Swad Restaurant in Lethbridge

Great menu, food quality and source of culinary information. Vegetarian and gluten free options.

We had a staff Christmas party and the food was amazing. The service was great and helped us select amazing dishes to eat. What a treat to have this establishment in Lethbridge. Amazing selections. Dietary restrictions: They have had the most gluten free options we have ever seen and made accommodations for dairy free options too.

Food was good. Hospitality was great. Manpreet was very attentive and friendly. Will be back for sure.

Swad Restaurant is a culinary treasure that brings the rich and authentic flavors of South India to Alberta. From the moment we walked in, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The restaurant offers ample parking, making it stress-free to visit, and the ambiance strikes the perfect balance between calm and vibrant a welcoming setting for any occasion. We have tried South Indian biryani and beef roast at various restaurants across Alberta, but Swad Restaurant has truly set a new benchmark. Nowhere else have we encountered such an authentic and realistic Malabar taste. The Chicken 65 Biryani was a revelation, with tender, perfectly spiced chicken paired with fragrant, flavorful rice. The Goat Biryani was equally outstanding, with succulent pieces of meat cooked to perfection and infused with spices that transported us straight to Kerala. The Beef Roast was a standout dish, rich in flavor and impeccably spiced, delivering a true taste of home-cooked Malabar cuisine. The Kerala Porota was soft, flaky, and fresh, serving as the ideal accompaniment. The Beef Kothu Porota was another highlight, with its shredded porota and spiced beef mixed to create a dish that was both hearty and bursting with flavor. We rounded off the meal with a Sharjah Shake, a creamy and refreshing treat that perfectly complemented the meal. Beyond the exceptional food, the cleanliness of the restaurant and the attentive, friendly service made the dining experience even more enjoyable. Every detail reflected the restaurants commitment to quality and authenticity. Swad Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone craving genuine South Indian flavors. It is, without a doubt, the best place to savor Malabar cuisine in Alberta. We can t wait to return and explore more of their incredible menu!

Manpreet was excellent with service and very friendly in nature her suggestion with the food was amazing.. Must try place for Indian food. Food

Great customer service, perfect taste, Manpreet was the great host for the day . Vegetarian options: Panner chilli and fried rice . Perfect go to

I ate dinner here the other night and I absolutely loved everything I got!! The service and food was incredible and I cant wait to come back as soon as I can!!

Always so delicious and great service!

Swad Restaurant exceeded all expectations! The food was absolutely delicious, and the flavors were incredible. The server, Manpreet, was exceptionally friendly and provided great recommendations that made the experience even better. This is definitely a must-try spot for anyone looking for amazing food and excellent service!

Service was great, both the girls who served at our table were respectful to talk as they didnt interrupt us while enjoying the food but were checking in if we needed anything. Food tasted amazing, we chose this restaurant for 3 straight nights during our stay in Lethbridge. Support local business, Albert Strong

The food was disappointing bland and lacking flavor (and salt). The staff were inattentive, taking 15 minutes just to take our order and a full hour to serve our dosas, despite the restaurant being almost empty (only one other table was occupied). The dosas were overly greasy and didn t justify the high prices. Overall, not worth the experience.

We visited with a small group of friends and had a great experience! Our server was awesome, she was funny and took great care of us. I wish I could remember her name! We arent super adventurous eaters but she was able to help us all decide on something we would enjoy. We will be back for sure.

Amazing South Indian Food!!!!! We were very impressed with the dosa, biryani, gobi 65, and fish pakora we had. Absolutely delicious!!! Highly recommend this restaurant. Manpreet, our server, was excellent and also very friendly. We left very full and happy . Prices are excellent as well. Will be back! Dietary restrictions: Many vegetarian options!!! Very tasty. One person in an our party has a dairy allergy. They too had tons of options to choose from.

Food is amazing! I ve been here multiple times and never had a bad dish.

The food was incredible! And Prabhjot Kaur was a fabulous server. We will be coming back again

Always delicious, flavorful, and interesting. Ive never been disappointed. One of the best restaurants in town!

