About

The menu highlights bold flavor profiles achieved through authentic spice blends and high-heat preparation techniques. Guests encounter a variety of protein alternatives crafted from paneer, lentils, and fresh vegetables seasoned to reflect classic regional standards. The open kitchen layout emphasizes the process of grilling skewers and preparing breads within traditional tandoor ovens. Each platter showcases intricate spice balance rather than relying solely on heat levels, providing a comprehensive view of subcontinent culinary practices. The environment prioritizes functional, no-frills service that maintains a consistent focus on ingredient quality. This establishment delivers straightforward preparations of staple recipes that cater to those seeking genuine aromatic profiles and traditional cooking methods.

Very disappointing & unprofessional experience at Punjab Canteen.

We called in advance to reserve a table, but no one informed us that several of their popular dishes are not served after 10:00 p.m. This included Chole Kulcha, Amritsari Kulcha, & other specialty items. This information was not clearly mentioned on their website, nor was it communicated during our phone call.

While we were at the restaurant, we noticed that these dishes were still available on Uber Eats for pickup. After we discussed among ourselves that we could order them through Uber Eats, the items were suddenly marked unavailable. The timing made the situation feel especially rude & unprofessional.

We had arrived hungry & were left with very limited options. Future customers should confirm in advance whether the dishes they want are available, especially when visiting around or after 10:00 p.m.

The restaurant should clearly publish its kitchen timings & dish availability online & inform customers when they call to reserve a table.

Absolutely terrible service. Everything was incredibly slow, & it felt like nobody cared about the customers. The staff showed no sense of urgency, no communication, & no concern for how long people were waiting. It was a very frustrating experience & definitely not worth the wait. This restaurant seriously needs to improve its customer service & respect people's time.

Always love to see a pani puri!

Thw chicken tikka masala was so tender & moist & quite spicy which I loved but my son couldn't eat, which the waitress did warn us about.

A little slow of service for a fairly dead restaurant.

Then ordered malai kofta & it was quite sweet almost like butternut squash soup but my son liked it.

My cocktail was sickenly sweet & I couldn't even finish it even watered down.

Also, rice not being included is 👎🏻.

Was not told we would need to go up to the counter to pat after given the check so we were just sitting there for 10+ minutes.
