The Tandoori Tikka Massallam was okay but nothing special, tasting very similar to butter chicken. The Clay Oven's Assorted Tandoori, supposedly their signature dish, was a major letdown. It was overly salty and spiced, with the sheek kababs being dry and powdery. Overall, the meal didn’t live up to expectations, and I won’t be reordering.

Missing 1 Nan bread from order. Assume this was just an oversight. Otherwise food good.
The Clay Oven replied
Thank you Jane for your review. Sorry for inconvenience. Just give us a call at restaurant when you order next time. We won't charge for the nan for your next order. Thank you. See you soon.
