8/10The restaurant was quite busy and we had decided to visit after reading th wonderful reviews. the service staff needs to be more knowledgeable about the dishes. i was recommended chicken chilli by the staff member . i enquired whether it was chinese indian, she said no. i should have listened to my instincts after reading the description. it was indeed chinese style chilli chicken meant to eaten with rice or by itself. but due to being misguided we ordered nan and roti . also then we had to order rice as there is no way that we were going to eat Bread with chinese style food. we also ordered paneer pakora , the paneer was not seasoned at all. would have nice for atleast to put some salt/cumin /coriander powder before deep frying it. the chutneys : tamarind was good but the green chutney had a funny taste and the third one may have need mango was not edible with Pakoras. Extremely dissapinted as this was my Birthday dinner and I was hoping for mouth watering food. .

9/10Service was very nice. Options on menu were good. I had the vegetarian plate with 3 sample sizes and rice and naan. It was very good. Many tables inside and out. Can't go wrong eating here. If you don't like spicy, be sure to tell them you want it mild.

6/10The outdoor cafe was welcoming and we had good service. Perhaps we are accustomed to more authentic Indian cuisine but this was lukewarm, from appetizers to our curries and though we asked for spicy, it was very bland.

9.5/10Really surprising to find a great Indian restaurant in the heart of Lisbon. We were craving something different and the meal that we had at Swaagat delivered just that. It was tasty, the servings were generous and the staff were very efficient and pleasant.

9/10Excellent from arrival to departure, this is a good Indian. We live in Portugal and struggle to find superb Indian restaurants, most are lacking atmosphere and full of artificial colours and ingredients. Not this place! Located on a street in downtown Lisbon, an area that is full of various restaurants, this place is worth visiting. The staff were good and friendly with a professional flair. The restaurant has a good vibe about itself being small, quaint and homely, toilets are clean & tidy too. The good quality ingredients made for a superb starters. For the main courses we had the chicken jalfrezi dish and a prawn karahi, again these were excellent in taste, presentation and quality. Served on hot plates too!. Overall, we rate it 8/10 on our table of 2 and it was good value for money at €59 with the food & beers.

5/10We were looking forward to the our meal, this was based in the good reviews. We were very disappointed. We didn’t feel that the food was freshly prepared or good quality. The onion bhajis didn’t look like the menu photo. They looked mass produced and reheated. The tandoori chicken was too dry and the aloo gobi was mostly just potato with very little cauliflower.

10/10A solid place with well made recipes. Staff is very very attentive and keeps on top of ensuring you are enjoying the experience. Great location too and very nice ambience in a touristy area. Just one thing - the definition of spice (hot) may vary - I am an Indian so my hot maybe their very hot…based on the customer profile … All in all - loved it and would recommend to anyone !!

4/10Good appetizer. We waited too long for the dishes. They brought out my partner’s main course way before mine. I have Chili chicken and it taste like General Tso chicken in America. Terrible! I kept turning around to get waiters’ attention my food and bill. Why was it rated 5 stars ok google review by so many people? This can’t happen in the US.

5/10A friend had recommended this restaurant but we were very disappointed with the quality of food. Very ordinary food that's of the standard of most Indian restaurants in Lisbon. Not much differentiation at all. Service was good.
