"Once there were tons of these modest Punjabi steam table restaurants scattered around town, dispensing hearty meat curries and sturdy vegetable dishes with rice, naans, chutney, dal, raita, and a perfunctory undressed salad. Now Swagat is one of the few remaining. Lamb and chicken curries are the mainstays, with tandoori kebabs another major focus. Ten or so main dishes per day are supplemented with apps like bhel poori (a crunchy chaat) and fish pakora (bright red fritters). Chicken or vegetarian lunch specials are a particularly good deal." - Robert Sietsema
