They can make you special indian chai (tea) even though it's not there on the menu.
This place is my all time favourite now have been there 3 times in last two weeks just loved the food presentation and super friendly staff.

I used to love Indian food and it’s the most innovative Indian cuisine I’ve ever tried. Me and my friend ordered the tasting menu, so we didn’t even know what dishes would come up because they’re all chef picked/ seasonal. N the main also gave us a chance to taste all the curry that they have. Dessert was a very interesting ice cream stick. Overall, me and my friend love it very much, all their dishes surprised us, but their potion was a bit too big n they restricted that everyone on the same table need to order tasting menu. So we can share it and order something else. Overall, we paid about $75 per head with a glass of red.
Located at Surry hills... it’s a good place for indo-Asian food... they have a variety of drinks here too...
If you are looking for a full course meal then you should try the chefs tasting menu
In that you get a thali full of curries and naan and rice and sweets....
We ordered a beetroot paneer tikka and a samosa chaat in appetisers...
The tikka was tasty...
the chaat could’ve been better....
We also ordered 3 thalis
2 veg and 1 non veg
Food was delicious and very filling.
The presentation was very nice.
However the service was very slow....
We had to wait too long before we were served our drinks as well as our food...

Stunning Curry, Judy like the Indian Mauritian curry I’m used to, casual relaxed vibe and great staff, a must fir anyone wanting to savour Surry Hills and enjoy great food and a friendly atmosphere
This place in Surrey hills serves both excellent food and variety drinks. However we were just there to eat and really enjoyed the food. Thus making it my first review in Sydney.
Excellent service, very well done Indian ambience, good food. Enjoyed their hospitality.
Must try samosa chat and Malai kofta.
Other dishes we tried were tandoori fish, beetroot paneer, ghosht curry with Indian breads that were excellently cooked too.
Very late review. Went for a $10 buffet lunch with colleagues. I am not sure if the offer is valid anymore. Absolutely loved the ambience and the food. Good assortment of Indian dishes that tastes amazing. Highly recommended.
Food was really good -the papadi chat was fresh and the curries delicious. Loved the blue cheese naan. The only thing that let this place down is the service. There is such a thing as too attentive and it felt like we were being pushed through. As soon as we were done eating they cleaned our table as we sat there. As soon as they cleaned they asked if we wanted the bill. It runs the experience a little

Had the banquet, scrumptious selection of curries, a generous serve of about 8 or so for the main. Loved the ice cream tubes for desert as well. Yummy
The flavours here couldn't be more North Indian. I know it is called don't tell aunty and unauthentic but the lunch menu is amazingly authentic.
I have been here a few times now and every time the food has been very consistent in flavours. Great place to take friends and family on a budget night out.
We went there with bunch of office mates during lunch to try out $10 meal. It was a buffet lunch, take as much as you can, on your large plate. Food was delicious and good variety. Ambience is very inviting. Would definitely recommend.
The menu is short and simple but the food is literally finger licking good. Must try and is one of the best Indian cuisine that you can find in and around Sydney
Growing up in a heavily Indian populated neighborhood, I’m no stranger to Indian food. And I’m talking tiny little joint, with barely any decor, but ridiculously good food sorta Indian food. But for the uninitiated or something a little more hipster, I’d recommend Don’t Tell Aunty.
Came here with a group of friends, the self serve bar for beer and wine creates a fun and unique experience. The food was very colourful and flavoursome. If going with a group would recommend the starter of sauces. The butter dish was the nicest.

Bye Bye 4fourteen, Hello Don't Tell Aunty looking very colourful with the ultramarine seating. The $10 Lunch Buffet advertised on the outside chalkboard was the first attraction for me. Keep in mind it's not exactly a 'buffet' as in all-you-can-eat for $10 but you can put as much on your large plate as you're willing to eat without wastage. If you need more then it's an extra $10 I believe. I managed to get a bit of all 7 curries on offer with a good amount of rice in the middle of my plate and some of the sides, relishes and raita. My tip would be to make sure you put enough rice to start. There's nothing worse than running out of rice for your curries on the plate. Pappadums were included but could benefit from being more crisp. I suspect they might have been prepared too far in advance and have lost some of their lovely texture as well as those colourful fun cheezel looking tubes. But for $10 it's great value for the variety and flavour and a great concept for the lunchtime locals as a cheap eat. Make sure you get some of that red lime pickles you see in the middle of my plate for some extra flavour kick and chilli heat. Service was friendly and welcoming. Decor pretty cool with lots of natural light and colourful surrounds. There's also a self service wine bottle fridge. So if in need of another bottle of wine. Just go up and get one for your table. It's like a liquor shop with dining tables hehe. I spy wine prices range from $48 to $190 per bottle.
We went here after hearing good things about the Melbourne branch, and we were very happy with the food. It was flavoursome, innovative, and I especially loved the decor of the restaurant. There was old-school Bollywood music playing, rendering a nostalgic, retro ambience. More than anything, the service was excellent. Our server was friendly, bubbly, and really easy to get along with. She made our experience particularly enjoyable, and I cannot speak highly enough of her. I hope this standard is able to be maintained into the future!
I love this place. First time going there with my friends and we truly love it. The food, the vibes & the pictures on the hall was amazing. We did the tasting menu $70 per person option, because we wanted to try all the food. And lord it was amazing. The customer service was amazing. Everything about this place was amazing. Definitely recommend this place.
Delicious food and drinks. Fun colourful decor. Friendly staff. We had the tasting menu and everything was so tasty. Portions were huge and we were so full. It was my birthday and they made it special and played a birthday song at the end too. Great place to catch up with friends with the fun vibe. Would recommend !
So happy with my experience here! Had high expectations coming here and they were definitely fulfilled! A bit on the pricier side ($30 per curry) and the serving sizes look small, but they definitely left you full and satisfied, and that garlic naan bread is an absolute must! The service is nice and friendly, and the interior is absolutely gorgeous! Definitely recommend!
Visited on a Tuesday night and it was completely packed (if you plan on visiting, I suggest you making a reservation). I have to say that this is one of the best butter chickens I have ever had. It was definitely the highlight of our meal, hence the 5/5. We also got a lamb curry and naan platter. The platter was a good option as we got to try 3 different flavors: garlic, plain, and sesame. The lamb curry was average. This place is $$ (30$ per curry) so maybe come with friends if you want to try more options.
Went for drinks and light meal with friends. We've heard so much about this place and it clearly didn't disappoint. The cocktails were amazing, the food especially the Pani Puri and Lamb were so good. Pretty interior to chill out with friends. Definitely recommend this place for a good modern Indian food and unique drinks
This is no doubt one of the coolest Indian restaurants in Sydney. Visited on a Tuesday night and it was like a weekend at any other place, so make a reservation- it’s very easy through GMaps. The food is definitely something you have to experience - go with an empty stomach and ready to eat as much as your budget allows. Cocktails are also interesting. And if you’re looking for an interesting dessert try the Kulfi Ice Cream (not pictured)
We were looking for a place to satisfy our craving for authentic Indian cuisine for the last 4 years in Melbourne but couldn’t find any. This place in Sydney is the closest it can get. Amazing food with perfect flavours and great vibes! We enjoyed our night here and definitely coming back next time in Sydney.
