323 Dhaba Punjabi Veg Kitchen — Restaurant in West Virginia

Updated May 2025 Food 5++ Service 5 Atmosphere 5+

Very few times I'm updating same review especially this margin. 4 to 5 In 2023 when first year they open we had very good experience on very random weekend. Amazing food. But the feedback given at that time about service, facility everything seems incopreted in 1.5 years To all my gujju and Desi friends don't miss this Ghar ka khana. Not writing much about taste or food because it's amazing, can't explain just have to eat.

Memorial Day busy day, time around 9:00 Jam packed , plenty of parking space Still no quality compromise, we were 5 people, we're not able to order ahead but that's fine. Very short detour from I81 if you're driving south to north exit 323

It's not a single food item or a taste on this busy weekend that I can say anything less than 5*

We're pure vigitarian we ordered following. Four different kind of Naan Amritaari kulcha Soya tandoori chaap Malai kofta Sarao da sag Gajar halwa

All the items were better than any food in any Michelin star or any other restaurant. Especially on very busy day. Yes service might be slow but food nothing less than 100%.

What else can you expect. And thank you for Makkhan ka dibba

Suggestion. 2 more toilets and Sone ke kiye 4 khatiya

Hoping to visit again when coming back on I81 and keep updating.

August 2023 Original Food 4 Service 4 Atmosphere 4 Amazing and unexpected authentic Indian style dhaba in WV, food is authentic Punjabi spicy food,

The ambiance is traditional Indian style with plenty of parking space outside,

Ordered vegetarian thali, one of the best thali I had in US , mashroom mutter and Veg panner was full of taste,

Naan was freshly made from dough, all veggies were fresh,

Mango lassi has color in it and mix veg paratha only had onions and potatoes

But overall it was good experience, i would recommd people...

Not my favorite in the Martinsburg area but still quite good food delivered.

My favorites at all Indian restaurants -- Aloo Gobi (dry seasoned potato and cauliflower) and Aloo Naan. I found my Dharma order both very good and very missing in essentials. I had requested serving utensils and received only a spoon but that was not all that important. But I searched the menu and could not find raita, the yogurt and garlic side dish that is spooned over or dipped in so many Indian dishes. I assumed it would nevertheless be included with my Aloo Gobi automatically. It wasn't. So I went to my fridge and took out yogurt, cucumber slices, garlic, lemon and mint and made my own raita. Dhaba failure to offer raita was not fatal since I had the ingredients on hand to make my own and in fact saved money. But if I had not those simple ingredients for raita in my fridge this Dharma meal would have been extremely uninteresting.

With my own addition, the Dharma spices are good but remarkably mild and in themselves needed that contrasting flavor of raita. Maybe there should be an alternative offered of a spicier version of Aloo Gobi. I would assume the spice level is very mild for all the menu items. Still, it is a well-balanced mild. It is doubtful that anyone eating here will find it disagreeable. It is also a safe choice for customers who are unfamiliar with Indian food and have to watch the spice level in their diet.

All in all, based on my own delivery experience, I feel this restaurant is good but could be better and both Martinsburg and Hagerstown have somewhat better Indian food. Still, it could be a pleasant...

We visited 323 Dhaba today with the family to try Punjabi food after hearing good things and traveling two hours to get there. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a frustrating and disappointing experience. When we arrived, the lady at the counter informed us we would need to wait as there were no empty tables, which we understood and patiently waited for about 20 minutes before being seated. A waiter then handed us menus and said he would be back in 5 minutes, but never returned for another 20 minutes. Feeling frustrated and hungry, I tried to get his attention, but even after making eye contact, he did not return for another 15 minutes. While waiting, we noticed another table where people had finished and left, and a new party was seated and had their order taken promptly, while we continued to wait with no one checking on us. At this point, we had been waiting for nearly 50 minutes without even placing our order. Seeing my elderly parents, who had traveled so far, sitting there feeling weak and hungry made this even more frustrating. We decided to leave, and while leaving, the lady at the counter—who appeared to be the owner—saw us but did not say a word or offer an apology. The lack of basic courtesy and customer care was extremely disappointing. It felt like the management did not care about customers, and the staff seemed overwhelmed or indifferent. We left hungry and disappointed, with a long drive back home, and will not...
