Punjab Palace

Punjab Palace serves North Indian food at the corner of Brighton Avenue and Linden Street. Chicken tikka masala, lamb masala and paneer kadhai are among the familiar choices, with garlic naan for scooping up the sauces. The vegetarian section includes malai kofta, making it possible to put together a substantial shared meal without ordering meat.

You can sit down for lunch or dinner, or order pickup and delivery through the restaurant’s own website. Service hours differ between those options, and the dining room has an afternoon break Monday through Thursday. Keep that in mind if you’re planning a late lunch rather than takeout. The address is 109 Brighton Avenue in Allston; this listing is for Punjab Palace, rather than one of the similarly named Indian restaurants elsewhere in the area.
