The service was fast and efficient. The gent at the counter appears to be Punjabi, and doesn't speak English well, but he understands it just fine if you enunciate. Ambience is nearly non-existent, but it's in a truck stop so what would one expect?! Seriously. Folks don't go to truck stops for ambience or anything bougie. Now the food: I had the Goat Curry, which came with a solid portion of their Basmati rice with caraway seeds cooked into it. It is absolutely outstanding. Rich and slightly greasy the way good curry should be. A very rich brown curry sauce with loads and layers of flavor. Note for persnickety Americans: Goat anything is traditionally a bit greasy, and should be eaten with a bit of caution because there WILL be bits of bone, fat and well cooked gristle. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY NORMAL with goat anything. You've been warned fair and square!! There was a generous amount of meat in the 16 ounces of curry, and the flavor was absolutely amazing. There's almost no flour in this curry. Instead they thickened it with well cooked veggies, and the depth/breadth of flavor with layers was glorious.. The heat level, ordered stock standard, was moderate, but if you like seriously hot stuff just ask. Well done for $21.00 out the door. Had I known then what I know now, I would have also ordered some dosa and the chutney. I'll be back every time the company sends me through the area. No, I didn't ding them for the ambience because it in a truck stop. read more

Punjabi Dhaba - OUTSTANDINGLY WONDERFUL Goat Curry, Punjabi style - Indian Near Me - Yreka, California

One in five American truck drivers is a Punjabi Sikh -- a fact that makes perfect sense the moment you pull into Punjabi Dhaba inside a Mobile gas station at the foot of Mt. Shasta, halfway between Portland and the Bay Area to inhale plate of samosas, chicken tikka, and washed down with chai. Burly Punjabi truck drivers walking in and out of this place for a taste of home and fuel for going the distance. read more

This place is seriously a hidden gem! I was born and raised in the Bay Area and had access to all the different types of food from all cultures I could ever want. Fast forward and now I live in a place where there aren't many options. We stopped at this gas station on the way to Oregon to use the restroom and I saw the small Punjabi Dhaba in the corner. I picked up a couple samosas and they were divine! So much that on our way back from Oregon five days later we made sure to stop here for lunch. The second time we got two chicken wraps and four samosas. The food is delicious, has the perfect spice, and their chutneys are very flavorful. I also thought the wraps were such a smart idea since most people that stop here are probably traveling thru. read more

This is definitely a hidden gem! I do DoorDash and have gotten multiple orders from here, they all smell absolutely delectable. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The only thing I've had the chance to try (so far) is their hot tea which is super delicious and comforting. I look forward to experiencing the taste behind the wonderful aromas. :) read more

Tiny little spot in Yreka, window located in truck stop. Since we live in OR and drive to CA often, this was an unexpected delight on our drive and really gave us another option to burger joints and fast food. We had the chicken tikka masala and the Dahl. It was great! We will be back! What would make it much better tho is if the tables were cleaned so that sitting down to eat a quick meal was more pleasant. Although the tables were inside, they were unkept. read more

Absolutely delicious. We stopped for truck stop takeout and ended up ordering FOR HERE. Tandoori chicken might be a whole chicken... seriously... my husband ate his full and still had enough for three more meals. I ordered the chicken tikka and YES! Absolutely perfectly spiced. I have enough for leftovers, too. The garlic naan was garlicky and delicious. Friendly staff, super helpful with our order. If we're ever through here again we will definitely stop. read more

I have just learned about this place. I have been twice and had the chicken naan wrap both times. It was delicious and more than enough. They served wonderful sauces with the wraps. I think the prices are fair. mA read more

House blended spices, quality ingredients, good portions, and fair prices. So delicious!

Food's amazing, had naan chicken wrap and garlic naan for a NON indian food eater it was delicious

delicious food! especially for a truck stop! the guy at the front made great suggestions. loved it all!

It's carry out, so realized when we got home, oops, they didn't put the naan in for two orders. The assorted fried veggies were burnt. The chicken biryani was good but probably four bite size pieces of pollo in there...all in all, won't go back. You should call ahead if you're in a hurry, took about 40 minutes for the order to be ready. read more

I did take out for dinner for my wife and myself and it was very very tasty and delicious.

