It's one of the best place for dinner.I visited this place on the eve of Independence Day.
Food:
Starters:
We had ordered mix veg and cashew rolll which was very much appealing as it was stuffed with veggies and cashewnuts which is peculiar Goan product.Then we had cornbell and pepper crackers which was in the form of gravy which was soupy with paneer pieces in it.Further we ordered paneer babycorn mush pepperfry which had sufficient quantities of mushroom,babycorn prepared along with paneer.Also we had ordered cottage cheese which was amazingly crispy and was served with red sauce.At the last we had ordered banana flower vada which was delicious and crispy.
Mocktail :
As it was independence day,they had kept a special mocktail which was 'Tiranga Mocktail'.It was extremely heartening since it had 3 layers orange,white and green resembling our national flag.Then we enjoyed alphonso delight which was mouthwatering one.In this rainyseason we could very well enjoy the seasonal mango pulp in the mocktail.
Maincourse :
We had ordered kooru curry which had the gravy made up of Rajma and beans with coconut milk which was very delicious to have with lemon rice.
Dessert :
We had bibinca which was made up of egg and yolk in different layers.
Ambience:
It gives you the feel to be in Goa.It's the best place as it is decorated by keeping into mind the theme of Goan culture.Also a guitarist was there who came at every table and sang soothing melodious songs.So it gives you a best experience to enjoy food with wonderful songs.
Staff:
All the dishes are prepared by Master Chef Deepa and even the owner Suhas comes to greet everyone at the table like its a culture in Goa.Also they say 'Sushegad' which means to have your dinner slowly.
Staff is extremely friendly and approachable.
Do visit this place in you are in Mahim.A good place for Goan people as well as vegetarians.

Visiting a restaurant such as Dakshin Curry Culture is a milestone in the life of a foodie.
This particular milestone had managed to evade me for a long time but I have eventually achieved it.
Situated right around the corner of mahima lane, this place not only serves some of the best food in Mumbai but also probably in Asia. If you follow me and my blog you will know that I am a fish lover. So Dakshin Curry culture was a total treat.
Let me start with the ambiance which is contemporary traditional. It has a beautiful sitting arrangement, a lot of insignia of the south, an artificial banana tree, a live dosa station and some gorgeous interiors.
The establishment has reached such peaks thanks to the owners Dr Suhas Avchat -a hard working restauranter and food enthusiast along with his wife Deepa Awchat- a prominent chef and author. She has also launched a line of special masalas featuring specialities of the outlet.
I visited this place with my mother and she was impressed as well with both the interiors and the amount of detail that the owners had put into the place.
Between us we wanted to taste the actual Dakshin food. Thus this is what we called for.
Mutton pepper fry: Fragrant well cooked pieces of mutton, that had a lovely taste of curry leaves green chillies garlic and Ginger. Delicious! It is melted in the mouth. Totally recommend this dish to those who like me enjoy some yummy mutton without tons of fat in it.
Alphonso Delight: delicious fresh Alphonso mango mocktail served in a Margarita glass coated with some salt on the rim of the glass. Delicious! It captured the season of Summer perfectly.
Mango Margarita: This one doesn't need a lot of explanation you have to taste to know a good it was.
Rawas Porichatu: succulent pieces of fresh rawas fish tried to perfection. Totally yum! Highly recommend this.
Rawas kozambu: Curry comes in various forms but this one will bowl you over. Thick and nice, the Kohzumbu was so
Prawns raw mango curry: bye for this was one of the most delicious curries I have tasted in the City. Super delicious, fragrant, yummy prawns and just overall drool.worth. A simple coconut based Curry with pieces of raw mango I am sure it will win your heart. You should definitely call for this.
Lemon rice: lemon rice with mustard seeds and chilli. A great pairing for my prawn curry.
Shahi tukra: one of the The delicacies of Hyderabad, the Shahi tukra is literally a piece of bread that is made Royal binding pieces of dry fruit rabdi silver foil and chasni. This one was served nice and warm and was heavenly. Reminded me of the shahi tukda that we had in BashirBagh- Hyderabad.
Wattalappam: this is like an ice cream but made from coconut milk ok and other ingredients. World's not my favourite it definitely took me on a food trip to South India.
Neer dosa: These dosas are literally like face napkins. Thin soft and squishy. This is the best way to enjoy all the seafood. Pair the curry and the fried fish with neer dosa and you are sorted.
Kerala Paratha: agnatha great compliment to a good curry is the Kerala paratha. I enjoyed the rawas kozhambu with this.
Orverall this is a great place for not only special occasions but you truly taste the food of South India. Reasonably priced this definitely should be on your must visit places in Mumbai.
I highly recommend that you go in a larger group so that you can taste many more dishes as the quantity is also good.

