Don’t Tell Aunty will soon open at 1080 Boylston St, occupying the former site of Boloco. The restaurant’s parent company, Flying Lion Hospitality Group, is also behind local chain Boston Halal, as well as Woburn’s South Indian hotspot, Godavari.

CEO of Flying Lion Koushik “Babu” Koganti said that Don’t Tell Aunty will serve as an Indian gastropub, the first of its kind in the state. The venue promises a blend of good music, positive vibes, and Indian tapas-style plates.

According to permits filed with the city, the 1,500-square-foot space is currently undergoing minor interior renovations to accommodate the new restaurant. The establishment will feature a dining area with seating for up to 48 patrons, a bar with seating for up to 5, and a kitchen in the rear.

Koganti hopes to debut Don’t Tell Aunty within the next couple of months.
