Best Restaurants for Spicy Food in Central Austin

Chelsea was a phenomenal server. Delicious food, great recommendations for our choices, made my friend visiting from Cali for her birthday feel really special ( thank you for no awkward singing). Counter seats were great to see the action in the kitchen but the chairs were a bit uncomfortable and had quite a cold draft blowing down. Fully understood it’s needed to keep the kitchen staff feeling cool in front of those hot stoves so will just make sure to reserve a standard table next time. Will definitely be back!

We arrive here on our reservation time. I like that’s it’s quite. The server was very good I wanted the steak and egg (medium well) but she said order it on medium so it’s not dry so I went with it, don’t regret it I loved it. My girl ordered her French toast and she told me to give it a 5 star and recommend it. My baby got the fruits and I tasted all the fruit that’s in it. They picked the very good ones. My husband food was great too. The hostess was very welcoming. He is a handsome guy but I didn’t see his name. Anyways all the crew was very nice, knowledgeable and hospitable. I have a baby and a 8 year old so they made sure we have the right seat for both of my kids. Food was served hot and presentable. I have been to restaurants all over Texas but this is the Only place that has this kind of crew. I loved my 1st time here. We will definitely come back.

Always fabulous food, fun ambiance and wonderful service! Very friendly staff and attentive care! The jazz on Saturday night was fantastic! Love the Mexican martinis!

Great food great service. The grilled oysters were delicious. The scallion and shiitake pancakes were really good. The blue crab on crispy rice was nice light. The half bird fried chicken was really good along with the sauce and then the steak frites very well made and cooked nicely and the pepper sauce was delicious The staff was very friendly and accommodating will definitely be coming back

Our visit to Saffron on Saturday night was very satisfying! The service is excellent and the food is really special. We love the scallops for an appetizer. They sauce they use with them is amazing. We both got fish dishes off the Indian selections and they were excellent. We have gone often in the past and are happy to start putting this wonderful, quiet gem back on our regular schedule.
