Door dashed some food so I can't comment on the restaurant itself but I did enjoy the food. I got the masala chicken with rice and felt it was more bland than I am used to from other places. I am used to Indian food being very flavorful. I will saw the garlic naan was terrific and made the meal. I would give this place another try. read more

Pretty good food for the area, but service was a tad slow and they didn't give us water (they only had water bottles). That said, the selection and menu is pretty complete for a North Indian restaurant. read more

Excellent Indian food! I ordered delivery, so I can't speak to the service or ambiance; however, the food I ordered was delicious! I got the shahi paneer, basmati rice, and garlic naan. Everything was fresh and authentic! They are a bit pricey, but the serving sizes are generous. I easily had enough leftovers for another full meal. read more

Excellent food at cheap prices. Now my always go to. Beats Pintos and punjabi Tadka.

I ordered through Door Dash several times. I didn't look at reviews before I ordered, so the first time I ordered spicy and it was a little too spicy for me. But I got right back on that train the next day and ordered medium. I understand why this place is highly rated. Amazing food, so tasty! It is worth it. And they give you a decent amount of rice. read more

Place is fantastic. Granted I'm a white guy from Los Angeles, but I went with my boss who was born and raised in India. He said it was completely Legit and super impressive for an American Indian restaurant. Had the tandoori chicken. Off charts. They even got the spice level correct. You won't be disappointed as an Indian or a white guy :) read more

I was teetering between giving this place a 3 or 4 star review, so I felt generous and gave it a 4.. more like a 3.8 but who's counting. The place is pretty small as there is a one way parking in the back (was very sketchy) and there were only four tables inside. We went with the Chicken Tikka Masala (in a medium) and another chicken curry dish (forgot the name but started with a P and had some peppers, this was more oily and not a lot of curry). We also got two orders of garlic naan to split and those were the star of the show. They were glistening, fresh, crunchy yet fluffy, and full of garlic and cilantro. My tikka masala had a strong creamy tomato taste and was not spiced as I've had at other places. I ordered it medium and there really wasn't a hint of spice. The slices of chicken were so sparse and for a whopping $17, was not worth it. Portions were also quite small compared to other Indian restaurants. So, I was pretty disappointed in the flavors, amount, and price of the curry, but it was still a pleasant experience. Also, we were sat and given two bottles of Poland Springs water bottles--without asking--so we thought this was a kind gesture and their cups were all broken or something because usually, a cup of water was the norm. Well, after receiving the check, it looks like they charged us a dollar per bottle! Not a big deal but it would've been nice to be given a heads up that this wasn't a complimentary bottle of water haha. Oh well. Not my go to for Indian, but the naan definitely slaps. read more

Punjabi Kitchen - Chicken Tikka Masala Dinner (the bright orange one on left) and Chicken Pishori Dinner (dark, oily curry on bottom) with some Garlic Naan - Indian Near Me - West Springfield, Massachusetts

We tried Punjabi Kitchen a few years ago and were not impressed. At that time it seemed one dish we ordered had frozen vegetables and the chicken was tough in the other dish. However after speaking to the owner of a local Indian grocery who said it was the best Indian food around, we gave it another try. This time they got everything right. We ordered daal tadka, brinjal bharta and chicken pishori. The eggplant dish was good but the chicken and daal dishes were excellent. We have made the chicken pishori a must order when we dine there. While it is mostly a takeout place there are a few tables for dining in. The atmosphere could be improved by decluttering the area at top of stairs and having some booths to make it more private as the takeout delivery people are constantly coming and going. Finally, their prices are very reasonable. If you are looking for really good Indian food give Punjabi Kitchen a try. read more

