I normally stay miles away from buffets, but the lunch deal at The Clay Pit can't be missed. Wonderful, fresh dishes with several good vegetarian options.

I don't know much about Indian food, but I feel like this is probably some of the best in Austin. I've gone for dinner several times, and it's great to order a few dishes with friends and share. The drink menu huge, and the waitstaff is always sincerely pleasant and helpful. Also, they have a good selection of vegetarian dishes...always a plus for me.

The Clay Pit has very good Indian food and good prices for lunch. Their menu looks somewhat expensive for dinner but I’m sure I’ll try it sometime. Their chicken is excellent and the blend of spices which is in most of their food is very flavorful although many of the dished turn out rather spicy. A great restaurant for lunch downtown.

The Clay Pit has very good Indian food at very reasonable prices for lunch. I have not eaten there for dinner, but I agree with some others that it looks rather expensive for dinner. Their lunch buffet, however, is very good. Their chicken is spiced nicely and they offer tons and tons of vegetarian options. A great place to catch lunch when you're downtown.

If you work in the downtown area, you've got to try the Clay Pit's lunch buffet. I've never been there for dinner, but their menu looks a bit pricey for my pocket book. However, their lunch buffet is affordable and you get a pretty decent amount of choices. Their main dish always changes so you might want to call ahead if you have something specific in mind. I've heard some people complain about the lack of choices their buffet offers but for $7, what do you expect? Their dinner is way more costly and this way you get to taste a variety of their specialties. You'd likely spend just as much if you went to the Pizza Hut buffet which is way greasier and lacks the quality. I'd say try it once and see if it's for you.

I ate here the other day, and I must say it was really tasty. The spices in the food and the cultural feel are all a valued assent in this restaurant. The service is very friendly and the dim setting is perfect for any romantic occasion. I would return here any day for this very cultural meal.
