We were trying to place an online order for New Year's Day and unable to do so. I called the restaurant and the owner picked up and offered to deliver it himself! The food arrived quick and fresh and everyone loved it. We will definitely be ordering again!

Excellent service and Delicious Authentic Punjabi Food
Ordered Chicken koorma with onion kulcha and Kadai Chicken with garlic naan. Eventhough Onion kulcha was little disappointing, Portions were really generous and tastes really good. I got my go to place to order Naan and curries regularly.

Amazing food, wonderful experience!
Firstly, Paa ji welcomed us warmly.
The restaurant is cozy and welcoming.
We ordered paneer delicacies and the paneer was perfectly cooked.
Chole bathuras were the BEST! Have thoroughly enjoyed them.
The pricing is very economical
For the price, they served good quantities.
Definitely worth coming in. We will come back for sure.

I enjoy Pakistani food, so when in areas with Pakistani restaurants, I try to try new ones… I recently came in here with a colleague for lunch. The place was clean, I could even see in the kitchen and it looked nice. Service was fine. The menu is filled with the typical Pakistani/Indian delights. We tried their chicken tikka (boneless) kabob. The flavors were really good and the meat was tender. It came out perfect. The naan was incredibly soft and perfect texture and density too. Their veggie biryani was more of a mix of curry into the rice, versus the right way of making it with curry folded into the rice with some other colored rices folded in as well. The flavors were just a messy/overall single flavor, rather than tasting the different flavors. The karahi was really just a stewed chicken curry, versus a freshly made stir fried (in a karahi) style curry with fresh tomatoes and chicken. I could tell by how melty and stewed down the chicken was. Overall, the flavor was ok, but it didn’t resemble the karahi I’m familiar with from making ir and eating it in Pakistani family kitchens over the years. I still enjoyed the visit and if I came back, I’d stick with kabobs
After discovering this restaurant, I'm HOOKED. Had multiple dishes and appetizers and each one was spiced right and savory.
My orders so far to date - Tangy Aloo Chat, Aloo Tikki Chaat, Goan Fish Curry (Amazing), Chicken Vindaloo (Amazing), Chicken Karahi (Amazing), Lacha paratha bread, and Naan. Thank you, Jogi, Mom, Dad and the Chef. So far, I have really been impressed and will continue to come back for tasty and delicious Indian Entress.

Restaurantji Recommends
I had such a great experience at this Indian restaurant. The butter chicken was absolutely delicious it was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor, paired perfectly with the fluffy white rice. The samosas were golden and crispy, and the tamarind sauce and chutney took them to another level. The garlic naan was soft, warm, and perfect for scooping up the sauce. On top of the amazing food, the service was truly outstanding. The staff were so friendly and attentive, making the whole meal even more enjoyable. Everything tasted fresh and authentic, and the portions were generous without being too heavy. I’ll definitely be coming back, highly recommend this spot if you want incredible Indian food and excellent service!

Chole bhature was real let down was afraid if we will get sick after tasting the double fried brown bhaturas.
Punjabi Junction is a hidden gem in the DMV area. Delicious food, friendly staff, and reasonably priced. I drive out of my way to go to this place. I usually do carryout - the food is packaged well with generous portions. Highly reccomend.

I have no hesitation to give all 5 stars for the quality of food and services after we concluded my kids bday event. They catered a wide range of veg and non-veg items with great taste n spice standards. Many thanks to owner Balwinder Uncle Ji and Jogi bhai for curating the menu and maintaining the food quality for us. The hospitality and services by every staff member was very welcoming fr us and all guests. Thank you very much PJ.
As someone who loves and respects Punjabi food, this place was heartbreaking. The garlic naan wasn’t even fully cooked. Paneer tikka masala had no flavor, no texture – just a mess. The channa bhatura tasted like cardboard. This isn’t just bad food, it’s a misrepresentation of a beautiful cuisine.
