English translation follows my original review----

Un des meilleurs restaurants indiens à Montréal! Grande amatrice de cuisine indienne, j'ai essayé beaucoup de restaurants indiens dans le passé, mais celui-ci se démarque & est devenu de loin mon préféré. Très authentique cuisine du Punjab. Je n'irais plus ailleurs!

Je suis allée à de nombreuses reprises depuis leur ouverture, & en plus, je dois dire que je trouve que c'est encore meilleur de fois en fois!

J'ai pu goûter au fil du temps à plusieurs plats. Voici des highlights sur certains & les incontournables:

Leurs samosas sont excellents (les meilleurs que j'ai mangés!), de même que les plats d'agneau (viande très tendre & en bonne quantité), saag & poulet au beurre : tous super!

Côté végétarien, j'ai aussi essayé le Daal Makhni, le Chana masala, le Aloo gobi, le Baingan Bharta (fantastique), & le Palak paneer. Je recommande d'essayer plusieurs plats si vous êtes en groupe, ils sont tous délicieux.

Les thalis sont aussi une très bonne option si vous êtes seul. Petite suggestion: il serait intéressant d'avoir plus de choix de combos pour 1 ou 2 personnes. (mis à part les thalis & le combo poulet au beurre).

Les prix sont raisonnables pour la qualité & la quantité généreuse.

🌶?-- Si vous aimez très épicé & piquant, ils peuvent faire les plats plus ou moins épicés selon vos goûts, si vous le demandez :) Maintenant, quand j'y vais, le niveau d'épices est parfait pour moi à chaque fois!

L'ambiance est simple & sans prétention. Si vous mangez sur place, vous trouverez peut-être que les lieux auraient besoin d'un peu de rénovation & de déco, mais il y a un écran qui diffuse de la musique en fond & de la danse type Bollywood, ce qui est agréable & réchauffe l'ambiance. Ils ont repris les lieux d'un ancien restaurant de déjeuners, donc c'est la même déco & meubles. Mais ce n'est pas grave, car c'est un endroit convivial, & relax.

Le service est exceptionnel & vous vous sentirez bien accueillis. C'est une entreprise familiale. & on se sent comme en famille :)

Bref, le Mini Punjab est un petit joyau à Pointe St-Charles! Si vous recherchez un service chaleureux & de la nourriture indienne délicieuse & authentique dans un cadre relax, vous allez adorer. Vous pouvez aussi commander pour apportez. Ah & j'allais oublier: c'est un apportez son vin!

One of the best Indian restaurants in Montreal! As a big fan of Indian cuisine, I've tried many restaurants over the years, but this one truly stands out & has quickly become my absolute favorite. Very authentic Punjabi cuisine - I wouldn't go anywhere else!

I've been here many times since they opened, & honestly, it just keeps getting better each time.

Here are some highlights & must-tries:

Samosas: excellent (the best I've ever had!)

Lamb dishes: tender meat, generous portions

Butter Chicken: outstanding

Vegetarian options: Daal Makhni, Chana Masala, Aloo Gobi, Baingan Bharta (fantastic), Palak Paneer - all delicious. Perfect to share if you're in a group.

The thalis are also a great option if you're dining solo. One small suggestion: it would be great to have more combo options for 1 or 2 people (more lamb options, including a starter, for example?)

Prices are reasonable for the quality & generous portions.

🌶? Spice level: If you love it hot, they can adjust the spice to your taste when you ask. :)

The atmosphere is simple & unpretentious. If you dine in, you might notice the place could use a bit of renovation or décor, but there's a screen playing Bollywood music & dance, which adds warmth & charm. They took over a former breakfast spot, so the furniture & décor are the same. Still, it's cozy, casual, & welcoming.

The service is exceptional - you'll feel right at home. It's a family-run business, & you truly feel like part of the family.

In short, Mini Punjab is a hidden gem in Pointe St-Charles! If you're looking for warm service & delicious, authentic Indian food in a relaxed setting, you'll love it. Takeout is also available. & I almost forgot: it's BYOB!

Yumm! Not oily at all. We had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant last night, where everything was cooked to perfection. The staff was attentive-when a friend mentioned his gluten allergy, the waitress suggested him a gluten free bread (makki di roti), which he loved. The food was amazing, & the service was warm & thoughtful. I even got to meet the chef, who was so kind & friendly. It's clear the family works very hard for their customers!! & now it's our go to place!

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!

A friend brought me to Mini Punjab today for my first time & I have to say that I had a great experience.
A family run restaurant (mother is in the kitchen & daughter out front), super nice people, excellent food, & very reasonably priced. We had Shrimp Corma, Lamb Curry, Palak Paneer, & amazing garlic nann!
I will be back for sure!!!!
