The food is really good, staff are very friendly. Without doubt has the best buffet for just 20$ for an adult, So totally worth it for the taste and variety. The restaurant was clean and well maintained. Sure gonna visit again
Amazing food cozy atmosphere, cant wait to come back. Flavors thag blew me away.
Okay so let me tell you the food is so good. The desert is fantastic except for the rasmalai I ordered once it was sour, but to be fair maybe it was just a bad batch that just happened to go bad and I'm willing to try it again. I had the butter chicken, the Tikka masala paneer and the naan it was chefs kiss worth every penny.
AMAZING FOOD You can tell they cook with love at this lovely restaurant. The waiters and staff are so friendly and it was nice to chat with them about their lovely food. We did the buffet option and MY GOD, every single dish was amazing. Food was fresh, tasty and yummy. Even the desert I wanted to keep eating. Will definitively come back to try the goat one day.
We were back to Swadist but this time, we dined in. The restaurant is very nice and has planty of seats. We ordered Pepper Lamb for appetizer. The meat was very tender and the sauce was amazing. We then had Butter Chicken Desi Style and Goat Laas Maal for entrees which we paired with Garlic Naan. The Naans were super crispy and garlicky. They went well with every dishes. The chicken and goat were both very tender. They were cooked perfectly. We loved their sauces a lot, which we had to order another order of Naan to dip in the sauce. The Laas Maal is a must-have. It was spicy and flavorful. We have no negative feeling about the restaurant at all. However, we think the portions was getting smaller compared to when we ordered to take out. The host was very friendly and attentive. She checked up on us regularly and helped us to choose our foods. The ambience was warm and cozy.
Been here twice (once takeout and once dine-in), and the food has been amazing both times! Very flavorful & large portions. Kind service.
This is one of the better Indian restaurants in Jersey City. The food is delicious and the service is good. We ordered a lot of appetizers and every one of them hit the spot. Their dessert is great too - we really enjoyed kulfi falooda and lava cake but other dessert was delicious as well. Must try restaurant. It is BYOB.