Stopped by Swads for lunch, food was absolutely amazing, we got the butter chicken, beef vindalo, veggie chettinadu (which was my favorite) and aloo gobi. Our server was Neha and she was so friendly and helpful with some of the dietary issues in our lunch party. Highly recommend.

Was good, wanted traditional curry chicken n was not available. No fresh naans

I tried your food at the Diwali celebration. Delicious!

Food here is always so tasty. We love trying all the different flavour of Dosa. Pricing is also very reasonable. Dietary restrictions: Have great gluten friendly options.

Had a nice time there.

Had amazing Kerala chicken curry and tasted close to my moms curry! I dont remember the servers name but she was wonderful and helpful!

Neha did an excellent service.

If I could rate this restaurant with 10 stars I would. They serve the best authentic Kerala food in North America, at par with any best Kerala restaurant in Kerala. Everything was impeccable. The food could not have been better. Every bite was delicious. I been here 3 times in last week.

Best Indian food available in Lethbridge. Beef coconut fry is a must try.

The best South Indian food I have ever had. Absolutely delicious. Large selection of amazing dishes. Friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. Probably the biggest dosas available in Lethbridge. Must try Indian restaurant in Alberta.

Awesome food and service Server manpreet Food

The restaurant has the feel of a diner. There are booths and a few tables. It is very clean and frankly I liked the feel. It was fine. The service was attentive and the advice I was given was great. I really appreciated the service. I had a marsala dosa. It was excellent. The sauces were on point. Really nice. I am now going to be a regular.

Wonderful meal, great service. Especially loved the dosa and chicken biriyani. Highly recommend!

Very tasty food, first time exeperience and was very amzing. Vegetarian options: Plenty of veg options and verity of dishes Food : 5/5 |

Our family had an absolutely fantastic dining experience at swad. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and a cozy atmosphere. The owner was so polite and humble.highly recommened.

The Biriyani is sooo good.

True to its name.Finest Dosas is Canada .Nobody can make them better.

Super long waiting time, Ive waited for about 35 mins for one dish.... Also, I told the server I dont want a spicy dish but they finally made it spicy... They finally changed me a non spicy one though.

Authentic south indian food. Got a parcel for idli but the idlis were really hard, hence 4 star.

My favourite restaurant in Lethbridge! The food is always so tasty. Ive tried a bunch of different vegetarian curries and dosa and theyve all been excellent. Vegetarian options: They have a whole vegetarian section!

Delicious food, excellent service and beautiful space

I was visiting Lethbridge. Tried noodles and vada. Was really good. Quality and quantity 5/5 Vegetarian options: Yes

A Mixed Experience: Great Service, but Food is Hit or Miss I recently visited and tried a variety of dishes. While some were enjoyable, others fell short of expectations: - **Oreo Milkshake**: For $7.99, I expected a thick, indulgent drink, but it felt more like milk with a hint of Oreo. It was thinner than expected and lacked flavor. - **Podi Masala Dosa**: The dosa was hard, not crispy as it should be. It wasn t bad, but the texture could definitely be improved. - **Gobi Manchurian**: A solid 4.5/5. It had good flavor, but there was a slightly sour taste that I couldn t quite place. Still enjoyable overall. - **Schezwan Veg Fried Rice**: Almost perfect at 4.8/5. It had a great kick to it, though it could have used a bit more veggies to balance the flavors. - **Chocolate Dosa**: Unfortunately, this was a big disappointment. I d give it a 0/5. The dosa was hard again, and the chocolate tasted burnt. There wasn t enough chocolate to balance it out either. Despite the ups and downs with the food, the service was excellent. The staff, particularly a very friendly woman, made the dining experience pleasant. I m writing this detailed review in hopes the restaurant can improve on these points and offer an even better experience.

