Boston's Best-Kept Secret Is Out
Don't Tell Aunty is Boston's first Indian gastropub — bold spices, craft cocktails, live beats, and a late-night menu that gives you every reason to stay out. Aunty doesn't need to know.
Don't Tell Aunty | Our Story
The Name Says Everything
The name winks at you — what happens here is too good to explain at the family dinner table. We didn't pick it by accident.
Indian Spice Meets Gastropub Energy
Boston had never seen an Indian gastropub before us — so we built one. South Asian flavors collide with a modern sharing-plates format in ways neither could pull off alone.
Dishes You Won't Stop Thinking About
Tikka Tots, Podi Wings, Okra Fries — rooted in real technique, not gimmicks. Padma Lakshmi came in, ate, and posted about it. That says enough.
The Room Transforms After Dark
Next door to Berklee, our DJs and live performers blend Indian and Western rhythms into a soundtrack that shifts the room. The Night Owl menu kicks in at 10:30pm — some nights are just getting started.
Right Here on Boylston Street
Steps from MGM Music Hall on Boylston Street — in a neighborhood that already knows how a great night feels. You came for dinner. You stayed for the whole thing.
