With a name like Swagatam, it has to be good. So let's get swaggy!…read more If I'm being honest, we have not become converts of Spanish food. (Please, no hate! We're not big into seafood.) However, we have enjoyed some great pastries here-churros y chocolaté at CHOCOLATERÍA 1902 and napolitanas at La Malorquina in Madrid. After all that, we needed something spicy. The winner of the best food we've eaten in Spain so far is Swagatam! This little gem is tucked a ten-minute walk from La Perdrera and two doors down from our Airbnb. Swagatam really brought the spice! As you can see from the picture our meal came with four house-made sauces and two house-made seasoned salts. My wife fearing over-spicing, went with mild chicken curry. I ordered medium chicken curry and my daughter medium chicken tikka masala. All appropriately spicy. I was happy to kick mine up with sauce number 4. We really enjoyed our meal. Not only was the food delicious, the owner, Lal, has been the kindest person we met in Spain and Portugal so far. To be fair, he could top the nice list in any country. He's just a positive, happy dude with a great outlook and attitude. He is a friend to all. The service was great and the prices reasonable too. Great quality and presentation. He brought my wife and I a shot of limoncello (we had to politely turn down since we don't drink) and a mango lassi for our daughter when we had finished our meal. Lal is a gracious host, for sure. We recommend a meal at Swagatam the next time you are at the northwest end of the Passeig de Gràcia.

Wanted to try some Indian food in Barcelona and glad we came across this place…read more Very lovely aesthetic on the inside and they even Serve the food in those metal plates which was nice. Portion size itself was fairly decent and I'm glad we ordered just the right amount of food for the group. The Chicken Dal (chicken dhansak I think they called it) was very unique! First time I've had a dish that was chicken and dal together and it was really nice. First time I've had a dish that was chicken and all together and it was really nice especially with the jeera rice! Brother ordered the Butter Chicken and it was very flavorful as well. Loved the Chicken Tikka too! Lamb Rogan Josh actually came quite salty! Like it was unbelievably saw me so we told the server and they were quick to replace it. Even got us an extra dessert to make up at the end. Pudina Paratha was also quite nice! Flaky and just the right amount of flavor in there. Got the Gulab Jamun For dessert and it was the perfect amount of sweetness. I usually feel they end up getting too sugary sweet but this was perfect! They brought us one on the house and now that we had two on the table one of them was notably different from the other. I think it was just that it was extremely hot! Like you actually had to blow on it and it would have burned your mouth if you didn't do that first. Overall very delicious!

Can I start off by saying I want to pack this place up and take it home with me. Coming from…read moreCalifornia I've had my good share of Indian food, but nothing beats the Indian food, like this place here. I was having a night in and decided to place an order for my friends and I for dinner and got some dishes. I don't know if it was because I was new to the app Glovo but a few dishes I wanted were part of a promotion and I ended up getting them half off. I placed the ordered and was told the establishment would handle the delivery. Within minutes I got a notification letting me know when the delivery would get there and exactly 40 minutes later it was. The chicken tikka masala was bright in hue and flavorful. It tasted so creamy and authentic. Not like "Americanized" Indian food. With that being said, the chicken was very moist, and the tomato sauce that covered it was so rich and delicious the extent of my vocabulary won't be able to describe its justice. The channa masala was also such a delight. I've never had this dish and I'm so glad I have nothing to compare it to. All I know is that the chick peas were soft, flavorful and not too oily. I feel as though I've been spoiled by this dish and when I get back to the states no other channa masala would compare. The naan bread here is denser and more flat than the ones I've had. I normally like it fluffy but this style made them a little chewier and I actually liked the texture a lot. It was great to dip in all the sauces. The chicken biryani was good as well. I loved the flavors, chunk of chicken, cashew and even the eggs. The mango lassi was definitely out of this world! So rich, creamy and they used really good yogurt! I actually saved some to enjoy later because I didn't want to finish it in one go. Overall the flavors and dishes were well made, well packaged and was perfect! If I get lucky to visit Barcelona again in the further this will be the first place I visit!

The palak paneer tasted as though the spinach was grown in the garden and then blended with herbs. So good. Smaller portions than the US. The garlic naan was also fresh baked, warm, and soft. The curry chicken was just perfect with the chicken tender and tandoori style within the sauce. All in all it was a great find near my place in the Gracia neighborhood. And love the Mango Lassi - see pretty pic below.
