Sardaarji - Flavours Of Punjab

Unclaimed

Service is efficient and we were quickly placed. Went on Saturday for lunch.. Not many people inside. Dishes took about 15m to arrive. Very tasty. Bread was yummy and hot from the oven. Curries tasted good and left us wanting more. The downside here is the lack of parking. Good luck finding a spot. You can always park at the council multistorey opposite the main lebuh downing road. Another downside is the toilet is upstairs. The stairs are steep. Hard to get there if you have old people in your party. Remember to pay using grab for their discounts.

Penang despite being renown for Indian cuisine, they are mostly South Indian especially Tamil. This is my 1st time in a Punjabi restaurant and I find the taste quite interesting. The butter chicken is creamy and the naan cheese bread are soft and done just right; not burnt. The vege has a very unique taste. Overall it is not spicy at all. Will be back for more.

I came here like most others due to the Michellin Guide rating. I ordered the Butter Chicken set. Here's my ratings per item. 9/10 Butter Chicken Curry : A plethora of different notes for spice and definitely unique compared to hundreds of butter chicken curries I've had throughout the world. This was a pleasant surprise and definitely was a good experience. I did notice holes in the chicken, maybe from being skewered. I thought maybe they had used tandoori chicken already cooked earlier throughout the day..? The flavor was not off however, or maybe the spices merely veiled this. I'm not necessarily dissatisfied as long as it was fresh. 7/10 Naan : The naan was also unique, with more than just garlic on top. Wasn't sure what else it was to be honest, some kind of spices? The flavor was great, but I personally found it not crispy enough. The bottom was a tiny charred, so I know it had been made traditionally, but it tasted a bit soggy. I fear maybe it was reheated. Overall, I did have a positive and unique experience. This means a lot, after having been through hundreds of restaurants eating their butter chicken curry set. I'm sure Sardaarji can do better if they just improved the freshness of their naan and the chicken inside their curries. It would have been a perfect meal, otherwise.

Delicious food and good service. No alcohol served. Get the Pani Puri appetizer. Totally fun and worth it!! Tandoori chicken was so flavorful. I really don't know what other reviews had a problem with. We had a very positive experience.