I definitely recommend this restaurant, especially for their amazing Kerala curry. It s super creamy and has the perfect mix of spices just the right amount of heat. The food was fresh, and the service was great too. If you re looking for a tasty meal, this place won t disappoint!

One of the most beautiful South Indian food in canada.I would highly recommend.my rating 10/10.Even if you are coming from Ontario or USA u will be thrilled

The best South Indian cuisine , Kerala delicacies and sea food, superb hosts and amazing service. Fish curries and Kerala Parathas were excellent. Dry Beef fry was the best to beat the heat of summer.

The food excellent and the service very friendly. We were traveling through and very pleasantly surprised to find such good food in this small town. Ripan was very attentive.

We reserved dinner for 9. 3 were new to Indian food. The staff were fabulous describing ingredients for the no dairy, no wheat eaters. Everyone was served in a timely manner and all were impressed. Flavours and spicing were excellent. We found the prices very good with a very wide selection of dishes. The premises was very clean. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Amazing food, full of flavor. Will be back for sure! Highly recommend...

Everything is amazing

First time here. So many dishes to choose from on the menu. The meal did not disappoint. Best butter chicken in Lethbridge! Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten free options.

Fabulous experience here, mainly because of amazing, warm service by Manpreet today.

This is awesome restaurant. The food is really delicious and the customer service is excellent . All over everything is perfect and I highly recommend to visit this restaurant.

Best service ever. Everytime i come here got served by manpreet and she is an amazing person. She always have smile on her face and other staff is nice as well. Food is yummy too.

Orders: paper masala dosa, kadai chicken and beef vindalu. Manpreet the server explained to us the spice levels very well. She told us the beef was Indian spicy hot but we went ahead anyways and it was alright actually, we can handle that heat. I haven t been to a South Indian restaurant before, we usually go to the normal Indian restaurants but not specifically south so the menu here was new to us. My first time to try dosa because we saw it being served on another table and we got curious, it was delicious. Manpreet is fast and efficient and explained to us the difference of north and south Indian cuisine. Overall experience is good. Will definetely recommend, too bad we are just visiting Lethbridge or else we would be coming back.

Best Indian restaurant in Lethbridge. Great South Indian food. During my visit, I had the pleasure of being served by Manpreet Kaur, whose hospitality and knowledge of the menu greatly enhanced my dining experience. Her friendly demeanor and willingness to offer recommendations made me feel welcomed and valued as a guest.

Fresh south Indian food for who wait patiently. It take time to cook fresh and tasty food. 5 to Chef 5 food .

Fantastic!!! Best Indian food I ve had! Big portion sizes. Well priced. Highly recommend.

Good place to try authentic Kerala cuisine and excellent customer service. Reasonably priced and spacious restaurant.

I came yesterday food was awesome During my visit, I had the pleasure of being served by Manpreet Kaur, whose hospitality and knowledge of the menu greatly enhanced my dining experience. Food

My family and I ate lunch in Swad. Everything about the meal, service, and atmosphere is excellent. For those who wish to try South Indian cuisine, I heartily recommend this restaurant located in Lethbridge.

Absolute sleeper hit of a restaurant! Food is incredible, very quick to the table. Server was a delightful woman. Definitely check this place out if you look Indian. For my white bois out there, go for spicy, dont be a coward!!! XD

Good food & good service

We had a vegetarian dosa we tried all and all are delicious . Also staff were supportive and helpful . I try dosa at so many places but i can say this is a authentic dosa you can have from south india. I love all dosa. I suggest all indians to must go to eat dosa . Vegetarian options: All good

I liked the food of this place but atmosphere is dull.

First time trying South Indian cuisine. Was super tasty, will be back here again..

Delicious food, first time here, will share with friends. Will come again and explore the deep menu

Today we visit at this place,This place is good only for South Indian food not for the Punjabi food,Palak Paneer was not good and the chapati and Nan bread size were very small in size,So today I gave one star in both food quality and quantity,Otherwise the customer service was excellent

I love Indian food and this is an amazing place to get authentic Dosas . I cannot wait to return and try more of the items on their diverse menu. Very friendly establishments . highly suggest.

