This was well worth the trip to Key Biscayne. Only issue is that it was difficult to find. The sign is covered by overgrown tree. Once found, the restaurant is a gem. Unbelievable service, great menu and wonderful food.

Worth the trip over to Key Biscayne. Very good food, medium is pretty spicy, and we like spicy! Wasnt a crowded night but service was excellent. Chatted with the owner of 17 years (has to be doing something right!). Reasonable wine list. Will definitely be back.

Amazing authentic food prep on order, great chef/host/owner personality, Very nice new deco, place also has few outdoor tables. Ingredients are fresh and selected, every dish was prepared exactly as per personalized order preference. Lamb Samosa with minty sauce are amazing Great experience, highly recommend, price correct. Our left over were very well reconditioned and packed for us to take home and serve the next day.

We went to Ayesha Saffron to have an early dinner on New Year’s Eve and when we got there the sign read, “Closed for New Years Eve. How is OpenTable taking reservations if it was closed? There should be an update on Open table regarding the closures. So we had to go around looking for another restaurant.

Horrible, casi dos horas de espera por nuestra comida, después de reclamarla más de 5 veces llegó tardísimo y fría. Una pena porque la comida es buena, pero el servicio es el peor que he visto en mucho tiempo. Nada recomendable.

If we lived in key Biscayne, this would be one of our favorite restaurants. The service was professional and unobtrusive. The menu varied with unique interpretations of Indian fare. The portions generous...and most importantly well prepared! Spice levels at medium were just merely ‘hot’ though that may be that we enjoy spicy foods,, next time we would go for hot. Nevertheless the food was well presented with thought and just good cooking. Of all the Indian restaurant we’ve eaten around the world this was one of the best. Enjoy!

Great food. Fantastic, friendly, and attentive service. Some points taken off for: 1. inside chairs torn, in disrepair 2. (female) bathroom in decrepit condition, divergent from the rest of the restaurant’s physical plant

My favorite place for authentic Indian food. The owner and staff provide outstanding customer service. The owner truly makes you feel special and gives great recommendations if you can’t decided on your meal. It’s worth the drive even if you don’t live on Key Biscayne. Great wine selection, too!

Ate dinner there recently on a weeknight with two business acquaintances. Wasn't very crowded inside (about 8 tables/booths occupied out of 30 in two dining rooms. We chose to eat outside. Serivce was top notch but not intrusive. Waiter helped us navigate the menu and everything was perfect. Had Samosas and Chicken Tikka Lettuce Wraps (shocking pink!) to start, followed by Dal, Lamb Khorma and another Chicken dish accompanied by Garlic Naan. Everything was timed perfectly. A little pricey but not over the top and we shared the dishes amongst the three of us and no one left hungry or stuffed. Will definitely go back.

Great food, as in all other restaurants of the Ayesha chain we've tried, but ambiance the night we visited (on a Thursday) was sorely lacking. The culinary experience was excellent, however. The value, very good.
