I'm not a South Indian food fan and I disliked dosa so much but after visiting this place my view has completely changed. Now I'm in love with dosa and if it's from SFC!♥️
We tried Egg chicken dosa, Schezwan chicken dosa and lassi and in my personal opinion Schezwan dosa is love they serve chicken seperately so you can customize your own mouth watering bite. Lassi was soo refreshing with the sprinkle of rock salt. Quantity is sufficient and quality is also gd at reasonable price. In veg paneer is also available and other options too so from my side it's a BIG THUMB'S UP👍
This place is near my college and every other day I used to have my lunch here. The best is south indian dishes like Dosa .
So today is Onam❤️a traditional south indian festival.on the occasion of Onam I would like to share some authentic and best south indian dishes from saffron food cafe❤️the taste of chicken cheese dhosa was really awesome.but I just love the cheese uttapam 😍 it tasted like the original south indian uttapam ❤️if you haven't tried south indian food yet then this is the best place for you❤️
Love this joint. I've been here many times.
My Absolute favourite from this joint are~
• Dahi vada
• Mango Smoothie
• Butter Paper Masala Dosa
This photos are from my last visit. We had~

The food tasted awesome! And that coconut chutney is to die for!❤️
A perfect place to taste the authentic South Indian delicacies. Nice & cozy atmosphere to enjoy your family time!
The Saffron Restaurant is located beside Readymade Centre, Sodepur. This one’s a South Indian Restaurant serving a variety of veg and non-veg dishes. The ambiance of the restaurant is pretty and the staffs are courteous and the service is good.
Items we tried :
1. Dahi Vada - The vadas were soft and the chutney tasted really good.
Rating - 4/5
2. Schezwan Chicken Dosa - The dosa was big and crispy, loaded with schezwan chicken, tasted really good.
Rating - 4.2/5
If you live near the Sodepur locality and love South Indian dishes, they you should visit this restaurant.
I love this there service is great and food muuah chicken dosa and dahi vada just awesome only problem is the space is small I think that can be neglected as service is good
Last evening I stopped by this shop and tried cheese chicken omlette. I am really satisfied with the service and the taste of food. Try this place for sure, they serve varieties of dosa which are tasty too.
I have tried out this place a lot , however I have missed out on writing its review.
This is one of the 3 places which serves good dosa in sodepur.The other two being pramathnath and shibani sweets,but this one is a cut above them as it is a proper restaurant and not a makeshift eating place the other two.
We went there when my mother was having dosa cravings. We ordered rawa masala dosa,cheese masala dosa,idli and coconut uttapam.
The rawa masala dosa was obviously the star of the show.The masala aloo was served separately. The dosa was super huge and super crunchy.
The cheese masala dosa had decent serving of cheese.
The idli was soft and huge.
The coconut uttapam was kind of lacklustre.I would rather order masala uttapam next time or cheese.
The white chutney could have been thicker.I have had thicker white chutney at Haldirams.
The prices are in range of about 100 each.Total bill was 410.No separate taxes.
Oh and one more thing - a guy in the other table had ordered a chicken omlette. I couldnot stop myself drooling .It looked delicious. I will definitely order it next time.Recommended.

Love their dosa.
They serve the sambar as much as you needed.
The ambiance is good. The sitting arrangement is of approx 30ppl.
This retro is pocket friendly.
Best for southindian foods near sodpur. But it should be more clean and careful while serving. Taste is nice and price is pocket friendly. Good for evening hangouts with friends and family.

They serve amazing chicken dosa. Place is a bit small and sometimes you may have to share your table. The price is a bit on the upper side but the food quality is good. Overall nice place to sit and talk and eat.

Saffron Food Cafe, known primarily for its South Indian delicacies is located just above our all time favourite confectionery shop 'Mio Amore', Sodepur.
Ambiance of this place is quite good and the best part is they do maintain the hygiene of this place.
I always prefer to to have Dosas And Dahi Vadas from here. They own varieties of Dosas from normal plain dosa to masala dosa and even chicken dosas. Prices are quite affordable and quality of food is also pretty good. In case of home delivery also, they make good packaging.
Overall, if u r searching for a place where u can enjoy some good, delicious South Indian foods specifically in Sodepur then u should definitely visit this place and enjoy some real treats. ❤️
One of the best cafe's nearest to my location.. heard a lot about it ...so finally thought of visiting..nd did it ...nd yes I would recommend this cafe to everyone to try their authentic South Indian food with a twist of non veg.. must try

