    Chili and garlic naan, chicken aamwala
    Bailey K.

    Dakshin claims to still be in the soft opening phase. Service was very slow, the server kept reminding us that they were in the soft opening. We had called ahead for a reservation for 7 or 8 a couple days ago. Unfortunately they were not ready for that. Three small tables were set up downstairs for us; we were all very smushed together where one lady was basically sitting on my lap. There was 1 other table in the restaurant occupied by others, then a 5 top followed after us. They were fed and gone long before we got our meals. The restaurant is not easily accessible by someone with mobility issues currently because there upstairs is not open. It is completely inaccessible for someone in a wheelchair. Bathrooms are upstairs and you have to go up a small spiral staircase to get there. It is located in the old Kasai restaurant, and the wood and stone appearance is left over. Beautiful. But, there seems to be no AC, it was very hot today and it permeated thru the restaurant. The food took forever, but it appeared worth it. Tasted good, lots of flavor, but portions seemed small for the price. We also were all aghast when we found out that the vegetable sampler appetizer did not come with dipping sauces for the samosas but the samosa appetizer did come with them, at our table at the same time. It seemed ridiculous that you could think that was a good idea. They also served 3 orders of garlic naan all together in one basket knowing several people ordered it and they were not sitting together. We did not have room for the large plates that were on the tables. The silverware were unnecessary because we got spoons with our food that came out. There were no knives given but everything had huge chunks of vegetables or chicken. We had to find napkins on another table. My soda was never given to me until the end of the meal when I asked where it was. We had to play musical plates and eventually set them up on the ledge out of our way. When it came time to split the check, the server became seemingly irritated and flustered. The server did check on us to remind us that they were in a soft opening and apologize for the wait. But every time we needed something as simple as a water refill, it felt like we were bothering him. I'll give it a while, but I'll be back to see how they change things.

    This was hands down one of the best Indian dining experiences I have had in Syracuse. Every dish was bursting with flavor, perfectly spiced, and beautifully presented. On top of the incredible food, the service was outstanding. The staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind, they made us feel so welcome from the moment we walked in. Can't wait to come back!

    This was FANTASTIC. I am counting down the days until I come back, that's how good it was. If you haven't been yet you really are missing out. The Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka Masala were full of flavor and had a nice, but not overwhelming, amount of spice, and the portions were large. I also recommend pairing them with the garlic naan and starting with the veg sampler, that was a great decision. Make sure to plan your visit or stop by next time you're downtown!

    Ive waited awhile to write this review because I was so upset! I was in the party with Bailey and everything she said happened ( i was the person sitting on her lap practically). I was very uncomfortable with the way we were treated with the excuse it's a "soft opening". We had a reservation so they should have been prepared. It seemed to me they were focused more on takeout than people eating in. No room on the table for our plates to eat our dinner so we had to maneuver to put extra plates on the ledge to make room. The food was ok but nothing to rave about. I ordered the Dum Biryani with boneless chicken. The chicken was on the very bottom and was very dry with no sauce. The naan was extra and 3 ordered were all together in one bowl so we had to separate them ourselves. The food took forever to come out even though only 3 tables were taken. The waiter came out several times explaining it was a soft opening as if that explained our service. Only the basement was open and I would have preferred eating on the main floor. Hopefully they will get more organized but I don't think I will be back after this fiasco.

Short wait time to order 10-15 minutes and short wait time for pick up. The small lobster roll is up to a whopping $26! It was fresh and packed with buttery lobster. The lobster tots were amazing, with a fair amount of lobster for $22. We shared both. The Brewery had cleared out a bit by the time we received food. Plenty of room at the bar and tables to enjoy our food. Huge improvement on two plus hour wait time last visit. But I think Mother Nature dictates the turn out at these events as well.

The truck opened right on time and it didn't take long to place my order. My order took about 10 minutes, 1 hot Connecticut Lobster Roll and 1 Cold Maine lobster Roll. It was a such a beautiful spring day I decided to open the back of my van and eat in the sun! ( There was no place to eat at this business.) The hot buttery Connecticut roll was tender and delicious, it had a nice amount of lobster meat. The other roll, the cold one had noticably less meat. I was disappointed but it was delicious and next time I'll try something else, people were saying that the lobster tacos and lobster quesadillas were very good too.

Cute crab shack ambience, it's a hot spot so order or arrive before the dinner crowd. My first visit was a Saturday around 6 and it was crowded and not a seat to be had! All the seafood platters being served looked amazing, so I knew I was in the right spot! I was greeted as I approached the counter and was assisted with my take out and recommended popular party sack combinations. I ordered #3 which includes a lobster tail, one cluster or 1/2 lb snow crab, 1/2 lb shrimp (I recommend requesting Head Off!) a piece of corn, and 2-3 potatoes. I chose Cajun seasoning and, very hot spice. Warning you best be a very spicy hot lover, it was challenging but loved it! I have already returned for a second time, also #3 sack added extra corn $3 and extra potatoes $3. CrabnGo special seasoning and still extra hot! Delicious not as over the top as Cajun Hot! $47 and change with the added corn and potatoes. $42 and change without. Only one quarter piece of corn first order and two potatoes. Love it! It's going to be dangerous now that I've tried this Cajun Seafood that makes you feel like you are in the Bayou! And the heat that matches!

This place smelled fresh as a daisy. Everything was clean. No bad smells. The staff were friendly and helpful. Drinks and apps came very fast, and dinner wasn't too far behind.

I very much enjoyed the ceviche and it was a large portion. My partner seemed to like the potatoes. I had the whole fish special. An interesting experience to say the least. No idea what kind of fish it was but it tasted good. Do not order this trying to look cool or attractive. This is a messy experience- not for a first date. My partner had a vegetarian entree, something with mushrooms. She enjoyed it. We had a total of 3 mocktails as well. Bill was almost 200 dollars. Steep for no booze and one person ordering all vegetarian. Take that into consideration when planning a night out as th drink menu looked great so you're destined to go above that if you booze. The tables were very close to each other and the dining room was loud. Not romantic in my opinion. Food was pretty good, rest of the stuff could use a little work.
