"Ordered in advance, Punjab Cafe accepted the order around 6:40pm and I received the order at 7:10pm (asked for 7-7:20 delivery)
I ordered the 24oz Butter Chicken (which is HUGE), the Chicken Tikka, Garlic Naan, a small rice (enough for 3 people), and 2 orders of the Vegetable Samosas (4 total)
Everything was piping hot and wrapped with extra care. Definitely enough food for 4 people
The Butter Chicken is a delicious tandoori style chicken in a creamy butter sauce. I ordered mild but will try medium next time as mild literally has no spice
The Chicken Tikka was my favorite. I ordered medium and it had the perfect amount of spice. It comes with onions and peppers with are an added bonus. Each piece of chicken is a sizable chunk (about 2 inches cubed)
The Vegetable Samosas are nice and crunchy. I typically like them spicier, but they were still delicious"
"The Butter Chicken ( 16 OZ ) and Garlic Naan is insanely good and a pretty great price for 2-3 servings of food. I got mild spice level and it was perfect for me but still a little spicy. The naan was super buttery and garlicky and just perfect with the butter chicken. Highly, highly, highly recommend!"

"Poori (2 pcs.) w/ Kurma & Aamras and Beach Sundal (12 oz.) amazing food , so fresh and delicious, just like home made ! "
"I have to think very carefully before I order next time. Except Raita , rest of the items (sambhar, veg kurma and coconut chutney) didn't taste good at all!
Sambhar was super salty, thick and it had just couple of carrot pieces. Coconut chutney wasn't in good condition- I felt it was made too long ago. Veg kurma hardly had any veg - it was just boiled water with coconut milk.
I doubt I'll be ordering again. "

"Truly one of my favorite go-to places for momos. I fell in love with momos while living in India and was happy to find something comparable. I've yet to be disappointed by any of their dishes - their butter chicken is wonderful and they follow your request for spicy or not spicy. Their garlic naan and plain naan are fluffy and soft.

"Thalapakatti goat biryani is very delicious with a good amount of meat and very flavorful rice. Best in the bay area."
"Guntur Chicken was good- spicy, lots of onions and oil.
Chicken Chettinadu was spicy and paired well with Malabar parata.
I'd skip the Goat Biryani, goat was very chewy, didn't have the flavors of biriyani. The rice tasted the same as the rice from the vijayawada biriyani. Didn't seem like basmati, probably jeeraga samba or something similar. Masala was a bit raw and when paired with chewy goat, made the biriyani unpleasant.
Giving a thumbs up, as they went out of their way to fix the terrors of last order"

"21. Lahori Choley, a traditional Punjabi chickpea curry, is an absolute delight at Khan's. The rich blend of spices, the tender chickpeas, and the flavorful gravy create a symphony of taste that transports me back to the streets of Lahore. Each bite is a burst of authentic flavors that are both comforting and satisfying.
35. Chapli Kabob (2 Pcs.) , a signature dish from Khan karahi, is a true masterpiece of flavor and texture. Each succulent bite of tender meat, marinated to perfection with a blend of aromatic spices, took my taste buds on a delightful journey. The smoky aroma and charred edges added an authentic touch, reminiscent of traditional tandoor cooking.
Overall, I highly recommend Lahori Choley and Chapli Kabob to anyone craving authentic Pakistani cuisine. Whether you're a fan of spicy curries or savory rice dishes. Both of these have something to satisfy your cravings. "

I also really appreciated their excellent to-go packaging. Everything was packed neatly and securely, keeping the food fresh and warm without any mess. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and provided great service throughout the experience.

"Butter chicken arrived warm, perfect spice level. Garlic naan is super tasty, love the flavor and cilantro. Would definitely order again"
"The Butter Chicken tasted more like an Italian take on Indian food than actually carry authentic flavour. Too much tomato, not enough Indian spices. The spice level is just chilli, again missing flavouring in the chicken. Not worth the price, but the restaurant discount made it acceptable. The plastic packaging was practically melting holding the hot curry, so please avoid if you're conscious about microplastic consumption.
Garlic Naan was alright but tad overpriced I feel.
However hygiene factor and freshness was good for Indian restaurants (tell you more tomorrow, haha). Portions were okay, I'll order again but try different dishes."

