Saffron: Indian and Chinese flavours in the old town

Saffron is an Indian and Chinese restaurant tucked away in a charming alley at the heart of Rethymno’s old town. The tables and inviting atmosphere beckon you to sit down and enjoy the mouth-watering aromas that fill the air.

This is a family-run restaurant, where each dish is freshly prepared and served piping hot, with portions that are satisfyingly generous. The service is excellent, with staff who genuinely care about every guest. They’re more than happy to adjust the spice level of any dish to suit your taste.

The interior features a relaxed ambiance, with dim lighting, red tablecloths, and an inviting, cozy feel.

When you visit, be sure to try the tender chicken with korma or jalfrezi sauces, or the chicken tikka – boneless chicken marinated in yogurt and spices.
