    Our request for a quiet table was definitely attended to. The service was excellent. They were very responsive in addressing our allergy concerns and communicating about ingredients in various foods. The appetizers and main courses were served hot and in sequence (rather than all at once, or close to each other as often happens in other places.). The wait staff checked in periodically, but not annoyingly, to see if all was well or we wanted/needed something else. We truly enjoyed our time and the food.

    I'm an Arlington resident and my family and I love Punjab. Food, service, and ambiance are all very nice for a local, reasonably-priced, family restaurant. I give it only 4 out of 5 stars because I'm like the teacher that believes that you really have to be mind-blowing to get an A+. But really, this is a nice place.

    The service was terrible but the food was delicious. The hostess area is too crowded and disorganized. Our waitress took nearly 10 minutes to greet us after we were seated. She failed to return with beverage menus or water, after we asked several times. We did not receive the same bottle of water or table sauces as our neighbors until after our appetizer had arrived. I’ve never been to such a beautifully decorated restaurant with amazing food that suffers from the worst service staff possible.
