My wife and I have gotten takeout from this place a few times and it’s been outstanding. Tonight we decided to dine in and we were just blown away at the atmosphere. It’s very nice clean inside and authentic feeling. The food is always amazing. This is the hidden gem that everyone should know about. The lamb vindaloo will knock your socks off!

An absolute spectacle of authentic Indian cuisine to be found at Punjab! We had the Chilli Momo , Chicken Tikki Masala , and a spread of rice and Naan. All were exceptional. However, the crown royale was the Chicken Tikki Pizza appetizer. The wealth of flavors is second to none, couple with a pleasant space and friendly servers. This is the spot for Indian craving!

Came in after passing by randomly for years. Went with a Lamb Korma lunch special, was blown away some of the best curry ever, Naan was light and fluffy as was the Basmati rice. Will be back definitely.

If you haven't visited The Punjab, you are missing out! The Indian cuisine if phenomenal, and their Himalayan cuisine is so good and rather unique. The owners have a long history in the food industry, specifically Indian and Nepalese cuisine. Try some Samosas for an appetizer, with Paneer Tikka Marsala or Palak Paneer with Naan as an entree. If you're interested in trying the Himalayan menu (you totally should!), the Paneer Fried Rice or Chow Mein is amazing!

Wow! This place is great!! The momo's were cooked perfectly and the coconut curry shrimp was fantastic. The restaurant has a fairly large bar area with comfortable seating and a good drink menu.The decor is really cool and has a very warm feeling. The staff is super nice and friendly. Definitely a must try!

The service was exceptional, the food and vibes were amazing. I went with my boyfriend and we got 2 raspberry coconut martinis, which were sooo good! It was just a quick stop but we stayed a while because we felt so comfortable. The food came out at a timely manner as well. For food, we got vegetable and lamb samosas (the sauces they give you are a great touch) and I got the tikki pizza while my boyfriend got the butter chicken. Again, both were great. I would definitely go visit again!!

Absolutely incredible experience! From the moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming and attentive. The food was bursting with flavor — every dish was perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. The Chicken Tikka Masala was creamy and rich! You can really taste the freshness and authenticity in every bite. Portions were generous, prices were fair, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Highly recommend this spot whether you’re craving Indian or Himalayan cuisine — easily one of the best restaurants in Rhode Island!

I recently visited an Indian-Nepalese restaurant in Rhode Island and had a wonderful experience. We ordered the Paneer Jhol Momos, Yellow Dal, and Kadai Paneer—and everything was flavorful and satisfying. The service was warm and attentive. The highlight for me was definitely the Paneer Jhol Momos -- they were absolutely delicious! The rich, spiced broth paired perfectly with the soft, savory momos. I would come back just for those! Overall, a great spot for authentic Indian-Nepalese flavors. Highly recommend!
