i always say service above all, and hagen the manager was a breath of fresh air! he was truly a character and made our night even more worth it! i will definitely be coming back. the food is absolutely delicious and super filling 💗
I ordered the lamb korma it was very delicious. I would recommend hot as medium didn’t have enough spice for my liking-delicious nonetheless. Service was fast and the waitress was nice. It is a very beautiful restaurant!
Clay Pit never disappoints! This is easily one of our favorite spots in Austin—from dinner date nights to bringing friends and family, it’s always incredible. The food is absolutely outstanding, especially the Lamb Kadhai (so flavorful and perfectly cooked!) and their fresh, perfectly soft naan. The drinks are not only delicious but also so beautifully presented. The interior is stunning—warm, elegant, and such a vibe—and the service is consistently amazing every single visit. Nav even stopped by our table to personally check on us and make sure everything was perfect, which was such a thoughtful touch and made our experience even better. They also have a fantastic party hall for events, which is a huge plus. Overall, Clay Pit continues to be our go-to, and we can’t recommend it enough! 5 stars every time.
Claypit is your place to get that best of Indian food. It's near UT Austin campus and the customer service was great. They also have halal options for lamb and beef which was amazing. I loved the food and drinks and it was not noisy like most restaurants I have gone to. Definitely recommend
Really enjoyed our first time dropping in. The repurposing of the old building structure is very cool for a quaint dining experience. Our service was friendly and helpful, and we agreed that the cauliflower was the big hit w its crispness and pack of flavors. The menu has plenty of options without being too big. I also enjoyed the lamb and was glad that I could choose my level of heat. Will be back for sure!
