Dakshinayan, Juhu
7 people recommend, 2 warn against itvia X, r/mumbai9 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Dakshinayan's Mumbai recommendations are represented by its repeatedly named Juhu outlet. One Juhu recommendation is specifically for breakfast, podi dishes and sheera; another commenter describes the restaurant as a convincing South Indian option. In the wider pool, one diner praises podi idli and another prefers its dosas to Benne, without specifying an outlet. There are practical and taste caveats: one Juhu commenter reports a long weekend wait and shared tables, while another finds the restaurant overhyped. The overall recommendation is positive but not a promise of short queues or universal agreement.

Says waits are shorter than at the Bandra alternative and the dosas are better.
