Background

About Swad - The Indian Restaurant

The Story

Swad is an Indian restaurant in El Parc i la Llacuna del Poblenou, in the Sant Martí district. Google describes it as an easygoing place built around a menu of Indian standards with vegetarian options, and it's set up for the everyday: lunch and dinner, drinks, and a room that takes groups and families.

The Cuisine

The kitchen sticks to Indian standards, the kind of menu that usually spans curries, tandoor-cooked dishes, breads and rice, with plenty of room for spice. Vegetarians are well looked after here, with a dedicated set of vegetarian options alongside the meat dishes.

The Team

The format is straightforward sit-down service with takeout available if you'd rather eat at home. The focus is on a familiar, broad Indian menu rather than a single specialism.
