Dakshinayan

This is located in the Anand Hostel building, on its ground floor. The restaurant is quite popular. Most tables were busy at around 1.30 PM. The service was quick. Taste of food was good. Though the lemon rice were slightly oily. These were tasting delicious. Worth a visit.

Went here on a Monday morning. Got seated immediately. We called for vadas, rava sada dosa, masala triangle dosa and filter coffee. Rava and masala dosas were average. Like any other restaurant. Vadas were very nice and crispy. Their tomato chutney is AMAZING. And the same goes for filter coffee. Amazing filter coffee.

Located at Juhu, Dakshinayan is a great south indian cuisine dining experience. There was a queue ahead of us, so we had to wait for our turn. But the waiting area has comfortable searing arrangement. I tried the Mogla podi masala dosa amd Tatte Idli. Both of them tasted great, but as both of them were filled with molga podi powder/gunpowder it was too much for me to take as I don’t have that high of a spice/masala tolerance. So if you don’t have much spice tolerance, I would suggest not to order a whole portion of it, maybe share or have a few bites instead. The sweet lassi and butter milk were amazing though!

The food was really nicee. I ordered a tathe Idli and it was really tasty. I loved the chutneyy, I could eat it without idli as well🙈. We ordered several dosas as well, every food item was worth it. Overall, it’s a good place to visit to have south indian food. The service is also quick. The waiters were are amicable.
