Dakshin Indique

The food was amazing. 4 of us went to visit this place with all 4 of us being from different countries, with spice tolerance varying from mild to hot. The chef and the team made sure all of us could enjoy the food and flavors. This is already our favorite spot for Indian food in DMV.

Love this place. Our server and the food were both fantastic. Photo attached is the samosa chaat - an elevated, yet flavorful, version. They also have fun cocktails with Indian flavors - I recommend the tamarind one :)

I was here for my birthday with a friend, and we had a great time. This is the only place in DC with South Indian food (beyond idli & dosa) as far as I know, and the food was excellent. We had the chettinad chicken and malabar fish curry with appams. They als have really interesting drinks! The service was exceptional and we would recommend this place to everyone.

service was amazing! so attentive and kind. a little slow but there was limited staff and a lot of customers so understood. Food was reasonably priced and there were so many options. Definitely want to come back and try other menu items! they do not offer drinks if that’s something you are looking for in a dining experience.

My son loves this restaurant and took me when I was visiting from San Francisco. We used to live in Chennai many years ago and always look out for South Indian cuisine. An absolutely delicious dinner from start to finish. Service was excellent and warm. Highly recommend for some wonderful South Indian cooking.
