We went here because we were pressed for time. It was a terrible experience. The table was dirty. The mug with the drink was stained. The plate arrived dirty. The order was taken wrong. Things were forgotten on our order. When the food did arrive there was a hair in it. They did nothing. We paid the bill and left but would NEVER go back. read more

Punjabi Dhaba - Palak Paneer - Indian Near Me - Hicksville, New York

i tried this local indian restaurant Punjabi Dhaba over the weekend. it was a small shop with a handful of tables and had a family-business feel, serving authentic punjabi food. i tried the special thali, which came with four curries, rice, yogurt, a sweet, and three roti. overall, all of the food was exceptional and had a medium spice level. the hospitality was great, and everyone who worked there was very kind and welcoming. i also tried the mixed vegetable paratha, which had paneer inside as well. it was a very delicious dish, and for the price, i think it was an incredible deal. i also tried the aloo tikki chaat, which had an incredible crunch, and the chole it came with was one of my favorites. it was a very warm, comforting, and spicy dish. i would definitely recommend this place. the service was quick, and i had my food in around 20 minutes. read more

Punjabi Dhaba - thali - Indian Near Me - Hicksville, New York

Easily a hidden gem of Hickesville! This place is excellent! Service is on the slower side but the food is incredible. Also they give you enough food for 4 people at such a cheap price. You are easily transported to authentic Punjabi Indian restaurant in India and it gives similar vibe. They give you chaas (buttermilk) instead of water like a traditional Indian dhaba. The curries are flavored like India without the sweet American taste. The yogurt in the papri chaat was excellent. The naan was good (not the best) but I loved coming here. I cannot wait to come back! read more

Solid hole-in-the-wall vegetarian Punjabi spot. I tried the chole bhature and amritsari kulche. The Kulcha was flavorful and well stuffed. The bhature was not as good as other places. It tasted like they added yeast to leaven it. Chole was good as was and not too rich. The pickle, onions, and the yogurt were all standard. Misthi (sweets) variety were good too! read more

The food is very fresh and delicious. Owner and servers are very friendly. The Sweets are very fresh. It's a must try place.

Great food especially the thali. The owner is really amiable. Come here for authentic Punjabi taste read more

The hospitality is great. The owner is so welcoming. Welcome drink is not just regular water, its lassi as Panjabi families host at home in a steel jug and unlimited supply accompanied by steel glasses and food served in stainless steel plates. Very homely environment. The food was great. Papdi Chaat was so delicious. Kulcha was well stuffed and crispy up to the mark not burnt. Perfectly buttered and well done. We ordered Kala chana which was super hit among the family, the gravy was so good and a very unique taste. Thali was equally good and portion size was perfect for 2 people. Sweets were excellent. This is a hidden gem in Hicksville among so many restaurants we just happen to be there. Wondering why we haven't discovered this place before. While paying bill the owner saw my daughter in scrubs and ask what position she is into medical profession and I mention she is a physician, he said we are so proud of our daughters and offered sweets without any charge to her. Very polite and humble man by the counter. read more

Authentic Punjabi food. The real deal! Old school! Just like Grandma's cooking and the great coincidence and beauty here is that the very sweet matriarch is indeed the amazing chef. Quality that stands out. A few competitors have actually not been so hot in the last 18 months. The prices for the quantity are fantastic. Had lentils here 2 months ago that were really good and seasoned and garnished just right. 4 weeks ago I got a pound of fried veggie fritters or pakoras with some hot tea. Perfection! Post heavy workout today got the Shahi Paneer or homemade cheese( soft) cubes in this rich creamy sauce with tomatoes, onions and cashew nuts. Wow!!! Check out the photo. The dishes are old school and real. Not been modified or commercialized or diluted. Love it!! You can taste it!!! Take my word and my roots and well traveled palate for it. Just pop in and see and experience this for yourself. This restaurant is adjacent to the Delco Plaza on Broadway about 200 yards south of Old Country Road on the east or northbound side. Covid compliant. Super clean. Great traffic and the kitchen is constantly preparing more food. Authentic!! read more

Punjabi Dhaba - Homemade cheese( paneer) with cashews, onions, tomatoes and heavy cream that come together and it's magic in your mouth!! - Indian Near Me - Hicksville, New York

Very good authentic food. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Make sure to try the sweets.

Always a great paratha served with whipped butter and salty lassi. My special Partha is the "Jaan Parathas" - Aloo with onions, coriander, ginger, and green chilli. You can make any Parthas a "Jaan Parathas" by adding in fresh coriander, ginger and green chillies. It's mouthwatering delicious. read more

Punjabi Dhaba - A "Jaan Paratha" special ... - Indian Near Me - Hicksville, New York

We went to try just the Jaan Parathas and they were quite good. We went at a lean time and got the paratha pretty quick. I liked the taste. Tried a samosa too and it was good. This is a place to try to get some good vegetarian Punjabi food. read more

The food was delicious, I ordered the choley bhature and I was not disappointed. The achar and onions were a great touch. The owner is a Amazing person very polite and generous. read more

