"Absolutely superb! Packed with full flavour—the Butter Chicken and 555 Style Starters were highlights, and the Daal Tadka and fluffy Saffron Rice were cooked to perfection. Hands down one of the best meals I've ordered recently. So good I'm going straight to Google to leave a review there, too!"
"The taste is amazing! I really enjoy the food here, especially the Dahi Puri hands down the best dish. It would be even better if the yogurt was served separately. The Chicken 555 was also delicious, and the portion sizes are generous. Overall, a great experience, and I’ll definitely be coming back!"

"Very disappointing experience at Swagat Spices! The sambar vada was rock hard, as if it had been microwaved for too long, and was almost impossible to chew or cut. The sambar was tasteless, and the chicken in the Chicken 65 biryani was poorly cooked. Extremely poor food quality and a complete waste of money. Would not recommend!"

"First Time visiting this restaurant. Really good food with flavourful tastes. The dishes were unlike I've ever had, definitely the best Indian restaurant in Melbourne.
I've visited many restaurants and this one beats every single one by far. Due to there being new owners and new management there are new and improved dishes. Being open for only 4 weeks is really impressive. The restaurant is extremely clean and the ambience is nice and calm with music playing in the background. I will definetly be visiting this place again and again. I would 100% recommend you to visit this place as well.
A few unheard of but amazing dishes that I would recommend would be the Parda Biryani, 4 Seasons Viral Chicken, The Chef's Specials, Haleem and of course biryani. Alongside the amazing food the Saudi champagne ( non - alcoholic ) drink was refreshing. The portions are also decent sized, enough to fill you up. The food is fresh and tastes like India.
MUST VISIT."
"My partner is Hyderabadi so we were happy to finally discover proper Hyderabadi food after a decade of living in Australia! We highly recommend the Malai Paya and Chicken 65 Wrap but everything we had was good. My partner's face lit up when we had dinner at their restaurant and we ordered again from Doordash the following day. Both times were superb! We also met the chef who was lovely and also from Hyderabad. We are not from Melbourne but we will definitely keep coming back whenever we are in town."

"The food was delicious! The momos were soooo good and juicy. 😍 However, the Chicken Chilli had so much red colouring that it wouldn't come off my hands even after washing them multiple times, and the stains were still there the next day. Other than that, I'd happily order other items from here again! It would be great if the restaurant could look into the excessive colouring, though."
"Ordered the bhutuwa and was disappointed the dish came swimming in oil, almost like a separate pool of grease sitting on top rather than a light coating. For the price, I'd expect better quality control."

"What an awesome place! Very good value for money and arrived quickly. The Chicken Momos were delicious. We loved the sauce that came with them.
The only thing I would nitpick is that the noodles (Chicken Keema Noodles) were a bit too overcooked, would be nice if they had some chew to them. They were spicy and flavourful. Thank you for such a lovely meal! We will be ordering again :)"

"value for money . Samosa was not that good. I suggest to add some Chaats and savory in the menue"
"Packaging was fancy and very neat for gifting. The jalebi was too hard to bite into. It wasn't fresh, as Indian sweets are supposed to be fresh for the best taste and crisp.
Also, portion should be available in less than 1kg too.

"The food is so good I loved it a lot and I order Lamb Biryani and when I tell you that's food is so tasty Thankyou for the chefffffffffff"
"Really disappointed with this biryani. The masala was way overpowering — completely drowned out any actual flavor of the rice or meat, just an overwhelming punch of spice with no balance. The meat itself was the bigger issue though — it had an off, stale smell that put me off eating more than a few bites. Definitely didn't taste fresh.
On top of that, this didn't look anything like a proper dum biryani. No visible layering, no signature aroma or texture you'd expect from something actually cooked on dum — just looked like regular masala rice mixed with meat. For the price, I expected far better quality and authenticity. Won't be ordering again."