I’ve been to fat legion a few times now and every time the service and the food has been really good. The only issue inside the music is quite loud!
Ambiance: The good thing about the place are the numerous seating options,the small tables out side or just the standing area near the bar. All the places are cozy and fun to hang around. The walls are very well decorated with a 90s look and the view from the terrace is amazing.
Food: Over the last few times I’ve tried the food, few of the big plates like the teriyaki rice with chicken, lamb and mashed potatoes, pizza, cheese balls and a couple of other dishes. Some of my favourites are the lamb, fries and the cheese balls. The food is quite good here and the service is fast, unless you go on a busy weekend.
Food:5/5 Service:4/5 Ambience:4/5 Nice place to try out South Indian dishes like Aapam/Rice with chettinad chicken curry , surmai Tawa fry must try
Good ambience.. Good hospitality... and good food..
What i liked -
* Rawas Porichattu
* Prawns and Raw Mango Curry- Good. Tasted good with appams as well as steamed rice.
* Appams- Loved the appams
* Shahi Tukda - Super Delicious
Service was slow and can be worked upon.
Otherwise good experience.

1) I have a special appreciation for a restaurant that serves good Goan & South Indian Sea Food.
2) While doing that, they provide a professional & polite service.
3) The location also matters.
The third point has little relevance usually. But for Dakshin Culture Curry it ha made a huge impact. The place was almost fully occupied at 8:00 pm on a Wednesday when we visited.
And that did not affect the service here at all. It was as smooth and comfortable as it could always be.
Now, when I talk about service, the waiting staff, the kitchen staff and the manager.... Everybody is equally energetic and respects the concept of hospitality.
While service did impress me the most here. The food quality is up there very close to it.
I love South Indian Cuisine, let that fact be out there. Now, that being said, I can declare that this is one of my favourite restaurants now.
* Chicken Chettinad: It was medium spicy by default, which really worked well for me. If you need it spicier, better mention it beforehand.
* Prawns Kozhambu: The flavour of Tamarind shows its good presence. And that particular flavour differentiates it from any other medium-spicy gravy from their main course menu.
* Rawas Pollichathu: Oh! That soft Rawas.... Perfectly marinated and spiced. This is a must try.
* Mirapakai Kodi: That basically is "Andhra Chicken". On the spicier side, the spice mix (especially the higher quantity onion) is what makes it so good. Loved it!
I think I loved my meal here majorly for the desserts...
* Wattalappam: This Jaggery & Coconut milk based pudding comes as a bliss. Such sweetness is grand for a dessert fanatic like me.
* Shahi Tukda: A classic... Not too sweet, perfectly balanced. I think it would go really well after some "spiciest" main course items.
Ambience: 5/5
Service: 10/10
Food & Beverages: 5/5
Value for Money: 5/5

Dakshin culture curry located just opposite to the Mahim post office is a place you must visit if you are a fan of South Indian cuisine.
The ambiance is one of the best I have ever visited with a banana tree inside the restaurant, the live counter makes appam in front of you, the most authentic food I have had in a long time.
Dinner here was just a awesome experience, must try.
This place is like a “Mini South India” in Mumbai!
Lovely typical south indian food , seldom south indian food is served beyond idlis and dosa.
The blend of nonveg and south indian spices was done very well... the way they entertain people with live music is the most happening thing about the place . The staff is very friendly and attends everyone well.

The menu has vast range of dishes, with fish preparations, chicken, mutton.
Their motto is that South Indian cuisine is much more than Idlis and Dosas.

