It's a take out place, the service is fast and they make it all fresh to order. I have been going here for the last year and it's the only palace I will buy my samosas. It's a family owned place.

This is by far the best fast Indian food I've had…read more I've yet to explore most of the menu but I've ordered the lamb curry, buttered chicken, samosas, white rice and regular naan bread. They give you pretty generous servings, great for families. A single serving could last a single person a good 3 meals. The naan is pretty big and always fresh. The spice is amazing and hits the spot every time and the fresh, fluffy naan compliments it well. Even after it's been refrigerated and microwaved again, it still holds its flavour. The price is very good for the portions. For buttered chicken, lamb curry, 2 pieces of naan, and white rice, that costed me $32.00 and has lasted about 3 days for my dad and myself (we didn't have it for every meal but we did have it every day). I'd recommend this to anyone wanting to explore some Indian cuisine or just craving some spice. Very good.

The chicken tikka masala is tender and very flavorful. We've also tried the malai chicken masala, butter chicken, paneer pakora, and chicken momos all of which were fantastic.

The staff are incredibly kind and were very helpful when we were making our selections. They offer a variety of spice levels to meet everyone's preferences. Service was a bit slow when we dined in but it seemed like they were managing a lot of carry out orders at the same time. The restaurant is clean and has what looks to be a full bar.

Across the way from La Jawab (a very good 4.25 star Tamil Indian restaurant also in the same large McKnight and 52nd Street plaza area), Punjaabi offers excellent pomfret fish (tandoori), very good vindaloo and garlic naan bread. They also serve an assortment of other veg and non-veg dishes. Returning there with my wife, together we dove into yet another tandoori pomfret, very fine chicken curry, and garlic naan/paratha with a good-tasting mango smoothie. Despite the restaurant name, it seems their chef can cook several styles, including Tamil from Chennai to Goa, up to Punjab and possibly other parts of the Indian sub-continent. Pretty cool, esp. as these styles all taste wonderfully different. Our waiters were forthcoming and easy to work with. Other customers were largely other Indians, a very good sign. With an attractive upbeat interior, cloth napkins and table cloth, and matching silverware, Punjaabi is distinctly a step up from most of the other Calgary Indian restaurants. But prices are still average per entree, hovering in the $13-15 range, with specialty dishes running up to $22. Leftovers provided 3 home meals this 2nd time, and as a test of the best chefs, the flavours and textures held up nicely. In a red/black art-deco interior likely inherited from the restaurant that recently closed before they took possession, it pipes through Bollywood-styled glitzy music on several flat screens. One slight downside is that there were no female serving crew: it's our opinion that women servers are far more attentively caring than the average man. For instance, to have our waiters play with their cell phones in plain view of customers is bad form: with water covering the handwashing sink area, washrooms need minor cleaning, and we had to call them over for payment and to arrange takeout. With my wife helping run a local pizza restaurant and 7.5 years of customer service and staff supervisory experience in the hospitality industry, it was plain to both of us that in general female servers are simply more with it than the average male. Hint ... hint? A closer alternative to the excellent Mehtab in Cochrane, Punjaabi is well worth it!
