Great place for seafood. Was here on a Sunday afternoon. Ordered the tandoori Surmai, king prawns tawa fry and rawas salt pepper. All were outstanding in taste and freshness. The beer was super chilled which was welcoming. Dessert was furniture, kesar kulfi and matka phirni. The staff is very nice. Welcoming and had a sense of humour when we were joking with them. The manager was also very friendly.
I would certainly go here than any other touristy sea food joint in fort.
It has a real Bombay-Mumbai feel. All classic wooden furniture with very clean and pleasant atmosphere.
This is good restaurant to have chicken... All the dishes were delicious..Service is also good.. Staff is very friendly..Overall had good experience here
We enjoyed sea food here as well as Chinese food it’s a nice place with again cozy ambience lovely options for food and drinks
The vibe here is peaceful they have a 1+1 seating area I had a nice time positive 😊
Dakshin bar n kitchen
Great place for authentic manglorean cuisine
Projector and TV screen all around
Decent ambience and service
Value for money
Must try Chicken Ghee Roast n Neer dosa
4/5 stars
Simple bar which can be considered for office evenings. Bottle system at great prices. There is nothing such as ambience, it’s usually crowded and little noisy.
Try country chicken sukkah - great preparation to be enjoyed with drinks. Fish tikka is ok, ask them to prepare with black pepper.
Try Veg Kinare....outstanding snack.....
Follow me for authentic reviews.
This is an amazing place to chill around.
The service is good.
The starters and the soups are too yummy for the eyes and stomach.
I would definitely suggest you to go and check out this place.
Had been here for lunch. the Ambience is very good. Well maintained and tidy place.
We ordered Dal Khichdi and Keema Pav. The food was tasty. Keema pav was awsome. Loved it.
Will surely visit again.
Best place to visit for food . I really love the food especially the sea food out here. Must try chicken angara., mutton seekh kebab, and my fav dish prawns Buttter garlic, veg cheese corn , panneer Manchurian
There are separate rooms available for a big gang
Service is at the best and I loved the decent ambeince
I m going to visit here once again
We visited this place on a Friday night. A great place to hangout w/ friends. The vibe of this place is great. The place was crowded. The food as well as the service was good. Butter chicken highly recommended. We also ordered dal khichdi, but it tasted okayish. Overall a very nice experience.✨
It’s a lovely bar and nice place. Food is amazing. The surmai tawa fry is a must try and lip smacking. The service is a little slow by the waiter but the food is so great that it can be ignored. And yes dal khicdi is my absolute favourite
Amazing Resto and Bar. Sea Foods are the best there. We tried Ravas Fry. Yummy! Mocktails were too good. Overall a great experience. Comfortable and Affordable.
Must try this restaurant.
I ordered for Fish Thali from swiggy. The Thali consisted of Surmai Fish Curry + Bombil Rawa Fry 2 Pcs + Veg Bhaji + Half Steamed Rice + 3 Chapati + Green Chutney + Solkadhi + Salad + Pickle & all this for Rs.290. I was amazed at the price. coz Surmai one piece in Pratap is around 450 Rs and here I am getting all this for Rs. 290. Wonderful. Coming to the food the Bombil Rawa Fry was delicious and yummy fried properly and soft melting in the mouth. The surmai curry was good but the surmai was not that fresh just ok. Solkadhi - spicy and tangy could be a little less spicy couldn't drink too much. The Bombil Rawa fry amazing must try
I also tried the Mutton Thali - Mutton Curry + Mutton Sukka + Veg Bhaji + Half Steamed Rice + 3 Chapati + Green Chutney + Solkadhi + Salad + Pickle and this just for Rs.330.
The mutton sukka delicious gravy, tender mutton and good 4 pieces. The Mutton gravy yummy delicious. Veg Bhaji was spoilt it has mutter paneer it was spoilt and smelling. Threw it out.
