My family I had a wonderful time at this establishment. The restaurant was very clean and our waiter was very welcoming and kind. Our food was outstanding. I ordered the chicken tikka marsala, and my husband ordered the lamb curry. Everything was served hot and fresh. The non-wasn't just soft but also very crispy on the bottom, which was a nice touch to the overall meal. We will definitely be back! read more

Khaab is very tasty, and I would give it 4 stars for takeout. The curries are rich with flavor and well prepared, and the naan is excellent. My dine-in experience is more middling: servers are friendly, but the service is often very slow (even when the restaurant is pretty empty). Last time we waited a long time for everything, from drinks to placing our order, and there were only three other tables occupied. Be prepared for a possible long wait-- but the food is so tasty, it may feel worthwhile. read more

The food is some of the best Indian cuisine I've tried recently in Columbus. The servers are excellent--very polite and attentive, always checking in to make sure we're having a good time. They also do a great job keeping water glasses filled and making sure the drinks and food taste great. The only downside is the restaurant layout. A small change could really improve the flow and make it feel cozier, especially since guests with reservations sometimes end up waiting near the entrance and blocking the way for customers who are leaving. Aside from that, the experience was excellent overall. read more

This is absolutely one of my favorite restaurants in Columbus for Indian food :) The service staff are always a delight, the Lamb Saag is to die for, the Onion naan is so moist and delicious, and the vibe and ambiance inside is super chill. Parking close can sometimes be tough and when it is packed it can be a bit loud in there, but I find every opportunity I can to visit and enjoy this little gem! Highly recommend read more

A friend and I visited on a Friday night. The restaurant was crowded but we didn't have to wait. The service was inconsistent, but okay. They have such a variety of cocktails so I would love to come back for happy hour. I enjoyed my Indian Summer cocktail as it was refreshing. The bread/naan was a $2 charge but worth it as you can't go wrong with naan. I ordered the Dinner Special which was a generous amount of food for $22. It was a little taste of everything and included an appetizer and dessert. I got spice level 4 out of 5 but probably could've gone 5 as I like to sniffle a little bit when I eat my Indian food. Overall, the meal was good and I would definitely return to this spot for Indian in the future. read more

Date night! Post-movie dinner at Khaab Indian Kitchen & Bar in Bexley. It was our first time here and we found the restaurant quite bustling and the decor modern, but comfortable. My only complaint is that lighting was really dim,, particularly in the corner, where we sat. The service was very attentive despite how busy they were. We ordered more food than we knew we could eat, but decided to try a couple of different entrees, which looked similar but tasted very different. I ordered the Punjabi lamb and Dan got the chicken Rogan Josh. Both were very good- saucy and the regular heat level was fine for our palates, however there is milder and hotter. We shared the chef's special stuffed naan (which was our favorite) and paneer pakora with dipping sauces. It was a very filling dinner but hit the spot on a cold, dreary night. I'll be back for the happy hour specials. read more

I placed a carry out order of Saag Paneer and veg samosas. I went inside and saw that they had a small buffet in addition to a menu to order from. I was a little confused when I walked to the bar because no one helped me. I waited for at least 10 minutes and a lady finally came out to clear dishes from someone that just left. If I had not asked her if she could help me I would still be standing there. She did apologize and helped me and I appreciated that. My food was amazing and I would definitely recommend it. The place was not full of people but it did have a few people there. The inside was kind of dark but cozy so you could go for a casual meal or a group meal. I willl be back to eat here again read more

Amazing Indian lunch buffet! Took my dad on his birthday for lunch and it was fast and had good selection. They have a good selection of seating and a sizeable bar but we didn't drink due to work. The service was friendly too. read more

Indian food is a favorite of mine and I love trying out new Indian restaurants when I travel and when I'm craving a nice cozy meal at home. Locally I'm a big fan of Aab and Haveli Bistro and from what I hear, this actually used to be an Aab but they changed ownership recently. I was up to giving them a try and lucky for me (and you) they offer delivery directly from their Yelp page, easy peasy. My food arrived piping hot which tells me that they took the time to really wrap it all up nicely. I ordered the garlic naan and navratan korma and both were incredible. The naan was soft and pillowy but at the same time sturdy enough to handle the weight of the veggies in my korma dish. For those that don't know, navratan korma is a mixture of vegetables tossed in a creamy sauce with raisins and cashews. It's my all time favorite Indian dish and goodness did they do it right! I was really caught off guard by how tasty it was. I'll definitely add Khaab to my small list of go-to Indian restaurants around the 614. Give it a try! read more

Love Khaab! They always have great food and service. The lunch buffet is great and allows you to try different items on the menu.

