99 Punjabi dhaba: Authentic Indian Breakfast & Brunch Experience

The best North Indian/Punjabi food I’ve ever had!The food is authentic and delicious! It’s on route Sequoia National Park so perfect place for comfort food after long hikes and drives. We had their Shahi paneer, Daal Tadka and Naan. Everything was freshly prepared and you would experience homely flavors in each bite. It’s a It’s a small place right off the highway so don’t be thrown off by how simple the place looks place right off the highway- simple, clean and doesn’t have a lot of space for dine-in but accommodates a few tables. Highly recommend this place.

This Punjabi dhaba, located right off the highway just 15 minutes from Visalia, is a great spot for authentic North Indian food. I dined here a couple of times during my stay and was impressed with the quality. The parathas and Amritsari kulcha were absolutely delicious, and the curries were flavorful as well. The only dish that didn’t quite meet my expectations was the saag, but everything else was excellent. A solid choice for a satisfying meal on the go! Limited seating, open till late on weekdays.

Food was very delicious. We got a butter chicken combo, black daal, and some veggie samosas. The ladies working were helpful with explaining to me what some of the things on the menu were. Service was great, place was clean, and food was so good (: loved it!

The food here is so delicious! This is the first review I’ve left because it left such a good impression. I love a good butter chicken with garlic naan and this one was phenomenal! It is a very cute and welcoming family-owned joint and I would highly recommend! Our plates were empty but our stomachs were not.

Everything we had was delicious and fresh! Quick and friendly service, lots of folks picking up food to go. I think we'll stop in the way back for the samosas

What a beautiful find!! We were at Sequoia and wanted to eat some Indian food and came across this place on Google Maps. This hit all the spots. It was soo delicious and the owner of the place was extremely sweet too. Apparently his mum cooks the food. The food was delicious. The biryani was super tasty and the Malai Kofta was just out of this world. It is one of the best malai koftas I’ve had. Definitely recommend this. The roti was so soft and nice too I forgot to take a picture before I started eating because we were so hungry and also the food was so tasty. Definitely try this place and eat here, take food from here, everything. It’s worth it.

Me and my wife tried Butter Chicken, Biryani, Naan, and Amritsari Kulcha, and everything was absolutely delicious! The food was fresh, full of flavor, and reminded us of true Punjabi taste. The butter chicken was creamy and perfectly spiced, the biryani was rich and aromatic, and the naan and kulcha were soft and tasty. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving real Indian food — definitely coming back again!

The name truly says it all — this place is a real Punjabi Dhaba. From the location to the interior, everything fits the vibe perfectly and feels authentic the moment you walk in. What stood out the most was the hospitality. The owner and staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, and the service felt genuine, not forced. We were honestly unsure about driving almost 50 miles just for dinner, but after eating here, we knew it was completely worth it. We tried a mix of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, and everything was delicious. The food tasted like it was cooked at home — no artificial coloring, no heavy oil or grease. The non-veg dishes were especially impressive: well-cooked, tender, and full of flavor, not dry at all. You could tell everything was freshly made. We ended up chatting with the owner, who shared that all the food is prepared fresh, including their in-house masalas. The chef has over 40 years of experience, and it really shows in the taste and quality. They cook veg and non-veg items separately. This is easily a place I’d recommend to anyone looking for authentic Punjabi food. We’ll definitely be stopping here again whenever we’re passing through Highway 90.
