Dakhin' is located in the heart of the Merchant City, Glasgow and is the first authentic South Indian Kitchen in Scotland. After much accolade and acclaim for our first offering 'The Dhabba' - Authentic North Indian Diner, we now have another venue to give your taste buds the surprise of South Indian flavours.

We have carefully hand-picked some of the finest talent in South India to bring to Scotland for the first time the delight of a real 'Dosa' (a mouth watering thin rice crepe which can be savoured with a variety of fillings or as accompaniment to the delightful South Indian curries) can be experienced at Dakhin - just like the one you would get in India!

We cater for connoisseurs of fine Indian food. Our style is casual but smart. The decor is contemporary, with a spacious, comfortable and lively atmosphere. Dahkin is believed to be the first authentic South Indian kitchen in Scotland.

EatScotland Says:
Set in the heart of the Merchant City, the Dakhin offers a delightful escape to the south of India, with the emphasis on milder, more subtle flavours.

Mamsam chop, Nilgiri sauce: "A smoking pyramid of crusty lamb chops on a salad base, garnished with a lemon wedge. An appetising display." "Superior quality lamb, marinated in garlic, yoghurt, ginger and South Indian spices, and grilled under a fierce heat to blacken edges. Succulent and very moreish." "A well made sauce, with the heat of the green chillies cut through with cool coriander and mint, and enriched with creamy coconut. The rice was correctly cooked and enhanced by the tasty addition of lentils, mustard seeds, curry leaves, red chilli and grated coconut."
