Amazing food! Traveling west and stopped here and food was delicious. The Naan bread was fresh and so good. My lamb dish was so yummy!

Love this place! My kids and I always try to stop on our road trips and get something yummy. Chole bhatura and goat biryani are our favorites so far. read more

Stumbled upon this gem oddly located inside a truck stop while on a road trip. The place is huge, you can tell they are new-ish, the owners were very warm and welcoming, we placed our order and took our seat, not expecting much. We got their Daal tadka, chicken tikka masala with rice and garlic naan. Finished our meal with Kheer. We were pleasantly surprised by the food, very simple, hearty and delicious flavors. Prices are reasonable considering the quantity of the food. Don't let its unassuming exterior fool you; the food is absolutely delectable. Whether you're a traveler passing through or just a local looking for an Indian meal, this place is a must-visit. It's a hidden gem that deserves a wider recognition for its outstanding food and service. I truly hope more people find this place and love their food as much as we did! 10/10 read more

The Chicken Tikka Masala was amazing! It was incredible to find such great Indian food at a truck stop!

Fantastic food and friendly service :-) portions are quite generous. I will definitely add this to my semi regular stops..

Call ahead sign in door said closed today due to staff shortage. Was really looking forward for Indian food.

Fantastic service and food. Steady stream of people coming in. Mainly truckers. Good price. Good choice.

An oasis among a desert. Came in after a long day driving craving some good food and they delivered. The vegetarian options were plentiful and the meat options were great. Got a classic Butter Chicken with Garlic Naan and my husband ordered a Goat Biryani. The food was incredible. Service was solid, and there were plenty of seats. I loved all the fun music videos on play. Highly recommend! read more

The food is delicious. For being in the middle of nowhere but the choices of mediocre Italian and Mexican food, this is a change from our norm. read more

Swaad Stop - My favorite game aside from Kirby 64 - Indian Near Me - Holbrook, Arizona

A Gem in middle of nowhere! Must try Indian mix parantha with makhan and cha! A full delight! read more

Great stop for anyone that likes Indian food. It is not fast food but you do order at the counter and then get served at your table. Food was better than most big city Indian restaurants. Just settle in with the Punjabi truck drivers and enjoy! read more

I wanted to explore the truck stop next to the freeway outside of Holbrook. I was glad to find such a restaurant in my area because I used to go to the buffet all of the time some years ago. This is some of my favorite kind of food. That said, I think that the prices are too high. I think that they must appeal to the truckers who spend more money while on the road than some. I remember having naan just given to me with the meal. The quality of the food was good. What was bad was that I found the experience disorientating. There were two menus, one with the vegetarian options and one without. Also I really want to see prices next to all items on the menu. Are they the breakfast/lunch and dinner menus? There is a scan code taped to some surfaces. This brings up the Google business listing. I tried looking on the menu on the cell phone that would be the text menu in Google and I could not find vegetarian items, although they have 16 dishes at Swaad Stop for me. I look at the images for the menu in Google and they show pics of the paper menu with no prices for the main dishes. But I did find the vegetarian items in there so better than nothing. I find Swaad Stop in Google Maps on my PC and I can't see any menu in there. I can't even find a phone number or website. If you put in prices and fix the menu in the Google page then I will give you five stars. I'll even do this for free for you if you want. Jason read more

AMAZING customer service!! Everyone one so friendly and food amazing. Was my first time trying mango lassi and WOW!!! So good!!!!! Highly recommend stopping here!!! read more

Delicious food good service. Excellent food and service! . Their servers really care about your experience as well.

Who would have thought one could find an Indian spot in the middle of nowhere. We wanted to get some chai and snacks. We ended up eating a full meal. Excellent food, robust flavors. read more

Very tasty and fresh food . The customer service is amazing. I try mostly tandoori roti with my order . So always I like all the food .

Food is very bright and colorful. Oh and by the way very flavorful. Service is always great. The green sauce that come with the somosa is is the best. I really enjoy eating at the Swaad read more

The food was very good and the portions were very generous had a taste of great international food !

