About this restaurant

This small and cosy Indian on Lordship Lane is a great local curry house in East Dulwich that is perfect for everything from last-minute mid-week meals to parties and fun family nights out. Swadesh is loved by locals for their interesting and diverse Indian menu which steers clear from the regular curry house fare, and the glass-fronted dining room is smart and clean with wooden floors, leather banquettes and a cheery ambience. Popular items from the Swadesh menu include the Zafrani fish tikka roasted with saffron and fresh herbs; the smoked lamb dumplings with Lucknawi spices; and the aloo bora, deep-fried mashed potato stuffed with mint and ginger.

Had a fantastic night at the swadesh! The food was great and big portions as well. We where well full after the main course so no chance of fitting a desert in! With the 50% off all food this deal was great value for money.

We have dined at Swadesh in East Dulwich a number of times and as we have experienced previously, the food was very good indeed. On a Tuesday night, pouring with rain, it was no surprise that the restaurant was quiet. However, the welcome was so friendly and warm, it bothered us not at all. All dishes were great but the Xacuti Chicken was particularly fine. If it maintains this quality of food and service at such a reasonable price, we will keep coming back again and again.
