Best Restaurants for Spicy Food in North Central

My goodness, this place is incredible! From the really interesting mural on the wall (it's made from pieces of Mexican billboards and touched up regularly from the artist, a local from Austin), to the food, to the tequila, to the very informed and chill waiter - nothing fell short. Here are a few tips I want to share to make your experience top notch. 1.) Get the chicken tacos. You get three and they are small and perfectly Devine with homemade corn tortillas. We had them as an appetizer. It's a must do!! 2.) If you are into tequila, take a look at the epic list and discuss with your wait staff. The staff get educated regularly on different ones. I asked our guy to chose one for me - it was fully women owned and made. Omg - Devine! I sipped it over ice for dessert. Was so smooth and a perfect end to my meal. 3.) We don't like super spicy food so we opted for the chicken dish and ordered green beans as the side. You cut the chicken and use tortillas to made little tacos. We clearly missed that if it was written on the menu. There's fresh cilantro and onion which you can fold in. We also accidentally got the corn dish which we happily accepted and added to the tacos. The big differentiator here was the waiter. He properly informed us of every dish we inquired about. We avoided a few spicy land mines as a result and landed the "perfectly selected food plane"! We were recommended this place by a friend who lived in Austin. Take the locals recommendation! Yum yum yum!

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!

Service was really good. I did like the food mainly the dessert. The ambience was also very nice. I was not blown away by the veg tacos but thumbs up on the Nutella dessert.

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.