A very clean location and service was great. However, I would not call this authentic Indian food. The biryani had no flavor, the rice and chicken tasteless. The butter chicken was beyond mild, too sweet and lacking any intense taste. Naan and daal were good, however. For the price, food should have been better. Okay for a one-time stop, but likely won't visit here again. read more

Amazing food. Authentic Punjabi food in a truck stop?!! Really great stuff. We had butter chicken, baijan bharta and Chana masala, and all three were superb. And they have gulab jamum to go! This place is probably the best Indian dhaba between Albuquerque and Los Angeles. read more

Swaad Stop - Butter chicken -- -- Chana masala - Indian Near Me - Holbrook, Arizona

Don't order extra naan it comes as a combo with a big serving of rice & naan. I order 6 extra naan without knowing it already comes with some but food was amazing 10/10 MUST HAVE!!!!!!!!!! Compliments to the chef !!! read more

Sorry to add yet another 5-star review, but here goes. On our trip from CA to TX for the eclipse, we totally stumbled into Swaad Stop via the "breakfast near me" option on a search engine. Who can resist Indian food for breakfast? Not I! What a fascinating place! Clearly set up to serve a specific clientele (Indian truckers), the mostly-non-English speaking staff was very helpful and personable. I won't go in to details about the food other than it was very, VERY good and the prices were great. Tons of options for vegetarians. What a gem in the middle of the desert! read more

Amazing food, great service, and I enjoyed listening to the music while waiting for my food. I ordered the butter chicken with garlic naan. they asked what level of heat I wanted. I requested mild since I do have heartburn sometimes and I'm traveling. they made it just the perfect level of spice and the flavors were amazing. I've been to many Punjabi restaurants, most of them in New Zealand. This took me back there. Also, butter chicken is a good dish to get if you're trying Indian food for the first time, which was the case for my best friend, who was with me. I highly recommend stopping here for a meal. Who knew this gem was sitting on this lonely highway? read more

We loved the food we had at Swaad Stop. The Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka Madala were great. Also, the Garlic Naan was really good, and you get a lot for $2.50. The entrance is not obvious but it is part of the Hopi Travel Plaza just east of Holbrook. read more

Excellent food! It was one of the best food I ever tasted! Not only that the owner Jessi Singh was very friendly. My Wife is from Bangladesh and me from India and we got one of the best hospitality by Mr. Singh. I had ordered a butter chicken and goat curry. He also gave use a mango lassi and salad, like how they serve the guest in the house! And despite a our numerous requests he did not charge for salad and mango lassi! read more

Best Indian food I have eaten in years and at an amazingly low price. The Lamb curry, Malai kofta and palak paneer were all excellent.

The food is absolutely delicious!!! And polite service as well!! I would highly recommend stopping in for a taste!!

Absolutely amazing find on the drive down I-40/Rt66. The food was great. Everything we had was fresh and came out tasting great. Can't recommend a better place to stop on the way. A true hidden gem. read more

We finally tried this restaurant, and we're so glad we did. My parents had told us how good it was before but I never thought it would be so amazingly good! I had the lamb curry and the spice was perfect and the basmati rice along with the garlic Naan was such a good combination. My dad tried the chili chicken (he ordered it mild). I'm getting that next time because my daughter and I ate half his plate! It was so yummy and had a tomato sweetness. It was cooked to perfection. My husband got the lamb biryani and it was fresh with a great aroma and taste. My brother had the buttered chicken and he shared a little and that was so good too! The flavor of every single thing was so good. My mom had already eaten so she had the rice pudding dessert. I had a taste of that and it was good. I also had the Chai tea and was so grateful that it wasn't already sweetened. It was perfect without any sugar! We'll be back again to try other options and to definitely get that chili chicken! Thanks again!! read more

Hidden gem. Moved to Arizona from New York City and have not had Punjabi cuisine of this caliber since arriving in the southwest. Recommend the Goat Curry, Malai Kofta, and any of the Biryani rice dishes. 10/10 read more
