Traditional Indian fare with an occasional Texas twist like Naad with jalepeno & cream cheese.6/7/2013 12:00:00 AMexcellent service. Bar givesexcellent service. Bar gives beverage tastings to help you in decision. Waiter was helpful in diversifying our meal selections. Food is good. We ordered several dishes and shared family style. only one choice was grilled, rest were sauced. Suggest mixing in more grilled items. Got a little saucy!! And spicy. Would go back and order a little differently.6/4/2013 12:00:00 AMnot the pitsNo wait. Tasty samosas. The waiter recommended a nice wine when our choice was out of stock. Our food came faster than expected though so our next outing we will order appetizers then food after eating the appetizer. Our fault. The dining area ran smoothly and even with some large groups it wasn't that loud.5/25/2013 12:00:00 AMVery pleasedWe recently hosted a dinner for 20 people and had the wine room all to ourselves. All of our guests commented on how much they liked their entree . I went by the restaurant early in the day and dropped off two vases of flowers and votive holders. Bolto, the manager put the flowers in a cooler for me. We were very pleased with the whole evening.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMGraduation CelebrationWe celebrated our daughters graduation from UT Austin. Though we had a party of 13 the server, food and service were absolutely wonderful. I would highly recommend this restaurant.5/17/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful, helpful wait staff,Wonderful, helpful wait staff, delicious food. Don't hesitate to try this place.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMIndian DelightThe Restaurant walls are a beautiful white brick and the dining rooms are decorated in warm colors creating an inviting and potentially romantic atmosphere. The building itself has quite an interesting history; just ask the staff. Professional Wait Staff. Flavorful; aromatic; delectable Indian dishes suited for both vegetarians and carnivores.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent food and ambience.Clay Pit has amazing food. The sauces are wonderful, and the servers are helpful if you have trouble choosing what to order. This is one of the best restaurants in Austin, and they take reservations.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMDon't forget the appetizers & naanThe entrees are delicious and ample enough to share. Samosas are the best in town. The garlic naan is seriously good. The service was terrific. Even though we had a reservation for 6pm, our table wasn't ready until 6:15.5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMI like it.I wanted to give the food 31/2 stars but couldn't. I ordered the Khuroos-E-Tursh for the 2nd time. I liked it very much on my first visit cooked with medium spice. On my 2nd visit the dish tasted mild or even of no spice. The lack of spice made the dish over sweet and not as tasty. I love their coriander calamari and the three cheese naan. I plan to give them a third visit and hope they get the flavors right.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMBest Indian Fare in America?Although I don't live in Austin, upon every visit to Austin a "must stop" will be the Clay Pit. The food and service just may be the best in America for Indian food. I travel frequently and sample Indian food everywhere, including India, this place surpasses them all. The panier, spicy lentils, naan, are all perfectly seasoned and cooked. Ordering by 'half order' allows for greater sampling of their robust menu. Reservations highly recommended.4/18/2013 12:00:00 AMromantic successloved everyting about the evening. It was a first date with someone for me, and you folks helped it to be a romantic success! Thanks for your help! ( And I always LOVE the smell when I walk through the door, delicious spices and curry smell. I was only in the restaurant once before years ago, and I immediately remembered that wonderful aroma.)
your online menu and reservation process rocked.4/15/2013 12:00:00 AMConsistently good. We've beenConsistently good. We've been there 3 times on our trips to visit Austin and this a restaurant my college age kids always ask to go to. Service is good. Usually pretty quick. Reservations highly recommended.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMWent there for my birthday,Went there for my birthday, and found it to be perfect for the occasion. The food was superb, and the service was good. The waitress was knowledgable and took her time to help us. The place was a bit loud, so carrying on a conversation was more challenging than it should have been. Overall, though, I would recommend it for a nice night out!4/9/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food and service. ItGreat food and service. It always is. Better have a reservation on busy nights.4/1/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food! Weary of chicken!The food was great! We had the dal makhani, jeera saag paneer, mirch masala chicken, garlic naan, and onion naan. The dal and jeera saag paneer was fantastic, and better than some places i have ate at in India, but the chicken was undercooked. Please we aware of that. The service was great, and our food came out in a very timely manner. We would definitely visit again!3/21/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Food!This was our first time at The Clay Pit. We loved it and will go back for sure. I can see why its so highly rated!1/20/2013 12:00:00 AM
