If youre looking at reviews and wondering if this restaurant is worth a shot, just go for it. You won't be disappointed. Incredible flavoursome food, super friendly staff and seriously nice setting restaurant. Reasonably priced, I reccomend the specials! The banging lamb was banging. Wow. Best Indian food we've ever had. Thank you so much.

We ordered paneer, mushroom for starters; paneer tikka masala and stuff brinjal for main course along with chilli naan, all were excellent. I've mentioned all the dishes for my own memory so that I remember what I definitely need to order when I visit again. Staff was courteous and helpful. I would recommend this place.

We had the goat curry and the banging lamb and both were just delicious- perfect balance of spices. It’s great that you can ask how hot you would like your food prepared- we opted for mild, which was the right amount of kick for us. The onion bhaji was light, crispy and gluten free, just the way I like it. Recommend the mint sauce with it! Owner was lovely and it created a wonderful atmosphere. Will come again! X

The food and hospitality at Swagat was incredible.

We ordered three starters and main course. All the items were very tasty.

Kiran, the owner of the restaurant is such a warm person 🫶
She also helped us to book a taxi to Sandling station.
I would definitely recommend to visit Swagat and taste their incredible food and hospitality.

Calling this curry is like calling all red wine ‘wine’, rather than distinguish between different types. Its a variation of what I’m used to and my new favourite. Gorgeous food and a good price.
Great place. Very good service by the team especially Jeeth, with warm welcome and suggestions for food and cocktail! We had Nepalese food with cocktail. Authentic nepalai taste of food. Great place to go. All the best guys. Jeeth you did Great man, would love to come back again.
