    The food was excellent - exciting and delicious. It was perfect for our gluten free friend. The service was also excellent - friendly and attentive.

    A selection of Indian dishes featuring tender meat in spiced gravy with fluffy rice, creamy curry, crispy papadum, and a hearty lentil dish, highlighting a communal dining experience.

    Fantastic food as usual. Worth visiting Glasgow just to dine here. Great vegan options. Excellent service

    Thought the service was excellent and hadn’t ate a dosa previously, which came out lovely presented. However thought the chicken and lamb were overcooked. Think it would be good to have some authentic art on the walls to improve ambience.

    The restaurant is a nice little spot, tucked upstairs above Merchant City Square. The food was amazing and the staff were friendly, the pre-theatre menu is great value with some delicious options.

    Coeliac heaven! The only restaurant I know I can feel totally safe in. The food is absolutely delicious. I am working my way steadily through the vegetarian options on the menu. Paper dosa is a must at every visit though. Absolute gem of a restaurant.

    There were some excellent dishes, but portions were small for the prices charged. The starters were good but the salad garnish was straight out of those mixed supermarket bags with an abundance of dry red cabbage. Following the starters, the rest of the meal was delicious and better presented. Dessert was good, but the Masala Chai lacked taste compared to other restaurants we have been to.

    This is a superb southern Indian restaurant with an extensive menu of largely unfamiliar dishes, very well prepared and presented. Highly recommended!

    We consider ourselves Indian foodies and have often been disappointed with some restaurants we have visited. Thankfully this wasn't the case with Dakhin the food and service were out of this world . When we're back in Glasgow we'll definitely be paying it another visit

    Tasty food, friendly staff. Rather noisy (wooden floors with no baffling)

    Our booking was at 6pm and I had to ask for the pre theatre menu, which is good value. When we got served our starters the waiter said our mains were ready too and did we want them. We said no, so I can only presume they were kept hot, our starter plates were speedily removed and mains brought out. The food was tasty and plentiful. We don’t have a gluten intolerance but for those that do it will be a good restaurant.

    Having never tried a restaurant specializing in food from South India we did not know what to order and did not recognize half of the names of the courses on the menu. Our waiter walked us through the menu and gave us some great recommendations on what could go well with what. A very friendly atmosphere and fantastic food, I do recommend highly.

    It's a must try restaurant, amazing food & worth every penny, the flavours are on a different level from any take away. The taster menus are great for a group meal

    We were so looking forward to having real South Indian food for my birthday and having told the waiter that we all can take our food hot , we were served with tasteless and non spicy food. The samba’s were watery and you could drink it which isn’t how it should be. We paid for the set dinner as we all wanted a fest and ended up leaving a lot of it untouched. What started as a promising dinner ended as a disappointment. ????
