Saffron Bites in the UA Student Union, amazing! We were there for Vail staff day. Me and my friend choose Saffron Bites to eat at. With the building overwhelmed with hungry patrons, the employees at Saffron Bites handed out samples and endlessly helped us through the ordering of our food. They were so patient and helpful. We were so glad we ate there. Thank you! Your customer service is tops! What a great experience and great food.
