Dakshin

If you are visiting Dakshin for the first time, the best way to get a taste of what is on offer is to opt for the Sarvottam Thalis, which are available in 5 variants including sea-food.

Simply South

When you have renowned 'Chef Chalapathi Rao', who was earlier associated with Dakshin, at the helm, you know that the food is going to be food. And Simply South does not disappoint. Order for the Vegetarian Thali and augment it with a couple of Non-vegetarian sides from the a la carte selection, which does a great job at representing the stunningly diverse and rich culinary legacy of the Southern states. The thali is available only at the Film Nagar outlet from Monday to Saturday for lunch.

Ulavacharu

Ulavacharu is credited with pioneering several distinctive dishes that have now gone onto become a staple at other restaurants of the similar genre. While it is the terrific Pulaos that are the showstoppers at Ulavacharu. They also serve some incredible thalis featuring dishes from coastal Andhra, Rayalaseema, and Telangana. 6 different thalis are available at both the outlets of Ulavacharu every day for lunch; however, they are prepared in limited quantity and run out within a couple of hours.

The Spicy Venue

The Vegetarian Thali at The Spicy Venue is the perfect representation of the simplicity and elegance of Telugu cuisine. It has the simple dishes like the Pappu or the Cabbage Fry that will win your heart. Do not forget to end your meal with a portion of their addictive Apricot Delight.

Kakatiya Deluxe Mess

For decades, the no-frills eateries known as ‘Mess’ have been satiating the afternoon hunger of employees. While most Hyderabadis have a favourite ‘Mess’ that they frequent, Kakatiya is arguably the most popular. Dining at Kakatiya is not for the faint-hearted; it becomes noisier and more chaotic than a ‘bazaar’ on weekdays. But there is a method to the madness and tables turn at a brisk pace. Everyone orders the stunning value-for-money Andhra meal and augments it with optional non-vegetarian sides such as Mutton Kheema and Chicken Fry.
