Saffron South pairs traditional Indian cooking with a dedicated Nepalese menu, which the restaurant says was the first of its kind in Austin. The Nepalese side draws on dishes native to the country as well as ones shaped by its neighbors, India and China, reflecting Nepal's position between the two culinary traditions.
Sauces, naans, and desserts are made in house from scratch, and the kitchen sources much of its produce locally. The restaurant is halal.