Rawas Fish Fry- Tender juicy fish just melting in the mouth and yummy
Chicken Manchurian Rice - Yummy Manchurian gravy with 4 huge pieces of tender chicken and coated very well in the sauce. The fried rice amazing pieces of chicken. It was good that it had lots of chicken unlike others who put lots of egg and say chicken fried rice. Just felt that the chicken was way too big like chunks of chicken hence it didn't mix well with the rice. I wouldnt say put less chicken but size should be little small. Impressed by the chinese and Sea food variety
This bar is known for cocktail drinks and some snacks ,we ate here for dinner almost 10th times I guess more than 10th times , The restaurant becomes full with customers ,lots of people downstairs so we decided to go upstairs we usually to go upstair only, the food is delicious and has great portions place , decent ambiance
Visited the place last week with friends. The place is neat, comfortable and the ambience is good. The food quality is also good, however the major drawback is the service which is very poor.
Visited this restaurant with friends & this place absolutely surprised me🔥 The seafood here is to die for, you can literally choose
1) Chicken
2) Fish
3) Crab
4) squid 🦑
All of it , all starters, main course is worthy of trying.
Liquor is quite quite reasonable too
You could visit this place literally anytime any day of the week ✨
Absolutely wonderful!!
A good cozy place, fine dine and bar, they serve good sea food, their signature dish will be Crab soup yummy and tasty.
Service is also prompt
Do try this place with friends ....

Amazing place for food and drinks. Nice ambience. Good helpful staff. Sea food preparation is just amazing. And prices too are reasonable. Nice place to hangout with friends and family too. Well designed interiors and smart sitting concept, proper utilisation of space and good billboards on the wall. Comfortable sitting area.
Day 1: Ambiance is nice. our order was chicken tandoori (taste is good correct flavors right amount of chilies and spices.)
well they have a very good crew, they show interest in the customer, asking them about food quality (there was nothing to complain fyi) serving the food on your plates puoring drinks and making the desired drinks large small etc well very happy with their coustomer service.
one gesture of them which i liked very much was while we were eating and drinking the table had got water accumulated from condensation of cold water, drinks etc they picked up the plates and cleaned the table so it was looking cleaned and i personally liked this act of them so nice and thoughtful. because when i told them no need to clean we are almost done they said it dosent looks good so let us do it.
one more thing they do is that they cover your food with the plate so it stays little warm and nothing falls on your food which you are not eating.
overall i was really happy with the staffs dedication towards the customer.
not to forget the polite gatekeeper/security guard. he has a smile on his place and is always wishing irrespective of how many times you go in and out from the place.
great job i felt really happy just seeing these people work so good really appreciate. keep it up.
Day2: We had this cheese cherry pineapple very nice. repeated yesterday's tandoori chicken and 1 plate liver. the captain suggested what type of gravy to go for and once served he was kind enough to ask about the dish. well review is too long.
must visit the place.
Located in c.s.t, sher-e- punjab area,this place serves liquor,sea food,south indian,mangalorean dishes.
We tried their tawa fry pomfret,rawas tandoori, halwa masala along with chilled beer which was tasty.
Would recommend try their masala or gravy dishes sea food with rice; a good combination.
Chinese has a decent taste.
Butter chicken is also good.
Service,ambience,presentation is good.
One of my favourite restaurants.
Well if you are looking for Drinks and Dinner in fort area Dis is the best option.Located at Fort its a Family Restaurant and bar.Went for dinner on Sat night.We were around 10 people and ordered variety of dishes.They serve very good and fresh seafood.Pricing here is average not so high affordable for your pockets.I personally loved their Service it was fab. As it was a Saturday night the restaurant was crowded but still they took care of us so affectionately. THANKS A LOT TEAM WILL SURELY VISIT AGAIN...:)
The restaurant becomes full with customers as sun sets in the evening hours which endorses the popularity of the place among office goers. I had gone along with a friend and witnessed the same on 20th Dec 2017.
The place is conveniently located in Mumbai’s prime business centre. Interiors design is superbly created. We settled down with beer and in starter, we opted for Surmai Tawa fry which was fresh and good in size as well as in taste, properly marinated by Indian spices.
Indeed it is a good place for wine & dine to catch up with dear and near ones after office hours and during the day too....
Dakshin Bar & Kitchen is a nice place to eat and drink just in one block from Travellers Inn Hotel. I ate Veg Kadai and it appeared to be delicious. I also liked the service which was much pleasant. They brought the food and drinks pretty fast. There is also a bar with a good choice of drinks (liquors and beers) and tables in a smoking area outside. The ambiance is pretty relaxing.
