Punjab Canteen has a wide selection of Indian foods & even as someone who doesn't regularly eat it, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The atmosphere was great at night with a wide selection of pop songs & ambient lighting that made the dining experience even better. Highly recommend the Butter Naan & Lamb curry.

Quel régal de découvrir ce petit bijou caché! Les plats servis sont de délicieuses spécialités indiennes, préparées avec authenticité. Le personnel est d'une gentillesse remarquable, toujours le sourire aux lèvres. Sans oublier les prix très abordables qui rendent l'expérience d'autant plus agréable. Un vrai coin de paradis pour les amateurs de saveurs d'ailleurs.

I am very dissatisfied with the food. It was extremely spicy, & the first bite felt unbearable. I went to this restaurant yesterday for lunch with a friend. I specifically asked for non-spicy food & emphasized several times that I cannot tolerate spicy food. Despite that, the first dish they brought was incredibly chili-hot. They replaced it, but even after the change, the food was still very spicy. The server mentioned that their dishes are typically even spicier. I had to drink a lot of water & eat only bread to cope with the burning sensation in my mouth & throat. After two more attempts, they finally brought a non-spicy dish, but the quality of the chicken was very poor. I have never eaten such low-quality food in my life. I could NOT even tell which part of the chicken was used. To sum it up, I could have gotten much better food for half the price I paid. I wasted money & experienced a great deal of discomfort. I will never, ever go to this restaurant again. ☹🙁😕
