew Save your money and curry meal from Tesco, it would be more authentic

Excellent food, normally we eat in but had friend over last night so ordered a take away, food was ready in time and each meal was spot on

This is honestly one of the worst takeout meals I have ever had. The mixed starter was bland but edible. The main dishes were terrible. The chicken was very tough and the sauces were flavorless. Even the naan bread was inedible. I wasted over 20 pounds on this disappointing meal.
