Riverside Restaurant Guide

Saffron's passion is creating unique restaurants in historic venues. Saffron's first historic venue was at the popular Guasti Villa, a 1923 mission revival mansion at the historic company town of Guasti (Ontario), California. This half-a-million dollar renovation resulted in the area's premier historic dining and events venue. This property was sold for impending redevelopment, but Saffron's passion for renovating and creating unique historic venues was born. Saffron feels that there is no substitute for the subtle energy of an authentic historic building. Maybe it's the 20 coats of paint, the hand crafted details, or the sense of wonder of, "who's been here" through the ages. Whatever that feeling is, it is irreplaceable and provides the perfect foundation for a memorable dining experience. Saffron works with the historic "bones" of the building then provides tasteful contemporary touches to create a one-of-a kind dining experience.
