South Asian Food in Fenway–Kenmore, Boston

“Best sit-down Indian restaurant in the area, best Butter Chicken in Boston (Saag Peneer is also amazing, everything has fantastic depth of flavor here). Try the tikka tots to start and go from there, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Great date spot and a perfect after-work drink spot if you want really good cocktails and amazing apps to go with them. I can't recommend it enough! The curry dishes are great for sharing if you come here with a group - the more the merrier!”

“Butter chicken and vindaloo were amazing. And also the tawa shrimp. Service was great - our server was so friendly. Restaurant was full. Be sure to go!”

“We dined in for lunch about a month ago. Lamb ghee roast is a must-try! It’s was absolutely delicious with bread. I loved the atmosphere, the light, decoration and of course the bar! The staff were super nice, great service and lively music!”

“A welcoming change to Indian dining experience in Boston. Fresh take on Indian food. The mushroom flatbread is a killer! You cannot go wrong with any dish you choose. The drinks are on point with a pleasant indian twist. Overall a much needed Indian addition to the Fenway area.”

“We ate at a lot of places in Boston but this may have been most delicious. Had OG butter chicken medium spice (best butter chicken I’ve ever tasted) my wife has the rasan ramen with chicken and we had some garlic naan. Honestly incredible”

“Some of the best Indian food I have ever had and the spices were awesome not overpowering”

“Oh My GOSHH!! Love love love the food! If you guys are around, please do dine in here! The vibe and the food! Our fav would be THREE CHILLI CHICKEN, and the SAAG Paneer! WOW! And thank you for the service Akshata! 🫶”

“Came here for dinner on a Tuesday night and the vibe was great. Good music, food and drinks. Kheema biryani was excellent. Nice flavors and spice level. Kerala fried chicken sandwich was also tasty. Washed it all down with Kashmiri Velvet and Tamarindo Disco. Would definitely come back here.”

“We went for lunch, where I had the butter chicken and garlic naan, and it was delicious!!! A reprieve from the chaos of Boylston, with beautiful interiors and warm service. The man serving us even remembered my friend’s usual order, fulfilling my dream of pretending to be a “regular” at somewhere trendy 😅 Highly recommend!!”

“10/10 experience at don’t tell aunty! I was really impressed by the menu, which was a blend of some delicious South Indian dishes and creative takes on pub-fare staples like fries & tater tots. Everything we ordered was delicious but the standouts for us were the butter chicken, goan fish curry (with the Malabar paratha!), chaat tots & mango lassi cheesecake. We’ll definitely be back - thanks for a great night team!”

“Such a good place. Great location, ambience food and service. Ordered Kale chaat, podi chicken wings 🔥, butter chicken, naan, rumali roti, rasam ramen , cucumber cooler and mojito. Each dish was excellent.”

“This place is so awesome!!!! The staff are so sweet, they personally came to talk to us and meet us. The food is unreal. Very authentic south indian eats, but in a fun fusion place. Obsessed with everything here :)))”

“Had a great time at Don’t Tell Aunty in Boston! The food was really flavorful and delicious, and the drinks from the bar were just as good. Loved the cocktails, the fun atmosphere, and the overall vibe of the place. The staff was friendly and made the experience even better. Definitely a great spot to hang out with friends, grab some drinks, and enjoy good Indian food. Would absolutely come back!”

“Great food and vibe. The okra fries and the kale chaat were especially delicious. Definitely try the mango lassi cheesecake and the gulab jamun sundae”

“Absolutely loved every second spent here - the food, the music, the staff - everything was impressive. All the cocktails were amazing. I would go back for Durga Complex anyday. We tried a few dishes - my favourite were the podi wings and butter chicken croquettes. The Parle-G sandwiches were a nostalgic elevation to a basic ice-cream sandwich.”
