    Everything was great at Shanthy. The service was impeccable, the food was of good quality, with an outstanding price/*quantity*/quality ratio (we were not able to finish the food, and that's new for me and my wife). This restaurant is an hidden gem. Highly recommended.

    We had been at this restaurant a few years ago. Already then the food was excellent. Their menu is extensive with a wide variety of Indian and Ceylonese dishes. The recent makeover of the interior has lifted the ambiance to a higher level. The staff is friendly and helpful when you need assistance making your choice..All together definitely worth another visit!

    We enjoyed all the dishes except the Mutton Biryani. Never experienced peas & tomatoes in a biryani. However the meat was nice and tender. Starters were very delicious. Service was excellent.

    We loved our dinner at Shanty last night, the food was absolutely delicious, the best Butter Chicken we had in a long time! The chef brought us the food to our table to describe the dishes and the waiters were very friendly and attentive to their guests. I would highly recommend this restaurant!

    Really enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and excellent food. Small place but very tasteful and not as kitschy as a lot of these restaurants usually look. Staff was very friendly and quick to serve. Clean and tidy. Recommended!

    Good food taste. Service very slow for everything (to order, receiving order etc) right from ordering to bill payment.

    Toppers. Had the most amazing curry here tonight. The newly renovated restaurant is stunning. Very cosy but still modern and fresh. The staff are very friendly and it’s great that they maintain such high standards.

    The food was nice and the people working friendly and welcoming. The place has been refurbished and it is nice, however I do miss the Indian touch.

    This is a lovely family business with tradition in the city and delicious dishes. The remodeling made it even nicer for the atmosphere. Highly recommended!

    Enjoyed an amazing dinner at Shanthy! As an Indian I can say that they truly serve the most delicious Indian food in Hilversum. Every dish tastes fresh and authentic and clearly made with love. every time I eat at Shanthy, it gives me the feeling of being back in India again! Keep up the good work.
