I was in Branson for a week and visited this restaurant often. The taste of some of the dishes we ordered was comparable to authentic Indian. Some dishes including vegetarian biriyani and fish curry wasn't good. They lacked the aroma. One big complain I have against this restaurant is that their prices are very high and the quantity is less compared to the price. When you order take out the quantity is sufficient. read more

Fresh, well-prepared Indian food served with friendliness and professionalism in a super clean environment at a more than fair price. We had the hot and perfectly-spiced Mulligatawny soup, scrumptious Naan with some Raita for dipping and Chicken Tikka Masala. Started off with freshly-steeped traditional Indian tea. This is a must-try if you are in or near Branson. read more

This place was absolutely amazing! I eat a lot of Indian food when I go out to eat, and this is the best I've ever had!

Great food and service. My husband and I think this place is FANTASTIC!!!! Neither of us have had this type of food before and we were pleasantly surprised, great service. He was very polite and funny. We definitely recommend this place to others!!!! Thank you for the great experience! read more

One of the best Indian restaurants I've been to. My wife and I ordered two dishes it was so good we ordered a third dish halfway through our meal. We were so stuffed by the end but it was worth it everything there is delicious. I recommend getting the coffees. read more

Excellent! Tons of vegan / vegetarian options, we tried the platter appetizer which is currently the first 3 on the menu but we absolutely loved the Vegetable Pakora the best! I like the sweeter dipping sauce husband preferred the green spicier one. I also loved the creamy flavor on the Navaratan Korma! read more

The food was amazing! We always look forward to eating here when we come to Branson! Today, we came during the lunch buffet and everything was good! read more

There seems to be a little disconnect with the service, but the food was exceptional. We had Gobi, Tikka, a thaali platter, and a mixed biryani. Everything was delicious. The biryani was a little too spicy. We will come again. read more

Went during a quick trip to Branson. Went during lunch and was excited to find out they had a buffet. Everything I tried was great. They also have a small salad bar. read more

After one meal, I fell in love and I will be coming back for more food. I had the chicken tikka masala with mild spices and it was the perfect amount of heat for me to keep eating. Thank you cooks and staff at India Clay Oven and I will be back to try more dishes. read more

India Clay Oven - Chicken Tikka Masala with Butter Naan - Indian Near Me - Branson, Missouri

Atmosphere was inviting with low lighting and music in the background. Chicken curry and lamb Tikka masala were delicious. Service was attentive without being bothersome. read more

Love this place! The service is top notch and food is delicious. When I am in town, I must go to this restaurant. You would not expect this place in Branson, MO as I find Branson short on good food. read more

Very good and spicy, which you usually don't get if you don't specifically order in Indian restaurants. They were packed, but once we were seated, we got very good service. read more

Loved everything we ate tonight. We had the butter chicken Marsala, chicken curry, naan, the mango drink. We will definitely be back again read more

Cost: very expensive for the size of portions. No bread offered as courtesy as most Indian Restaurants do. Sauces were only ok. Flavor: Good. read more

The food is so good- fresh and full of flavor! The staff is friendly and kept our water glasses full (we love spicy dishes) We will eat here again. read more

Great food and service. Everything we had was delicious and hit the spot just right. The prices may bit a little high for the portions, but for being a specialty restaurant and the only one of its kind in the area, one can expect to pay as much. Their rice was cooked to perfection and each dish left nothing to be desired. The garlic naan is delicious and as a Mexican, served as a wonderful tortilla even though that may not be traditional for Indian food. Overall, the restaurant was very clean and the staff very friendly. My wife and I would definitely go again. read more

We really enjoyed this restaurant. The food was excellent and the service was good. Admittedly we tend to eat early but even so everything was perfect. We have the Lamb korma and found it to be as tasty as our favorite Indian restaurant back home. read more

Wow, what great Indian food. Much better than Gem of India in Springfield. We were visiting Branson for the day and came across this restaurant on Yelp. Surprisingly, it had great reviews for an Indian place in Branson. It has an awkward location in a shopping center,but other than that it's great. The owner is very nice and went out of his way to make sure everything was wonderful. The food was very fresh. The naan was fantastic. We were there for lunch and the buffet was well stocked and fresh. Great food, I would highly recommend it. read more

We're ex-New Yorkers, and very spoiled by the unbelievably great Indian restaurants in the NYC area. But seriously, the people at India Clay Oven know what they are doing. We were very pleasantly surprised at the high quality of the dishes - cooked well, presented well, and spiced just right. We had samosas to start, which were excellent. Wife had ginger chicken, which had been cooked on skewers and then extracted and presented on a sizzling cast iron dish with onion, pepper, and fresh lemon. I had the butter chicken, which appeared to be boneless tandoori chicken pieces in the usual creamy / tomato sauce. A little unconventional in the method of cooking the chicken, but it worked. It was just different to see the chicken with the trademark red tint from the tandoor. I asked for medium heat, and it was delivered perfectly. We also had the naan and saag panak (spinach and potato). Very good. We were really happy to find an Indian restaurant of this caliber in Branson. Recommended if you are looking to get your curry fix! read more

