Highly recommending to families also has parking facilities. Sawai has some really interesting veg gourmet food. When you are bored with your regular Butter Paneer Masala from other restaurants, Head on to Sawai veg for some really unique veg mains and starters.

Starting with food ▪Kung Pao Soup This kinda looked like the veg clear soup. The flavours were nice and the hot exotic flavour of garlic was on point. Definitely recommending to star over your meal with some hot soup. Not very heavy but light and satisfying for sure

▪SUNDARI KEBAB AND PANEER BANJARA KEBAB Sundari Kebab included stuffed mushrooms nicely marinated and grilled. I'm personally not fond of mushrooms as such but the Sundari Mushrooms were lovely. Paneer Banjara Kebab was marinated Paneer grilled with veggies and served hot. Lemme highlight this point *Paneer was super fresh and soft which made starter even more better. You could literally feel the freshness in the first bight

▪VEG OREO Loved this one! The vegetable cutlets served on hot pan with steaming hot sauce and some freshly cut veggies. It tasted somewhat like manchurian balls but definitely the sauce takes a level up of the taste

▪VEG NURANI Richly scrumptious Paneer gravy with grated cheese goes perfect wuth your butter naan. As i mentioned previously, the Paneer used was super soft as good paneer raises the bar of the dish. They have many new variants in Indian gravies, do explore the menu.

▪CHAMAN CHAKORI PANEER MUSHROOM The dish itself looked very interesting . Deep fried small rounds of puris were placed on the bed of the lovely red gravy made using Paneers and Mushrooms. Flavours on point not at all bland. Quantity is pretty good.

▪FRUIT PUNCH Fruit punch was a mocktail made from fruits (obviously 😂) the name justifies to it because as you take a sip, it results in punch of sweet and tangy flavour. Really impressed with the mocktail. Would like to explore the mocktails more from here.

▪RAJA RANI Sundae Combination of icecreams a d kulfi with cherries, dryfruits, jellies is just way to perfect and soul satisfying ti end your food. The presentation is done so well. They have many options available in Sundae, do try one.

⚠️Long post alert!!!⚠️

This post is not written to defame or just to highlight flaws. I hope management & staff will improve their service and quality by reading this.

I've been to sawai earlier for 2-3 times. Every time we had good experience, however, last Sunday's visit (20th Feb 22) was disappointing. We reached sawai at around 8 pm & got a table quickly as there was no waiting at that time.

In drinks, We ordered pineapple, mosambi juices which were OK. I ordered a mocktail called 'fruit punch' which they served pretty late, that too after reminding 2-3 times.

In food, we had 'harabhara kebab' which was good in taste but tough and chewy to eat. It seemed like it was prepared a few hours ago and served to us when ordered. Another starter was 'cheese soneri kebab', it was good in taste and texture too.

In main course, we had 'Lazzatdar tikka masala' and 'Sarson ka saag'. Both veggies were disappointing. Tikka masala had same old harabhara kebabs soaked in yellow gravy which had methi in it. Didn't like much, as kebabs were hard to eat. Sarson ka saag was more like methichi bhaji 😂 It lacked sarso in it and had some strange smell which was not like sarso. I had very good sarson ka saag at some places in Pune. Butter roti & garlic roti were soft & served real hot. Quantity of veggies was good which I really appreciate.

As we could not finish both the veggies, we asked them to parcel the same. The guy gave us a paper bag with veggies packed in it while leaving. Next morning we opened the parcel and got shocked! The guy who packed it did the worst thing. He mixed both the veggies in a single plastic bag and that too the wrong ones. We got the parcel which we did not order or ate there. 🙄🙄 They have packed and gave us some other table's leftover parcel 😝 which is disgusting.

Rest of the things I observed were there was too much waiting, courtesy Sunday evening. Staff could not manage the crowd. Many people were sitting idle with empty plates on their table and orders placed, waiting for food. The management were taking so much time to serve orders.

Over-all it was a chaotic scene. I'll advise please avoid visiting this place on Sunday evening, you might get disappointed.
