Sociable Earth Saffron Restaurant at Tanjung Rhu Resort offers a dining experience that is as memorable for its food as it is for its breathtaking views.
Located right on the beach, this ocean-view restaurant allows you to enjoy your meal either indoors in a relaxed, stylish setting or outside where you can dine al fresco with the Andaman Sea as your backdrop. The combination of excellent food and stunning scenery makes Saffron an unforgettable destination for anyone visiting Langkawi.
Whether you choose to sit inside or out, the atmosphere at Saffron is truly special. The outdoor seating, just steps from the beach, offers unparalleled views of the sea and a soothing breeze, making it an ideal spot for a relaxed, beachside meal. For those looking to dine indoors, the restaurant’s interior is equally inviting, with a casual yet refined ambience that complements the surrounding natural beauty.
The menu at Saffron is mostly western bites, with plenty of options for their signature wood-fired pizzas along with sides like nachos and pasta dishes. We started with the nachos, which were wonderfully crisp and loaded with a generous amount of toppings—just the right balance of cheesy goodness and crunch.
The chicken tikka dish was another standout, offering tender, flavourful chicken with the perfect blend of spices. It was both hearty and satisfying, making it a great choice for those who enjoy rich, aromatic flavours.
The highlight of the meal, however, was the wood-fired pizzas. Each pizza was perfectly baked, with a thin, crispy crust and fresh ingredients that really made the flavours pop. The Hawaiian pizza was exactly as expected—a delightful combination of sweet pineapple and savoury halal meat that never fails to please.
But for something more unique, the mutton curry pizza was an absolute treat. The rich, spiced mutton paired beautifully with the crispy base, offering a truly original and delicious take on a classic dish. The beef pepperoni pizza was another favourite, generously topped with hearty pepperoni slices and a perfectly balanced amount of cheese, making it the ultimate comfort food.
To complement the meal, we enjoyed a selection of mocktails, which were refreshingly light and a delight to look at.
Overall, Saffron Restaurant at Tanjung Rhu Resort is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy excellent food in a truly stunning location. The combination of its ocean-view dining, whether you choose to sit inside or right on the beach, and the variety of delicious wood-fired pizzas make it an exceptional dining experience. Whether you’re a pizza lover or simply looking to enjoy a beautiful meal by the sea, Saffron won’t disappoint.