I had an amazing dining experience here with exceptional food quality. Its been a long time since Ive enjoyed such authentic South Indian food. The portions were very generous, making it great value for money. The ambience is fantastic, and the location is perfect for a stop whenever youre driving down south to the US or nearby areas. The staff is very friendly, adding to the overall positive experience. Highly recommended!

Excellent restaurant with phenomenal dosa and sambhar. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to have South Indian food.

It s really good .the food is really really good , I went there with my two year old son and he was crying ,they were OK with that. they were really nice with him ,The service was really amazing. Kid-friendliness: They re really kid friendly as a mother you go there you re gonna feel comfortable eating even ,if your kids are running around. It s a good place. I had so much fun in my son was having fun too.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this incredible South Indian restaurant, and I must say it was an absolute delight! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted warmly by the Service team. The Owner and Vishnu are the talented chefs behind the mouthwatering dishes. The food was simply exceptional, with flavors that transported me back to the streets of South India. Each dish was prepared with care and attention to detail, and the generous portions ensured I left feeling completely satisfied. What truly stood out was the impeccable service and the genuine effort put forth by the staff to ensure a memorable dining experience. The conversations with the owner and Vishnu added an extra layer of warmth to the meal, making it a truly unforgettable experience. I cannot recommend this place enough for anyone craving authentic South Indian cuisine served with a side of hospitality and charm. Wishing the entire team all the best for continued success and endurance in their endeavours.

The dining area is the best when compared to other indian based restaurants in lethbridge. The food was extremely good and well served, and the first thing I would recommend to try is the dosa. Plenty of parking is also available

Some of the best flavours weve had in Canada. Unique and delicious food. Our waiter Manprit had a very positive energy and was very good in helping us with our food selection. Would highly recommend. Vegetarian options: Amazing for vegetarians as there is a vast selection.

My and my four friends visited last week here and had an awesome experience. Trust me this is the best Indian/South Indian restaurant i had visited since i have been in Canada. Their food is truly so authentic in taste that it doesnt feels like you are sitting in Canada. It actually feels like you are in India and having authentic South Indian food. Sambhar and Chutney were too good. They have so many variety of vegetarian and non vegetarian dosa and each and every dosa is purely crafted with authenticity and fusion. Their female server has a good knowledge of the menu, suggests you good items and was very friendly and courteous. The menu is pocket friendly. Even their main course is so finger licking good. We tried their - Vada Sambhar. Spinach masala dosa. Paneer keema dosa. Egg and cheese masala dosa. Chilly Chicken. Nadan goat curry. Kerala Porotta. Each and every item were too good. Special thanks to their Chef who made our day. Will definitely visit this restaurant again whenever we will visit in Lethbridge next time and may be every time.

Had a fabulous dinner at Swad! We got the Spring rolls, paneer pakora, mango lassi, butter chicken dosa and paneer keema dosa. The staff there were friendly and super kind! My husband can t do much spice, and his dosa was a little more spicy than he could handle. They brought him raita and made sure he was ok! We were so full! The dosa s are so filling!!! We enjoyed everything we had and we can t wait to go back again. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options! Wanted everything on the menu! Parking: Lots of parking available!

Very yummy dosa and mango lassi

Yum yum and yum!

The staff were really friendly. Hats off to Neha for her attention to detail while taking the order. The chef always comes out to the table and chat with us. He makes sure the kids are happy too with the food. My kids love the dosa and shake. I love their hot and sour chicken soup. I love mango fish curry, prawn masala. Actually I love all their fish recipes.

Best Kerala Restaurant in Lethbridge. Authentic Kerala taste, loved their Chicken 555 Biriyani and Kothu Porotta.

Swad was a great experience! The food was really delicious. The service was exceptional! Our server Neha was super wonderful! Highly recommend.

Great food and wonderful service! I will definitely be returning!

