Punjabi Canteen

18 dollars for Chicken Tikka Massala and it doesn't even come on rice. Who wants to pay that much for a few pieces of chicken and a whole bowl of sauce???

I recently had the Butter Chicken with Rotti, and it was absolutely delicious! The butter chicken was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor, while the rotti was perfectly soft and complemented the dish so well. Every bite was a delight, and the portion size was generous for the price. Definitely worth the money, and I’ll be coming back for more. Highly recommended!

We went here last Saturday and had a great meal. Lots of vegetarian options for our daughter. We requested medium heat for the dishes we ordered and it was just right. Very flavorful. Butter Chicken was excellent. We will go back.

Atmosphere is fabulous but food quality is not good. Food was not properly cooked and was missing flavor in it.

My daughter and I dropped in to the Punjabi Canteen on the spur of the moment and are very glad that we did. The meal was substantial and superb. Alana had the Butter Chicken entrée and I had the Chicken Korma, along with garlic naan bread, gulab jamun, mango lassi and masala chai tea. All dishes and beverages were winners!

There are a large number of selections available on the menu and I was quite impressed by that.

We shall definitely be back now that the place has been discovered. I did have an Uber driver from the Punjab a few weeks ago who recommended the Punjabi Canteen to me and was he ever right on the money.

Food was bland overall, had a stale smell. They forgot to add salt in one of the dishes. Maybe they can cut down the number of items in their menu and focus on few items with quality and freshness. I will not buy here as long as there are better options.

Must try Amritsari Kulcha, will definitely remind you of Amritsar’s street Kulcha. Very authentic taste. Big fan of Amritsari Kulcha. Thank you for taking me back to my memory!
Ordered Dal Makhni as well, very subtle taste, the authentic taste of ghee, makes it taste so well.
A must try these two things.

Looking forward to explore more options.

Ordered in from Punjabi Canteen for the first time with my husband and it was amazing! I have an allergy to dairy, so seeing that they have a curated menu for dairy free dishes was really really helpful for someone like me!! Food tasted amazing and was pretty afforable.
