Best Punjabi food you can get in Montréal. Amazing hospitality by Anmoldeep. All other staff members were welcoming & accomodating with the kids as well. Must visit. Will definitely come back again & again & recommend everyone. Amritsari Kulcha & Chai were the best 👌

I ordered Amritsari Kulcha from this restaurant that was served with a chutney, salad & chole.
Absolutely loved it, the kulcha was very well garnished & tasted awesome.
If I ever visit Montreal again I will surely visit this place.
We ordered Dahi Puri, Achari chaap, Honey chilli Potato, Spring roll, Amritsari Kulcha, Chole Bhature, Thali, Kulfi, Masala lemonade & soft drink.
The food prices are very reasonable & the food was very delicious. We will come again.
The best delicious & authentic punjabi food Amritsari kulcha, masala chai, & parathas ❤?😋😋 with good service. It becomes our ritual to visit this place for brunch whenever we visit Montreal.
Amritsari kulcha is undoubtedly very tasty & packed with flavors - it's the only thing I genuinely liked about the place.
Unfortunately, the overall experience was quite disappointing. The restaurant was extremely dirty, with almost all the tables left uncleared. Shockingly, there seemed to be only one person managing everything - from taking orders to serving food.
To make matters worse, when our dish was served, there were no plates provided. We had to use tissue paper to eat, which was both uncomfortable & unhygienic.
Their service & cleanliness standards seriously need improvement. I wouldn't recommend this place unless they make some major changes.
Punjab Canteen might not win any awards for ambience-it's a simple, no-frills setup-but if you're looking for authentic, delicious Indian food with warm, genuine service, this place is a gem.
Our family was in Montreal for four days & tried 7-8 different Indian restaurants, including some highly rated fine dining spots. But when it came to actual taste & hospitality, Punjab Canteen stood out by a mile. We ended up coming back every single day for brunch because nothing else came close.
Highly recommend the Amritsari kulcha-crispy, flavorful, & served with a comforting chole. The yellow dal was soulful & home-style, & both the chaat & bread pakora hit the spot. Real, honest food.
A big shoutout to Balram & Muskan, who made us feel like family each time we visited. If you care more about what's on your plate than the decor around you, this is absolutely worth a visit.
Wonderful service Delicious food We ordered Amritsari Kulcha (2 in one plate) The size was like regular Nan. Normally the Amritsari are bigger The taste was too good . Served with chola salad pickle & green chutney The next item we called was Saag with Tawa roti Quality was good had to take away home The tawa roti after a while became dry & hard, Although when consumed instantly it can be saved from drying Also had their delicious Ras Malai ( 2pcs in one place )
Best Amritsari kulchas in Montreal & Best North indian food in Montreal. We trued veg food & all the dishes were delicious.. highly Recommend this restaurant.
