Have dined here with great service, food, and drinks. Everything was off during this visit. Staff was hanging out near our table with louder conversations than any of the other customers’ tables. We got our drinks but lost contact with our waitress once a bigger table came in and she focused on them. Even the empty glasses on the edge of the table weren’t enough to get anyone’s attention. When I finally caught her on her way to attend the other table, I asked for our check. Made a reservation for another restaurant— great move. The service there was phenomenal as was the food and drinks. Hope Aura gets their act together!

Nice ambiance, not noisy. Good food, small portions for the price. Service was good, not great. Lamb rack had very little meat on it. Restaurants at this level, I wd expect more attention to details. Duvel beer sd be served on a glass. Overall a good restaurant, and I would go back.

Another amazing date night at Aura!! Place was very busy and we had a reservation for 7pm. Showed up at 7pm and our table was ready within five minutes. Server was great and the food was perfect as always. Cephus stopped by multiple times to see how our visit was going. One of the best Espresso Martinis I have ever had. This is a must for anyone looking for a date night, a small get together or even a nice lunch.

First time at Aura and we were impressed! All the staff was so friendly and helpful. I had the prix fixe menu for DSM Wine week and it was phenomenal with amazing wine pairings. The entrees are a bit pricey so my husband opted for a couple tapas dishes and helped me eat my meal. The Brussels sprouts were some of the best I’ve had in a restaurant.

We had a fairly loud group so it was nice we were seated fairly far in the back. We ended up with only appetizers and drinks, but the servers weren't disappointed. Nice place. We'll be back.

Had never had the chance to eat dinner here and my fiancée and I thought it would be a nice place to go for date night.....and it was AMAZING!!! She started off with a glass of wine and I had a smoked old fashioned. The presentation of the old fashioned was spot on and the smokiness of the drink was amazing. We both had steaks for dinner (12oz NY for her and 8oz Filet for me, Oscar-style of course!!) and we brought in a nice bottle of wine that was decanted by the wine expert that they have on staff (Cephus). Dinner was amazing, steaks cooked perfectly and the sides were very flavorful. Added on a nice piece of Caramel Brulee Cheesecake for desert and it was a great finish to the meal. Jason, the GM, was awesome and checked in on us multiple times to make sure everything was perfect for us. Our server was also perfect from beginning to end, very friendly and energetic (unfortunately I can not remember her name). Overall a great experience and we will definitely go back soon. (We are signed up for a wine dinner in a few weeks)

Our first visit to Aura was incredible. The steak deburgo and tomahawk pork chop were excellent. Everything from the cocktails to the appetizers, the main dish, sides and dessert were all delicious. The staff are hilarious and the vibe was just fun, a good time all around. We will definitely be back.

Loved the Korean cauliflower, fries, potstickers and mussels. The mussel broth is delicious. We asked for a little more bread to dip in the broth which they happily brought. The chocolate bomb for dessert was wonderful.

We appreciate your care for our hearing-impaired people in our party. You lower the music, a huge help. You put us in your small side room, an excellent choice! Your server was kind, efficient and friendly. Your food was tasty and well prepared. All around, everyone had a great time. We'll be back. Thank you!

Aura has been one of my favorites. However the service levels have dropped recently. In the course of dinner, we were interrupted at least a dozen times checking on food, water etc. plus server did not know to allow a taste of wine when ordering the bottle. Totally appreciate attentive service but this was just annoying especially when they would just interrupt a conversation. Unfortunately I don’t think we will return.

This was our first time coming here and we loved it! The service was outstanding - just like the food! We had the pork dumplings for an app- SO GOOD. We shared the knife & fork Caesar salad and that was a perfect choice. I had the Chicken piccata - so tender and flavorful! The delicate Parmesan crust was phenomenal. My husband had the deBurgo and it was equally delicious. Dessert offerings sounded amazing but we’ll try those another time! Can’t wait to go back! S. Mudlaff

Six of us dined during Restaurant Week and had, we all said, the best RW dining experience EVER. There were wonderful options for each course - everything we tried was declicious. We only wished we had time to go twice that week, but our schedules were full. AAAA++++ We'll be back to try the regular menu soon.

We had a nice experience. They are open for lunch. Not sure why a lot of restaurants do not around here. The food was good, although the salad had too much dressing on it, however, it was tasty. Next time, we'll order the dressing on the side. We love the tapas menu because it gives you the opportunity to try several things without committing to a large plate of food you may or may not enjoy. The service was excellent, and we received a complimentary dessert as it was our anniversary. All in all, it was a positive experience. We'll be back

Very nice ambience and a very relaxing atmosphere. Acoustics are well controlled… you can hear the music, you can hear the person across from you speaking at normal levels. I had the salmon which was cooked perfectly, wife had chicken picata which she said was good but the sauce might have been a touch heavy. Happy hour drink prices are very good. We’ll be back.

We started our meal with the Korean cauliflower that everyone at the table enjoyed including my brother who doesn't normally like cauliflower. My brother and I ordered the salmon, my wife ordered the shrimp scampi, and my sister-in-law ordered the chicken rigatoni. Everyone loved their meals and drinks. My wife and I shared the delicious chocolate lava cake for dessert.
