Great new restaurant in aspen! Among the best Thai food I've had in my life. One of the friendliest waiters in Colorado. We left Sway very happy and will definitely return. Bravo.

I am a well seasoned foodie and usually “ho hum” great restaurants as I have been to many. Their food absolutely blew me away! The shrimp and chicken wings were amazing! Incredible use of seasonings! I highly recommend this restaurant!

Sway is very attractively decorated with minimalist wood aesthetic. Staff were attentive and very pleasant. The food was disappointing unfortunately. It's not a true Thai restaurant and is more like a fusion of Peruvian and Thai. Had I understood this I would likely have been less surprised by what we were served. We had fresh oysters which was the best of the dishes. A prawn special caught me by surprise because it turned out to be a type of ceviche with raw prawns. Cold raw prawns is something I would never order. There is no raw fish or prawns in any Thai food which is why I say it was more Peruvian in nature. Tiger cry our next dish was a sliced strip steak and the biggest disappointment of all. I ordered medium rare and it came well done but the biggest issue was the quality of the meat. It was mealy and like cotton wool in the mouth. The more you chewed the drier and more fragmented it became. Almost as though it had been treated with some sort of tenderiser. Very strange and not a taste or sensation I have ever had from steak before. The restaurant of course removed the dish and the steak from the bill so they reacted appropriately to the situation but it was somewhat disappointing. The kitchen had closed so we cashed out and left.

We were there over Presidents Day week when visiting Aspen. Food was fantastic and ambiance was great. I especially liked the various vegetarian and vegan food items. A very welcome change from all the steak and Italian places in Aspen. We were at a table with a larger group but the bar also looked like a great place to grab a cocktail (great cocktail menu) and some tasty food.
Really awesome experience! Loved how fast the food came out. I can tell the kitchen and service staff are communicating well together. Really great vibe, and I can't wait to go back! Thank you!

FINALLY good Thai is Aspen. And I mean GREAT Thai. Atmosphere is awesome, food exceptional and portion sizes generous. Best value in Aspen. Add this to the rotation!
Sway is the newest restaurant in Aspen & I was super excited to try it, however I was very disappointed with both the food and service! My friend and I ordered 2 dishes - mine arrived 15 minutes before hers and by the time she got her food, I was already done. The food tastes very average and the spices are not authentic or tasty! It's overpriced for average Thai food! It's hard to make bad Thai food but Sway is definitely among the worst restaurants in Aspen! I don't think it will stay open for too long!

Our party of six enjoyed great service and wonderful food on a crowded Friday night. Highly recommend vegetarian shu mai, son in law dish, pad thai, and yellow curry. Will definitely go back.

My family and I visited the new Thai restaurant in Aspen. I have to give the restaurant a low rating, even though most of the food was good. We ordered the whole fish, which was supposed to be one and half pounds. Yet, our serving was less than half of that. I mentioned it to the manager and his response--" I need to talk to the chef.". That was most disappointing as it was the most expensive entree.

Came here for a girls’ night. Food was fantastic. We shared all the plates and got the papaya salad, green curry, shrimp dumplings, and pad Thai. It was all delicious!

Very tasty food and fun ambiance. Beautiful wood decor, and cozy atmosphere. Staff very friendly and helpful. The food was fantastic, classic Thai dishes with a twist. One of the best restaurants in Aspen. Will definitely come back! Keep it up!
