South First Street Thai spot Sway merits an impressive 8.5 out of 10 in this review from the Austin American-Statesman's Matthew Odam. He writes that chef Rene Ortiz and entrepreneur Jesse Herman's "inviting and comforting" restaurant excels in "concealing complexity beneath robust flavors." Sway's curries hit a "culinary crescendo," while "brilliant" pastry chef Laura Sawicki's desserts "blend ascendant flavors with more firmly rooted ones." [Austin360]