This place is perfect for a hangout.
Serves only south indian dishes along with some awesomes moctails and shakes.
Dishes are quite delicious as well.
They hv a short dining area.. Mainly dosa is famous here... Good taste... Must visit.. We had daniya dosa, chicken dosa, cheese dosa, and paneer dosa. Every item was good
This place is soo nice. It's very close to my college, so I often visit there with my friends. I love their chicken dosa, and cheese dosa. They provide a generous amount at a low budget. Though I don't quite like their beverage items. Their coffee is Heavenly good. Overall I love this place.
A north and south indian cuisine with neat and clean atmosphere. Food quality is rated 4.9/5 (personal opinion).
Service is fast and friendly staff. Nice for visiting with family,friends or colleagues.
Would recommend eating there. The staff were friendly and the food was obviously awesome. The food was reasonably priced as well and ambience is good enough.
Quite good place... ambience is great... they have customised every south indian dis and which actually tastes great... My personal choice here is Dahi Bada... Its great at cheap price... Awesome choice for college students. Dhosa with Chicken is also very Good... However, Mocktails need to improve...😊
Oh my god! This restaurant is bliss. The ambiance was superb. The seating was so nice. Celebrated my brother's birthday here. They were so well mannered and the restaurant is very well maintained.
Ordered Chicken dosas. Loved it. I never ever had something like this. It was so yummy and tasty. They serve the BEST chicken dosas. Firstly we were not so sure about it but then it turned out to be great!
Go and try it if you are lover of both non veg and south indian foods!
Saffron food cafe
Location- Sodepur
Ambience- Quite spacious.
Food- Mainly they serve south indian food. There are whole lot of variety in dosas. I tried masala dosa which was great specially because of the chutney & sambar. Give it a must try.
The plan was not to prance diet but appetite called for some healthy delicacies for lunch but at the same time it's requisite to maintain interspace from junk edibles and hence what could've been a better option than South Indian food.
Residing at Sodepur ( station road that leads to Traffic more ) just the opposite of Sriniketan Shopping Complex and comprising two floor edifice above Mio Amore, this venue serves literally dismaying South Indian nourishment in both VEG and NON-VEG catalogues as well as café-customary beverages and desserts at very reasonable price with no cavil in quantity they serve.
Special mention goes to the attendant named Mr. ABHRO who was chivalrous as well as non-manual in his hospitality and also came up with informative enlightenment regards placing our order as far as Quantity is concerned.
📯 Best place for South Indian Delicacies 🔊
: Framed :
✔ Cheese Butter Chicken Dosa ( INR 200/- )
✔ Spinach Chicken Dosa ( INR 180/- ) ♨️♨️
{ This particular was in their Winter Special Menu recommended by Mr. Abhro }
🍹 MOCKTAILS 🍸
✔ Green Mango ( INR 80/- )
✔ Black Current ( INR 80/- )
The ambience is utterly serene with an approx 18-20 accommodation capacity on the 1st floor and during occasions or heavy rush they open the 2nd floor as well.
Service is worth commendable. 👌🏻
♨️♨️ : : Highly Recommended
Disclaimer ▶️ Unbiased review based over my experience and it's a must visit for those who LOVE and also for those who doesn't love South Indian sustenance.
The chicken spinach dosa was really good. They don't have it on their menu but it was their special for this week.
The place is decent. Food tastes awesome. Must try, at an affordable price.
Actually I am not a south Indian food lover but i only love south Indian food because of saffron.. chicken dhosa is my favorite one. Must try it😇
I have been to this place a lot of times and being close to my close have even picked up for my home. I have tried Chicken Dosa, Schezwan Chicken Dosa, Masala Dosa and Idly as well. I found the Schezwan Chicken Dosa among the lot along with Butter Chicken Dosa a close second.
Very good ambience. Only South Indian food is available here different types of Dosa is available. Space is small but food Quality is very good. I have been here quite a few times.
The place is bit small but when you taste the food, space wont bother u anymore.
They serve awesome varieties of dosas which include non veg too.... I was overwhelmed tasting their food... A try for sure place.
dosa, uttapam, sambar vada, dahi vada, u name it.
every south indian dish is served with sambar and chutney.
u would love to return once u hv tasted any item.
Serves the best South Indian food in town... overall had very good experience everytime i visited this place... it is pocket friendly though
You will find this place just opposite of sodepur sriniketan, just above the mio amore outlet. The restaurant has less space, but they have made good use of the little space they have. There's a coffee day machine installed as well, which serves cappuccino and latte coffee. The place specializes in so many different kinds of dosa, you can find non-veg dosas as well. We ordered Paneer dosa, cheese dosa and plain masala dosa. The quantity is enough for one person. Not only does the dosa tastes great, but also all the 3 accompanying chutneys and sambar are of good quality. Price is reasonable. Really, got to have truly great dosa after a long long time. I am gonna recommend this place to everyone.
This is a very nice , cozy , n pocket friendly restaurant. Very tasty and various kinds of south indian delicacies are available . Staffs are also very friendly and helpful.
We ordered one plain dosa nd one masala dosa.. the quantity is enough for a person.. I love the dosa and specifically that chutni..💗💗💗 they serve samber nd white chutney as much as you want..
The ambiance is good.. and the food is tasty
I love this restaurant and the "doiboda" is awesome...i like it. Staff behavior is friendly. If you want south Indian dish in sodpure then the one and only way is Saffron.
Really an expert in south indian foods🤗😍...masala dosa..chicken dosa s are finger licking here.... specially the sambar and the posto bata😋🤩...but they need to be more careful regarding their beverages😐😐
I ordered 2 dishes from Saffron food cafe.
1.Chicken Schewann Dhosa.
2.Dahi vada.
M in love with tge chicken schewann dhosa ...it was so perfect at such a reasonable pruce!❤
Good decorations.
Staff are OK.
Food qualities are good.
But, according SFC's food qualities and quantity price are little bit high. !!