This hidden truck stop gem is serving authentic homestyle Punjabi (North Indian) food, and it couldn't be better! We had Samosa Chaat, Tandoori Chicken, Aloo Paratha, and Goat Curry. The portions were huge, and each dish was top notch. My family is Punjabi, and the food here reminds me of home cooked food, rather than usual too-creamy restaurant food. So, not only is the food great, but it's healthy and not overly heavy! read more

Punjabi Dhaba - Tandoori Chicken, Samosa Chaat - Indian Near Me - Yreka, California

Ambience is truck-stop takeout, but the Desi family in front of me in line, stopping on the way back to San Francisco, bought extra to bring home to their daughter. It is that good. Fair warning: The vindaloo --- even on medium spicy --- is not messing around. read more

If you can find even something tasting close to Indian food in the middle of nowhere I call that a win. This place is surprisingly not bad at all coming from another Indian. If I was to rate the authenticity to a real Indian food this place would hit 8/10. Highly recommended it if you in the town or driving by read more

Oh my god! This food is delicious. Fit for the Vedic pantheon themselves. I was lured here by other yelp review and find myself astounded at the generosity of the order. We got pakora for the app, paneer tandoori, and goat biriyani, an order of garlic and regular naan. It could have fed 4 or 5 people. Additionally, there was a large container of yogurt, tamarind and chutney. The price was also fantastic. Don't be fooled by the truck stop exterior, if your passing by - get this food. read more

The food is wonderful. The new owners are amazing. My daughter wanted Indian food for her birthday and they went above and beyond for her! Thank you!! read more

Service was fine food was okay. It is in a gas station. Not great ambiance. If you want more than fast food. Try something else. read more

Hello! I can't find where to leave a review so I'm doing it here. I am in town from Crescent City CA (no Indian food there) and picked up your Chk Tikka Masala and Veg Korma with Naan and mint chutney... even spoke to the owner... amazing! Delicious! I can't tell you how happy I was to find you while I was here!!! 5 + stars and as I said to the owner, PLEASE open a restaurant in Crescent City!!! I would be your #1 customer . read more

Flavorful. Kind people. Never thought I'd have food this fresh and tasty at a truck stop

Delicious authentic Indian food. Great flavors and the naan was perfect. Everything was fresh, great customer service too.

I have come here a few times and food was good enough to come back however my last visit was pretty bad. I got there 10:30am and was informed that they could not make me mutter paneer because it was not yet 11 o'clock. I was informed I need to order breakfast food just made me excited. I asked for a dosa. I was informed that they don't make that breakfast dish the man working suggested I get a roadie I've never had one before and asked if it was gluten free and he said yes it was so I agreed to order it when it came 20 min later I was surprised to get a flat bread made of wheat.... not gluten feee at all . I had already wasted 20 minutes, but I could've been driving on I five. You guys really need to hire people who speak proper English and who know what the heck is in the food they are serving. read more

My husband and I have come here for years and we recently had a horrible experience. We ordered the Matar Paneer, Butter Chicken, and some extra garlic Naan. He went to pick it up, noticed the Matar Paneer was missing but we in fact paid around 35ish for everything so he went back in and they REFUSED to do anything about it. We hadn't even left the parking lot. I am astounded, it was more than an easy thing to fix what we already paid for. I have always recommended this place and no longer will I do so. There's an absolutely delicious Indian Food place in Mount Shasta that we think everyone would enjoy just as much. read more

The channa masala was wonderful! So fragrant and flavorful. Highly recommended. Don't be thrown off by the restaurant being located within a truck stop. Go in! read more

We are staying at the holiday Inn down the street and didn't feel like putting all our motorcycle gear in to go find dinner. Went on Yelp and what do you know. Excellent Indian food at the truck stop food court. I ordered the tandoori chicken tikka masala and OMG it's so good. Took a little time to get my order because all the truckers call their order in before they stop so they were busy. So worth the wait. Even turned my husband on to some yummy Indian food and he loved it. Thanks for the great food. read more

It's in Yuba City. We ordered several dishes and everything was yummy! Their buffet isn't open yet. Also the prices are super affordable ! Can't go wrong with any dish!! read more

An amazing oasis of Punjabi Indian food found in Yreka. Just think - if it wasn't for Punjabi truck drivers, y'all wouldn't have access to this level of Indian food in Siskiyou county. If you're scared of spicy food, just tell 'em, they'll mellow it out for you. Service is fast, servings are large, the ambience, well, what do you expect, it's a truckstop. read more

Great food! These guys are eager to please. The food is as authentic Punjabi as it gets. Sit down eating is limited.

Best Indian food in town! I highly recommend! They also give generous portions! The service was great too, all around a great place

The food was not very good and expensive for what we got the chicken tiki marsala was way too sweet and so was the butter chicken way too sweet and not enough chicken at all read more

Everything was very good. I had chicken saag and garlic naan with salt lassi and ras malai. read more

Fantastic tandoori chicken. The vegetable biryani tasted like maybe they used frozen vegetables? All the dipping sauces in the yogurt sauce as were also fantastic. Wonder if maybe it was an off day. Will be back in the area in about a week and will give them another try. read more
