KHANA KHAZANA "A Traditional Indian Cafe" in DeKalb

This place appeases my craving for comfort food. The complexity of the chat, curry and samosas is everything I hoped for and then some. Side note: this is not food I grew-up on but food I love. I travel all over the US for work and I’m kind of a “Husky-Helen”. That being said, if there is good food anywhere I am, I will likely find it! This is one of those places. If you like/enjoy Indian food, make it a point to stop in. I personally love veggie samosas. This is the BEST one I’ve had in the past 10 years, not to mention the amazing chutney that comes with the order of 2. The menu is small but when it’s this good, quality usually comes small quantities.

I would recommend this restaurant for anyone who doesn't need to call ahead and get pickups. The food was great. We got takeout and really enjoyed the cheese paneer (the grilled cheese). The food was on the spicy side for our girls, who really really don't like spicy food. It's probably on the high side of mild, so don't be scared away. We also really liked the Rose Lassi. I would recommend that, too! The person who helped us was great, too. He was personable and gave good suggestions about what great food to try.

The staff was extremely friendly and offered free samples. Prices are very reasonable. Since it’s in the back of a print shop, it’s not fancy by any means—but the food was amazing, and I’ll definitely be coming back! I highly recommend the grilled chili cheese sandwich as well as the aloo tikki chole chat. For those complaining about it being empty…the hours on Google are not correct. They don’t open before 12:30pm, sometimes a little later. But they’re usually open until 7:30pm or so.

One of my absolute favorite places to order from and am so impressed with the freshness and flavor of every dish I have tried so far! Pani Puri is always fresh and incredibly delicious even when ordered through doordash and absolutely love to get their sandwiches, specially the Bombay grilled cheese with a side of masala tea to go with! I am in love with this place and highly recommend ordering online, through doordash or to go as the experience I have had ordering delivery and to go has been impeccable!

I happened to try the food thanks to a sample from a very kind young lady who brought over some samosa while I was gathering snacks in one of the isles. It was absolutely delicious! The chutney was some of the best I've ever tasted. I also sampled some in-house prepared mango lassi, which I bought a bottle of. I also bought a bottle of their in-house made coffee, which is very yummy.

Every time I come here I am given different things to try. It always tastes so good! And my kids (13) and (6) love it too!

Ordered food multiple times over several trips and have never been dissapointed with what I have had. The food is fantastic and I cannot reccommend the Curry or the Samosas enough! The fresh Mango Lassies are also a delicious treat!