Very straightforward, From decor to the food selections, this is the best I've had since moving to Columbus in 2020. I stopped while working for the buffet and glad I Yelped! My favorites were the Fry Chicken, Gobi Pakora, Tandoori chicken (not what I'm used to but great flavors). I will definitely be back! read more

I tried their lunch buffet and it turnd out great. The food was fresh and delicious. I like their lamb curry and garlic naan the most, they were well cooked. The gulab jamun were cold and they should be served hot. The service and ambiance were great. The only thing was the place is very popular so if you are planning to go on a weekend try to go early when their buffet starts. read more

After a disappointing attempt at going across town to a different Indian buffet (the restaurant was open but no longer does a buffet) it was nice to find this one relatively nearby. It was an enjoyable experience, and a very good buffet. Pretty nice inside. Smallish, but comfy. Service was great though they seemed understaffed. It's a little more expensive than other Indian buffets, but also a step or so above them in quality. An assortment of the usual suspects, all done very well. Things were well stocked at 1 on a weekday. I left full and pleased. read more

Loved all the food I've tried in the buffet and I tried everything! The ambiance is great, chill, relaxed, and friendly. The place is a bit smaller compared to other Indian buffets, which can be a good thing. read more

Khaab is a a small, modernized Indian cuisine restaurant. On a Friday night for dinner it was pretty packed. Luckily with a couple empty tables. We ordered the Lamb Jalfrezi & Lamb Curry. The stew like dishes & fluffy rice was delish. The Naan is a heavenly pair to the entrees. This is a great place to try quality Indian cuisine. The high-quality food and ample servings make the price well worth it. Even my 4 year old approved on everything. read more

Amazing the food and service, we a party of 6 arrived at 7:30 PM on a Sunday without a reservation, but we're able to be seated on the patio which was very nice as it was a bit noisy inside to have a conversation with a larger group. we all ordered different dishes and they were all very yummy and even better as leftovers on Monday evening! The lamb curry and the tiki Marsala were mild in the spice as most of us had very sensitive palate. cannot recommend them enoug. read more

Khaab is an Indian restaurant out in Bexley area and while a bit more of a drive for me, I decided to give it a try. I came out here for their weekend buffet, cause I love me an Indian buffet because variety. We were sat quickly and the waitress did end up leaving us without checking if we were doing the buffet or ordering off the menu. Luckily, another team member came to check on us and let us know you can just go up and grab food. The food here was great, food was replenished often and was super flavorful. I have now found my favorite Indian bread in the form of bhatura and do not understand how I went through this many years without discovering it. Its a wonderfully airy, crisp, fluffy bread that goes perfectly with the various curries and sides. I ate waaay too many bhatura but have no regrets. I have raved about other Indian buffets in the Columbus area before but I think Khaab has now taken my number one spot. Definitely make the trip out if you're looking for a spread of amazing Indian food! read more

This restaurant is in Bexley with parking in the back. The lighting inside was dim and it was clean. I went with my mom for restaurant week and we each picked an appetizer, entree, and dessert. I got a fried paneer appetizer and it was okay. I attempted trying something new but didn't love it. I also tried to steer away from chicken tikka masala because I always get it so I got a lamb dish with rice and it was good. I probably wouldn't get it again. The dessert was a little too sweet for me. It was a dough with a honey substance. The service was amazing! The lady was so sweet! I would go back and try other things! read more

Good food, everything was tasty. I can't really complain, but comparing it to another one of our favorite Indian buffets which has a little more options and special aloo tikki station etc. we probably won't return because it's got less options. Service was fine, inside seemed fine also. A little small inside. read more

This restaurant took over the space that Aab had in Bexley. It looks the same but the food was not as good as Aabs. We had a combo appetizer which was very tasty and had 3 dipping sauces. But our main courses were disappointing. The lamb was mushy and the flavor was off. The chicken was good-my daughter really liked it. The garlic naan was dry and needed more garlic. I'm disappointed but may try again since I live in the area. Service was ok but not friendly. read more

First time eating Khaab. Craved Indian food tonight so I ordered DoorDash. I can't speak to the restaurant since I ordered delivery. I can only speak to the food. I ordered: Garlic Nan - this was a very dry bread unlike what I like from other great places here in Columbus. This was way to dry and more like a cracker by the time it arrived to me. Saag Paneer - this was delicious! Thanks to this I was able to actually eat the nan. I love dipping into this dish. Chicken Tikka Masala - this was my least favorite dish. I love Tikka Masala but this sauce was very different. It was very light in color and low on taste. I've never had bland Indian food before. It was the rich orange color I've come to expect for this dish. The chicken was also more shredded rather than cubed or cut up chicken. This gave an odd texture to the dish that I really didn't like. I would not order this again. Mixed Vegetables in a curry sauce - I added this at the last minute to give something new a try. I'm glad I did because this was very flavorful and tasty! Overall the food was okay, but to be honest there are so many great places to get good Indian food, I'm not sure this would make it into my list. When I read the other reviews it makes me wonder if the actual dine-in experience may be a better way to go. You'll have to check that out for yourself. Total cost: $58.50 - seems a little pricey for what all I got. read more

This place has been on my list for a while as one of the top recommended Indian spots in Columbus. The food was pretty good the service was just OK.Our server didn't really bus our tables or check on us regularly. But in her defense she was also bartending and managing other things so it Wasn't too personal. I got a platter so I tried a lot of different things everything was pretty good. I've been terrible with taking pictures. But here is The mango lassie which was also delicious. I'd love to try the happy hour and buffet. read more

Sad to say, but Khaab was 'meh'. The food was underwhelming and there was no decor to make this place welcoming.

