decent amount of options - Edit
i love that there’s an all vegan menu. there was a decent amount to choose from. we got papadum free for the table and 2 of the 3 sauces were vegan. (the red & green were the vegan ones.) we got the alu tikki potato patties appetizer and they were decent, they had a sweetness to them. it would’ve been better with a dipping sauce. for my entree i got the black tadka dal which isn’t my usual. i usually get yellow dal. i liked it, it was flavorful, but i think i would’ve rather had my usual lol. the rice was plain with no oil or salt or anything on it. we also got one plate of rice to share between two of us, but we got more free when we asked. i still enjoyed my meal. i got the lacha paratha bread and it was good, i’m always glad to have a vegan bread option with indian.
Read moretheir website had a vegan dessert (mango kulfi) but it wasn’t listed in their vegan section of the menu, so i’m not sure if it’s vegan or not.
i was clearly ordering off the vegan menu and the server asked me if i wanted butter still, so just beware and make sure you specify vegan. i’m glad he asked. if i lived nearby i would come back to try the yellow dal.

The flavors in the food are absolutely fantastic. Should be able to rate 5 stars with the dedicated vegan menu for all courses

A must for anyone who loves Indian food - Edit
We have been going here for a few years now and have never had a bad meal. They give perfect sized portions and even include rice with your meal. Service is fantastic. If u pay with cash you save 10%. Love this place!!!

Best Indian Food - Edit
Everything I had from Sawan was amazing! The samosas, yellow dal, Alu tikki, and masala was perfectly spiced and delicious. Will definitely be going here regularly now!

Great Indian Food - Edit
If they delivered i would order from them twice a week probably. It’s so hard to pick up food with my young kids schedules. That’s a hint😉Regardless their good is great. Great vegan options. Clear and easy to find on the menu.

Excellent restaurant with lots of vegan options - Edit
This is one of my favorite restaurants. They have a large vegan section on their menu. I have yet to try something from it that I don’t like. The management and staff are kind, and the wait time is typically very short. I highly recommend Sawan.

Way more Vegan options than I'm used to! - Edit
I had been getting tired of the limited rotation of 3 or 4 vegan dishes offered by most Indian restaurants, so I was pretty excited to find Sawan which boasts a DOZEN vegan entrees. That's far more than I've seen at most Indian restaurants. All are clearly marked, reasonably priced and the incredibly kind staff are eager to accommodate. I will definitely go back.