I went yesterday in afternoon with my 2 friends. We ordered our regular thats dal tadka and kadai paneer. Taste was very good. Service was also nice.
A typical vintage place in town where you would want to drop by after work and have a drink or two (or more!) with your friends. With drinks at reasonable prices, Dakshin also has amazing food. Their starters both in chicken and fish are amazing. Service is quite prompt. Mr. Ali did recommend some good dishes and was polite and courteous. We had fish tawas tikka for starters and chicken rozali kabab which were lip-smacking. When it came to main course the choice was unanimous - butter chicken and naan. The butter chicken hit the right notes. It was not too sweet as many hotels make it these days. "Always trust a bar with its butter chicken", said my brother and he was bang on. We wanted to try their fish curry and fish fry but were too full to order that. Until next time then Dakshin.
Why is this not on the hidden gems list?? I absolutely loved everything about this place. It felt like a place where you can drink, eat, have fun and not feel bad about it a d most importantly it does not burn a big hole in your pocket. The staff here is so sweet, it just adds up to the experience. I am so impressed with their food. We ate their fish tikka, excellent quality cubes of ravas, marinated perfectly in red masala and melt in the mouth tender. The chicken rozali kabab was a novelty, a sort of a chicken roulade stuffed with minced chicken and melty cheese, perfect accompaniment for your drinks. I was stumped (pun intended) since the IPL is on - with the butter chicken. It was just wow. Damn I feel like having another serving of that butter chicken now :( Great place, superlative food.
If you are at fort by any chance then do visit this place.
Huge bar set up and lot of space to sit and drink. From outside it might feel like it is a regular shady bars of mumbai but it is actually quite famous and they have regular guest visiting the place which include lot of foreigners.
It is at a lovely location and south mumbai or town in night is just amazing.
Do not miss their manglorian style thali or chicken sukka. It is quite good and affordable as well.
You can visit couple times a week for both food and alcohol.
Cheers.
The food is classic .. the fish is yummy and the service and choice options are good ... Also liver masala and cheesy chicken balls were well made and right masalas truly a must go place for every food
Specially the staff and management is at their best customer service
Hi I had been here with my fly for diwali lunch . Nice place with good staff. The person from the counter himself had come to tell us about their speciality food items he was very co operative. We had ordered veg spring roll which was very yummy and neer dosa mutton thali, pamlet fish in 2 styles one portion in red tandoori style and the other half portion in green paste it was very tasty and we had bombil fry it was very nicely cooked and they had given this green pudina with dahi chutney which was very tasty also and and the quantity was also good . Value for money
Good place in a good location. Service was good. Food was pretty decent as well. We went during the Euros and were not expecting a projector for the live game at this place. ✌Peace
Dakshin Bar and Restaurant one of the best place in South Mumbai for quite decent ambience and yummy food. My favourite is Rawas Chilly Dry, Chicken Lollypop,Tiger Prawns Fry,Triple Chicken Fried Rice,Prawns Gassi and Soft Butter Nan . Love this place 😊
It's a cool place for dinner and drinks located close to CST. There is a wide range of beverages and food. The tandoori snacks are good. There are a few cabins if going with family which can seat about 7-8 people. The staff is enthusiastic and the service is prompt.
Dakshin Bar And Kitchen the first ever restaurant where I visited which was a bar ! A good place to sit . A spacious restaurant having a big bar , TV around following with stairs and a large room upstairs with A/C. Like normally with tables and chairs and sofas with tables . Had a good ambience and a nice place to enjoy with friends in our budget .
So finally we started our evening with snacks that's was chakli with green and red chutney , masala papad (garnished with tomatoes , onions and coriander ) Kicha fry papad ( a big round size of papad , tasted much better with green chutney )
Drinks : Budweiser beer and Sula white wine, mojito ( a cool drink with lemon and fudina inside ) , fruit punch (strawberry and pineapple taste )
Main : crispy chicken ( small pieces of chicken , mixed with spring onions , mild spicy , tasted good )
Onion bhajiyas ( v crisp , loved the bhajiyas more , served with tomato sauce )
Chicken lollipop ( 7 pieces In a plate served with red chutney , the down part covered with a foil , neatly garnished with spring onions .