Best Dosa in Townnnn

I was not sure to go at first but just got first order yesterday, amazing food, extremely delicious, seems they were focused on details to food, 5 star for lady staff dont know name but super service, from today on this will be my only restaurant in Lethbridge.

The food here is absolutely delicious. Highly recommend trying 555 chicken biriyani.

Great Food

Ive been searching for the taste of Kerala-style chilli chicken in Canada for so long, and I finally found it at Swad! It brought back all the memories of home, and I couldnt be happier. It cant be expressed in words how happy it made me. Thank you kindly.

We came here with our whole family today, and the food was absolutely delicious! Super authentic South Indian taste, just like back home. The owners are also very welcoming and very genuine. It is evident that they truly want their customers to leave happy. Highly recommend!

Update: We were there today, amazing Biryani, it feels very authentic and fresh. The coconut chicken curry was so delicious, with perfectly marinated spices and rightly cooked chicken, it feels like home. I really loved the way they made the gravy in curries. The cuisines justified the authenticity of the dishes from Kerala. I strongly recommend this restaurant for Indian food enthusiasts . Nostalgic and I really Loved it.

Amazing food

Amazing dosas. Light, crispy, flavourful, and coming with large portions of aloo and sambar. Just wish it came with more of the chutneys! The service here is phenomenal too. They ll go the extra mile and make sure everything is correct and up to the highest quality.

I just had the opportunity to visit this restaurant and I m back and forth on a lot of aspects. I always love to support local, and new restaurants- ESPECIALLY Indian food because it is my absolute favourite. I typically go to mango tree but I wanted to try something new. When ordering I wanted the vindaloo but I know a lot of places cannot make it mild (totally fine - I get it!), so I asked if they could - she sighed and said yes so I was like great, super stoked. It took about 45-1hour to get our food - a table that came in after us, with 4 people (we were 2) received their food before ours and yes they had a lot more than us. Then I try my food, although the flavour was ON POINT - it was SO friggen spicy, like I was dying every bite, I couldn t eat it. She came by and asked how it was and said she knows it s spicy - like girl? I would have ordered a different dish if you would have just told me you can t make it mild? Then when paying it s not a % option, it s a $ amount that goes $10/$15/$20. I am not going to pay a $10 tip for a $30 meal?!?!?!?!? So I put in a new dollar amount and she looked a little miffed. Anyways - very good food, didnt get the best service and if you want mild, just know you probably will not get that request!

Authentic South Indian food a must-try for anyone who loves this cuisine.

Best south Indian Food in Town and also in Alberta. Will visit again Vegetarian options: Uttapam Food : 5/5 |

Worst samosas

Really good

Over the past few weeks, I have had the opportunity to try various dishes at SWAD, and I must comment the staff for their dedication and serving excellent South Indian recipes. I particularly enjoyed the weekend special pot rice; it was truly remarkable. The place is neat and clean, although I believe there is room for improvement with the following, 1. Vada could be improved. It was hard on both occasions when I tried. 2. Additionally, Focus on refilling water promptly for dine-in customers as well. Good Luck!!

Thank you for the extra meal!

One of the best regular chicken fried rice in town

One of the best indian restaurants in Lethbridge. They have new MENU now, every dish is served delicious. Must go place if you craving indian food in Lethbridge.

Best Indian food in Lethbridge! Every dish weve tried has been amazing.

This tiny restaurant in town never disappoints us. Whatever the meal you order, it comes as delicious as its owners. Service is exceptional. If u wanna a try a South Indian menu, this would be greatest option.

Great tasting food in Lethbridge, highly recommended

I recently dined at a local South Indian restaurant and had a fantastic experience. I tried their masala dosa, chicken biryani, and masala chai, and each dish was packed with authentic flavours. The masala dosa was perfectly crispy and filled with flavorful potato masala, while the chicken biryani was aromatic and cooked perfectly. The staff was attentive and ensured that my dining experience was enjoyable. I would highly recommend this local South Indian restaurant to anyone looking for delicious, authentic South Indian cuisine served in a clean and welcoming environment.

