Dakwala is an Indian restaurant with a difference, bringing the flavours of Bombay's canteens to the heart of Newcastle.
A recent addition to the city's dining scene, Dakwala opened its doors on Grainger Street in spring 2024 introducing a riot of flavour to local foodies with a menu that reflects Bombay's rich culinary heritage.
Its vibrant dining room and bar set the scene for enjoying small plates like Karwari soft shell crab and crispy okra fries and heartier mains Goan fish curry and curried black chickpeas - all perfectly complimented by a tempting cocktail list equally evocative of Bombay.
Open early 'til late, it's the perfect spot for lunch, dinner or late-night eats and a must-try for lovers of true Indian cuisine.
