Had a great experience at Punjab Canteen! I tried the veg burger & my mom had the chana puri - both dishes were absolutely delicious. The flavors were authentic, & their special chutney/sauce really took everything to the next level. We also had excellent service from our waitresses, Anu & Siya, who were friendly, attentive, & welcoming. Special mention to the owner, Raman, whose professionalism & warmth made our visit even better. Highly recommend this spot for anyone craving tasty & well-prepared Indian food in Montreal!

UPDATE: Went again to try their thali & it really fell short. The Dal Makhani was Kaali Dal not actually Dal Makhani, the shahi paneer was too sweet. However I did LOVE the fact they serve the gulab jamun hot at the end of the thali as part of their thali. Great touch! Won't be going there for main course just street food. Also turn down the music just a bit please. It was at the right volume at my first visit.