"Aloo tikki burger was fabulous, and getting french fries was a delicious surprise. though they had forgotten to salt them up. paneer starter's taste was amazing !! but the quantity was inadequate, which was quite disappointing."
"Mix Chilli Paneer Pakora Paneer Paratha was really good. Worth the money. Definitely would order again. Food was freshly made. Paneer Paratha size was big. Pani Puri was not up to my satisfaction."

"very good Butter Chicken . tender chicken if a bit bland, but tasty curry and good spice level"
"Butter Chicken is pretty good however a little on the sweet side. Garlic Naan is super yummy and fresh and Palak Paneer is good as well. Everything was packaged extremely well which is nice for delivery... however the Mango Lassi was slightly disappointing for the price it came in a tiny cup which wasn't even full.. but like the rest it was packaged extremely well so that's a plus!"

"This place makes the best bakedbread .it was soft and fluffy not rubbery and chewy. Flavors are fresh and packing was tight. I am not goingto any other pizza or curry pizza place anymore This place won my trust! . "
"The Curry Bread is actually fire. Taste of the Ranch wasn't disappointing either, theirs is actually good - coming from someone who judges every food place's ranch. And we'll say the portion size of the Bombay (Naan Tacos) was a flat 3 out of 5; taste-wise it is a 4.5 out of 5."

"Fresh, large portion, good spice level"
"Wow! This is a new late-night joint on DoorDash in the San Jose area, and I have to say I'm super impressed. Prices were really reasonable (for reference, the photos I've included are for half portions of each dish). Everything tasted very fresh, despite me ordering at the crack of dawn right before they closed.
The Vegetarian Soup tasted like a mix of all the veggies and spices they used during the day-- and I mean this in the best way possible. It's delicious in an unexplainable way.
The Veg Momo were excellent - not greasy, but they do have a bit of a kick (spicy). Nothing I found overwhelming or unpleasant, but just wanted to give a heads up.
Schezwan Fried Rice was also very good, not oily, nice spice level, lots of veggies in it.
I think what I liked best was that I felt great after eating the food; nothing felt heavy or greasy or artery-clogging-y. Oh and also they wrapped everything really well, which is always a plus.
Definitely will be ordering again!"

"Everything tasted good. The Dal Tadka was warm, tasted balanced & not too strong. The samosas are bigger than I prefer but everything inside was cooked perfectly. The papdi chaat is refreshing and tasty. The whole wheat chapati is the best!"

"I was not expecting the irani chai to be of such high quality, I hope they maintain it."
"The Paneer 65 Roll was flavorful and hearty. Crispy paneer pieces coated in a mildly spicy sauce, wrapped with fresh onions and a soft paratha — perfect balance of crunch, spice, and creaminess. You get that street-food vibe but in a cleaner, more consistent package.
The Irani Chai was the star for me — rich, creamy, and slightly sweet with a subtle hint of cardamom. It complemented the spicy roll perfectly and added that nostalgic café-style finish."

"Closest to home (hyd) food i have had here in the bay. Must try! I order from far but its worth it!portion is also just right and tastes freshly made.

"44. Chicken Karahi was a 2.5/5. It had a lot of oil just dripping out but most importantly lacked any rich flavor to go along with it.
Tandoori paneer was a 2/5. The paneer had very little flavor again.
The good thing was that the order was fast but that doesn't compensate for the taste.
I would recommend looking at similar dishes from Mantra India from Mountain view to see how you can improve both your dishes. They are my favorite."

"I looooove this pizza! It's got a nice little kick of spice from the chicken. The cilantro with it is good, too, and I'm not much of a cilantro person! I enjoy eating the pizza with ranch! My friends and I really like going here together, but I had a craving and HAD to order it!"
"I've had indian-inspired pizza before, and this is the best I've ever had. The flavor is incredible. Just a hint of spice, which helps me taste all the other flavors going on in there. I added fresh ginger to the Lamb Kabob Pizza and they did NOT skimp on it. The Chatpatta Aloo Pizza has just a hint of sweetness and tanginess, and you could definitely taste the difference in the sauces. The pieces of lamb kebob on the kebob pizza tasted fresh off the grill. Definitely planning to make this one of my regular places to order from!"
