“ I had an amazing experience at Canteen! Even though they were about to close, the staff went above and beyond to serve us. They kindly made sure we had everything we needed and didn't rush us, which made our meal even more enjoyable.

“ I caught the young brother as he was just opening his store and i wish i had more time to wait for everything to be prepared. I really wanted to have some roti or pratha with my meal but as they make everything from scratch the day of, it would have taken an hour to prep for those side dishes. I was on a short lunch break and he accommodated me very well by serving me the most delicious goat biryani that i have had in a long time. I was craving this for a long time and hit the spot. i will definetly be coming back with my wife as i know she will love to have something that reminds her of back home. i highly recommend this location to anyone passing by, the flavors are amazing! ”
“ I love this restaurant! The food is always fresh and delicious. My favorite dish is the aloo paratha—it’s perfectly crispy on the outside and stuffed with flavorful, spiced potatoes inside. The portion sizes are great, and the service is always friendly. Whether dining in or ordering takeout, I always have a great experience. Highly recommend! ”
