Love this place for years. Love Indian food. Chicken is so juicy and the flavors are awesome. I don’t eat spicy food and if you tell them mild it’s perfect. San Mateo Location has the best hours, San Francisco hours suck.
Unpleasant Environment . We went all the way from Fresno . Employees are so unwelcoming to the customer. They were busy in doing there own party and drinks .. and they put so loud Punjabi Songs environments was so noisy and unpleasant. Owner should pay attention on his employees .. their hospitality is not professional. Food was not that great. Would say they need to work on there quality of performance. We thought to ate dinner but after the whole atmosphere we change our mind and we went out ..
Thank you

Was visiting San Francisco for work and I found this little gem walking down the street in downtown San Mateo. You can smell the spices from outside. It was so tasty, I took my leftovers with me on the plane.
Just the very best! This is the best Indian Restaurants, I can eat here as they don’t use MSG. I’ve had others in other cities and my legs ache and that is a heads up that that particular restaurant is using MSG.
Love me some butter chicken!!!! Oh and a Taj Mahal beer to back it all up!! Can never go wrong here. A must try if your into Indian food.

Clay Oven Cuisine of India in San Mateo is a fantastic restaurant that offers excellent service, delicious and savory food, and a cozy ambiance that is perfect for both date nights and business meetings. The owner is incredibly attentive and the cook is able to accommodate a wide range of spice levels, from very mild to extremely spicy. The quality of the meat, chicken, and all ingredients is top-notch and the restaurant is always kept clean. Located in a shopping area, the restaurant also plays great Indian music, making for a well-rounded and enjoyable experience. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for delicious Indian cuisine, with an emphasis on the preparation, ambiance, quality of service, flavor and serving size, all of which are the best and perfect.
I stopped by this restaurant during my business trip. Tried their biryani and lamb curry. I have to admit, the worst Indian restaurant food I have ever had. The lamb curry had everything in it except salt and whatever it supposed to have. The curry was bitter (who puts fried onion on top of Indian curry 🥲🥲🥲🥲 omg) and I forced to eat the meat alone and threw the curry. Likewise, biryani had nuts and everything except biryani taste. Totally won't recommend this place. I believe the chef puts in everything that's nearby his hand while cooking but totally forgets the salt and real spices 😂😂😂
Good was absolutely delicious - we tried several items and most are great. I am glad that my food connoisseur family walked out happy!!
Made a delivery order for 2 online. Order included: Papadum, Nan, Raita, Paneer Makhni, Mattar Paneer, Vegetable Pakora, Rice Pilav. Food delivery was top notch—delivered early & still warm. Flavors were complex, creamy, savory, & delicious. There was plenty of food for 2 people, with enough for leftovers. My only complaint is about the Vegetable Pakora—the texture was tough enough that I feared chipping a tooth just taking a bite! The flavor was so good, but man, it was hard to chew. Overall, a great experience & I would definitely order from Clay Oven again.