This restaurant was on my bucket list since a long time. As i love South Indian food a lot and it was very close to my office too, me and my colleague decided to hit this place after work. This restaurant is located just beside Mio Amore. The ambiance of this cafe was nice, Small and cozy and they have ac too , so don't worry you don't feel uncomfortable at all.
Coming to food we ordered 2 masala dosa and 2dahi vada. We thought that masala dosa was over priced cause one masala dosa cost 100/- but after got our masala dosa, we realized that it was really big and one dosa can fulfill two tummies. Taste was really nice and worth it for sure.
I'm not that fan of dahi vada but still it was quite good.
Overall a very nice experience..
Ooo yeah it's south indian food cafe..if u come saffron obviously check masala dosha and dai bara.. also u can check masala dosha combo.. at sodepur this is the only one cafe which provides best quality south indian food . .
the food is great. has inly south indian food but they are one of their kind. u need to keep up the good job. only problem is the limited seats available. sometimes u need to share seats with strangers
nice ambience and nice food..#lots of south Indian food variety#overall good in midium budget#but tea and coffee rates are higher than the other items...and these are not up to the mark..like ccd or others but rates r high
Best place to have varieties of dosa in north kolkata the place is decent enough for having dosa at a very reasonable price. The place is great enough for couples and family outing and hanging out with friends.
The first all South Indian cuisine serving restaurant in Sodepur, the place is a must visit for an authentic experience. The outlet opened after I left home, so wasn't able to pay a visit until it was nearly two years since it opened.
The ambiance is decent for a family dinner and cozy enough to hang out with friends. The food is, as mentioned earlier, a decent replication of what one can get down south (having the experience of being in Tamil Nadu for over a year). The varieties offered in Dosas is specially appealing, given there is usually not much tinkering done with the original recipe.
A family dinner planned on a Saturday and we ordered Butter Paneer Dosa and Egg Masala during our visit along with tea and coffee. The dosas were crisp on the edges and soft as one moved inwards. The amount of filling was adequate and tasted surprisingly good. The texture and blend of the ingredients were perfect and complemented well with the accompanying sambar and coconut chutney. The restaurant however, serves coffee and tea made out of a Cafe Coffee Day machine, so it might not be an exciting prospect for office goers. But if one considers just the food, it is every way worth the time and money.

