Clay Oven Indian Restaurant
About
Lexington’s Clay Oven Indian Restaurant serves northern and regional Indian cooking with a modern twist, combining Kapoor family recipes with newer fusion dishes inspired by the country’s many regional cuisines. The dining room is artsy and family friendly, with a contemporary, casual-upscale feel. Guests come for lunch, dinner and weekend brunch, and the full bar mixes cocktails and keeps an extensive selection of single malt and blended scotches.
The restaurant is run by Sorabh and Anuradha Kapoor, the next generation of a family that has operated Indian restaurants in New England for more than 40 years. Their parents, Vinod and Shikha Kapoor, started with a 30-seat Back Bay basement spot called Kebab-N-Kurry in 1980 and went on to open Bombay Club and Masala Art in Needham. Clay Oven opened in 2019, and online reviewers single out dishes like malai kofta and freshly made rasmalai.
