" After hearing so much buzz about Clay Oven, I finally decided to check it out. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and offers a fantastic atmosphere. The staff was friendly from the moment I walked in. However, I was slightly disappointed with the food. The flavors were good, but some dishes felt less authentic than I had hoped. I had the tamarind chutney with my samosas which was delicious, but the main dish lacked the depth of flavor I typically expect from Indian cuisine. I think I’ll give it another shot, as it was decent overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Clay Oven and was truly impressed. The restaurant was busy, confirming its popularity, yet the wait time wasn't too long. I opted for their lunch buffet and found everything to be well-prepared. The variety was great, and everything from the Paneer Tikka to the biryani was flavorful. The service was courteous, although a bit slow during the lunch rush, which was understandable. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back to try their dinner menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Clay Oven has become one of my go-to restaurants for Indian food. The plates are always colorful, and the flavors are bold and aromatic. I love their butter chicken; it’s rich and creamy without being overwhelmingly heavy. The atmosphere is lively and inviting which makes dining here a treat. The service can be spotty during peak hours, but the warm hospitality usually compensates. I highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to experience authentic Indian cuisine in Syracuse!

" Clay Oven is my favorite Indian restaurant so far! They offer a great atmosphere complemented by amazing food. We ordered the chicken tikka and saag paneer, and both were outstanding. The spice levels were perfect for my taste, and the flavors were just right. The staff was super friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. I also loved their mango lassi—it was thick and refreshing. I can’t wait for my next visit to try more items on the menu! Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Clay Oven for the first time last weekend, and I must say it was a fantastic experience! The ambiance was cozy yet vibrant, perfect for a family dinner. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the chicken tikka masala and lamb curry, both of which were bursting with flavor and authentic spices. The naan was fluffy and paired beautifully with the dishes. Our server was attentive without being intrusive, making sure our glasses were never empty. With reasonable prices, it's definitely worth every penny. Can't wait to return and explore more from their extensive menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night was my first experience with Indian food at Clay Oven, and it was quite delightful! The restaurant was welcoming, and the staff was incredibly kind and eager to help. We ordered a feast of different dishes, all of which were tasty. However, the chicken vindaloo was a bit too spicy for my liking, but I appreciated the variety of flavors present. The chips with chutney they served as complementary appetizers were definitely a hit! I can't wait to come back and try something new! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations after hearing raving reviews about Clay Oven, and I must say, they did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in, I was enchanted by the decor and the spicy aromas wafting through the air. We began with an appetizer sampler which included the best samosas I have ever tasted! For the main course, I had the vegetable korma and garlic naan that complemented it splendidly. The only downside was the service was a bit slow, but it gave us more time to chat and enjoy the environment. I left feeling satisfied and excited to return! " (*Curated Review*)
