We ordered take out for five of us. My husband is Indian and we have high standards for Indian restaurants. We were extremely pleased and impressed with the variety of dishes we ordered. The tandoori chicken was moist and flavorful. My favorite was the mango chicken, a bit sparse on the amount of meat to sauce, but wow! - so unusual and tasty. We also ordered Palak Paneer- excellent with nice sized pieces of paneer. Dal Tadka - mild but flavorful; Chana Masala - perfect balance of spices; and Eggplant Bharta- wonderfully smoky and delicious (a hidden gem!!) All the breads were fresh, tasty and generous. We especially liked the Tandoori Roti. If you have never had Amritsari Kulcha, try it out here! It comes with containers of delicious tamarind and mint chutney. We will definitely return and eat in sometime soon. My husband said the restaurant was very welcoming and looked very nice. Thank you for an exceptional meal!!!! Crystal Lal read more

A great place have lunch or dinner the dinning area is spacious and comfortable. The staff are very friendly like family they are accommodating to everyone especially those unfamiliar with south Asian cuisine. Definitely try the Mango Lassi you'll be coming back again and again. The only downside is the limited street parking but it's worth the trip. read more

I brought my parents here to try Indian food for the first time, and I was nervous for two reasons - (1) my parents are conservative eaters and I was afraid they wouldn't like it, and (2) I myself had never eaten at this restaurant before. Either way, I was nervous they wouldn't have a good meal. But I held my breath and hoped that the reviews I'd read beforehand were accurate. For the most part, they were. The garlic naan was incredible. My parents went silent when they first tried it, then quietly maneuvered the basket toward themselves while leaving rice for the rest of us. The chana masala and chicken tikka masala were also spot on - rich, saucy, and flavorful. Our salmon tandoori announced its own arrival to our table as big chunks of delicate meat on a sizzling platter. The larger pieces weren't completely cooked through, but we just let them sit on the hot flatware for a minute or two more. Spice babies, beware. We requested 'mild' as the spice level for all our orders because medications have changed my mom's sensitivity to spice. Even then, the heat crept invisibly onto her palate. "I don't know where it's coming from," she said, fanning her mouth. Even as a spice lover, I could detect there a thrum of baseline spice in most of our meals. You might want to temper the spice the way we did - by ordering a mango lassi. I've yet to meet a mango lassi I didn't like, Punjab's included. Here, they include a drizzle of something jammy along the sides of the glass. I didn't think it necessary (the lassi by itself is already fantastic!), but great for those who like their drinks sweet and photogenic. Inside, the restaurant space feels like what I'd call 'upscale casual'. It's nice - in fact, it's a lot nicer than a lot of Indian restaurants I've been in. But it's not the kind of 'nice' that makes you feel like you can't grab a meal here in your sweatpants. There's no dedicated parking lot, but there are a good number of spots along the nearby side streets (just pay attention to street signs that designate no parking days and times). read more

Four of us went for an early dinner on Sunday. We all absolutely loved it! The staff are really nice and the portions are large. Most importantly, the food is excellent. I see where others have written that even the mild can be too spicy, but we didn't at all find that to be the case. We got garlic naan for the table (great!) and also cheese naan (I didn't like that as much, but my sister loved it). I got the lamb tikka masala and have only good things to say about it. I don't remember ever having lamb so tender. Oh and we got the mango lassi with raspberry sauce, which was unusual and tasty. We'll definitely be back to try more dishes. read more

Punjab is my go to a place for Indian food as it is always consistently delicious. They have a diverse menu and are always willing to customize dishes to meet your need. The restaurant itself is quite comfortable and nicely decorated, and just like the quality of the food, the service is always consistently good. read more

During my maternity leave I decided to take advantage of the BOGO deals this place was offering via UberEats. I ordered the samosas, aloo tikki and mango Lassi. The samosas and aloo tikki were both very fried yet filling. The heat from both food items worked well with the mango lassi. read more

Nice atmosphere. Such great food and I've eaten Indian food all over the nation and even in other countries. Best mango lassie.

Amazing food. The owner came to our table and recommended the most delicious dish. A little intimidating if you don't the food. Waiter was super helpful and directed me to the chicken tandoori. Sooo good!! The naan bread was really good. Very nice dining experience. Highly recommend. read more

I had heard so much about Punjab In Mineola Cusine Resturant. So today we decided to try this restaurant. I will never go back again to this place. Ambience is good, each dish quite pricy, served pre-cooked, only microwaved heated food within couple of minutes after placing the order. read more

Amazing food, amazing employees!! Comfortable atmosphere, polite, friendly and professional service, absolutely delicious food

I love Indian food and this was some of the best I've had. We had malai kabob, navaratan korma, and paneer tikka masala. All three were excellent and we had enough to take home for another meal. I will move this to the top of my Indian restaurants. read more

I stopped in for a quick lunch. The food was very good but a bit salty. I am used to food being salty when I eat out but this was a bit saltier. Maybe I'm more sensitive as I don't cook with salt. The entrance is not handicap accessible. Parking is difficult. I would recommend the restaurant. Prices are reasonable and service attentive. There was a repetitive music/chant/prayer in Punjabi. Not terribly surprising for a restaurant named Punjab in Mineola. I was fine with the background music but my friend found it annoying. read more

We ordered take out from here recently. We ordered Chicken samosas, chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, chicken biriyani. Everything was delicious. Quality and quantity is great. Highly recommend this place. read more

I normally go to only one restaurant in Hicksville that I love. Today I was in the Mineola area and needed to order lunch before 11, and this was the only Indian restaurant open. Was super hesitant to try a new place.. but oh my gosh it was sooo good! This place blew my original place out of the water. This is one of the best Indian restaurants I've had. I wish I lived closer, cause I would be a regular. I will say, I wish the restaurant had more parking. Other that that, great food. Had the paneer mahkni and naan bread. read more

This review is for take out- i ordered a couple of dishes to try out: the Aloo Paratha, the Aloo Tikki chaat, the Malai Kofta and a mango Lassi, along with mango chutney... and although i chose mild, they were too spicy for me to eat. I have enjoyed the flavors without the heat, and so i wonder if they even look at the uber eats notes!!! Also, for one person it was like $60. I will call a friend and give it away to not waste food. read more

Horrible!!!! Ordered Aloo Gobi and asked for it to be mild. Why did I ask? It was so hot that I couldn't eat it. Totally unenjoyable.