It took 20 min for the waiter to take our order and then almost 40 for the food to arrive. Waiter was continuously pressuring us to order things we didn't want, then he charged us for a naan refill... I have never been to a restaurant where they charged for this. The food was decent but had less flavor than what I'm used to getting. I ordered Medium spice and my husband ordered Mild, but his was spicier than mine. Tables are very close together which was uncomfortable. Overall it just didn't live up to what I would expect for the price (meals were $15ish each). read more

We absolutely did not expect to find some of our favorite Indian food while in Branson, but sure enough, this place is amazing!! Kind staff and wonderful food!!! read more

In trying to reach the owner of this restaurant I found him to be rude and nasty and closed minded. He did not give me the time of day and refused to even listen to the reason for my call. I would not dine here if it was the last place to eat in Branson! How do you treat people so disrespectfully????? Seriously I would hope he has a good staff because his demeanor is downright rotten! read more

Food is excellent. Service is good. But price is too high for what you get. Also didn't think portions were very generous. I think it's because seating is very limited and price point keeps it full enough. Either way good experience just expect to pay for it. Tiki masala sauce is spectacular. read more

A gem set in the heart BBQ country! Nice people. Quaint setting. Authentic food that's delicious! Great food and plenty of great vegetarian options. Will definitely visit again. read more

Best place in Branson to eat. Good hospitality, awesome food. I went with my buddies for dinner, some of them never had Indian food before so they were bit skeptical. We order chicken tikka masala, tandoori chicken, lamb tikka masala, paneer tikka masala and Garlic naan. Everything tasted really good. One of my buddy said that's probably the best meal he had after long time. We all went back for lunch the next day. If you are in Branson you gotta try this place. read more

Excellent!!! This makes my second time to go to this restaurant with my husband it was awesome. It is a must in the area. The service is incredible. I ordered the wrong meal and the kindness to correct it to get exactly what I wanted was so professional and appreciated. I cannot wait to go back next month to eat again. read more

I like this place a lot. The food is authentic and the staff is friendly. They do a buffet lunch on Fridays. I highly recommend the butter chicken and/or the lamb korma. The naan is killer too. read more

One of the worst servicing I had ever seen. Food is ok. Owner is murmuring all the times. Probably he wanted every one to leave within 10 minutes. Also it looks like he doesnt like kids. If they make small noise also, he is shouting. Will never suggest anyone or wont return here. I have seen other people also didnt like thier servicing. He should probably keep a board "Kids are not allowed." read more

Great option if you're in the mood for something different - and if you're visiting and could use a break from all American cuisine! Food was very good and service was great, would definitely go back again if I ever find myself in Branson in the future! read more

I have high expectations for indian food because I travel so often for it and it's always my top choice. This restaurant met my expectations and then some. I highly recommend you eat here if you're on the fence about it. read more

I've had Indian food all over the country in most every major big city and this place is my very favorite over all of them. Try the mixed grill and you will be amazed! :) read more

Our family ate here last night and was very impressed! The restaurant has an extensive menu with many authentic choices. Our service was quick and very cheerful. The most impressive, however, was the food. Very tasty and well seasoned, it was the best Indian food we'd had. read more

India Clay Oven - Chicken Tandoori - Indian Near Me - Branson, Missouri

Food is ok, but nothing to write home about. Waiters and the manager got an attitude problem. Would not go back. read more

Awesome Indian Cuisine and service. Been wanting to try this place since I arrived several weeks ago. Finally made it in on Friday. They had a plentiful buffet with all the the favorites and then some. Tandoori Cicken, Tiki Marsala, Curries, Garlic Naan, Fish nuggets, Fried Brussel leaves, salads desserts. Just GREAT. In fact this is probably the BEST Indian Cusine I've ever eaten. Treat yourself to this wondereful dining experience. read more

It's a nice small clean restaurant with attentive waiters. The food is good quality too, and didn't take that long for us to receive our dish. The reason why I'm not giving it the full 5 starts is because to my opinion it was too expensive for the amount of food we got. read more

I am so happy I found this gem in Branson!!! The service is amazing. I mentioned it was my birthday and the owner wished me well and gave me a free dessert! The food was some of the best Indian I have ever had in a restaurant (I am Indian myself). We tried the garlic naan which was authentic, lamb karahi, and flavorful channa masala. If I didn't live so far I would come back all the time!! read more

This restaurant was amazing. I may have had some of the best naan in my life. Not only was the food delicious but the staff were attentive and friendly. There was an entire page for vegetarian options, which made it hard to chose. I had mattar paneer, medium and vegetable samosas. It was delicious. This is highly recommended for vegetarians in this town. read more

This was my first experience with Indian food and it was wonderful. We went close to closing time but they were friendly and accommodating. Tandoori chicken was the best. read more

My image on Branson is,... 2nd tier or even 3rd tier shows... targeted for older generations... very little Asian tourists. What's worse, most of the restaurants are crappy. Not this one. For a typical meal, I recommend the vegetable platter, pick a couple of naan items and go with any entree with non-tandoori dishes, so you can dip the naans into the sauce. Biryani is the way to go if you're less adventurous. Very friendly service, the restaurant is clean, and dishes are served reasonably quick. read more
