Ethnic restaurants abound in Miami, and while the focus is obviously on Latin cuisine, there are a few Indian restaurants worth checking out. One such is Swagat Indian Kitchen, whose menu has traditional and Indian street food. It’s the go-to spot for the best Indian food in Miami.
Indian Street Food
As we all know vegetarian Indian food is a staple for every Indian restaurant. So vegetarians have no fear — Swagat has got you covered, with Indian dishes such as pav bhaji (thick, mixed veggie curry, served with roti-style bread).
A unique appetizer I had was pani puri (hollow potato puffs with chickpeas). Directions: Spoon in some of the sweet, spicy mint sauce, and eat in one bite. And don’t be afraid to use your hands, it’s customary in India.
Also, try the vada pav (deep-fried golden potato dumpling inside a soft bread bun). It’s served with coconut garlic chutney and green chili.
Their authentic vegetarian meatballs in curry was worth ordering, too.
Non-Vegan/Non-Vegetarian Highlights
For non-vegans/non-vegetarians like myself who crave Indian food, order the shrimp korma, bathed in a fragrant coconut curry sauce. And of course, don’t forget the classic tandoori chicken.
The Wind-Down
The food came out SUPER fast—in under 10 minutes, and taste was NOT sacrificed for speed.
Swagat Indian Kitchen did not disappoint. If you’re looking for authentic Indian food in Miami, I highly recommend checking this place out.
