Amazing Service & Delicious Food! I visited La Cantine Punjab in Montreal with a group of 9 friends, & it was an exceptional experience! The service was top-notch, & our server, Harman, went above & beyond to make sure we had a great time. He was extremely friendly, attentive, & made us feel truly welcomed. The food was incredible, perfectly capturing the flavors of Punjab. Despite being a large group, everything was served promptly, & Harman ensured we were well taken care of throughout. If you're in Montreal & looking for a place with great food & outstanding service, I highly recommend La Cantine Punjab. Big thanks to Harman & the team for such a memorable dining experience!
The Amritsari Kulcha was perfectly crisp & flavorful, paired with delicious chole & chutney. Great service & cozy ambiance made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommend!

Very personable staff. I asked for an Old Fashioned & they were out of oranges. They went out to buy one to make a very delicious drink. The appetizer & food were eating just like home food . If we are back in Montreal, will be definitely coming here.
The overall taste of the food was good, but I was deeply disappointed with the salad I was served. It appeared old & even had signs of fungus, raising concerns about the freshness of the food. This experience has made me hesitant to visit again
Punjab Canteen est l'un de mes restaurants indiens préférés à Montréal. En particulier, les plats savoureux venus du nord de l'Inde sont absolument excellents & incroyables. Le service est rapide en ayant les employés qui sont sympas & serviables. À l'intérieur, l'ambiance est extrêmement chaleureuse & détendue. La carte offre une tellement bonne variété de choix qui plairait à tout genre de goût. Hautement recommandé!
