Reneta ThurairatnamMarch 14, 2014Definitely start with the Atay. Bastilla is a great app if you're looking for savory and sweet. Definitely try a tajine. I recommend lamb. Finish with baklava. Do NOT get the tiramisu. You're welcome.
Adwoa UJune 10, 2016Top rated lamb tajine is so tender and perfect with couscous. Antipasti dish of hummus, spinach & eggplant spread were also winners. We will definitely be back
Jenny PollockMarch 14, 2014It was great had a homey feel because its so small. Be adventurous I feel like its one of those places where everything on the menus is good!
Andrew FurmanMay 25, 2016The bastilla appetizer is really good (almost like a pie stuffed with chicken)
Try these items & you will not be disappointed: Antipasto Plate -Lamb & Chicken Kabbabs -Tilapia Tajine -Paella -Shawarma -Atay Moroccan Tea.

Cindy RobbinsJune 5, 2011One of my favorite Indianapolis restaurants, everything is good and friendly nice atmosphere ... make sure to save room for Moroccan coffee and dessert!
Aaron LaramoreDecember 21, 2009The Saffron Cafe is a lovely, intimate restaurant, perfect for a nice dinner for two or a dinner party with couple friends. My wife and I meet there for lunch on occasion. A lovely little spot.
Erin MeyerSeptember 25, 2010Delicious! Ask about the specials & try the lamb honey (even if you don't think you like lamb)- sweet and tender. Service was great too!
ChristinaFebruary 8, 2014Saffron fettuccine Alfredo was recommended in Indy Monthly - I'd like to try it soon!
Coffee is uber good. If you try putting cream in it, I will find you.
Jake MillerMay 16, 2010Order the ginger chicken Tajine and make sure you dip your break in the sauce! Delicious! 5 stars.
- The bastilla is a dessert-like appetizer that is different and delicious.