ABOUT THE RESTAURANT :-
Dakshin Culture Curry is a mini south India in Mumbai. This Place serves veg and non-veg cuisines from Kerala, Chettinad, Andhra, Hyderababd, Manglore and Coorg in a South Indian Decor. This place is Easy to Locate. They also have show kitchen where we see preparation of appam live. Another good thing is parts of profits are donated to a charitable Institute. This Place has earned a lot of recognition Nationally and Internationally as well. The Ambience Completely Reminds you of South India. The Exotic Southern Cuisines are prepared by Authentic cooks from Dakshin. The cuisines are modified and standardised to suit the Mumbaikar's Palates by Executive Chef Deepa Awchat. The Owner themselves come up to the table and asked us whether we liked the food and our experience.
WHAT I TRIED :-
1) Kozhi Rassam :-
Its like a Spicy version of rassam with chunks of chicken in it. This is perfect for spice lovers. Chicken was well cooked and the rassam was very flavourful. The spices definitely remind you of the coastal cuisine.
2) Thakkali Rassam :-
This is the vegetarian version of rassam. Not as spicy as the chicken one. This was rather tangy. One of the best part of this soup was the balance of flavour was really good. The consistency of rassam is lighter than a soup hence this is a great option.
3) South Indian Chaas :-
This was a very unique chaas, having a mild tadka flavour this is something I highly recommend you'll to try. Very Delicious and very unique. This chaas is currently one of the best one that I have had.
4) Banana Flower Vada :-
Banana Flower vada was something new for me, I was trying it for the first time. It tasted kinda like a mix of onion pakoda and kothimbir vadi. Crispy coating on the outside and the quantity of this dish was also good enough for upto 4 people.
5) Andhar Chicken (Mirapakai Kodi) :-
Chicken sautéed in onions and spices and topped with grated coconut. The chicken was very well cooked and the spices were medium spicy and the crunchy bits of grated coconut made it a little sweet-spicy combo. Definitely the flavours immediately reminds you of the costal spices.

First of its kind in Maharashtra, They serve Kerala, Chettinad, Andhra, Hyderabadi, Mangalorian and Coorgi cuisines.
The ambiance gives glimpses of South like Kathakali Masks, Wooden Ceiling, Chatais, with diyas and wooden carvings, Tanjore paintings. They also have a live appam kitchen area
This place is a mini south India of Mumbai and their food made us go gaga.
At a point we felt why weren't we South Indians !
What we tried ,
Kozhi Rassam - Chicken cooked with Tomato and Spices
Thakkali Rassam - Lentils cooked with Tomato and Spices
Banana Flower Wada - Dumplings of Banana flower wada mixed with onions, Currey leaves, groundnut powder fried and served with coconut special chutney
Andhar Chicken (Mirapakai Kodi) - Roasted chicken sauted with onion , spices and garnished with grated coconut
Rawas Porichattu - South Indian styled fish fried in red spice masala and served in banana leaf
Mutton Pepper Fry - Meat sauted with onion and black pepper
It was so soft and tender and cooked to perfection
Mutton Stew - Meat tempered with green chillies and cinnamon and made in coconut milk
This one was also super amazing to taste
Prawns with Raw Mango Curry ( Cheeman Managacharu ) - We have never had cooked raw mango ever.. this one was so yummy and the prawns taste crazy good. Something really unique and different
Chicken Chettinad - The classic Chettinad dish where Chettinad spices are used to cook the chicken along with onion , tomatoes and coconut milk
For Dessert we had Wattalappam and Shahi Tukda which were super amaze. #localguide
Dropped by for a particular dish that my friend said that I have to eat - The Wattalappam. It was delicious.
They did have many more dishes that I want to try but that will be for another day..
Loved the interior decor and the staff there were quite helpful (especially since my friend asked for sweet appam!!) in helping us get the right dish.
We visited on the occasion of Onam. Long waiting queue. But once inside the the Amazing, scrumptious, lip smacking Onam Sadhya the long wait was all worth it. Must visit. Highly recommended
Very nice place with eye-pleasing ambiance .A typical southoindian cusine with the taste and spices of south india. Worth the place to visit. They also have the diva maharadhtracha and the goa portugesa. Visit atleast once in life
