Best fresh spring rolls in town
I drop by all the time for their fresh spring rolls! The typical Thai dishes (like Pad See Ew) are incredible too. Also, the take out side must have the fastest counter workers you will ever see. I love to watch them sling hash!Excellent Casual Dining
Saffron offers a casual setting decorated with fun glass sculptures along with exceptional food. It has a fun ambiance and exotic flavors that set it apart from other Thai restaurants. The prices are good and the place unique. Be sure to try the lemongrass iced tea and coconut sticky rice with fresh mangoes for dessert.Fresh and fast food in a friendly environment
I've been here a few times for dinner, and have never been dissapointed. Fast and friendly service. We also ordered a big take out order here for a work lunchone and it was fabulous. The owner was accomodating to our special requests. Highly recommended.Saffron-Chicken is Great!
Yum Yum and Yum! I have been here many times and always try to get something different...I have never been disappointed! The food and service are great! Parking is tough on weekends, but it is San Diego..so don't be afraid to park far and WALK!Best fresh spring rolls in town

Inside this simple, unpretentious restaurant at the foot of Mission Hills is some of the best Thai food in all of San Diego. The place not lavish, although there's lots of artwork displayed from the owner's husband. Nevertheless, the food is made is much care and attention. The Pad Thai is top-notch as well as the Drunken Noodles. Their barbeque Thai Chicken is the specialty of the house and highly recommended. And because the restaurant is informal, it's nice to be able to find great Thai food without having to get dressed up. Or to grab a quick bite late at night. The only drawback is the wait in line can be quite long, especially at lunchtime and on weekend nights. Parking can also be hard to find along India Street. All in all though, you won't be disappointed!Really Bad Thai Food
I simply love Thai food, but the food at Saffron was the worst I've ever had. We ordered the Thai barbecue chicken, spicy beef panang, stir-fried vegetables and the shrimp Pad Thai. The supposed Thai barbecue chicken was uninspiring; it was merely roasted chicken that completely lacked seasoning. There was nothing Thai about it. Panang is my favorite curry dish. This beef panang dish was simply a travesty and a disgrace. It reminded me of day old beef stew that you would find at any American high school cafeteria with a little bit of spice thrown in. The stir-fried vegetables were remarkably tasteless. I was immediately suspicious of the pad thai when I saw the small cocktail shrimp interspersed through the dry, tasteless noodles. The pad thai was not memorable at all. Overall, the meal was extremely disappointing, lacked authenticity, and it was relatively pricey for the quality ($31+ for our meal). If you are a lover of Thai food, authentic or not, I think you will be very disappointed as I was.Special place, great Thai food!
The food is really good and freshUh oh
I've had better Thai food at a mall food court. The food was cheap, quick, and the service was good. However, the actual food was bland at best. I ordered the Eslam -Spicy Noodle with chicken, if that is what you want to call the 6 tiny pieces of white meat with no flavor they gave us. It tasted like chicken broth and the "spicy" was only a tiny plastic ramekin with hot peppers I'm assuming they wanted us to put in the dish ourselves.Worldwide > United States > San Diego, CA > Restaurants