Amazing food and service. We love this place! Portions are great and quality of food is great! You will not be disappointed! We do take out from here very often today we went to the restaurant for a special birthday and everything was perfect. Thank you so much! read more

Got food delivered from the restaurant and everything was very good. We tried Amritsari Kulcha, Laccha Paratha, Kadhi Pakora and Baigan Bharta. Each and every dish was perfectly cooked and seasoned. They made it the authentic way and I am so glad that they did. The spice level was also just what we asked for. Cannot wait to eat here next time we are in the area. read more

This place is my new go to take out spot for amazing Indian food!! Food is abundant for the price and prepared with the right amount of spice and aromatics. I have one sausage that can't handle spice so when I asked for his dish to be mild, they made it with zero spicy heat. I know that sounds odd to say but a lot of places think mild should still have a tiny hint of spice. I appreciate that they understand what the true meaning of mild is :) I also appreciate very much that when you say make something spicy, they deliver it with a KO and there's still no lack in flavor! We only ordered a few dishes this go around but next time there will be more! The butter chicken was simple and great, their Malai Kofta was so so good and the kofta balls were so melt in your mouth soft and big too! We all LOVED their Karahi chicken!! The spices and flavors are exactly how I remember them when I had it for the very first time in India, brought back a lot of good memories for me. Plus everything the next day tasted even better! We'll have to go in and try eating there next time but for now it is definitely my go to take out spot on LI for the best Indian cuisine! read more

Punjab in Mineola's Butter Chicken is a dream, I mean you will dream about it and probably order next day if you didn't have leftovers left which btw always taste just as amazing. The rice, the sauces, all the curries are so well done and you can tell these chefs like what they do, the food speaks for itself. My favorite Indian restaurant hands down, always a great experience when we order for delivery, so happy to have found this spot! read more

January 2021: So happy to discover this restaurant as a great takeout option while I'm avoiding dining indoors. Since March 2020 I have been spending most of my time on Long Island and have had the opportunity to check out more Long Island restaurants. The restaurant is just off Jericho Tpke and easy to miss while driving if you aren't specifically looking for it. There isn't parking in front but both times I came here for takeout I was able to park on the side street just past it. The inside is very beautiful and bright with lovely furniture. The tandoori chicken, shrimp curry, chicken tikka masala and naan are all delicious and generous portions. I also treated myself to one of my favorite treats - a mango lassi. If you order ahead online via the restaurant's website, you are taken to Beyond Menu and there is automatically a discount taken from your order. read more

Had a delicious dinner here with my family. Got the peas with paneer and asked for mild. It definitely still had a kick that my mom and I enjoyed but my 7 year did not haha. The navratan kourma is some of the best I've ever had. Absolutely delicious and recommend it. We will definitely be back!! read more

If I were stuck on deserted island for the fear of my life, and I could only eat one thing... it would be their paneer makhani. I simply can't get enough read more

Great food. I had the lamb tikka masala, which I have never had before. Tender and well spiced. I had it through door dash and it came promptly. This is my go to Indian food in the Garden City area. read more

Like wow! This place was sooooo good. When you have Indian friends you tend to have higher standards and this placed nailed it. Ordered butter chicken. OMG it was perfection. Perfect balance of buttery and creamy. Chefs kiss! The garlic naan!!! Another perfection. Soft and garlic and fresh! It was FRESH! Also ordered samosa chaat. It was so good. Recommend this at restaurant and not take out, it gets soggy but it still was really good. This is my fave place! I've tried bunch of places in Hicksville, new hyde park, bellerose. This places beats all of that! Highly recommend! read more

Stopped by for lunchtime with a friend. The service was great and the food was another level! I ordered the lamb korma and my friend god the chicken tikka masala. The spices complimented each other very well and the lamb was tender and had a good amount of chunks in the sauce. Had it with a side of basmati rice and garlic naan. The restaurant was beautifully decorated and it was quiet when we went in. Wish I lived closer to come more often! read more

My friends and I ordered Jassi's for delivery on a Friday night. We liked our dishes, though I'm not sure I'd say it's amazingly better than other Indian food I've had, especially for the price. Our dishes we requested to be spicy did not seem to be extra spicy. However, the tikka masala and lamb korma were pretty classic. My goat jhalfrezi was good, though it was a bit tough to eat with all the bones. I wish there had been a bit more meat. Our mango lassi wasn't included, but that might have been the delivery person's issue. I did get refunded once I requested through the delivery app. The veggie samosas were on the larger side and well cooked. read more

Ordered delivery. Easily the best Indian food in the area! Their portions are huge as well.

Warm welcome greeted us as we entered the door. Nice decor, clean and full bar. We had never been here before and wandered upon it because of Yelp. We ordered the Vegetable Pakora and Vegetable Samosa. Both fried well and tasty. Enjoyed the Tandoori Shrimp and Lamb Chops for entrees. Next time we'll have it spicy. We also had garlic Naan!

Big portions but everything was way too salty. We got the palek paneer and lamb korma. The naan was decent. Maybe it was an off day?
