   They kept us waiting for over 10 minutes to be seated. Took over 40 minutes just to get our appetizer. There was hardly anyone there and the service was inadequate.

   The food was overall delicious but I felt that it was a bit lackluster. I ordered ravioli which said broccoli rabe was part of the dish; I saw no trace of it. Disappointing, since it’s my fav veggie and would have ordered it as a side. The focaccia was pretty good, but it could have been less dry, and/or come with olive oil for dipping. The garden was lovely, and our server turned on the heat when we asked, but the two large group tables were absolutely obnoxious, literally screaming at one another like groups of teenagers in a cafeteria. It really detracted from the whole experience because we couldn’t hear one another across our little table. Next time I’ll avoid the garden…

   Was thrilled with our experience here! Looked for a special spot for a rare gathering of loved ones and Aurora definitely met the mark! Lovely ambiance, delicious food (everyone in our party of six thoroughly enjoyed their apps & dishes: pasta/fish/eggplant parmigiana etc), and very friendly service. Aurora makes their own gelato which was delicious with our valrhona chocolate cake - yum! Perfect spot - so glad we came here…

   We had a delicious dinner- delicate squash blossoms, perfectly cooked branzino w cauliflower purée and mushrooms, yummy crème brûlée. Attentive friendly service. A great meal! Would rather have sit in the restaurant instead of the courtyard but it was wonderful.

   Food was very tasty, we have the Duck and NY strip. Both were cooked the we wanted them. The shishito peppers were delicious. Food came out in a timely fashion and the service was on point and friendly. Cool environment!!

    Great restaurant depending on seating! The outdoor dining on street is covered and has doors but unfortunately they kept opening- the heaters turn one side of your face into a sauna while the door openings turn you into an icicle if it's colder out. I got a cold from the crazy changes, think if the doors would stay shut (waiters would close behind them but they would bounce back open) I would have zero complaints. Food overall was amazing despite bringing us the wrong dish at first, waiters were very nice and had good recommendations for wine.

    I stood at the host desk for 5 minutes before anyone came over, our server didn’t understand a lot of what we were asking for from the bar when ordering cocktails. It felt very hectic and not in a nyc vibe but in a understaffed vibe. We sat near kitchen and three different servers dropped plates of food and drinks

    Great food and great service. Very cute for a date night. It is pretty loud in here from time to time and they do get packed. The menu isn’t treat extensive so you’re not overwhelmed. The Focaccia and stratciatella are delicious! Would love to return in the summer!

    Busy day & servers kept getting a bit confused with peoples orders. I saw someone else get served my NY Strip Steak (along with my partners shrimp) then it went back to the kitchen and came back out 10 min later a bit cold , so was curious if I ate the plate which was served to someone else (the other customer even picked the steak and said “does this look medium well to you”) - I had ordered medium. Definitely should try and seat the amount of people you can serve at a high quality for the price you charge. On the positive side the quality of food was good! Tasted very fresh!

    I would definitely recommend making reservations! The place was packed and it was very pretty. The staff was attentive and kind. I loved that I heard some of the staff members speaking Italian. We sat in the glass enclosure which was beautiful and rustic. My only complaint was at times the staff members opened the outside door and mind you it was 19degrees that night! So we got chilly a few times! We loved our choices of food and drinks! Everything was delicious and fresh. I also liked that they paced the appetizers and entrees properly. Enough time went by between the meals. Drinks Evelina Rosemary-infused cappelletti, prosecco, grapefruit bitters Bosco Compass Box Artist Blend whiskey, pear puree, luxardo cherry liquor, honey-ginger syrup, lemon Appetizers Focaccia & Stracciatella Focaccia Romana, stracciatella, saba grape must, extra virgin olive oil Grilled Artichokes Meyer lemon & mint gremolata Entrees Tonnarelli Cacio E Pepe Pecorino romano, cracked black pepper Squid Ink Paccheri wild shrimp, lump crab meat, tomato sugo, chili, rustic breadcrumbs Dessert Affogato Gelato Flor di latte gelato, praline, shot of espresso We will definitely return!

    Traveled out of town… this was on our list to try! We were really looking forward to it. Unfortunately, the staff wasn’t friendly. They rushed us and said we had to place our apps and entrees together because the kitchen was “too small”. When we received our food it was absolutely delicious! That is the restaurants saving grace.
