Reviews for My Shanti by Vikram Vij in Surrey, BC
Happened to be in the area and realized how close we were to My Shanti and def had to give it a try! We were not disappointed!... Inside, beautiful! We ordered Vikram?s favorite snack which was toasted cashews and portobello mushrooms (added paneer) on likea naan pizza- delicious! Then we had the jackfruit curry and butter chicken with garlic naan, both very tasty! Finished off theevening with the Dessert Sampler. Glad we got this so we could try a bit of the rice pudding, gulab jamun & pistachio ice cream.Yum! Service was top notch from everyone including Vikram! He happened to be in and was working the room, talking to all thecustomers and even clearing tables! Unforgettable experience! Many other things on the menu we would like to try! We?ll be back!

Exquisite experience due to wonderful service. Due to circumstances we were having a late dinner and figured we would come here... since it was open later than other restaurants and of course we couldn't ignore the name of Vikram Vij. Right off the bat wewere welcomed amicably by the servers despite our rather late arrival and served right away. Numerous times we wereenthusiastically greeted by our server, water-filled, and even given sugar when asked for. We ended up ordering Vik's favoritesnack, the better chicken, some rice and the eggplant bhorta along with a mango lassi. Out of these options, I would recommendeveryone order Vik's favorite snack, especially lovers of portobello mushroom. The flavor just stands out wonderfully among thesauce and cheese. It's just a great invention. In my humble opinion, everything else was good but not so much that it wowed me.The better chicken was definitely a twist and good change on the classic butter chicken but I think I would have preferred a bitmore spice to it or if I had been asked for spice levels as an option. The interior decor is just awesome and even the exteriordecor too. The ambience led to a wonderful late dinner experience and I would recommend everyone try this place out at leastonce in their life.

I've been here many times but this is my first time reviewing it. Absolutely love their food. Attention to quality, taste and... ambience. Service is also excellent. I generally order new items each time I'm here but one dish is always a must, Bikramsfavourite snack. It is awesome. It's a Naan with some rich sauce and mushrooms. Love it love it, please get me anotherone. This time around I tried the Chicken Korma which was flavourful and decadent. The Eggplant Bharta was different in a goodway with the sweetness from the peas. Amritsari fish was nice and tender. Bikrams snack was just awesome. Can't wait to goback for more ???? Read more
Great service, delicious food, unfortunately high noise level. Restaurant needs som sound dampening, as it all just bounces off... of the hard walls and windows. Even some wall hangings would be helpful. We found it almost impossible to have aconversation. Vikram Vij himself was there, circulating among all of the tables and even serving. Good dining experience. Wellworthwhile. Prices very reasonable for the quality of the food and service. Read more

IS TO DIE FOR. i love this place if i could come here every single day iwould. Read more
Impossible to adequately express how much I enjoy this restaurant. It's so much more than just "going out to eat". It is an... EXPERIENCE! The decor has an air of authenticity, but elegant. The staff is welcoming. I always feel like I am visiting family!It's easy to feel relaxed and spend time enjoying the reinvented traditional dishes. Make sure that you have a designated driverbecause the cocktails are masterful. My favourite has Gin and Ginger...And save room for dessert. There is a flight of threethat is perfect for sharing!

Was quite impressed by the food and drinks here. The drinks were quite unique and overall were mixed quite well. We ordered the... gol guppay shots and paneer pakoras for appetizers. The gol guppay were great and paneer pakoray were nice and crispy. For ourmains we ordered the shai paneer and vegetable sabzi. The shai paneer was really good and wasn't overly rich and heavy. Thesabzi tasted fairly fresh as well. For desert we got the sampler and all 3 deserts were fairly decent. Service was kind of slowhowever and it took a while for us to get served and also to get the bill. The staff seemed to be more focused on the biggerparty tables. Read more