Absolutely excellent. We ordered takeout-- samosas, chicken tikka masala, lamb korma, and naan. The staff was super friendly when we picked it up and service was super fast (ready in about 15 minutes despite peak dinner hours). Everything was stunning, and the samosa was still crispy after the drive home. And the samosa-- the pastry was perfectly delicate and thin, which is hard to find in my experience. My toddler demolished hers and specially loved the rice, which was prepared with care, just the right bite, not at all starchy (so you know they put the time in to wash it properly), and I love that they added cumin seed (I think it was cumin) to it. The chicken tikka masala was creamy and flavorful. I'm pregnant right now, with spicy foods causing immediate heartburn, which sucks because I'm absolutely craving some heat! All this to say that, having to get my food mild isn't my favorite but this masala was so scrumptious I didn't even miss it. My husband's lamb korma was warming and the lamb with richly flavored. And the naan, which we got plain, was fairly complex in flavor, had a lovely chew, and a great balance of sweetness and bitter from the light char. Will be returning, and I can't wait to try everything else on the menu. read more

The food was FABULOUS!! This is a tiny restaurant, 5 tables, 1 cook/owner, one waiter. The wait was just a tad long but not too bad, Once our food was ready it came out fast. Please realize that there is only one woman cooking her heart out for her customers! We arrived after 1:00 PM for lunch so parking wasn't awful. I enjoyed being served by a waiter who cared and an owner/cook who gives her heart to our food. Oh yeah, I'll be back! read more

Excellent & tasty food. Real North Indian food versus a lot of other restaurants that have a Southern flavor. Reasonable priced.

I'll admit I don't "know" Indian food but my lunch of Chicken Tikka Masala, Samosa, and Nan was delicious. Reasonable price for the quality and portions. I did take-out, just a few tables and they were full of happy families. read more

Great food , authentic and good portions . Very clean and well kept looking kitchen and surrounding area . Garlic naan very good here

Great Indian food. So easy to place an order and pick it up. I have had food from here several times. Never disappoints!!

I loved the food at this restaurant so much, that I asked them to cater my wedding. Typically, they don't do catering but they did it for us in October. We ordered the chicken tikka masala and the kheer. The service here was exceptional and they handled our big order with professionalism. All of our guests loved the food and we were very grateful. Hands down the best Indian restaurant I've been read more

Amazing fresh and delicious. Can't wait to try more items on the menu Great to eat in or takeout read more

I discovered this place when making plans to see a show at the Majestic Theater, right around the corner. I'm glad I did because I've been back many times since. Intense flavors and freshly made food. Atmosphere is nothing special, but we've noticed droves of Grubhub drivers coming and going, so this may be strategic. There are less than 10 tables in their dining room, and certainly space for more. Staff is always pleasant, whether eating in or dining out. read more

This place consistently has my favorite Indian food in town. I call it "Indian Comfort Food". It's Indian food that makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside, like my Indian mama made it (I'm painfully white). I don't know how else to describe it but that's what makes them consistently better than all the other options around. Someone back in that kitchen understands food. read more

Excellent, every single time. I look forward to doing business in the Springfield area, because once I set it up, I know where I'm going to get my food. I've ben known to open the bag and start eating something in the car on my way back to the hotel - it's so good, the aroma beckons me, I can't wait! Mostly a carry-out place, but informal seating is available. read more

I've ordered delivery twice now from Punjabi Kitchen and each time the food has been amazingly delicious. I've tried many of the other Indian restaurants around and to my palate this one beats them all. The saag paneer, the CTM, the Manchurian dumplings, all the veggie appetizers, the tandoori chicken, all have been so good it's like everything else I've had from other restaurants has been reheated in a toaster oven. The naan in particular: there's no disguising simple food done wrong, and this naan is so right, thick, chewy, fluffy. I can't wait to order again to explore other parts of the menu. I will note though that the spice levels are a bit higher than other places, and that's fine by me. I went with level 2 (of 4) and it was just right, spicy but not too spicy. If you're of a delicate constitution, start with level 1. read more

Very good Indian food for a fair price! Are very accurate with to go times! They have a fine in area but it's not too large although it does generally seem like a table will be available. read more

