Food was on point, service like others have mentioned could use some TLC.
I’m giving Don’t Tell Aunty a solid 3 out of 5. The food was actually really great—we were dining with an Indian friend who confirmed the flavors were on point and authentic, which definitely says a lot. The drinks were also good, and the atmosphere was lively and enjoyable. Making a reservation was super easy, which I appreciated. That said, the experience was a little disappointing on the service side. As soon as we sat down, we were told we only had 90 minutes, which is fine if the service is quick and efficient.

Delicious food and kind staff! We will definitely be back and refer our friends!!!
Food tasted good but seemed as though they were having trouble in the kitchen (whether short staffed or another issue) and not communicative about the issue.

Music was at a good level and has a nice variety... read more
The food was great; however, the service was subpar! The restaurant needs to work on their service!
The food is average. Service is quite slow. We got our drinks after we had finished food.
The Kale Chaat was excellent and original. The Butter Chicken, and Garlic Naan were very good. The two "fusion" items we tried sounded better on paper than what we were served - the Kothu Bolognese was overly dense due to the use of shredded bread instead of noodles, and the flavors weren't very distinct. The Rasam Ramen seemed more like spaghetti in a spicy tomato soup base. It was OK at best. Not reminiscent of Ramen at all. I think it's great that they're trying to mix things up, but the recipes aren't all there yet. That... read more

They had a playful menu with standard Indian American fare and some off beat fusion dishes. The okra fries with tamarind chutney were amazing. Lively ambiance, but my group of four could easily carry on conversation over the music and din.
