    Upon arrival I had to wait several minutes prior to being seated. There were 5 of us and we were seated at a very small table. Our server was nice, but slow at times. Also, it was off putting to find out that the lunch menu on the weekend was the same as the dinner menu. We all enjoyed our meals, the food was well prepared and very tasty. Overall, it was a mixed experience.

    Zaffrons COULD be my absolute favorite Persian restaurant in the area IF it offered CHOICE of rice WITHOUT an added charge, like others (nameless) in the area DO. I'd try a lot of other dishes if patron were allowed to choose the rice accompaniment without a substitution charge. Other that that , LOVE it.

    Have been to Zafron's several times before, but this was a disappointment. My husband's beef tenderloin was dry. The stew I ordered was really not acceptable. Took about four bites and that was all I could handle.

    Outstanding as always. The food, the service, the ambiance, it has it all. Labneh appetizer with naan as delicious starters. Love the shish kabob with orange rice. Of course the Sultans meal is a must.
