I've been wanting to eat Indian food since my recovery from Dengue. Good thing that Swagat is easy to find especially with the help of Google maps.
It was not my first time to eat Indian food but for it's price, Swagat offers an authentic and good selection from mutton to chicken biryani to cheese naan.
Aside from the food, the restroom is clean and there's a good ventilation inside the restaurant.
Additionally, their staff are friendly and polite. Kudos!
Did not disappoint. I had the Sangam Biryani cause i was craving Biryani today. Last time i ate at Swagat was close to 10 years ago when they were still on Rada. I fell in love with Indian food then, and Swagat continues to serve good indian food. Imho
OVERALL: FOOD 4.5/5, SERVICES 4/5, PRICE 4/5, AMBIANCE 2/5
So far the best indian restaurant I’ve tried. Food tastes like a good authentic indian food. The biryani rice has the right texture and you will definitely savor the indian spices in their chicken curry.

One of our favorite indian restaurants in Makati. It’s affordable and the food that we tried are all delicious. Our favorite is the Rogan Josh. Definitely worth it.
Pros: large food portions, tasty biryani dishes
Cons: very slow service. I witnessed a Food Panda pickup guy venting his frustration as he was kept waiting for 20 minutes. Little did I know thats their average customer waiting time.
I’ve eaten in the restaurant and had it as a takeaway. Both times the food tasted decent. I would say the portion sizes are small. The garlic naan isn’t particularly great in the style it’s made. Not enough (any) butter or garlic. I liked both the chicken curry & the chicken tikka masala. The samosas are nice too.
Good Indian food at a good price.
This place is rather unassuming. It's a small restaurant that feels more like a local carinderia than a foreign restaurant. Then again, if you've been to India, you'd know that local restaurants do have have ambiance.
The food is quite good with very authentic Indian flavors. Service is a hit and miss. Sometimes they're attentive and serve with a happy smile and sometimes they don't really care. Also, the price is a little expensive. Not by much but just a tad bit.
Overall though it's a place I'd go to whenever I'm in the area.
Swagat is the first decent Indian restaurant I tried here in Manila. It was introduced to me by a couple of friends from Makati. Indian food usually has a steep price attached to it but not in Swagat. It is quite affordable and easy on the budget but of course, serving size is smaller than other Indian restaurants in the Metro. Taste-wise, Swagat hits the nail in the head as they use authentic spices in their dishes. It is quite apparent in their samosas, masalas and paneers and biryanis! One time, I brought my Indian colleague here for dinner and according to him, it tasted like home! Eating in Swagat is always a delight. I would have given them 5 stars if not for the hassle in parking space.
The samosas tasts great! Will definitely order this one again soon and i am very eager to try their other dishes. ❤️
Zomato Delivery was fast despite the rainy weather.
I was really missing indian food during my trip so i went to this place to try north indian dishes.
Its been many days and this place didnt disappoint me at all. I tried dal makhni, butter naan, strawberry shake , paneer masala and cold coffee.
Everything was perfect although i missed that spicy taste but still it was worth it.
Thank you swagat for giving me such a good indian time here.
