Best of Philly

2010 Indian Restaurant

Saffron Indian Kitchen

The layers of flavors at this Bala BYO take our Indian favorites up a notch, starting with the rice: Light, fluffy, and infused with the restaurant’s namesake spice, it’s the perfect starchy building block to a delicious meal. Don’t miss the saag paneer, in which the brilliantly spiced spinach what is that smoky note? shines (rather than the cream, for a change), or the tandoori-kissed lamb cubes in the house special boti kebab.
