    Chole was super salty and their famous kadhai dish had raw tomato taste. Service was slow despite the place being practically empty. Save your money and go to the other locations.

    There was just one person serving 6 tables and we had to keep waiting for a while to order food. Had to ask for water in the middle of our meal (because it wasn’t served first. Drinks: Soda and mocktails literally came after we finished dinner. No joke

    Khan Saab is by far one of the best South Asian restaurants I've been too. Everything on the menu is inventive and unique but the flavors are a comfort. I can honestly order anything on the menu and be surprised. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The ambiance is quiet and charming. I wish there was a location closer to home but we will gladly drive here in the meantime.

    I am a frequent diner and wanted to try the buffet for Ramadan. The wait time for naan was unacceptable. Customers had to wait over 10 mins between refills. Please fix this.
