Im not sure why do many people rate this so highly. Compared to Royal Taj the food was bland . More like diner food, definately diner atmosphere. Lamb vindaloo lacked flavor. Garlic naan was not very tasty and neither was the rice. You pay extra for chutney, which they serve in a plastic carry out cup. Of course that would all be acceptable if the food was very good. I don’t expect it to have the atmosphere or the service as some of the finer Indian restaurants but I do expect the food to taste as good. Also FYI we did not know that no one comes to your table to take your order so we waited for a long time only to figure out that you have to go to the counter. Portions a little small for the price too. Hostess was very nice though

Wow! I am beyond happy with my experience here. I ordered take out, and the minute I opened the bag I knew I was in for something good. The rice was fluffy and well seasoned, the samosas were big and crispy, and the curries were all absolutely delicious (chicken tikka masala and chicken saag). I will say they were a little spicy for me (I ordered medium), so next time I will probably get mild. The daal makhani was also incredible. Even though I didn’t dine in, I could tell the space was clean and the owner was very friendly and welcoming. I normally don’t like to eat out because I often end up feeling disappointed and like the food wasn’t worth the price. Not this time – I’m already planning my next visit. Thank you!

Delicious, fresh and name your spice level. Yes, I over ordered! But I have yummy food for days! Cooked to order and you can taste it! Its’s a little pricey but it’s worth it because you are not making this food at home!!! Enjoy!!!

Delicious food, and wonderful service. The vegetarian appetizer is perfect to share, fried but not greasy with great chutney. The bullet naan is one of the best I’ve had. The main dishes are deeply flavorful, distinct & complex. I love the paneer makhani & the vindaloo sauce. A wonderful unexpected find that has become a go-to when I’m in the area.

Family, do not sleep on this Indian restaurant please! Their food is amazing! They serve fresh, quality dishes, seasoned to perfection and cooked with passion. I’ve tried many dishes here and have never been disappointed. If you’re unsure what to order or the appropriate spice level, just ask and they patiently describe the various dishes and make recommendations. I only got the fried bread, samosas and the chaat from the app menu (sp?) today because my daughter wants this for dinner. Next time you’re craving Indian food, do yourself a favor and try Punjab Café. You won’t regret it.

We were on a week-long business trip in Virginia and, honestly, struggled to find good food the entire time. On our drive back home to Connecticut, we came across Punjabi Cafe, and it completely changed our experience!
We ordered chicken curry, garlic naan, jeera rice, and mango lassi, and every dish was bursting with authentic flavors. As South Indians who love spicy food, we were pleasantly surprised that it tasted just like home-cooked South Indian food.
The flavors, freshness, and warmth made us feel truly at home. A big thank-you to the chef he definitely has magical hands! I’d highly recommend Punjabi Cafe to anyone who loves real Indian cuisine.

Okay, let’s talk food! ️✨
My family and I almost went the Italian route, but then we realized—we’ve never tried Punjab Café! So we switched it up… and wow, no regrets at all.
From the moment we walked in, the owners made us feel so welcome. Super friendly vibes. Now let’s get into the good stuff:
We ordered the Butter Chicken, Garlic Naan, and Chicken Tikka Masala—and let me tell you, flavor explosion! Every bite was rich, savory, and packed with authentic Indian spice.
It felt like we were tasting a slice of India right from our plates—and we loved every bit of it. Definitely adding this spot to our go-to food list!

I’m so glad I came here. The food was really good, the spice level was really good for a medium. The flavor was soo good. I will definitely come back.

Something happened. I’ve eaten herea few times and the naan, samosas, and buttered chicken were always great. Its been about a month since I last ate here and everything is lower quality. The naan is too bready, along with the samosas, and the butter chicken doesn’t taste the same at all. Maybe they got a new cook. It wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t great either.

We flew in from Tampa to visit with family and stumbled upon this wonderful place. The food is absolutely delicious. I will definitely look forward to coming back here when we come to visit. It was so good we didn’t even have a chance to take photos.
