Honestly, Punjab Canteen hit the spot. The food was fire, super fresh, & tasted like real home?style comfort food. The vibe inside was relaxed & everyone was super friendly.
Big shoutout to the team , they really made the experience. Super chill, super helpful, & just good energy overall. You can tell they actually care about the customers.
I had mentioned 2 orders - one Amritsari kulcha with gobi & one with aloo - but they packed both as aloo. I've attached pictures below. On top of that, it was extremely bland & overcooked. The chicken was even worse - very poor packaging, & first of all, it was not even fresh. It didn't seem fresh for at least 2-3 days, it even smelled bad.
What is a customer supposed to do in this situation? I ordered through Uber, at least there should be some basic sense of responsibility. The owner & the cook should have some shame. If you're taking orders, the owner should pay attention to takeout quality, & the chef should actually do their job properly. It's disappointing to see our own desi Punjabi people becoming so careless & unprofessional..bai j nahi kam hunda apda ghare baith jo ya kite warehouse shifta lalo koi order karda khan nu take out bdia bna kya kro jma malang te vehlad ban rhe ne..uni hi priority rakho jini dining di a food di take out v paise de k krvayi da na ki free ch..

Went for Valentine's Day with my wife & 10 year old daughter. Service was great, food was awesome but a bit spicy however my 10 year old could handle it. Great service decor. Only negative was the tables are a bit wobbly. Overall great experience. It was our second time there & 1st experience was equally great 👍

I ordered 2 portions of their new chicken 65 & this what i got for 35 dollars not worth the price & the portion is also very small. Never going to come here again experience was not good & taste is also so so . 🙄 & they also took a lot of time to give the order.
