India Clay Oven

Chris a month ago

This is my 1st Indian restaurant since moving to the Bay. The restaurant is beautiful inside. The art and decor give a well-balanced feeling of deep culture and traditions. The staff were polite, funny and very detailed in their service. We were explained, any dish and were able to try a wide variety of food. The food was delicious! We had varying dishes, lamb, shrimp, creamy chicken and sides (no French fries lol). My skillet was good, shrimp and peppers. The price was unreasonably affordable! We were shocked at having a healthy portion for the price we paid per person. I would recommend trying this restaurant and exploring some different dishes, from a unique and beautiful place.

The lunch buffet is back! I’ve been eating here for the last 20 years and they have been a staple in the neighborhood. Navi and his team have provided reliably delicious Indian food in the Richmond district. Pro tip: a cup of chai is the perfect way to finish the meal.

Great lunch buffet for 17.99. Our server Navi was attentive and polite. Food was remade frequently during my visit. Only critique I have is I wish they played some music! It was so quiet inside you can hear forks hitting your plates. I’d still visit if you’re craving Indian food and don’t mind the silence.

India Clay Oven is an absolute hidden gem on the SF Peninsula, and it made for the most precious, private, and romantic date night. The restaurant is unbelievably gorgeous on the inside, yet surprisingly, there wasn't a single soul sitting down when we went. Having that beautiful space all to ourselves made the atmosphere feel incredibly special and intimate. The Paneer Tikka Masala was absolutely amazing, and it is totally worth getting it spicy because the heat level and flavor were perfect. The garlic naan had phenomenal flavor and texture, and the rice was incredibly generous with the seasonings. It was mouth-numbingly good and paired perfectly with the curry.If you want top-tier Indian cuisine and a stunning, quiet setting for a night out, this is the spot.

This place is absolutely amazing. We've come for their lunch buffet and consistently get their takeout, both are equally delicious. But the PHENOMENAL service especially from Nabi!!!! is the true highlight every single time. They are so kind and attentive, the best food : service : atmosphere ratio you'll find in the area. We'll keep coming back :)