Worst Indian food I have ever tasted. Chef didn't know how to make biryani or malai kofta. Biriyani that I got was chill rice cooked with frozen vegetables. Malai Kofta should be made in malai stuffing but what I got had kofta with potato stuffing. It had three small koftas with watery gravy. Taste of the food was very bad too. Stay away from this place. read more

My first time having their food will be my last. I ordered chicken vindaloo, saag paneer, garlic naan and samosas. The food was cold, stale and tasteless. The garlic naan was definitely not made to order because it was cold and rubbery, the rice was cold and stale and the meats lacked flavor. In a traditional Indian dish, the meats are simmered in the sauce so the flavor is marinated into the protein. This restaurant appears to have cooked their protein in a rush because the flavor is only on the surface and meats were semi tough which is an indication that it isn't cooked very long, it's cooked enough to be coated in the sauce. The samosas also arrived cold which was interesting considering the restaurant is 5 minutes driving distance from my home so there is absolutely no reason it should arrive cold since they are usually pretty thick and deep fried. read more

I've never used this place for take out, I'm so glad I did! Wow. It was so delicious, I didn't pause to take a picture or even write down what I chose. It was chicken with rice... whoops. Looking forward to trying again! (Coworkers too) read more

I ordered Chicken Vindaloo. Indian spicy. It was a slow burn at first. Once it kicked in it was great! Best Vindaloo I've had in awhile. The naan was soft, but firm. The rice was cooked perfect. The chicken was well cooked and good quality. All came out hot. Service was excellent. If i lived in the area I'd eat here every night! read more

On our way for college drop off in Amherst. Found this on Yelp. Very good!! Authentic! Aloo gobi had great flavors

Excellent Indian food. Very clean, charmless decor. Efficient service. Fish pakora appetizer was outstanding.

My takeout was enough to make me believe in a higher power. It tasted like it was made by god, herself, in heaven, and the garlic naan especially was kissed by angels. read more

Was traveling in the area and ordered delivery. Ordered basic dal (medium spicy) naan & rice. Yellow dal tadka was very spicy. They forgot to include a side of onions that was specifically requested. Also did not include any paper plates bowls or forks, spoons, napkins etc Food was spicy but tasty. Naan was big and there was wnough for 2. read more

We got takeout, Chicken Tikki Masala, samosas and naan. It was delicious. My husband and I split the meal and it was enough for the two of us. We did have to wait a little bit for our food, but it was definitely worth it. read more

The BEST Indian food in West Springfield. I only ever get Take-Out so I cannot speak to the restaurant ambiance, but the food is absolutely delicious. Huge American-portions make this a thrifty take-out choice because one can eat 3 or 4 meals for under $40, making it as cheap if not cheaper than cooking at home! I recommend the chicken tikki masala (medium spicy) w/ garlic-cilantro naan + extra side of basmati rice (which helps me get an extra meal or 2) the containers are sturdy and make good reusable tupperware. The seasoned food lasts- it won't spoil quickly- I usually finish it within a week. And this dish is no less good re-heated on day, 2, 3 or 4! (not like a lot of restaurant food, which is great when first ordered but lackluster as leftovers). Punjabi Kitchen isn't always open when you need them. I've found them to be closed on Mon + Tues (super inconvenient) but I have found a few back up restaurants for when you NEED Indian food but the #1 Best is closed. I've also noticed that the dish I like isn't always the same, leading me to believe that there are different chefs on different nights, but I haven't figured out which chef/schedule I prefer- it is good to know that the dishes are prepared fresh each night, and not using some corporate formula. read more

We regularly order from Punjabi and get high quality, delicious foods! Service is always exceptional. We give 10 extra minutes for the order to be ready; they are very busy on any typical evening! read more

The food was amazing! I had the chicken tikka masala and the chicken Naan. Great size portions and amazing taste. I sat in the restaurant with a friend. The place is not that big it can probably fit about 5 family's of 4. The service was ok. I will definitely take it to go next time. Also the parking is almost not existent. read more
