From Shanti's website:

Taste of India - Shanti was created to bring quality ethnic food to Dorchester, South Boston and the surrounding areas. Shanti began with just Indian cuisine, but quickly expanded due to the diverse tastes of our community. Today, Shanti proudly serves a blend of Indian, Pakastani and Bangladeshi foods.

More than 10 years after its inception, Shanti continues to proudly serve fresh, authentic South Asian cuisine. The menu has numerous traditional items, such as Mulligatawny soup, Indian salad, Samosas dishes, tikka dishes, naan, Roti, poori, Tandoori specials, kebobs, vindaloo, curry, raita and so much more.

You are welcome to dine at our restaurant and become immersed in the sights, sounds and aromas of South Asia. Enjoy the Taste of India and you'll become a regular, too!