Honestly the best Indian food available in the town....got variety of menu and affordable as well....highly recommend

Exceptional taste, Quaity service & Ambience

Three of us thought we would try this new restaurant for a friend s lunch and it was very good and 90% gluten free! Hurray! Service was prompt and helpful. We ordered mango & shrimp curry medium hot with coconut rice and a dragon chicken with the Indian pancake - can t recall the proper name - which was very good and gf. Our friend ordered a different chicken dish mild and the chapatti. He enjoyed his as well. I want to go back and try some more dishes Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options. Dietary restrictions: Eating gf is not always easy but this place is 90% gf

Great customer service and food was very delicious. Highly recommended.

Swad is an amazing place I had the Malabar Goat curry the flavors were amazing and it was alot of food for your dollar I highly recommend this place.

Amazing Indian Food. Number one choice in Lethbridge

Food was awesome Authentic South Indian taste Food

Amazing food. Very authentic & delicious flavors! Very reasonably priced! Great service by Manpreet! And very friendly with kids! The chef was very hospitable and kind, came and checked on our table. We will be back very soon!

Every time I come here, I am blown away by the skills and level of care Sanal Das has for his food. This Owner and Chef has the best spices and flavours out of any Indian Restaurant in town. Or that I have EVER been to for that matter. The coconut rice is the BEST!! PERIOD. Toasted cashews and coconut paired perfectly with the rice, caramelized shallots and coconut. If you like spicy the dragon chicken and spicy fish curry is next level, and the butter chicken is always a great go-to for those who just aren t sure. But don t pass up the opportunity for a Dosa, and his house made chutneys! They always hit the spot with taste and satisfy the belly. SWAD hits the mark every time,if you get a chance to try amazing southern Indian, this is it. Vegetarian options: Copious amounts of vegetarian options on the menu, super helpful for those with more intolerance. Dietary restrictions: Great vegetarian options and the chef is willing to work with your diet. My partner has a dairy allergy and ordering was easy. Parking: Parking right out front, At least 20-30 spots for all size vehicles Kid-friendliness: Kids menu makes it easy to not order more than what s needed. Wheelchair accessibility: Front access, easy for those in need to get in and out with extra wide doors.

The coconut rice is like none you have ever had before absolute must, order 2:) Highly recommend the Kerala Porotta, any dosa, and asking for the chef s recommendations! Vegetarian options: Tons of vegetarian options!

Food was very oily. Stick to south Indian food

Not a long time ago I was talking to my friend that someone should open a South Indian cuisine restaurant in Lethbridge as there are none. And here they are SWAD restaurant. The food is authentic their Sambar is too good. We ordered dosa and biryani which was so authentic tasting and amazing quality. The server is so friendly and she made sure we got our food in time and hot enough to eat. Shoutout to the server Saranya, thank you for making sure the food got delivered soon and amazing service. definitely recommend trying if you like South Indian. We indulged it.

Their Masala dosa is best in the Lethbridge.

Food was awesome, good atmosphere, bathrooms are clean.

If you are in Lethbridge and craving for Indian delicacy, Swad is the answer. Try out their variety of dosas. The chapati/fulka is also too good.

Wonderfully courteous, attentive service. Very kind and patient at explaining unfamiliar dishes and providing recommendations. There are a number of Indian restaurants in Lethbridge but this one is unique in serving dishes from the Kerala province and this is reflected in their spice mixes and taste profile. A great addition to the Lethbridge dining scene and well worth a visit for something unique in the city.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at a South Indian restaurant called SWAD and I must say that it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I knew I was in for a treat. The restaurant exudes a warm and inviting ambiance, with its traditional decor and soft lighting. The seating arrangements were comfortable, allowing for an enjoyable dining experience. The cultural essence of South India was beautifully reflected in the surroundings, transporting me to the vibrant streets of Kerala. The menu offered an extensive range of South Indian dishes. Thank you so much Mr. Sanal for your initiative.

