Best Indian in Lafayette. The buffet has a good variety for all flavors. It has been consistent over the years.

I went back one last time because I had a free meal from my frequent customer card. The card states «For every 9 buffets you purchase, you will receive one free». When I tried to use my frequent customer card (with 9 stamps on it) they told me you now need to purchase 10 buffets to receive one free. I will not return.

This is the best Indian food I’ve had so far in Indiana, but that’s not exactly a ringing endorsement. We came tonight for their dinner buffet, which is a very reasonably priced $ 12.99 (much cheaper than Sharma’s dinner buffet, which is $ 18 something but offers a bit more variety, including samosas, which are not on the buffet here). While I would still consider the food extremely mild for Indian food, it does have some Indian spice and flavoring to it, which is more than can be said of Sharma’s food. I wasn’t wild about their rendition of butter chicken. I thought the cream was overpowering and cancelled out the tomato flavor and spices. I did really like the naan, but it was disappointing that it didn’t come until we were almost done with our meal (we went right after they opened at 5:30 and apparently they don’t start making naan until they reach a critical mass of people in the restaurant, which seems odd). I’m sure we will be back here as it seems to be the best option in the area, but I also suspect Indian food will be at the top of our list to have when traveling.

I am a frequent visitor. The food is pretty good though slightly expensive. The buffet is generally a good choice and has a nice variety. Thus I would recommend this place to anybody.

Stopped to visit a friend going to Purdue and she suggested going here. Great suggestion. I’m not an expert on Indian food but I thought the buffet was excellent. I also love bread and their Naan bread was fantastic. Very friendly serve as well. We will come again the next time we pass through.

The workers were kind and the food was delicious. The lunch buffet has unlimited naan bread. However, the bathroom was disgusting. No soap or hand driers. Do the workers wash their hands? And the toilet paper was like molded or something.

So yummy! The naan was warm and fresh, the level of spice was perfect, and the waiter was friendly. A few items on the lunch buffet were unfortunately either out or low, but the selection was nice. I got a cup of masala chai– it took about ten minutes to come out, but I appreciate the fact that it was made to order. We’ll be coming back.

Whenever people ask me, and believe me THEY ALWAYS ASK ME, «what’s your favorite thing to eat on PURDUE UNIVERSITY’S CAMPUS?!» I always say the same thing. Khana. Khazana. Me and my otra significante (what our friendly bro’s and sis’s to the south use to refer to a spouse, boyfriend/​girlfriend, or otherwise plutonic or non-​plutonic engagement of two or more willing and consenting adults) go there ONCE A WEEK for the buffet. Always on point. Sauces are robust and the spices are a fresh change of pace from the otherwise monotonous cuisine most Americans eat. Not trying to be an elitist, just saying give Indian food a real shot, and you will be BEGGING for more. Trust me. I’m not even joking.

These guys need to step their food game up. Walk in and I expect aight food Seriously though, the atmosphere is fine and follows the standard for any typical Indian restaurant, so that’s not the problem. When it comes down to it, anyone familiar with high quality, well made Indian food can tell that these guys are doing a sloppy job. The waiters are too often annoying af and will ask you a dozen times if you are done with your plate. The price is simply not proportional to the quality. Relatively, for Indian food, these guys are probably at the bottom of the barrel right now on campus. Just a few minor modifications on the food game and they might be aight.
As for one specific they abysmal at right now: naan. Might be aight for your white compadre but not for the accustomed brown bro. There’s better out there. So don’t be fooled by the frontin.

A must each time I visit Lafayette! Affordable and tasty. Recommended for the neophyte Indian culinary adventurer. Clean and pleasant staff. It’s really hard to not like this quaint little joint!

Tried the lunch buffet, and thought it was a good deal for $ 11. The quality of the food itself is probably 3 stars. Although I’m not an expert on Indian food, I have had better Indian food at various other places (see my other reviews). However, it should be expected that the whole point of buffets is to sacrifice quality in favor of quantity. Taking this into consideration, plus the low price, the 3 star quality food seems better. This is especially true if you’ve experienced truly bad buffets. There’s not much to comment on specifically about the food. In general, everything here will lack the spice and rich flavor of really good Indian food, so I understand the other reviewers who complain that it’s bland. But overall the quality is not bad, and there’s a decent selection of items. Finally, the location is a big plus, within walking distance of campus.

Not even worth rating this place. Stale food, bad taste. Do not go to this place.
I recommend to reduce prices and improve quality of food.

