You'll find yourself on one of Soho's most characterful stretches, where Saffron sits among the bars and late-night spots that give the neighbourhood its particular energy. Walk in and you're met with warm lighting and a smartly dressed room that doesn't try too hard—it's the kind of place where locals pile in on a Tuesday night as readily as weekends. The kitchen takes Indian food seriously without being pretentious about it; expect generously spiced curries, proper tandoor work, and a wine list that actually understands what pairs with heat and depth.
