Shanti

Indian restaurant · Dorchester

"Shanti slings some of Dorchester’s best Indian food, from the creamy chicken korma to the sweet-and-sour showcase of the papri chaat, but don’t skimp on desserts your next time here. The ras malai, cheese patties cooked in sweetened and thickened milk and served with nuts, is a must-try for fans of cheesecake. The gulab jamun are bites of bliss, too, with nuggets of fried dough soaked in syrup.  Shanti’s Dorchester location, along with its sibling in Roslindale, is available for limited indoor dining, takeout by calling the restaurant directly, and delivery via Toast. Shanti Cambridge is temporarily closed." - Nathan Tavares
