Dakshin Indian Restaurant Coming Soon

After dinner my wife said, "Ohh pistachios" NOT....those cardamom "thingees" are like eatting flavored wood.

I can't wait to try the buffet....I was very impressed with the quality of the food.

I ate there again on Tuesday evening and had a non buffet dish. It was lamb with onions and green peppers in a brown sauce. I forgot the indian name. It was excellent and of course served with rice and was 9.99. Both times I've been in there it was all Indian customers except for me, I guess this is a sign that the food is authentic. I was made to feel very comfortable and service is good. They seem to be doing a pretty good business already and I believe the restaurant owners and the International Market owners a few doors down might be the same. Their menu is very extensive, a big laminated sheet with both sides full. (and I didn't know what most of it was). The server did explain to me the dishes that I inquired about. I'm glad to have them around as I live close by and hope you guys will give them a try if in the area. The Gordita trailer is good but created a lot of buz, in my opinion more than warranted after I tried but I think this place is much better.

They are completely different. I love Las Gorditas, but my one experience at Dakshin was better than Shalimar. So I'm definately going back soon. The menu is a tough animal to tackle. I'll be eatting at both periodically.

Would enjoy having an Indian restaurant open in Oldham County, but not sure the customer base would be large enough to support it....perhaps over in the Prospect area (?) I love Mexican, but there seems to be an abundance of them here in the OC (at least for a county our size).
