text: I used to be a huge fan of Saffron. However, they are obviously cutting corners on authenticity to save money. The lunch buffet is very watered down and disappointing. Dinner is better, but the people that work there almost seem annoyed by you and seem to just want to make money in the cheapest way possible. Sorry for the bad review, but there are much better Indian places to eat in Charlotte. P.S. don't drink the water... not even lime or lemon can help what is coming out of Saffron's faucets.