SEVEN WORDS: CLASSIC INDIAN FOOD / NOUVEAU INTERIOR / FANRASTIC BUFFET. . I feel like we've stepped onto a Yellow Brick Road of Indian Food Goodness - Garlic and Lentils and Cardamom, OH My! . We have been here a small handful of times and everything, we've ordered something new and different - from Vindalu to Curry, to Tikka yo whatever else, our dishes gave been ample for the price and we've always eaten this voraciously. Today, we ordered Goat curry and Malai Tikka. . The order arrived slowly (about 20 minutes), but the waiter filled our table with Basmati Rice Toureens, a Basket of Fresh Naan, our Sampler Plate, Lentil Soup, Heat Curry, and an Entree Dish of Matai Tikka. . First Things First. Sampler. The Appetizer Plate includes Chicken & Paneer Pakuras, a trio of bite-sized "fritters", and a half moon of Roti. The three-part dipping sauces were seen, savory, and dpicy - a good mix gor a variety of tastes. . We both bug into The Malai Tikka as soon as it arrived, laying it on a soft bed of Basmati Rice. The Chicken was soft and pulverized, lightly charred like a well- cooked Fajitas meat - however, carrots and cauliflower take the place of peppers. We added a drizzling of Goat curry - pure perfection. . My wife's dish, the aforementioned Goat Curry inluded a broth anchored by a half-dozen Goat necklines. That mix of narrow, fat, and render Goat meat was softer than any shaved meat you'd find in a Greek Gyro. . When we finished, my wife ordered 2 more servings of rice and another Goat Curry. Thus came in addition to a large leftover serving if the Tikka and 4 pieces of Naan (roasted flatbread). . Our entire meal came to $75, enough for 4 gut-busting servings. . And as The Great and Powerful Oz might say: "I know why you have come before me! Eat to Your Hearts Content! I gave Cooked All of this For YOU!" read more

Khaab has replaced Aab Indian. Friends and I stopped by after Bexley's Porch Fest on a Saturday evening. Unfortunately there was a sign on the door explaining they were short-staffed that evening and were only offering take-out that nite. This restaurant space has a great front patio area with shaded comfy seating, perfect for relaxing. It was very nice of the husband and wife owners running the show to let us take our to-go food to their patio and sit and eat there. I tried the Malai Tikka, and it was quite good. The chunks of chicken were very tender and juicy. I would love a little more cardamom/ginger/garlic flavor, as it was very pronounced, but it was still great. The onions, carrots and broccoli were a great touch.the dish comes with a bowl of Khaab's lentil soup. It was heavily spiced on the awesome-side! I did get an order of garlic naan (does not come with the entree), and that left me underwhelmed. Imo, it needs way, way more garlic. However, in Khaab's defense, to each Indian restaurant's own - they all make their dishes with their own touch, and perhaps Khaab's naan is meant to not be as heavy garlic as others. Hot and soft, this one "negative" is not really a negative, as I'll likely continue to get it - Indian food without naan is like peanut butter with no jelly. Both the inside and patio spaces were well-kept and clean. Service was accommodating, efficient, and very friendly. Our food came out nicely packaged with paper plates and plastic ware included, a thoughtful touch. I'll definitely be back to Khaab, seeing as work is a five minute walk away. They have a lunch buffet only on Fridays-Saturdays-Sundays, and their full menu has loads of dishes I'd like to try! read more

Khaab Indian Kitchen & Bar - Malai Kofta Specialty (6/4/2022) - Indian Near Me - Bexley, Ohio

Khaab is by far - my most favorite Indian restaurant in Columbus! I have always loved the smells and tastes of Indian spices and curry; however, have deterred away from most Indian restaurants due to always getting large chunks of dried out chicken in my meals as well as large chili flakes when I ask for my meals to be a little spicy. My favorite meal is chicken tikka masala. Instead of large chunks of dried out chicken, Khaab shreds their chicken which helps absorb all of the wonderful Indian spices in the chicken! One order always makes two meals for me! It is seriously so amazing and full of tons of great flavor! The garlic naan is amazing too! It is one gigantic piece of fresh naan that tastes so good! If I could order this every day, I would! Definitely give Khaab a try! read more

Khaab has been a favorite dining spot of mine for years. My go-to menu items are the many delicious variations of Saag, Chicken Tikka, Chicken Tikka Masala and their refreshing desserts. They have amazing cocktails, too! Girls night out approved! When I can't decide what I want, I can sample a range during the lunch buffet. Wait staff is attentive and handles the crowd swiftly and with courtesy. read more
