Profile
Khajuraho’s extensive and surprisingly inexpensive lunch buffet offers all the Indian standards: yogurt-and-lemon-marinated tandoori chicken, chicken tikka masala, lamb rogan josh. What’s unusual — besides the erotic artwork of the Kama Sutra on the walls — are the harder-to-find dishes chef-owner Bharat Luthra includes, such as potato and okra-based aloo bhindi and broiled eggplant baingan bartha. In the evenings, a full menu of northern and southern Indian entrées is available at this popular BYOB.

We treasure Khajuraho for its sensual artwork and spices and transcendent Chicken Tikka Masala.

Food was average, portions small, and came out only moderately heated even though there were only 2 other 2-tops seated in the entire restaurant. Bathroom was dirty. but the worst part was the surprise mandatory "tipping" policy. I used a groupon for my meal and was prepared to leave a 20% tip on the full (pre-discount) amount as I normally do. As soon as the waiter saw the groupon, he announced that there was a 20% service charge required for all groupon meals. When the check arrived, I saw that they had not only added the 20% service charge but they had also collected additional sales tax on the service charge, making the actual service charge 27% instead of 20%. Since the total bill was only about $50, the difference between 20% and 27% was less than a dollar, but the shady practice (and mediocre food) left a bad taste in my mouth. The place was empty tonight and I overheard the waiter mentioning to a different table that they were keeping ownership the same but changing the name in the near future. Tiffin is cheaper, has a nicer atmosphere, and is much, much friendlier.
