Was skeptical that there could actually be tasty food in downtown Louisville but Saffron's surprised me. Chicken kebobs were excellent - I tend to not order chicken when I go out since, most often, it comes out dry and tasteless. This chicken was some of the best chicken I've ever had - lots of herbs and spices made for great... More

I was in Louisville for a business conference, found this restaurant on Trip Advisor and dined with 4 friends. The place was not very busy on a Thursday night and we were well taken care of by an enthusiastic and attentive wait staff. They started us off with a plate of veggies and cheese with warm pita bread as soon... More

This was the Friday before the Derby and we made reservations through our hotel. It was a very nice restaurant. The food was great! It was crowded but the people were not loud as in other restauruants we had visited. Our waiter was okay but it did not detract from our expereince.

I had a half order of rack of lamb and couldn't get through it all. they even make their own infused vodkas for truly unique martinis- not sickly sweet, but packed with flavor.

This was one of my Mom's favorite restaurants when she was working downtown. The food is delicious and healthy and so different from what you'll find other places. The service is fantastic also. It's a regular stop for me when I have the opportunity to dine downtown at lunchtime.

The lamb shank was extremely flavorful and tender. Make sure you come hungry because it is a very large portion!

If you like lamb as much as i do, you have to give there's a try, this was the best lamb i have ever had
