I usually never leave bad reviews, but I cannot help it this time. I ordered the vegetable samosa as an appetiser and they came in a set of 2. I shared the first one with my partner and everything was fine. As I cut the second one open, I noticed immediately that the inside looked different, as it had a brown instead of a yellow potato filling. Upon closer inspection I realised that it was a meat samosa. It contained potatoes, peas, and a lot of brown ground meat specks. My partner, who is not vegetarian, took a bite of it and confirmed that it contained meat. They also ate from the vegetarian one, so they could tell a difference for sure. Being a little annoyed, as I have been vegetarian for over 10 years and almost took a bite of a meat samosa without realising, I called the waitress over to let her know about it. I tried being nice about it and kindly said that there had probably been a mistake, but that they had given us a meat samosa instead of a vegetable one. The waitress then proceeded to gaslight me and told me that that was impossible and that there was no meat in it. I was surprised since I did not expect that kind of reply and since I was looking at the meat lying right infront of me. Because I am not a Karen and don't make scenes with service workers, I just stopped retorting and the waitress left without offering a new samosa, or giving us the half that we ate for free. We then proceeded to overhear that same waitress loudly complain about us to her co-worker. At that point I was getting actually angry. What benefit does this restaurant gain from tricking me into eating meat when I do not want to? The audacity to not only gaslight a client and attempt to trick them into eating something they don't want to and then to badmouth them less than 3 metres away from them? The waitress came back to clear our plates and asked if we're not going to finish the samosa. I said no, since I am vegetarian and there's clearly meat in it. She laughed and repeated the same nonsense from before, took my plate and left (with my cutlery without giving me new ones btw). While eating our main meals (which were mediocre), she returned and asked if we would like to get our second samosa to go. At that point I felt like she was just mocking or taunting us and I considered leaving without paying. Since I am not a jerk, I didn't, and I assumed that we would not have to pay for the samosas, as her co-worker who handled payments seemed apologetic towards us (which further confirms their mistake). However, we had to pay for it and did not even get a discount or anything. Safe to say I will never return, and to any vegetarians considering Indian restaurants a safe option, reconsider going to this specific...
Read moreSwaggat Restaurant in Luxembourg invites you to embark on a captivating culinary adventure through the diverse flavors of India. Being a fan of Indian cuisine, I recently had the pleasure of dining at Swaggat and, let me tell you, it was a truly satisfying experience.
From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted by the warm and inviting ambiance of the restaurant. The staff, attentive and friendly, made me feel right at home as I settled into my table.
Now, let's talk about the food. Swaggat boasts an extensive menu filled with a plethora of Indian dishes, ranging from traditional favorites to chef's specials. In line with my preferences, I decided to start with the vegetable samosa, which was a delightful combination of crispy pastry and a flavorful vegetable filling.
For the main course, I opted for the chef's special chicken dish, which turned out to be an excellent choice. The chicken was tender and succulent, bathed in a delectable sauce that had just the right balance of spices. Every bite was a burst of flavors, and I savored the dish alongside fragrant basmati rice.
The chefs at Swaggat truly showcase their expertise in crafting authentic Indian cuisine. The flavors were vibrant, and the dishes were skillfully prepared. I appreciated the attention to detail and the dedication to maintaining the authenticity of each dish.
Now, while the dessert selection was decent, I would have loved to see a wider variety of traditional...
Read moreVisited the place on a Saturday night for dinner. Prior reservation through phone was done. Despite being an Indian and someone who can cook decent indian food, I understand how flavours and spices can be adjusted as per the palate that would suit Euporean audience. However, partially cooked meat - gosht Tikka and flavourless mutton biryani is something that I couldn't fathom. 3 stars for vegetarian dishes which were better than non veg dishes like malai kofta, aloo Gobhi and roti. Chilli paneer was served with rice, paneer was good but rice was a bit dry. Chicken malai tikka was served as a sizzler which was decent. Pappad, raita, pickled onions, sweet chutney were served...
