3.0 of 5 stars. Honestly, I am not a fan of Saffire. I've been to this spot several times and I've been disappointed every single time. Their food is mediocre at best. I haven't had anything here for me wanting to...

Great Place to take a large Group or for Special Occasions

I use Saffires for clients who come in from out of town and to host large groups. They are great to deal with and will work with you in any way. Great place, great food, great service.
