| - My date and I went here after seeing a 30$ for 50$ worth of food groupon. We came closer to the end of the night, and the restaurant was quite busy (in a really good, energetic way).
We had two servers throughout the night, and they were both very friendly and patient when it came to us asking about their favourite dishes, and their recommendations. We decided on an order of the naan, the roti, butter chicken, lamb vindaloo, and a prawn dish. We ordered the butter chicken and lamb vindaloo to compare with the butter chicken and lamb vindaloo from the Desi Grill. For drinks, we had chai (well spiced and very warming), and a mango lassi (perfect thick texture with a really nice mango flavour).
The naan was such a treat to see and eat. It came out whole (whereas some places would cut the naan into quarters for sharing); it had a crispy and well baked crust, just moist and fluffy enough to rip pieces out of. This fresh bread is something I really recommend.
The flavours for the butter chicken and lamb vindaloo were different than what we had at the Desi Grill. Both restaurants were quite delicious, and had servings that was certainly more than what we could finish at the time. I think the pricing of the Desi Grill is slightly less than the Clay Oven, but I am really impressed by the service at the Clay Oven.
I would like to go back and try their vegetarian dishes in the future (I've heard that their chickpea dish is really wonderful).
Thanks for the meal!
