Overall, reviewers describe Mini Punjab as a warm, family run spot in Pointe St Charles with welcoming staff, generous portions, and good value. The food is widely praised for authenticity and flavor, with favorites such as butter chicken, paneer dishes, samosas, chana masala, dal makhni, aloo gobi, baingan bharta, and especially the naan. The menu offers a broad range including vegetarian and meat curries, thalis, and street food options, and spice levels can be adjusted to taste. The service is repeatedly highlighted as friendly and attentive, making guests feel at home, and the atmosphere is simple, cozy, and unpretentious with Bollywood touches. Takeout and BYOB are available, and catering has impressed for events. A few notes of caution appear about certain items like kulchas or parathas needing more salt, and a dish order mix up in one experience, but these are outweighed by consistent praise. Overall, Mini Punjab is seen by many as one of the best Indian or Punjabi options in Montreal, a reliable go to for flavorful, comforting Indian dining.
Amazing Restaurant… Amazing food & Amazing staff. Visited all the way from Barrie, Ontario. Taste & Food was much better than most Ontario's restaurants.
We contacted mini Punjab to cater for a documentary screening, which was a great hit. We ordered their samosas, chicken tikka, chai, onion pakora, & naan.
The service was exceptional & the food was a big crowd pleaser. Definitely recommend for some authentic Indian food. Ps: this is coming from an Indian so you know its the real deal.
Delicious authentic Indian /punjabi food in Montreal. Easily the best meal of our trip. We had the butter chicken, palak paneer & chole bathura! Highly recommend!
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!

One of my favorite places to eat in Pointe-St.Charles. Food is delicious. I usually have the thali. Excellent mint sauce to accompany tasty tandoori. The nan is the best I've had so far. Authentic chai. Always a treat. Owners & staff are very friendly.
I recently ordered catering for 20 people, & I must say - the experience exceeded all expectations! The food was absolutely delicious, warm, & packed with flavor. The quality & quantity were both outstanding. In fact, the spread was generous enough to easily serve 30 people!!
The **pricing was very reasonable** for the level of service & food we received. I also want to extend a special **thank you to the owner Veerpal** for arranging delivery which was a huge help & made the entire experience seamless for me.
Highly recommended for any event - I'll definitely be ordering again!
(Posting few pictures below - the food looked as amazing as it tasted!)
