Review content:
If you eat meat, Koojeehor(rible)-O is just passable. I had the Lamb Kajari(ble). The dish consisted of three huge chunks of what I hope was lamb (they were soft and mushy) and five enormous tomato slices (they were soft and mushy, too). Then the whole thing was spiced to the gills, probably to enflame your neurons so you wouldn't be able to immediately return home and write a cogent review of the place on Citysearch.\r

The real humdinger, as it were, of the night, was my fiancee's meal. She has the misfortune (in this case) of being a vegetarian and, if you, are a vegetarian who decides to eat at this restaurant, you too shall have misfortune showered upon you like so much coriander. She ordered Navratan Korma which, in Khajuraho's Hindi apparently translates as ""Frozen Veggies from Superfresh in Campbell's Cream of Broccoli Sauce"". Now, we can't be sure about the broccoli sauce, but we're damn sure about the frozen veggies part, because I'm sitting here looking at the very bag of frozen vegetables that her meal consisted of. They're, just in case you're curious, too: La Fe ""Italian Blend; Grade A Fancy Style"". Perhaps this dining establishment feels justified in charging $11.95 for a plate of reheated and spiced frozen vegetables because the bag says ""Fancy Style"", but I would submit to you that Khajuraho would have no compunction about serving its patrons ""Fancy Feast"" which, for those of you who don't own cats, is cat food. \r

For proper food, the prices aren't bad. For frozen food, they're outrageous. \r
\r
Why go here when you can easily heat up a bag of frozen veggies yourself, if you want plop open a tin of soppy mystery meat product and cover the whole thing in cream of broccoli soup, maybe garnish it with a bit of curry and call yourself a cosmopolitan diner in the comfort of your own home? \r
\r
In fact, do that. Stay home.
Pros: It was family-friendly, in spite of sandstone depictions of unclothed people on walls.
Cons: Food, service, price
