I’ve been to Swagath many times over the past few months, and it never disappoints! The food is absolutely incredible by far the best I’ve ever had and the service is always top-notch. Every visit feels like a great experience. If you haven’t been here yet, you’re truly missing out!
October 2025
We have been to many Indian restaurants. This was up with the best we've had. True Indian cuisine. Michigan State has 50000+ on-campus students, multiply that by family and friends, and if some of you visitors seek authentic Indian food try Swagath. \nIf You E. Lansing Swagath owner/operator folks are checking your reviews, we really liked everything , but we suggest you find an interior advisor (e.g. some where around MSU, and change your lighting). Make yuor dining area...

This is the best hidden gem in Lansing. Every friend or family member I have brought here has raved about it. \n\nNot only is the food great, the staff are all very polite, kind, and genuine. A fantastic experience every time\n\nHands down, I would recommend them. Happy Diwali!