The service I could say is fine , they just need to increase the speed , coz v had to wait for a long time not only for food but also for the bill .
Otherwise everything is perfectly alright .
We visited this place on a busy afternoon and we were looking for a good joint for lunch during our official visit, our cab driver suggested us this place. The restaurant has a thali concept so all of us went for thali. Someone went for fish thali, the other one went for mutton thali and I went for chicken thali. All of us felt that the food was very tasty n nice..just the restaurant needs to work on cleanliness as there was a stincking smell when we were sitting.
Unlike my past experience of this place, this time it was awesome! The food veg. And non veg both was tasty. We ordered chicken rozali, prawns butter garlic was finger licking good., veg crispy and cheese corn ball was also too good. Quantity also was good. Finally, happy with this neighborhood outlet and had a good time.
Perfect spot to make up for lost time with companions for a beverage & great food. I wasn't expecting anything unique, yet I was enjoyably amazed by the mindful staff and liberal portions. The food is great.. Rates are extremely sensible. Most likely one of the better alternatives in the Fort territory.
Lovely place .. yes it is a bar and restro .. i didnt go for drinks .. had their authentic thali .. its yummy .. must go for a change .. highly recommended
Dakshin is located at a prime location (Fort) in Mumbai. And it is because of this superb location, you will always find it full of people having drinks with friends or having lunch/dinners.
I visited this place with a friend on a hot summer afternoon. Our main aim, obviously was to quench our thirst with a chilled beer.
The entire place is air conditioned with a neat sitting arrangement and good service. We ordered beer and as we were hungry too, ordered a full meal of fish thali.
The beer was chilled, fish was fresh and prepared well. The service is quick with the staff offering some really good menu suggestions. Overall, the place is good.
Will definitely visit again!
Went to have lunch there alone for the sake of trying out this place....ordered a Fish thali & I would say it was okay...
Ambience of the place seemed okay & sitting is comfortable...it's better to go here in a group... crowd here is good...
Bombil fry didn't lived up to the reputation...
Surmai was OK gravy didn't taste good... Roti was very ordinary would rather say..was bad.
Service seemed good..
Prices are fine & in accordance with their quality....
Okk so to strt wit , d ambiance is okiesh 2.5/5, service is grt, we we're in a GRP of 20 ppl so can xpect it to b gud, qty of food is good, qlty or taste is bit fin 3/5, crowd is also decent ,u can c few foreigners arnd u here, pocket friendly gud place to catch up for few drinks ...!!!
Have you ever wanted to go to place where you can have a nice meal,drink but also take your female friends as well and keep everything withing budget, then this is the place. The ambience has a smooth minimalistic theme. The food is really good and the service is nice too. Alcohol is not too expensive considering the ambience. I always have a good time when I go to Dakshin. Economical so that's an added advantage.
Everything is good about this place - traditional food, service, ambience but the great thing is how light it is in the pocket. I am yet to see this combination in fort or nearby area. Had been there few times with a large group of friends and the servers were pretty accommodating even considering it was fairly busy. Alcohol is reasonably priced, but would avoid cocktails. Avoid sitting on the mezzanine, as the ceiling is low and becomes quiet noisy. Order every non veg dish and you wont regret it, I really cant recall the names, well you can guess why. Whatever you do only order the full chicken handi only if you are 10 or more and only planning on having the main course. The taste is really good but could not finish it off. Great for a large group, must visit with friends, except on a dry day.
The food is truly awesome - a non vegetarian delight especially if you are a fan of sea food. Truly inspiring - the mock tails need some resurrection - they are not at all drinkable being either too sweet or out of taste. Barring that, the taste buds are in full flow when the delicacies are served. The prawns as starters with paneer crispy and chicken are mouth watering. The typical mangalorean chicken sukka and neer dosa are beautifully prepared - so are the Indian varieties of chicken handi and surmai preparation. A big thumbs up for all sea food lovers.
