Visited this place, nothing was good. Service very poor, you need to run to the manager to give your order, to pay your bill. No taste in food, and according to the cost is poor food and poor service. I don't prefer it to spend valuable time and waste your money. Read less

After a full day of walking, we wanted something comforting for dinner. We’d seen reviews for Dakshin Indique and decided to give it a shot, even though it meant a 40-minute drive on a rainy Tuesday night. Honestly, it was worth it. We ordered the Paneer Biryani, Chicken 65, and Chicken Biryani. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and had the right amount of spice—not overwhelming, just satisfying. Even though we’re only visiting DC, we’d definitely come back. Read less

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Authentic South Indian Flavors That Hit Home! Had an absolutely amazing dining experience at Dakhshina in Washington! Every dish we ordered was bursting with authentic South Indian flavors. The fish curry and chicken curry were rich, aromatic, and cooked to perfection. Chicken 65 was crispy, spicy, and full of flavor — a definite crowd-pleaser! The mutton biryani was a highlight — beautifully layered with tender meat and perfectly spiced rice. We also tried the Chettinad dosa, which came with bold, spicy masala and chutneys that elevated the whole experience. To top it off, the mango lassi was thick, creamy, and refreshing — the perfect balance to the spice. The staff was warm and welcoming, and the service was prompt. If you’re looking for a true taste of South India in Washington, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended! Read less
