The Clay Pit, a charming Indian restaurant in downtown Austin, continues to impress diners with its vibrant atmosphere and exquisite cuisine. Despite recent reservation miscommunication, the wait was rewarded with a remarkable meal that transformed even the most skeptical into Indian food enthusiasts. Patrons rave about the diverse menu, highlighting standout dishes like crispy samosas, flavorful Chole Saag, and distinctively spiced vegan appetizers, particularly the celebrated hummus. The attentive staff enhances the experience, although some note moments of hurried service. With generous portions and a delightful brunch buffet, The Clay Pit promises a memorable dining experience worth savoring.

Before going to Clay Pit, I was not a fan of Indian cuisine and only went because of a work event. However, after dining at Clay Pit, I have become a passionate lover of Indian food.

I highly recommend the Sunday buffet at this restaurant - it was fantastic! The staff were friendly and the food was delicious.

Upon our arrival, the restaurant could not locate our reservation that had been made through OpenTable. We were informed that they had not been working with OpenTable for the past three months. Despite our surprise, we were told that we were only the second customers that day who had made a reservation through OpenTable. We were informed that we would have to wait 45 minutes. We decided to wait and proceeded to have our meal. Can someone clarify who is correct in this situation - OpenTable or Clay Pit?

We love Indian Cuisine and enjoy trying different places. The restaurant was pretty spacious with a lot of seating. The service was quick and the food was fresh and full of flavor. We tried various dishes and enjoyed them all. The samosas were very tasty.The garlic Naan was also delightful. We will certainly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great meal.

I liked the food and the ambience. Very rustic. The tandoori were good, but they took long. The servers were nice and considerate but somehow the food took very long. Not the most authentic Indian food, the naan bread was very doughy and notfluffy enough, but it gets the job done. Very good price for the amount of food we had! If you’re not looking for authenticIndian food specifically, this place will do for you!
