Some of the best Pakistani or Indian food you will find anywhere in Chicago. The atmosphere has a lot to be desired and for the most part this 24 hour restaurant is frequented by cab drivers. If you are looking for great take out though you will not be dissappointed by the Biryani. The servings are very large and the prices just cant be beat. Great food but just none of the frills you pay for at some of the fancier pakistani or indian restaurants in Chicago.

Could not recommend this place more! The Indian-Latin spice combination was excellent and unique. It might be a little strong for those who don't like heat, but for me it was perfect. I really enjoyed the scallop appetizer which was perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. The steak was the perfect temperature, tender and well spiced and the crab konkani really brought together the best of Latin and Indian spice. Our server was also very attentive and went out of her way to make my birthday special. Throughout the night, the service was great and anticipated our needs without being intrusive. At the end of the night without prompting (she checked our ids for the spiced white sangria) she brought us a mango torte with birthday wishes written in chocolate in an elegant script. The care that went into the food, the atmosphere and the service really impressed me and I hope to return soon.
Pros: Spice, ambiance, service
Cons: a bit pricy

Who knew that Samosas and interesting flavorful Martinis could be combined. Congratulations to Angela Lee for another home run!!! I've lived in Chicago for 25 years and am Indian.......so I enjoy the cuisine of Devon Avenue as much as the next, but when you dine on Randolph Street, you expect a much different scene, and a different flavor......and that's what you get at Veerasway. She's done a great job with creating comtemporary Indian cuisine with style. The dishes have interesting flavors, and great presentation. It seems like the staff has been well chosen, and well trained......great service! We enjoyed the more traditional Vegetable Samosas, Spring Mutter Paneer, but also thought the creativity of the Okra Chaat Fry, and Coconut Scallops were a must try! We also enjoyed the cocktails! Try the Mumtaz Maharita, and the Bollywood Rehab.......very tasty! We sat at a community table and had a great time. Looking forward to going back, and trying some more!

Healing through food? You must be joking. Swati is anything But healthy- There food is soaked in cream and oil and more than half the stuff on their menu is fried, not baked. Not to mention, they have a very sparse selection. I had the bhel puri and masala dosa. The bhel tasted like it was six months old-- It was stale!! The dosa aloo was completely cold and the sambhar was not traditional at all. If you are expecting very low quality food for a decent price, Swati is your place. If you want to try some good quality food, try the Viceroy of India down the street.

I come here all the time with large groups to have massive amounts of very tasty vegetarian cuisine. I like to order the Royal Mysore Thali and a Dosa Thali to share with every 4 people or so.
It is BYOB and the staff is very accomodating with large parties.
Pros: Excellent food, great value, great for large groups.
Cons: Perhaps not the most romantic or atmospheric restaurant

This place is fantastic. We've been going regularly since moving into the neighborhood a couple of years ago, and i am always happy with the food, the service, and the atmosphere. Used to go mostly for dinner (samosa appetizer!! lamb burger!!!), but have been going in for weekend brunch, and we think this is where it's really at. The Daal & Eggs dish is a perfect savory breakfast; satisfying and flavorful, but not too heavy, a sort of perfect comfort food without the greasy food hangover. Also recommended are the pancakes with chai syrup and a wonderful strawberry compote. Amazing. More vegetarian options available for breakfast/brunch than dinner.
The crowd is mixed; all sorts of people, some very local, some not. It's been a lot busier the last few times I've been in, so this bodes well for Treat; I guess the word is out!
