Kuljit India is widely praised as a hidden gem with a warm ambiance and fast, friendly service, offering authentic Indian and Punjabi flavors that shine from samosas and chana bhatura to butter chicken, naan, aloo gobi, and fish pakora. The food is described as fresh, flavorful, and reasonably priced, with many diners noting generous portions and a homely, no-nonsense approach that keeps locals and visitors coming back for takeout or dine-in. Spice levels are customizable, and some dishes are highlighted as must-tries, including the amritsari kulcha and the chole bhatura. While the restaurant is consistently busy and the overall experience is positive, a few reviews point to occasional portion size changes, uneven service, and decor that could improve, and one account mentions a staff member being less welcoming. On balance, Kuljit India emerges as one of the city's top Indian-Punjabi options, delivering delicious, comforting dishes at fair prices and a reliable, repeat-worthy dining experience.
We dined in on a Tuesday night & it wasn't too busy. They allowed us to sit for a few hours without pressuring us to order more or to leave. The food is amazing & tastes as authentic as it gets. Prices are reasonable & the staff were great in offering recommendations!
Very tasty food, staff is polite, & the atmosphere is alright. A little pricey for Indian cuisine, but then again, food pricing has gone up so much in the past 4 years... It's just becoming difficult for everyone to procure groceries at decent prices.
I've been coming to this place since I was a child, & the food has always been top-notch. Whenever we come as a family, we order the thali because it lets us try different dishes at a reasonable cost. Be sure to try the mango lassi & the butter chicken-they're amazing! Their samosas are also delicious. The restaurant is small, so I would recommend avoiding rush hours if possible.

Ordered tea for 5 people & had to wait for 40 mins. Not sure why so much delays. Can't enter the shop for a small snacking in minimal time. They will delay it even if it's not busy time.
We visited this place for a quick lunch. Ordered veg & non veg thali. The veg thali was awesome tasty & very hot. The naan bread was so soft. However, the lamb curry in the non veg thali was very bad. It had a very bad taste. The veg thali had daal which was soooooo good. Baingan bartha (burnt aubergine curry) was also very nice. Paid 30$ in total. Okay for a one time visit. Family owned place was neat & brightly lit.
Kuljit Restaurant have one of the best Indian Cuisine for years. They are very friendly staff & care about their clients. I tried many of their dishes & you can never go wrong.