One the best Indian restaurant I have been, every dish was authentic and perfect! Me and my friends have an awesome experience.

Awesome!

First time tried a Dosa. Great food

This has become one of my favorite dining spots in Lethbridge. I come often for the Chicken Khorma, but each time I come I discover another amazing dish. Try the roast chicken. It s not what we traditionally call roast chicken in Canada, but it s so tasty! You need to come a few times to try the different dishes. There is so much to choose from. Never had a bad dish. And the staff are warm and welcoming.

Great for team meetings, birthday celebrations and friends hangout. Yummy meals from start to finish and I really enjoyed my chocolate ice-cream. We barely had any leftovers. I would bring my family here sometime soon!

Great food, enjoyed everything we ordered. 3 year old loved the cheese dosa!

Vegetarian options: Delicious food Food

I ordered through skip and didnt reazitjsy rice does not come with the butter chicken but they sent some with a little note! Not something you often see! Butter chicken is delish as well

An excellent Indian restaurant with real good South Indian food taste. Looks like family ran restaurant.

Really great service. Dosa s were fantastic. Chai was a proper cup of tea, very flavourful. Curry was excellent. Rice was perfect. 5/5 stars!

Fantastic food. A highlight for the food scene in Lethbridge.

I enjoyed a butter chicken dosa and my friend had a mysore masala dosa. both were very flavourful and had a nice level of spice (we both opted for medium). then we rounded out the meal with some desserts: payasam and kesari. the payasam was rich and delightfully sweet while the kesari had a nice texture and just a hint of sweetness. absolutely delicious! cant wait to explore more of the menu!

One of the best indian food I ever tried,their dosa is simply amazing,vegetable fried rice and chillie chicken was owsome, butter chicken was so so,garlic naan were tiny but fresh and tasty,mango Lassi was good too,coustmer service was excellent,highly recommended

We had the wonderful opportunity to dine in this restaurant. The biriyani, parottas and curries took us back to Kerala. Very authentic and tasty cuisine. Keep it up guys!

Excellent service. The food was average. But, the staff(Manpreet) was super nice. We loved everything we got and would highly recommend Swad. All the best to you and your restaurant. We will be back.

Very, very delicious food, super friendly staff. I would definitely recommend this spot to friends for authentic South Indian food. The dosa was amazing.

Swad is amazing and Id highly recommend! We have never had South Indian food before and the staff was super helpful in guiding our decision of what to order, and how to eat it properly!! Perfect option for my partner and I because he is vegetarian and I am gluten free...there are tons of options for both. We will be going back for sure!

Excellent food with authentic Kerala dishes. Hard to find and a rare treat in a small city.

First time going here and it was Very delicious! I got the paneer Dosa with mild spice. (Think Hot Salsa from the grocery store level of spicy but I am also very White Southern AB so take that how you will haha). Very friendly staff, nice and clean. Great price point! Vegetarian options: Lots of awesome vegetarian options, and they also say their menu is 90% gluten free

Pros- Food & quantity was good. Cons-service was really slow and the atmosphere was decent could be better. Vegetarian options: They have many vegetarian options to choose from Parking: Plenty parking just in front of restaurant

Gave this place a try last week with a friend. We both had never been. The service right off the bat was great. We both went with the safe choice of butter chicken. And holy cow, it was delicious. So good in fact that we are back again today. Would highly recommend anyone who enjoys Indian food to get in here. Theyre killing it Vegetarian options: They have full vegetarian options. Parking: No issues parking Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly as the staff is great Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible

Great South Indian food...

Good collection of authentic South Indian food. Might increase the quantity of Sambhar:) . Food is very hygenically prepared. Ambience is great with good pictures of South India. Even the air gives you a feel of spices being used in the food. Servers have a pleasing smile on thier face while serving .

Food was great, service was excellent! We really enjoyed the experience. Will go there again the next time we are in the neighborhood. Recommended!

