We LOVE frequently dining at Sway. From the manager, Zach to the folks who greet us upon arrival, to the servers and those handing off our courses of food...all are so nice and friendly and helpful. Every dish we've sampled has been wonderfully tasty. Last night was a themed celebration of the Thai new year, with festive decorations and a special menu in line with the occasion. Thank you Sway folks for your hospitality and great presence.

We had a terrific anniversary dinner at Sway on April 8, 2025. The food was amazing, as usual, and the service was stellar. We should come here more often!

The food is excellent. The short rib Phanaeng, Son in Law, and calamari are without flaw. Although I did think it was a bit too much rice to eat in one sitting. We preferred the Thai iced tea over the Thai iced coffee. Sway is wonderful and I am excited to go back.

We had the crab salad, brussel sprouts, and panang curry. Everything was amazing. My favorite was the crab salad. I also had a key lime crush cocktail and it was like a ln adult version of a pina colada without the frozen part. Exactly what I wanted. Service was amazing. Ambiance was great. Perfect date night. Would go again!

One of my favorite Thai restaurants in Austin. The food is consistently great, I love the ambiance and decor, the only negative I had this time I went was I wish our server was more attentive. This is the first time I’ve had this issue here (so maybe they were new?). She didn’t ask me if I wanted another drink when I finished my first and I had to flag down another waiter to get a drink menu which I held open looking for her from just after our app plates were taken until about half way through our main which I didn’t love. My second drink didn’t come until we had finished eating at that point and I didn’t even really want it by then.

Thanks for the review, Shannon! I'm sorry your service lacked this time though. We're always looking to be better every day, and rely on feedback like this to see where we can tighten down. Thank You again, and we'll see you next time! Nick Cvercko - Assistant General Manager
