Guys that helped me were friendly and very helpful.
Food was extremely tasty.
Portions very very small for almost $20 worth of food.
Would return. Hope they increase portion size for pricing though.
Our regular $20/each person restaurant meals usually 35% more food.
I had the Ox-Tail. Delicious food, excellently spiced, and service was great. On the other hand, it's difficult to justify the prices for the amount of meat provided. I would go back, but only when I NEED a Caribbean fix.
Don't listen to bad reveiws this place is always top notch and yes the jerk chicken can go fast so early is better . He makes a double batch on the weekends though .
Best Ox Tail I've Ever Had!. Oh wait... it is the only Ox Tail I have ever had. Either way I have to say I enjoyed my meal. I went in for Jerk Chicken but as I read from others they do not have everything on the menu ready all the time (weekday at 11:30am). If I waited another 20 minutes it would have been ready. I had Ox Tail instead and the flavour was delightfully mild. I could see it not being for everyone but I really liked it. The coleslaw worked with the meal but the rice and beans seemed a little too close to enhanced instant rice for my likening. Overall, a little pricy but very tasty. I will back. Unlike others, my service experience was just fine.
Its a small place kinda hidden but they have the best beef and chicken patties their jerk chicken with rice and coleslaw is to die for the chicken is tender falls right off the bone !! Will definately being dining here again !
Great food!. Don't let the small size and limited seating deceive you. This place makes excellent food! My wife and I went there for lunch today. She ordered the chicken curry while I ordered a combo plate of chicken curry and jerk chicken. The dishes were very tasty and left us salivating for more. We will be returning--with friends!
Oxtail stew in colourful surroundings. I wondered if "Safron" referred to the spice but, as it turns out, it is the first name of this delightful Caribbean outpost's owner. A colourful exterior gives way to a narrow but judiciously organized interior that sings with the aromas of different spices. I was there close to closing time and all they had left was oxtail stew. The pieces of oxtail are still on the bone - this requires some dental dexterity for nibbling, but the bones impart an impressive depth of flavour. The meat was tender, fragrant, and the rice and beans were generous and filling. I've heard so much about their jerk chicken. Next time.
Oh my...so great!. My family and i were tired of eating the typical meat and potatoes and wanted a change for dinner. went to safron's which was more than great and filling. for only 50.00 5 people ate and we jerk chicken, curry chicken and oxtail. don't let the name fool you it is better than great and my absolute favorite....a must try next to the jerk chicken. thanks for a great dinner safron : )
Great Patties. Recently back from the Cayman, and craving chicken patties. Found them here and boy where they delish. Can't wait to go back for the much-talked about jerk chicken!
My friends and I went here before a hockey game a couple of weeks ago and it was awesome. Just a small place where you order at the front and now many tables but the food was excellent. I ordered the Curried Goat and Jerk Chicken combo. The goat was great but the chicken was incredible. Not only the best Jerk Chicken I have had but some of the best chicken I have had period. Will go back next time I am in town for sure.
Jerk Chicken. Other people have been saying it and I'm saying it too: get the jerk chicken. I had the chicken and the curry goat and while the goat was also very good the jerk chicken was the real star. You also get a large plate of food for the price with delicious coleslaw and rice.
I'll be going to Safron's again for sure.
4/5. The jerk chicken is so awesome here that that's all I've tried in prolly 15 visits, my friend D tried the goat curry one time which was also tremendous. Not the greatest area, but take the gamble, you'll thank me. *some find the jerk chicken a bit spicy, but the coleslaw cools u off nicely
Most authentic caribbean food. This restaurant is the real deal. We have been visiting for years now and we can never get enough. All the dishes are certifiably authentic. Our favorite dish-the Jerk chicken is to die for but go early cause it does not last long - Yeh, its that GOOD!!
Best jamaican food in the city!!! Doesn't get any better than this!!
Heartwarming Carribean food. Friendly, family place for eating in or take out. Excellent jerk chicken, served with rice and beans and coleslaw. Chicken and rice well seasoned. My mouth is watering as I write this review!
A small hole-in the-wall restaurant but their food is delicious!
Good Caribbean food.... We went there because we had some of their food at taste of Edmonton, which was quite good.
When we went to the restaurant, we found it to be a very small place with only 4 or so tables and some window seats.
The food was good, but we found the prices a bit high (considering the area they are in).
Great food! Go early because when they run out of food they are out since it is made in an authentic fashion!
P. S It is locally owned 😊
A takeout diner style restaurant. They sell their own locally made jerk sauce and other products.
The jerk chicken meal and the stew beef meal are delicious. I usually go with oxtail sauce for my rice.
They also had DG pop. Safron the chef was on TV showing some of his meal creations. So, I decided to check It out and it did not disappoint.
The owner is such a nice guy and the food is amazing it never disappoints just wish the price was cheaper for the amount you get.
Amazing food. Everyone that works there are fantastic people. I can never decide what I want but they know I love their doubles
My late brother introduced me to Safron's over 19 years ago. Amazing food. I like getting the Oxtail and rice and doubles n hot sauce. Their doubles hot sauce is freshly made from scratch too.
Food very tasty i got today 2 lamb curry we enjoyed its homemade food and place very clean
Absolutely delicious, the food was very fresh tasted very authentic and the customer service was perfect.
Delicious food I've had the curry goat and curry chicken from there. So good and fast home cooked food. I'm eating it as I'm writing this.
