Review Summary

Royal Punjab is described as a go-to spot for rich, authentic Punjabi and Indian flavors, with standout dishes such as chole bhatura, bhatura, masala dosa and paneer dosa, along with excellent naan and dal makhani, and the thali often called spectacular; the atmosphere is warm and the service fast and friendly, and the value consistently praised, helped by a cozy layout that encourages conversation or even work, plus a breezy window seat noted by some; while dessert is frequently disappointing and a few main dishes can be a touch salty or have texture quirks, the overall impression is that this is affordable, home-style Indian cooking and among the best in Montreal, a favorite for dine-in or takeout with reliable quality.

I recently visited this place because word-of-mouth touted its chole bhatura - & they really deliver. The chole was rich & well-seasoned, & the bhatura came fluffy, warm, & perfectly puffed. Hands down some of the best chole bhatura I've had in a while.

That said, I'd recommend skipping dessert: the sweets we tried were disappointing - bland, underwhelming, & a major let-down after such a strong main dish. If you're there, go for the savory dishes & say no to the sweets.

Overall: great for a solid Indian meal - especially if you crave chole bhatura - but don't expect much from the dessert menu.

I love this place. The server who is most often there, Manjit, is SO sweet, lovely, & accommodating. The food is amazing, & the thali deal can't be beat. Such good value for beautiful, flavourful & nourishing meals every time. There is also a (?) magic window where, on even the most stifling of days, maintains a consistent breeze through it. Snag the window seat if you can! Excellent food/service/value. One of Montreal's best Punjabi restaurants hands down!

This restaurant is my favourite in the neighbourhood, I make sure to bring every visitor & friend here at least once. If I don't go at least once monthly I sincerely start to feel like my life/stomach/heart is missing something essential. Everytime I go I'm greeted by Manjit who is the absolute sweetest ! Cannot recommend enough. Affordable & delicious !

Really tasty butter chicken - not too sweet, nice spice. The naan is awesome & service is quick every time I order. It's a small place & not fancy, but the food makes up for it. Worth it!
