Punjab Canteen is widely praised for authentic Punjabi flavors, with standout Amritsari kulcha and comforting staples like dal makhani, chole bhature, prantha, kulcha and makki di roti with saag, served hot and well presented; the service is described as fast, friendly and attentive, with many noting warm hospitality and helpful menu recommendations that make diners feel at home; the atmosphere is cozy and the prices are considered reasonable for the portions and quality, making it a popular choice for families and repeat visits; while most experiences are very positive, a few reviews mention instances of slower service, busy or uneven service, and cleanliness issues in the dining area, and a small number note dishes that felt oilier than expected; overall the consensus is that Punjab Canteen delivers flavorful, homely food, strong hospitality, and solid value, and is worth a visit for Punjabi comfort food in Montreal.
Being honest we needed food to eat & all the places were closed & when we went there , (Anmol & Balram) the guys name they provided great hospitality & amazing food service. I will really come back next time.
Really really fantastic food…I have never tried its my personal experience becoz I usually explore the restaurant but punjab canteen is superb food ….. ❤?
Amazing flavours & service! Anmol was our waitress & she took very good care of us. Next time we're in the area we'll definitely be stopping by! Try the Dal Tadka & the garlic naan, to die for.