Had Indian food fot the second time. Swad was by far the better of the two. My server was very helpful explaining what each dish was and the portions were very generous. Would highly recomend you give this new guy on the block a try, ya wont be dissapointed!

Dropped in here for lunch when we visited Lethbridge. Great ambience, big dining hall with lots of seats. Friendly staff. And above all delicious food. The best biriyani we had from any of the Canadian Indian restaurants. The other food items were pretty tasty too.

Visited here for Dine in last Sunday.We ordered 2 dishes and the server informed food will be late for 30 minutes. We were ok as the restaurant seemed very busy because of long weekend. Then we noticed only one server was serving around 10 tables at once. She was too busy to at least bring us a cup of water. After 1 and half hour the food came to the table but not the cutlery. I had to go to the server for the cutlery waiting for her to bring them. She said oh I forgot. Agree that it was a busy day, but for a long weekend management should assign enough staff at least for serving. They got many customers but sadly they dont know how to keep them in their business.

The ideal spot to try Indian foods, especially if you miss your home-cooked meals, I generally go with my friends on weekends to enjoy our favourite Kerala specialties, porotta and beef curry. They offer the majority of Indian foods with excellent customer service, and their team is quite pleasant and friendly.

Thank u so much team swad for treeting us as your family.We got the real taste of Kerala . Kid-friendliness: You treet our children as your children.

It was so great experience. We love it so much Vegetarian options: Nothing to say so good Food : 5/5 |

Went again! And I will go 100x more. Appreciate the service! Appreciate the food! Appreciate the atmosphere! Closest to authentic SOUTH indian food you will find! The will accommodate any diet restrictions you may have, if they can! A great experience for someone wanting to try something new.

It was really good experience . We cant say that we stay in aborad and eating our indian food

Great food and will come back again! :)

Nice food

It was very pleasant, the food was good, people excellent and reasonable. Parking: Lots Food : 5/5 |

Wherever you re eating lunch in Lethbridge today just pay your bill and head over here. It will be worth it. Even if you re full. Southern Indian food at its finest. Vegetarian options: Mutter paneer Medium spice

Overall they did a great job. I like curries on the creamier side and they did that well. A bit oily, but it was well done. No traditional Naan, but they do have a large dosa menu. The Chicken Khorma (their spelling) was very tasty and wed order that again.

Very good food and service.

If you are looking for authentic Indian food, this is the place to go. This restaurant is run by a family and they are very sincere about delivering the best flavours and customer service. Highly recommended.

Great find! Amazing chicken kothu and halal too. Will be back for sure!

So you make an order, You re in a motel, there is no cutlery in your room, they send you an order and there s no cutlery to eat it with? hmmmmm, so how do you really rate that .fail!

Delicious delicious delicious! Will be back soon! Food

Very Tasty foods.

Can get the real taste of South Indian dosa&vada soo good

We had the pleasure of celebrating our friend Wendy s birthday yesterday at Swad. We re so happy that everyone that could make it out and thank you so much for surprising us and joining Ian! Swad is a new south Indian restaurant in Lethbridge, Alberta, and I cant express how impressed I am. From the moment I walked in, the warm ambiance set the stage for an incredible culinary experience. The passion of the chef shines through in every dish, making it, in my opinion, the best Indian food in town. The diverse and unique flavors were a delightful surprise, with the dosa and mango shrimp curry standing out as absolute highlights. The pakora was a taste sensation, and their distinct take on bread added an extra layer of deliciousness. What truly set this place apart was the impeccable service and the ability to cater to a large group effortlessly. We celebrated a birthday party, and everyone left with smiles and satisfied taste buds a testament to the restaurants commitment to excellence. As if the culinary journey wasnt enough, the proximity to an escape room made it a perfect Saturday outing. To top it off, the masala chai was a comforting treat, especially on a cold winter day. Kudos to the team at Swad for creating such a unique and enjoyable dining experience. Im already looking forward to my next visit a true gem in Lethbridge!
