One Kitchen, Three Culinary Traditions
On Greenmount Avenue in Baltimore's Waverly neighborhood, Swadi brings Indian, Nepalese, and American cooking together under one roof — built on homemade masala and a genuine love of feeding people.
SWADI Restaurant | Our Story
A Home in Waverly
Swadi put down roots on Greenmount Avenue in Waverly — a community-minded neighborhood that felt like the right fit. The name Swadi reflects that spirit: where culinary cultures blend and new flavors are born.
The Masala Is Made Here
Every curry, tikka masala, korma, and karahi starts with spice blends made in-house — no shortcuts, no premixed pastes. That homemade masala is what gives the Chicken Tikka Masala its depth and the Daal Makhani its quiet, complex warmth.
The Pizza That Started Conversations
The Chicken Tikka Pizza — tandoori chicken, roasted peppers, onions, and mozzarella on a crispy crust — isn't a gimmick. It's what happens when two great culinary traditions genuinely respect each other.
The Samosa Has a Following
Swadi's vegetable samosas are golden, crispy, and among the largest in the city — served with tamarind chutney and green cilantro sauce. Word of mouth like that is how Swadi earned a spot among Baltimore's Top 3 Restaurants of 2025.
Everyone Eats Well Here
From chicken momos with golden dipping sauce to vegan-adaptable curries made with coconut milk on request, Swadi's table is open to everyone — halal diners, vegetarians, families, and first-timers alike.
