I've been to the original Shanti in Dorchester years before, and liked it. But this was my first visit to their outpost in Roslindale. Their location made driving there a bit of a workaround. But one nice thing is, when you place an order online ahead of time, it gives you the option of curbside pick up. I was a bit late picking up my order. And then I still had to get it home before tucking in, so the bread was cool by then, the apps warm, while the entree remained hot. I gave their onion naan a go, and it was soft and good, but I'll probably go back to my garlic naan norm. The Veg Shanti Platter came with an assortment of their vegetable appetizers and 2 portions of each of 3 sauces. I only gave the sweet and tangy brown sauce a go since the other two tend to be spicy when I've tasted them elsewhere. There were 2 vegetable samosas (with a touch of heat in the potato filling), 1 aloo tikki patty (same, if I remember correctly), and a handful of vegetable fritters - some mixed, some likely quartered slices of potato, and I think I spotted a cauliflower one or two. Those weren't spicy, but were rather good. In place of my often ordered saag paneer, we got the malai kofta which came with either 2 or 3 (couldn't tell) rather sizeable vegetable balls hidden in a tasty vegetable cream sauce, which was accompanied with an order of basmati rice. This was ordered mild. It arrived spicy, north of what I'd consider to be light spicy, but manageable by me. Not so much by another diner though, unfortunately. I wonder if this was truly their mild, or if they read my order wrong, and defaulted to their normal spice level.

This is one of the best Indian restaurants in Boston. I've eaten here many times. There are lots of choices; hot and cold apps, different kinds of naan, with the main dishes having deep, robust, sweet, and creamy flavors. There is plenty of meat, chicken, lamb, and shrimp in each dish and many vegetarian/vegan choices as well. It's a good place to share a few dishes.The papri chat starter, lamb korma, and garlic naan are my favorites.The staff is very attentive.
This restaurant is inconsistent in the service and food quality. One day good, next day not so. For a restaurant claiming halal, their main image is a display of alcoholic beverages! One day, the person in the reception said their meat is not halal. Perhaps it was not a good day for that employee. For the price they charge for lamb curry, they won't substitute rice for a plain nun! You have to pay $4 more. Living in the Middle East for a few years, I got spoiled perhaps.
They screw up take out orders all the time. Check and double check. 3rd time in a row for me today.

Please refund my Money, food that I ordered to-go today, was bad. Bread was so hard, I actually have hurt my teeth after eating that hard rock bread . Samosa was tasteless and double fried, and definitely stale. I’m wondering as in what could be the reason for such poor quality food, when we are happily paying for good food? Majorly disappointed, and would request to be refunded!
I love the foods from here will definitely go next time again with my whole family.
