Swad has awesome Indian snacks from bhel puri to samosas! There is no doubt they are #1 in Austin for snacks. Dosas and idlis are also wonderfully prepared. However, their thali is really not good at all. We ended up ordering it once and couldn't even make out what dish was what-and we're INDIAN! The flavors in the thali vegetables were awful and we ordered a paneer dosa that came with potato and grated paneer (small amount) on it. It was a shame, but now we know only to order the snacks and not full-fledged meals.
Pros: vegetarian, fast service, awesome snacks!
Cons: thalis overrated, food sometimes greasy, sometimes bad seating
