"At Indian restaurant Shanti, the meats are all certified halal, which means dishes like the tender tandoori chicken, excellent lamb korma, and more are up for grabs. Shanti has a second location in Roslindale." - Erika Adams
"The menu at Shanti in Savin Hill isn’t going to surprise you. Your tikka masalas, vindaloos, and papri chaats are all here, but it’s on this list because they’re all made about as well as any Indian food you’re likely to have between London and Edison, New Jersey. If you live nearby, their online ordering page should be on your favorites tab." - dan secatore
"I like that crowd-favorite Indian restaurant Shanti has assembled a Diwali catering menu to feed your whole crew, with panipuri, veggie and chicken tikka puffs, five different styles of biryani, and more; on the sweet side they’re selling 12- to 14-piece mithai boxes, individual bites of gulab jamun, five-piece sets of ladoo, and other mithai, with online ordering available." - Erika Adams
"Find a generous meal for $46 at popular Indian spot Shanti, where picks include the street snack pani puri, chicken momos, and lamb vindaloo. Shanti has multiple locations around town, but only the Dorchester restaurant is participating in Dine Out Boston, including Saturdays." - Nathan Tavares, Erika Adams
"Mini-chain Shanti, which has been open since 1999, specializes in curries and tandoori preparations, with tasty locations in Dorchester and Roslindale. For those who can’t choose, try the shanti mixed grill, which comes with a combination of tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, lamb tikka, shish kabab, and tandoori shrimp." - Karen Wilber, Eater Staff
