I was in the mood for a delicious dosa this morning; so I decided to stop by Mini Punjab to satisfy the craving. I ordered the plain dosa; which came served with chutneys & some sambar. The dosa itself was great, & the pricing felt entirely fair & reasonable.
The sides were a bit of a mixed bag, however. The sambar was okay; but the chutneys left something to be desired. The mint chutney was alright; but I really missed having a classic coconut chutney to go with it. Beyond that, their South Indian menu options feel a bit limited overall. They did not have additions like ghee or podi; & idlis were surprisingly not available before noon. As a huge fan of ghee; I really wish they would offer it as an add-on option on their regular menu.
That being said; the visit was still very pleasant. The lady who served me was nice, polite, & welcoming throughout but did seem to speak French or even English very well. It is a good local spot with good potential; & I will definitely be back to sample some of their North Indian specialties!

Had an amazing experience at Mini Punjab Restaurant! The food tasted just like homemade food - fresh, flavorful, not too spicy, & not oily at all. We tried the chole bhature, dosa, mango shake, & rasmalai, & everything was delicious. The rasmalai especially tasted fresh & homemade. Highly recommend this place if you want authentic Indian food with great taste & quality!

I just found out about this place being open on Center & had to try it out!

The menu is really fun with classics, but more importantly many dishes you'd typically have at an India home in a family setting.

They have a great selection of street foods & will spice it up or down just as you like it 😋

Masala dosa was great, as was my friends chicken dosa. The other Thalies being served to other patrons all looked fantastic!

Il be head back to MINI PUNJAP to try most everything on the menu, & so should you!
