"Chef K.N. Vinod handed off his longstanding Indique to former employee Deepu Mohan earlier this year. Now named Dakshin Restaurant, the menu picks back up with South Indian street snacks and crowd pleasers like the chicken cheese kebab. Boneless chicken breasts are marinated in cream cheese and yogurt, cooked in a clay oven, and served with fenugreek leaves. Order pickup or delivery here." - Tierney Plumb
"This longtime family-owned business not only serves modern takes on Indian classics like lamb roganjosh and samosa chaat, but several dishes from where the chef grew up including Malabar Fish Curry, a staple from the southern state of Kerala. Distance from zoo: 0.4 miles." - Adele Chapin, Kalina Newman
"Chef K.N. Vinod and Surfy Rahman have closed their Indian restaurant Indique, wrapping up a 21-year run in upper Northwest." - Tierney Plumb