After placing my order, I arrived for pickup at the time they said (allow 40 mins) no problem. I get to the store and the young girl cannot find my order, after some searching in the back they asked for a high price, I questioned again if thats my order, and to my dismay, it was the wrong order they were trying to give me. I decided to give the girl another opportunity, and I placed the order again, and she came back two more times with confusion. Last she asked me to pay, and I decided to pay, immediately she shouted at me for paying the wrong amount. I kept my cool until she raised her voice, I got my money back and walked out. Do not buy from here if you expect any sort of customer service,make sure they get your order in writing, and have them repeat it back. read more

The waiting time was too long and you had to pay for water. They did not have any nonveg items and the prices were very high but the quality was low. It took a whole 30 minutes to deliver a single meal read more

Excellent parathas and amritsari kulche. Very good service. Sweets are great. Will definitely come back to try more dishes on the menu. Must try read more

There food is amazing but their service sucks big time. They would take your order on the phone and hang up without confirmation. If you go there you would have to wait for your order more then 30-40 mins. Food is great but service level is Zero read more

Minimal unfriendly service, mediocre Punjabi food, perhaps the worst lassi (looks and tastes like cloudy water) in NYC, but excellent chapati, all with the ambiance of a dingy joint. It is awful that there are so few Indian vegetarian restaurants in Queens and that most of them serve subpar versions of that cuisine. read more

I got rasgulle from them yesterday. they smell bad and testes sour. Not good at all. They should not sell bad and sour stuff. read more

Absolutely delicious and authentic food!! Can't find better Punjabi food in the area. Highly recommend the thali and amritsari kulche, but can't go wrong with anything on this menu! read more

Delicious and authentic food. Their saag is very delicious and so is the milk cake! Went for lunch on a busy Saturday afternoon, service was a little slow but the food made up for it. If you are looking for authentic Punjabi food go to Punjabi Dhaba. read more

HORRENDOUS. The saag was an off color green, extremely spicy and paste consistency. Almost no paneer. Does not come with rice.

Great service and food! We came here for fathers day and had a great time. The service was excellent; the staff was attentive and gave great recommendations read more

Amazing food, really good service and super attentive. Run by very friendly people. Best food in Long Island / New York and will definitely come back read more

No good food . Sweets are awful . Very slow service.ambiance is average. I will not recommend this place at all.

It's a whole in a wall restaurant holds about 12 people with a few tables to dine in. Now the kitchen is big where all the dancing with the star's chefs are preparing some feast for you as if you were the bridegroom supper with the most fabulous exquisite taste of brianni , Cheney sauces most delicious samosas all different kinds that you'll leave convinced that'll be your new dwelling for Asian cuisine of India. I enjoyed it I live 30 miles away and when I'm around this restaurant, I make sure to make a pit stop. Pig out all the spices of my heart desires. Not costly at very reasonable prices. In fact I bought $60 worth of different dishes to go and vacuum freeze so I don't have to worry about driving 30 miles. read more

Pretty decor and fast service. The music is great and I liked that they served the food authentically, by using cute tin cups and plates. I especially enjoyed the palak paneer and tandoori roti. :) read more

If you're looking for authentic Punjabi food that is high quality yet affordable, this is the place. Will definitely come back!

This is our go to spot, my family has tried many other restaurants over the years but nothing beats this spot. The management is so welcoming and makes you feel at home! read more

Came in for a quick bite and some chai, had a great experience. Service was really nice, they were super helpful and the food was awesome. Edit: I did this review to get a free dessert since it said on all the tables that you can get a free dessert if you give them a good review. The food was good but unfortunately I did not get the free dessert because for some reason I had to pay for my "free dessert" even after I showed them this review. But whatever. read more

Punjabi Dhaba - Papri Chat, Dahi Bhalla Chaat, Vegetable Samosa (2 pcs.) and garlic naan - Indian Near Me - Hicksville, New York

The food is good but will definitely put you to sleep. In my opinion that is a good thing. The restaurant pays tribute to the late Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala through a wall decor which in my opinion is so beautiful and unique that puts this eatery in a higher light. The staff is very nice except for this young girl who seems to have an attitude issue. Otherwise I'd recommend this experience. read more

Food was good and prepared for you, so don't be in a rush to eat. Did not feel in was worth the prices.

Home style fresh meal which is very very reasonably priced, there are just 5 tables inside as it is small place, we went on a Sunday and there was only one waiter so service was not the fastest but at the same time it was not that bad either. Owners are nice and soft spoken, always trying to help the customers. Overall I wouldn't say food was extraordinary but it felt authentic and homely. Would recommend this if you are in this area. read more

The food was nice, but the service was TERRIBLE, took 45 minutes for our food to come. Understaffed, (Maybe they are greedy to not pay people) Raise the salary of the Young lady that is working there, she is the only one who was serving the whole restaurant.(The restaurant could be greedy and dont want to pay people) but I HOPE they RAISE THE SALARY OF THE YOUNG LADY THERE. read more

At Punjabi Dhaba. They shouldn't use name Punjabi Dhaba as the very basic fundamental food of a Dhaba is SAAG and they're so bad at it. Worst Saag ever as if they don't even know what a Punjabi Saag is. We asked if they make good fresh Saag. Answer was an enthusiastic yes! Turned out Makki Roti is equally bad as Saag. Now tried assorted pakoras. They're good. Service is so slow. Very basic place. read more
