We have been regulars at the restaurant for quite some time now, and the experience was never lesser than excellent. Not only are all the staff very courteous, but even the chef (Sankara) makes it a point to talk to guests to make sure that the food part of the experience goes smooth.

Went for team lunch. Has very authentic Andhra Pradesh feel to the place. The veg food is tasty and they have a good variety. No buffet but Thali is available. Foreigners might like it more as the food is not very spicy. My colleagues did not like the non veg dishes at all. Overall it is okay to visit once... More

Dakshin @ ITC Kakatiya has had a special place in our gastronomical journey & delights since its inception - Mr.Dharma, ambience and excellent food had been a familiar site from the beginning - Mr.Shankar, the chief chef always doles out our favourite dishes and needless to state that Mr.Shiva and his ever smiling team make us always feel at home.

Candle light dinner at Dakshin for our first date has indeed left me and my fiancée with a breathtaking and superb experience that is indescribable in words.

For the not so frequent travelers like myself, the only food item I've associated with Hyderabad is the Hyderabadi Biryani, after eating a meal at Dakshin, I'd recommend that one does not take the road often taken, and should indulge themselves at the food this restaurant has to offer. Everything from the prawns, the mutton, chicken gassi, (many many more... More
