It is a decent Indian restaurant. Lots of authentic Indian food with lots of customization. It is also affordable & it is mainly for students so the price is good. I like coming here whenever I am feeling homesick. In the summer they have sugarcane juice which is delicious.
Recently I tried the vada pav & it was delicious. The 2 chutneys were great. Spicy & sweet. Great job!
A truly authentic Indian place. Everything tasted fresh & perfectly spiced, with deep flavors in every bite. I loved the taste & the overall experience-highly recommend.
Great food with authentic Indian flavors & a pleasant atmosphere. Service could use a little improvement, but overall a good experience & worth visiting again.

I had the most delicious paranthas at this restaurant! The paranthas were perfectly crispy on the outside & soft inside, stuffed, spicy on request generously with flavorful fillings. They reminded me of authentic homemade paranthas from India. Served hot with fresh yogurt, tangy pickles, & butter melting on top-absolutely comforting & satisfying. The taste, portion size, & presentation were excellent. Definitely a must-try for anyone craving real Indian comfort food! Best chefs in town Parminder & Rajwinder.
My dining experience at this Punjabi restaurant was absolutely fantastic! The honey gobi was a knockout-perfectly crispy cauliflower coated in a sweet & tangy glaze that was incredibly addictive. It was the ideal balance of flavors & texture. To wash it all down, I had the mango lassi, & it was one of the best I've ever tasted. Rich, creamy, & bursting with the fresh, sweet flavor of ripe mango.
Everything, from the delicious food to the warm & inviting atmosphere, made for a truly memorable meal. I can't wait to go back & try more of their authentic dishes. Five stars!

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.
