"Visited this restaurant with family with an expectation of normal Punjabi cuisine. But starting our 1st sip of tomato shorba to having tikkas, Kalmi Kabab, tandoori pineapple, and then main course feast of chicken Changezi, butter masala for kids.. For each of this, the rating is all 5 star. With many visits to Punjabi restaurant in Bangalore, I rate this one as one of the top one. All thanks to the wonderful staff there for such a wonderful service."

"Hoy Punjab, nestled within a hotel premises, offers a vibrant dining experience that’s a treat for the taste buds. The restaurant’s location inside the hotel adds a unique charm, though it’s not a standalone spot, which might surprise some visitors. The ambience is decent, with comfortable seating, making it a pleasant place for a meal, but it’s the food that truly steals the show. The food was nothing short of exceptional, easily deserving five stars for taste. We tried the palak chaat, dahi kebab, and Amritsari kulcha paired with lassi, all of which were bursting with authentic Punjabi flavors. The main course, featuring paneer and kofta, was equally delightful and came in satisfying portions. However, the starters, including the kulcha, were disappointingly small for the price, making it feel less value-for-money despite the incredible taste. Service was average, with staff being polite but not particularly standout, and a nominal service charge was included. The high prices paired with small starter portions were a drawback, but the quality of the food makes it worth trying at least once. I’d recommend visiting to experience the fantastic flavors yourself and decide if it’s worth a repeat. Four stars for the outstanding taste and decent experience, tempered by the pricey, small-portioned starters."

"I tried their signature dish butter chicken and butter naan.( had 1st bite and then i felt like i was flying in air with such a silky texture of the butter chicken sauce was incredibly outstanding. ) Kalmi kebab as signature starter. (Juicy and tender chicken, blend of milk masala was out of the box lovely n mindblowing) Both were 5/5 for taste. Above appreciation could be because of i was hungry at that point of time, but still taste was awesome. No complaints. Lovely restaurant. Must visit at least once. My god, that was mind blowing and awesome taste. Highly recommended."
