  • This is the most authentic Punjabi food I've tasted in Australia. Great balance of spices, so many authentic dishes I've never seen on any other menu. Do your taste buds a favor & go there soon, if you're a lover of goat curry give them the heads up when you book

  • Sensational Indian food. If you are looking for Cafe Saffron this is it, it’s still just as good. Had fish tika, garlic naan, saffron rice and Dahl - it was all superb!

  • After walking around Lismore for 45 minutes in need of some really satisfying nourishment my son and I opted for the Vintage Punjab after spotting Masala Dosa on the sandwich board outside. I had enjoyed a very satisfying dining experience previously when the restaurant was called the Saffron Café and this experience was no different. With plant based and Gluten free requirements the friendly waitress guided us through the options. Excellent attentive and responsive service, very good food and we shared a lovely chat about Sikh culture and traditions that really made the experience extra special. We had the place to ourselves with some takeaway customers coming and going. Just a lovely quiet place to sit and enjoy great food.

  • Wonderful menu and all so delicious. The staff are so warm, friendly and attentive. The restaurant is situated in a quite area of town and tables are not too close. It's always a great dining experience.

  • "Absolutely blown away by the incredible flavors at The Vintage Punjab! Every single bite was a delight—from the best gol gappy I've ever had (even better than in Brisbane or Adelaide!) to the rich and flavorful lamb and chicken curries. And that ginger naan? Pure perfection! If you're looking for authentic Indian food in town, this is the place to be. Highly recommend!"

  • First time ordering here for a cheeky Monday night takeaway and wow one of the best Indian cuisine experiences I’ve had. The onion bahji was so delicious and the rest of the food just as good. Great value for what we paid and everything was fresh and delicious. Will be ordering again and dining In in the near future and looking forward to it! Toddler loved it too which is a plus!
