I got really bad 2-day long food poisoning after eating here. I believe it was from the lukewarm rice.
I will never eat food from here again.

I found this sweet little place absolutely charming. The naan was excellent - light but with a crispy char that ballooned up into an excellent sccop for the delicious sauces. We had bindi and butter chicken and a lamb curry. So good! Complexly spiced yet the heat didn’t overwhelm our friend with a sensitive palate. I would definitely recommend. (Caveat: I am not of Southeast Asian decent but eat the cuisine in New York and Detroit and San Francisco quite a bit.)

Best Indian food I've had in Boston. Restaurant was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday afternoon, but the $25 lunch menu option is such a great deal. Everything was delicious, my partner and I are already planning our next visit.

I was there last week with some colleagues. The service was great and their food was amazing. Their chicken is HALAL.

I enjoyed the food gear for the first time and will come back for sure. Very fresh clean environment and the food was spectacular with a good curry spice and very authentic rice and vegetables.

I’ve heard great things about Shanti, and they seemed to live up to expectations. It was pretty empty on a Friday night, and the interior is modern and classy. There’s complimentary papadam with tamarind, mint chutney, and tomato dip - the tamarind was fantastic!

I ordered the vegetable samosas, which were really fresh. They’re big and pack a lot into them, so well worth your money despite only having 2 per order. I got the malai kofta on the server’s recommendation and really liked it, especially the sauce.

Very good food as others have mentioned. Excellent butter chicken. Full of flavor. Neither excessively sweet nor spicy, not excessively heavy.

At a lower price point than I expected -- excellent value for money. I sort of assumed $18 for butter chicken was out of date but nope, it's up to date!

The food here was great. The mango lassi had good mango flavor and wasn’t too sweet. The appetizer platter was good and featured a nice variety of foods. I also highly recommend the chicken tikka masala paired with the garlic naan.
