About this spot
Sawad delivers authentic North Indian flavors on the bustling Sainte-Catherine street without the tourist traps you expect in Brussels. Order the butter chicken or lamb rogan josh, but be prepared to share a platter of naan and rice as portions are generous. The spice levels are customizable, allowing you to navigate the heat curve safely before your palate adjusts.
💡 Tips before you go
- Ask for 'medium' spice first; the kitchen will adjust the dish if it's too hot for you.
- Order naan bread fresh from the tandoor and tear it directly over your curry to soak up the sauce.
- Bring cash or a card with a PIN, as some small tables in this busy neighborhood may not accept contactless payments.
