The Chicken Chettinad at Swad blew me away with its bold Indian spices! The green salad was fresh and crisp, and the mango ice cream for dessert was a sweet treat. Highly recommend!

Had a fantastic meal at Swad! The Gobi Manchurian was crispy and full of flavor, and the Broccoli Manchurian with its tangy sauce was a perfect starter. The plain yogurt on the side was a refreshing touch!

Loved the Chicken Madras at Swad—those juicy lamb fritters with spices and herbs were amazing! Paired it with a sweet lassi, and the combo was just heavenly. Can’t wait to return!
