Dakshin Express
Description
Dakshin is a beloved establishment in New Jersey, known for its South Indian cuisine and vibrant ambiance. While many patrons rave about the flavorful chicken biryani and masala dosa, some recent experiences have raised concerns about inconsistency in food freshness and quality. Diners have reported issues such as overly seasoned dishes, unexpected charges, and menu limitations during lunch hours. Despite these setbacks, loyal customers appreciate the generous portions and variety of offerings, from appetizers to signature entrees. For those seeking authentic South Indian flavors, Dakshin remains a favorite, though some caution is advised regarding specific menu choices.

Lately, the quality of food service that you get from this place is going down hill. We ordered chicken dish for take out once got back home realized that it was replaced with vegetarian dish. When called back to ask if this can changed, the guy at the counter suggested that the dish we got is pricier than the dish we ordered(as if that changes the dish from vegetarian to chicken). This place used to be my go to, since last 10-12 years, but the service needs to be updated with latest changes. A lot of new restaurants are giving better service than this location, better move on to next restaurant.
WORST chicken dum biryani i ever tasted, first of all it is not a DUM style Biryani, it is a ginger garlic rice with boiled chicken. Very salty , stomach burning due to heavy load of ginger garlic Flavour in Biryani. Veg biryani is no fresh and loads of heavy ginger garlic flavour and salty. HORRIBLE :
I've been visiting this restaurant since 2007, and they renovated it a few years ago. My favorites are their chicken appetizers and the South Indian dishes like dosas, vadas, Mysore bonda, punugulu, and their Dakshin Special Chicken Biryani.
I recently moved to New Jersey and was craving some delicious Andhra biryani. A friend of mine, who is a regular customer at this restaurant, recommended it to me. We decided to visit and ordered a couple of chicken biryanis along with some other food items.
I found the food to be excessively spicy for my taste, to the point where I couldn’t eat it. I had specifically requested a mild option, but I didn’t realize they didn’t offer one. When I called to express my concern, their customer service was disappointing and unhelpful. I was promised a call from the manager, but that never happened. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get a different dish or a refund. It seems that some places prioritize profits over customer satisfaction.