Hmmm...let's start with a song this time
"kehdu tuhme ya chup rahu,Dil mein mere Aaj kya hai".....
Oooooh.... Wow....
Had a amazing time with friends and enjoyed delicious thali food.
We entire group had been here after a long walk in the afternoon for lunch. We ordered for mutton thali, prawns thali, bombil fry and sweet and sour lime juice.
The thali for mutton and prawns was done well. We enjoyed every bit of it. The bombil fry sort of had a different feeling in itself. But...wait, the best was yet to come... The shevai (sweet dish) was served without our notice, and we relished every sip....few of my friends did make the statement "having cherry on the cake" and blah blah, to many jokes and laughter moments were just created out of the blue.......
The ambiance is good and well maintained. Hot drinks are served too.
The waiters were cooperative we captured time,...............we captured moments.
Nice place for a get together and the bill was a pocket budget.
Non veggies..... Don't leave this place without having fried bombil
"bin peeye Chad gayee "
Cheers!!
Amazingly Awesome..

Loved the dim light vibes too.
Its good if you are going their for drinks and food
As ler me I Would not prefer for family dinner kind of thing
Overall its good to go.
Stumbled upon this place due to the amazing decor that they had in their entrance passage, looked so lit with the swing and the Christmas vibe all together. Decided to go heavy on mains this time since I was extremely hungry! We started off with the Dakshin special kebabs - 3 different types of tender juicy chicken so well marinated you'll be licking your fingers.
Later decided to go for the chicken tikka biryani and chicken gravy with neer dosa. The Biryani was definitely the highlight, quantity is a lot and just so well made, you'll not wanna stop eating this at all. The neer dosa was super good too, worth it overall. Definitely recommend you to dine in here, go for it!
MUST VISIT place.. it's bar and restaurant.. family section is also available.. alot of cocktail and mocktails Available here... We had.. starter-veg Crispy,veg kinale, cheese corn balls, main course-Paneer Tikka masala and butter naan.. awesome taste.. Paneer was properly roasted...taste 4.5/5, Ambiance 5/5.staff is also humble.

Dakshin Bar & Kitchen is well known for its great service and friendly staff.The spectacular interior design and comfortable ambiance make you feel relaxed here. Nice place to chill out with your friends and family. Do try their Mouthwatering butter chicken, fish tikka and garlic prawns. We ordered chicken crispy and neer dosa with chicken curry couldn't find a better combination it was really yummy loved it. If you are near by would recommend to visit once you cannot find better place than this👍🏽
Visited Dakshin bar and kitchen with my family recently. Loved the vibe, ambience and food. For starters we ate Veg Kinale and Hari Mirch prawns. Both are a must try! For main course we tried their Malabar chicken gravy with appam, that’s our personal favourite now. For drinks we ordered Virgin mojito and Mojito Blue lagoon and we ended it all with Brownie with ice cream for dessert. We sure had a great time!
Best dishes prawns tawa fry, chicken crispy and tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, fish tandoori are served here prawns koliwada is also nice and also must try chicken hot garlic, fish salt & pepper, chicken chili, prawns koliwada, fish finger and also eggs chilly
Food and service were great. The smoking area is much bigger than non-smoking. For that reason, I don't think it's very family friendly.
A very friendly place for noon well as evening time.. Max range of food and drinks available according to the location and service the rates and moderate...
Speciality in sea food....

Nice food, fresh fish,i tried pomfret tandoori,n Ravas fry both were delicious.neel dosa was also soft n tasty highly recommend place for fish lover's.Also this guys show you the fish before cooking that's amazing.Ambience is good, also has separate section for family.Need to take care of washroom area as it was stinking.
A bit expensive and short staffed. Food took time to deliver. But awesome atmosphere and the service staff doing whatever they could.
The entrance doesn't shout out what's in the interiors. Dim lights keep the ambiance soft. The smell of some agarbatti blended with air freshener was disturbing. Sea food that we ordered took quite some time but is delicious. The neer dosa with prawns curry taste was awesome.. Great find definitely
Huge space super service,nice location,good food too
As the name says Dakshin. Tasty seafood from South. Loved the prawns butter garlic. Neer dosa .