A small place with normal interior near Shodepur, offers minimum 50 kinds of Dosa and the best Dosa I ever had. One plate of Dosa is quite enough for two people.
Overall good food..............................................prices are also affordable ................................................ ...
If you are staying in Sodepur and you are searching for South Indian food nearby then this is the place to be.
🔹️Venue:
The Saffron Food Cafe is located above the Sodepur Mio Amore nearby the shops of Readymade Centre. So this can be easily traced out without much efforts.
🔸️Ambience:
This is a small food joint and not much spacious but you will manage to grab a corner in normal days. So as the name suggest the decor of this outlet is just like a cafe, beautiful and subtle.
🔹️The Food:
So we decided to check in this place after our shopping. We ordered 2 plates of masala dosa and 1plate of paper masala dosa.
Masala Dosa:
The Masala Dosa tasted good. But the USP of this joint lies in the fact of their sambhar preparation and few other chutneys they serve with the coconut one. The Sambhar has the blend of authentic sambhar masalas along with the veggies. The consistancy of the gravy was thick unlike the most other places where it is generally bland and watery. The green mint pudina chutney and the red masala tomato chutney are the extra add ons to satiate your taste buds with variety. And yes you definately get the coconut chutney which is my all time favourite. So here giving 4/5
Paper Masala Dosa:
Everythings remains the same as I mentioned earlier. The sambhar, the potato masala, the green mint chutney, the red tomato masala chutney and the coconut chutney. Well, the difference is that this dosa has the "crunch factor" so it aptly earns the title of paper. Definately 4.5/5
👨🍳Service:
The service here is also unique. The staffs here are allocated with different duties. There is man to take order, another man to serve then another to provide additional help and so on. Still I feel the service can be a little prompt, so 3/5.
✔Overall experience is good with this place. I have earlier tried out their paneer masala dosa and egg masala dosa all these were equally appetizing. If you wish to infuse non veg then definately they have options for egg and chicken. So I'll hit this place whenever I have craving for South Indian items.
I loved this place...But please do mention that even though it says Open from 10:30am it doesn't actually start their service before 12pm...
Nice ambience ..
Food quality was pretty good ..
I ordered one chicken dosa and a cheese masala dosa . Taste was really nice. I ordered butterscotch ice-cream too. And I took idly for my home. I'll definitely visit there again.
Nice place, give a try 😊❤
The place is a little far away from Kolkata but the food is definitely worth the travel. They serve a HUGE variety of dosas and other south Indian food which are great in both quality and quantity. The atmosphere is also really clean and hygenic. Definitely worth a visit.
One of the best south indian food joints in sodepur,located just opposite to Sreeniketan and above Mio Amore ....they serves variety of veg and nonveg south indian dishes...but their dosas are just too good...we ordered paneer dosa which is very delicious as well as enough in quantity....but one bad thing is their staffs..they are even reluctant to bring the bill...
I visit this place yesterday.. Inside space is not so huge but the food quality is really great. We have tried many types of dosa. Pocket friendly. We have tried paneer cheess dosa, butter cheese masala dosa, and one plain cheese dosa.
I ordered chicken uttapam which was pretty good....And chicken dosa was the best one as I have also tested non veg disaat from other famous etaries but ....None of them was so good
South Indian dishes are best in here. There are plenty of restaurants serve South Indian food but if you really want to taste or craving for dosa these should be on the top of the list in sodepur😌
The place is well maintained.
Behaviour is very good.
The food is delicious and penny-worthy! Do try the chicken dosa..... They serve the food fresh and fast ....a perfect place to go with friends and families.... 🤍
I have been to this restaurant multiple times. Dhosas are quite amazing, especially Chicken Dhosa. But I have noticed one thing every time I have ordered any milkshakes they took huge amounts of time to serve. Even had to wait after finishing the meal. And the taste is average.
AMAZING ❤️
I'm not a big fan of South Indian food. But I fell in love with the chicken egg cheese dosa.
All the chutneys were amazing as well.
The dahi vada was soo refreshing.
I didn't like the soft drink only. Except that everything was just amazing. Definitely gonna visit there again ❤️❤️❤️
Place for best south indian food and even at a very affordable price... just love this place.
Food quality and quantity is very good. Affordable south Indian restaurant. Recommended to everyone for visit once . Overall 8.5 out of 10.
Try cheese chicken butter masala & panner masala dhosha is best .. don't try bririyani it's a waste of money...
It's a quaint little place where you'll find varieties of South Indian dishes major focus on the different Dosas they make. The food is good. The staff behaviour is good as well. Overall I always have a good experience there.
I've been eating in saffron for quite a long time. The quality of food has remained the the same. It's delicious and and gives you full satisfaction. Love to eat here.
We are regular customers of this restaurant. They are humble and offer good service.
