Top-Notch!
I had the opportunity to dine at Punjab this past Friday.

It is the "parent restaurant" to my favorite Indian restaurant in Fort Myers, "India Palace".

First of all, the description on this page simply says "Bar". I don't get that. It's a very nice restaurant. It has many tables along the walls which are behind curtains, a very nice touch. A fountain in the middle adds ambiance. It's dim w/ colored lights around the fountain.

The staff is very friendly and the service was wonderful. They take reservations.

The food was amazing. Only having been there once, I can only say so much. I had Chicken Korma, hot, and it was to die for. I love cream sauces, and this Korma (creamy curry sauce) was wonderful, w/ cashews and raisins. The garlic naan was amazing: very garlic-y and buttery. My dining partner had Chicken Biryani and claimed it was top-notch. The rice had a nice flavor, the vegetable samosa was tasty. The onion chutney was as spicy as it is at "India Palace" in Fort Myers (very spicy).

Honestly it's one of the best Indian restaurants I have ever been to. I cannot wait to go back. Ft. Lauderdale is a 2-hour drive from here (Fort Myers) and we don't get there often, but it is one of the places I will make a point to visit again.    [20 Jul 2003 21:50:49]
