We have been there many times and always leave disappointed by the service which can be rude. The food is average Indian and not nearly as good as the competition in Lexington.

If you want to try Indian around Lexington - there are plenty of choices. This one is average Ambience is fair Naan was good. Other dishes were OK Parking is available but tough (have to walk a bit) I don't think you will have a great bar experience Service - usual indian restaurant experience - not great- not bad

Best lamb tikki Marsala I've had. I love coming here, the staff is so friendly. The food is delicious, best Indian food in town for sure. The atmosphere is very comfortable. In the summer there is outdoor seating which is very nice. Very spicy means business here if you enjoy spicy food :). Can't say enough good things about this... More

One of the best Indian Restaurants around. Menu is large and food is prepared quite well. If you have a taste for Indian food then this is a place not to be missed. Location in the center of Town is not ideal, but the food makes up for that.

My husband and I were "chowda'd" out from our New England trip, and as we passed by Khushboo, we took a peek at the menu and couldn't resist. What an amazing choice of dishes to choose from! We were served some type of cracker/bread with a dip (sorry, can't remember their names) and onion chutney (which was just to die... More

We went there for lunch. Both me and my son were sick. The hosts were very accommodating to amend the food for our health needs. We ate excellent food which was not only mild but still flavorful and tasty. We'll go back for sure.

We've been going to Khushboo for several years. The food is dependably good, the atmosphere is laid back, and the service is usually pretty good. I think it is a better dining experience than other Indian restaurants, including some rated higher on TripAdvisor such as the Punjab is Arlington.

One of my favorite restaurants in town. My family loves eating at Khushboo! They have a great menu, with plenty of vegetarian and meat options. The waiters and chefs there are wonderful at honoring our requests of making certain dishes mild and others very, very hot. I'm particularly fond of their sabji tikka masala, baingan bartha, and sabji korma, but... More

We used to come here fairly often when it first opened - the kids loved watching the cooking in the tandoor through the window. But the quality & flavor of the food has declined heavily in the last 2~3 years - even our favorite dishes (baigan bartha) are no longer worth ordering. Recently tried again (it IS convenient), but we... More

It has been a while since I have been here, mostly because my kids are long gone and my wife is not very adventurous when it comes to food.
