Cathy's Kitchen - Penn Wynne

Wanted to try some Indian food while on my visit to my dad saw this place under the Delta Airlines rewards app. It had high ratings was close. I had the chicken tiki masala which was awesome along with the garlic Naan bread. My pops had the lamb he loved. Scooped up a menu he will be definitely trying it again. Thanks!!!

We get food from here at least once a week and it's always delicious. Never had a bad experience. Service is also fantastic and everyone that works at Saffron is super friendly. Best Indian restaurant on the Main Line.

To start, the service was great. Our host was friendly and had all the qualities of good service. Atmosphere inside was welcoming and the background music was not overbearing. I ordered saag paneer and garlic naan, but the table ordered papri chaat, lamb kebab, and dosa masala. I tried all, and especially enjoyed the papri chaat. The lamb was a little dry, but still had good flavor, along with the provided chutneys- there was a coconut one that was particularly good which came with the dosas. I ordered medium heat palak paneer. Overall, it was tasty, but not the best I've had. There was a nice, creamy texture to it with a good mix of spices. However, there was a burnt tasting undertone, a sort of bitterness, which I personally didn't like that much. I also had to pick out a few stems, which isn't out of the ordinary for saag but can be a bit jarring. However, I still enjoyed it, and the paneer was good as well. The garlic naan was the highlight for me, as it was buttery and dense (although I'm always a fan of more garlic). Price wise, I felt that the cost was fair for the amount of food and quality. Overall an enjoyable experience! I would come back again to try more dishes as I'm sure they'd be tasty.

Never had a bad dish here; be it takeout or sit down. Servers are friendly and knowledgeable. Decor is classy and eclectic, and the music is subtle yet catchy, never too loud and accompanies the level of business in the restaurant. TIP: if you love and can take the heat, ask them to make your dish spicy. You will not be disappointed. Malbec compliments the menu impeccably.

From the outside this looks like your standard Indian restaurant (ambiance is fine). The food is great though... I've lived in NYC, SF and spent a month in India. I'd take saffron over most restaurants in any of those cities. It's really delicious and consistent. I've had the malai kofta, the matter paneer, most of the apps and breads, all great.
