The tadka daal was amazing and very delicious. We ended up ordering it again the following day. The biryani was also good but a little bit too rich in spices for our taste. The chicken karahi tasted good. The salad was fresh, and the complimentary appetizer added a nice touch to our dinner experience.

The food was fine, but it just wasn't as great as I expected after reading the many good reviews and selecting Shanti for a celebratory meal. The chicken was dry in the chicken tikka masala, and the chicken vindaloo had some unpleasantly fatty pieces of dark meat. After bringing our food, the staff didn't check on us again until they cleared the plates. It's a good thing I brought my own water bottle, because they never refilled our water glasses.