I had the afternoon buffet here… the food wasn’t good … Time to pull up KK and make the food worth the money.
The curries were flavorless and the aloo tikki was stale. I felt full and awful after having 1 quarter of naan with the curry (I know it is common in cheap restaurants serving buffets in India to add lots of baking soda to the dishes to ensure customers eat small portions)

Submitting my review to counteract some of the poor reviews. To those who rated this place 1 and 2 stars, you must have eaten at another place. I travel all over the United States and I’d rate this place as far above average.
I ordered Lamb Madras and it was very tender and flavorful with just the right amount of spice. Garlic Naan was crispy on outside and soft on inside. Perfect. Chicken Pakora appetizer was fresh and juicy. Rice was a little clumpy, but tasted good.
Service was fast and friendly. Buffet looked a little sketchy. My only real problem was it was hot in dining room.
If you find yourself looking for good Indian food at Purdue, do yourself a favor and try it out, but go in the winter and fall since you will sweat your a&$ off. ;)

Not good food, at all.
I had the buffet and most of the dishes were just plain flavorless. Granted I am no expert on Indian food, but I am from the San Francisco Bay Area so I can at least say I’ve had quality Indian food on many occasions. This however, was just bad. Not a single dish was even remotely spicy, and many of them were just over salted. The service was also very subpar.
The majority of the people eating at this restaurant were non-​Indian people. I counted literally two Indian customers to maybe 20 of other races. I don’t mean to bring race into the equation, but I think this accurately reflects the lack of authenticity and quality in their food.
I would stay away from this place.

I visited KK today for the first time in over 10 years. When this place opened in 1999 or 2000, I was overjoyed that a quality Indian restaurant was within walking distance of campus. The food was hot and fresh and the owners seemed to really care about putting out a quality product. I visited again after graduation and the food was still very good.
However, after dropping by today and having the lunch buffet, I have to admit that there has been a precipitous decline in quality at Khana Khazana. Granted I had the buffet and not the a la carte menu, but the food was just not very good and definitely not worth $ 10. I will hand it to them for having some unique buffet items you don’t normally see an the typical Indian buffet, but overall, I was left wanting with every dish I tried. How do you screw up naan, tandoori chicken and mint chutney? And yet the naan was too crispy and buttery; the tandoori chicken really lacking in the masala heat that characterizes this dish; and this may have been the worst mint chutney I’ve had. Was it out of a bottle?
I am returning to Purdue in the fall for my Ph.D., but sadly, will not be returning to KK anytime soon. Guess I finally have to learn to cook Indian food :(

Khana Khazana carries a diverse menu and the authenticity that I’ve seen at other traditional Indian restaurants have (on Devon Street in my hometown of Chicago). However, there are better Indian places that I have experienced in the Lafayette area where I would be happier giving my money.
The service, while more often good/​OK than bad, is not consistent. Specifically, it seems when a certain manager (the owner’s son?) is working, the buffet is started up late, naan frequently runs out or is rock hard and old and drink refills are ignored. The attitude from the service screams unprofessional (i.e. «Hey bro» or «sorry bro»). And we (the customers) are told to put the lid back on the dishes at the buffet. The food is decent, though, but by no means incredible– given the $ 11 price per person. But there is a variety that can satisfy meat eaters and vegetarians alike too.
Overall, I’ve experienced better. If you’re looking for an over-​the-​top experience with Indian food (or are first timers) take the drive to Sharma’s Kitchen in Lafayette (excellent, excellent place for relatively the same price).
Side Note: If you are driving, parking is a mess.

I have to apologize to people who are new to Indian food and stop to eat at this place. They do a disservice to Indian cuisine. As a South Asian, I have white friends who cook better then this. The latest dining had several dishes that were completely inedible. Everything was mushy and without any true emphasis on flavor. The naan doughy an limp. The dal without adequate spice and salty. The salad bar was way too old. This is not decent Indian food!
I’ve been at Purdue for 6 years now. I think this place has taken a turn for the worst recently after coming under new management. I have seen the Mom and Son several times managing the place and assume they own it. The service is less than professional. Simple things like being greeted by: «Hey bro take a seat any where». Are you running a restaurant or a serving drinks at a bar? «Can you please put the lid back on the dish?», Sorry, did you want me to help you with the dishes too? After complaining that the some things were way too salty, he said «Sorry bro thanks for telling me but we can’t do anything about it». At the end the Mom was talking on the phone as we approached to pay and couldn’t be nudged to hang up. This is the last time I go here, ever.

I’ve been to this place many times — when I get tired of Shaukin and Bombay or when I’m extremely hungry or when I want to treat my friends (knowing very well that everyone will have the 10-​odd dollar buffet… nothing more), and I’ve noticed that the quality of food at this place steadily deteriorated over the two years I was at Purdue. The have a good variety in their lunch and dinner buffets, and the ambience is nice and cozy. And IF and WHEN the food is freshly prepared, it is very delicious. So, do come here during the start of the semester or during Diwali or when India wins another world cup (they had a fabulous dinner buffet that day, and guess what, it was Free! No kidding! :)). But at other times, I’d suggest you give it a pass, until some other Unilocal reviewer says that their quality of food has improved or is improving.

After eating Indian buffets at a few different places all over Indiana, it was nice to get a good fresh tasty meal on our way back to Chicago.
It’s a family run restaurant, making fresh food, and good variety in the buffet.
