Everything Everything is good, from cleanliness to food, everything is good.
Had a dinner yesterday
Food was too good and delicious and the quality was so good everything tasted great had the best meal and customer service was amazing they were very polite highly recommend
Best restaurant and best owner.🙏
The vegetable samosas were exceptional—perfectly crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside, practically bursting with flavor. They had just the right touch of mild spice and were absolutely worth the heat of holding them fresh from the kitchen.
The garlic naan was thin, buttery, and pleasantly fluffy. It wasn’t too heavy, which made it dangerously easy to keep eating—almost like popcorn.
The chicken tikka masala was delicious, served with long-grain white rice. The sauce had a rich, flavorful depth with a gentle spicy warmth that enhanced rather than overpowered the dish.
We also ordered the vegetable biryani, which was new to me. While it was well-prepared, I realized it’s not quite to my taste.
One of the things I always appreciate about Indian cuisine is how naturally it lends itself to sharing. My wife and I enjoyed being able to try a bit of everything by serving ourselves small portions from each dish.
The ambience at Punjab Cafe was relaxed, clean, and simple. The music was at a comfortable volume—a refreshing change from many places where it's too loud to talk.
Everything is so delicious! Love it!
The experience was awesome and like the food we order aloo tikki paneer naan and samosa. All the items were very tasty.
It is one of the best Indian foods that I've ever tried! I always go there for their buffet and they don't dissappoint! It reminds me of the food in India. I would recommend 10/10!
Best hospitality, good employee nature totally friendly
Best Indian buffet in downtown San Jose.
I had malai kofta and fried cauliflower. They were very good!! Rice is nice and fluffy. Whatever they spices in kofta is great! Not too spicy but feel little kick later 👍🏻

Still one of my favorite Indian Food buffets. Good location close to campus and a solid option for group dinners.
Below average. Ordered the butter chicken and tikka masala. Samosas and sauces, delicious. Sauce consistency was like a paste and not creamy. Naan was good
Love the food and the staff is always friendly besides the delicious options of good food I love the hot tea they provide
Excellent place to dine out. Authentic desi food
The owner is very friendly and welcoming.
