I've dined three times at Swad recently and really love their food. I've craved a good Indian…read moretakeout option in the East Bay for some time, but Swad is a good restaurant, period. Tucked away in a plaza on Route 103 in Riverside, Swad has a nice decor and every time I visit there are at least a few tables full. Swad features a Himalayan dumpling called a Momo that is pretty incredible - lovely spices and so much fun to eat. There is a vegetarian Momo in addition to one with lamb. The butter chicken is apparently well loved and I tried it twice - once takeout, and once in the restaurant; my eleven year old told me it is her favorite chicken dish ever, FWIW. I also tried the chicken Madras and a few of the apps. Everything was very well made. Really thrilled that Swad is in Riverside!

They sent out a special rice pudding dish for us at the end & we felt like celebrities. Also, what a treat to meet Raj, the owner! Wishing them the best of success for the future. Riverside is lucky to have them.

The flavors were good but the chicken and the paneer were a little chewy. Same with the naan - the texture wasn't quite right.

It was a quick turnaround time once we ordered and pickup was smooth.

Simha Indian Kitchen & Bar is a new restaurant in downtown Providence. It is where the Barnaby's…read moreused to be located, so it retains some of the previous set-up. The restaurant is open and has an upscale Indian vibe. It was a nice spot for a date night The menu has a lot of offerings, even some fusion dishes that sounded really interesting. They also had a specials menu. The drinks list was extensive; their cocktails are creative, including their mocktails too. I tried the lychee martini which was good and not sweet which I enjoyed--would have liked a little more lychee flavor though. My husband got one of the mocktails which was refreshing. We tried a bunch of appetizers (wings, Indian fries, and kebab) as well as the baingan bharta which is a delicious eggplant dish. It came with rice. Spice level was good. Next time we want to try more entrees. The staff was very friendly and attentive. They checked in on us often and made sure our water glasses were always filled. Prices are reasonable. We definitely plan to return to try more items!

You can sit inside at the bar, they have booths, standard tables, as well as outdoor seating. It's a nice place without being ostentatious. The staff are courteous. We always get the same things when we go: -Mirchi margarita (spicy and delicious!) -Steamed mussels appetizer -Garlic naan (you HAVE to order this when you get the mussels. Do NOT let that broth go to waste!) -Lamb tikka masala This is usually enough to satisfy 2 adults. This last time, we had a third person and added on an extra order of garlic naan and an order of the lamb chop kabob entree. Extremely tender and would order again for a special occasion ($30 entree)

I did go at 3pm and I was the only person in there, so I'm sure that had some effect on the quality of food.
