Customer Reviews

The human beings who work and serve here are amazing, kind, modest, humble, and an absolute joy to interact with. I have been eating here since August 2025. I drive 18-wheeler and travel back and forth across country several times a year. Each time I am able to stop here it's the highlight of my journey. I have had the Lamb Biryani on three trips, the Samosas on three trips, the Garlic Naan on two trips and the Lamb Curry on this trip. I have also sampled other menu items. The food is impeccable, seasoned perfectly, and absolutely delicious. The meat is tender, moist and packed with flavor. The sauces are exquisite. The Naan is fresh and so are the garlic and herbs. The price is so very affordable and reasonable. Treat yourself to a meal you will never forget at SWAADSTOP!

We stopped at Swad Stop Punjabi Dhaba on I-40 while visiting Petrified Forest National Park. It's a Punjabi restaurant located at a truck stop where many Punjabi truck drivers stop to eat, shower, and rest. The restaurant itself was very clean and well maintained. There are couple of more food stores like Burger King inside the truck stop. We ordered aloo gobhi, chicken tikka masala, chicken curry, goat curry, along with garlic naan and roti. The food was good overall--simple, comforting Punjabi-style cooking. Everything tasted fine and met expectations, especially after a long day of travel. A solid stop if you're on I-40 and craving Indian food.

This place is a gem! We were so happy to find an Indian restaurant on our way to the Petrified Forest. We enjoyed the garlic naan, samosas, for starters. I rate both high for freshness, flavor and temperature. My dish of Tikki Masala Paneer was the best I've ever had. My travelling companion and I both appreciated the spices and freshness. So delicious! This place rates higher, in my book, than our favorite Indian restaurant in our hometown in Michigan. I'm so glad we found this restaurant!

We were excited to see an Indian restaurant in Holbrook. Unexpected and delicious! We ordered samosas, garlic naan, saag paneer, and paneer tiki masala. Medium spice, which was on the spicy side, but not too spicy. The flavors were excellent! We enjoyed our meal very much!

Food was amazing, everyone i talked to was very nice and professional. Menus provided at the front counter. They have a staff member go around and check on everyone at the tables who is very attentive and friendly. And the food was plentiful. I had to take almost half of it with me to go. Very grateful this place is here and will definitely eat here again the next time I pass through.
