   Our new favorite - almost a year old, welcome to Aspen! Several dishes are outstanding! Try the prawn miange, tom kha gai, crispy pork + shrimp dumplings, Colorado lamb, yellow curry, banana mousse, jasmine tea panna cotta - can’t go wrong w/the pad Thai, and their Thai tea is the best I’ve ever had! The space is fairly intimate and mod cool from a design perspective. Servers were friendly and knowledgeable. As a frequent visitor to Aspen these days and having lived and worked here for years in my 20s, I would have loved to have been able to order takeout from this now local thai spot once a week… however, at almost 50 bucks for a single chicken pad thai w/tax and tip, I worry mere mortal hardworking locals w/a craving for delicious thai food might not be able to justify the prices sadly (which has always been an issue here in Aspen, now more so than ever apparently…)

   We had an amazing meal all thanks to our server, Ryan. He took the time to walk us through the menu in-depth and recommended some of the best dishes we've ever had. Will definitely be back!

   Very good food and service was great. It has a nice vibe as well. The only downside are the deserts.

   Very grateful for all the vegan options! Such a great addition to the Aspen food scene! The dim sum and salt+pepper tofu were particularly outstanding! We will be back.

   Soup wasn’t edible. Entree took 90 minutes. Price point is wild for type of Thai food, even in Aspen. Service was fine. One of the worst meals we’ve ever had. How does it have 4.5 stars on yelp?!

   Try the famous soup starter. One of the best soups I’ve ever had.

   Sway is one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve ever tried. Everything I’ve tried has been outstanding. The Tom Ka Gai soup is amazing and one of my favorite treats. The Veggie Fried Rice, Chicken Pad Thai, and Yams are all delicious as well. The portions are huge and very shareable. Honestly, the Pad Thai could feed at least three people - so, by Aspen standards, everything is economical, as well. To top it off, all the staff is extremely attentive and Daniel, the bartender, is the best. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite Aspen restaurants. Highly recommended.

    My first time dining at Sway. It was a lovely evening, so refreshing to have a calm, quiet place to connect with friends. The pad thai with chicken was great, we also shared the beef short rib with lettuce cups. Both were excellent. Service was friendly and efficient. I will definitely be back.
