What people say, in short
Punjabi Dhaba is a recurring North Indian recommendation, with the location behind Taka Pizza explicitly identified in one answer and supported by a reply. One diner recommends the vegetarian menu and particularly likes the baingan bharta. Another suggests it for affordable North Indian food near Mission Street, contrasting it with the more expensive White Town area. It is a practical alternative to the tourist-facing restaurants closer to the beach, rather than a claim to a special-occasion setting.
