Food was just ok. 2 people had Veal Limone, & it was tough. Our server was excellent. Always available but not overly in your face. Responded to all questions& problems promptly. The ambience was lovely. Liked the way the wait staff is dressed. The view of the lake was wonderful.

My husband and I came to Aurora to celebrate our 2 year wedding anniversary. When I made the reservation I had requested the patio which was the main reason we came to this restaurant. When we arrive the hostess took us to our table which was in the main dining room and never acknowledged our initial request to sit outside. When I brought it to her attention she claimed that the patio is never guaranteed which I can understand however, there were multiple open tables on the patio and she never initially acknowledged how we were unable to sit at our requested seat prior to seating us. The hostess did not relay to our server that we were celebrating anything nor did our server ask us when he introduced himself. My husband and I have dined and multiple fine dining restaurants and typically the service, acknowledgement of special occasions and guest experience is prioritized. We did not experience this at Aurora. We informed our server of our anniversary and he offered a complementary dessert however, by that time we had already finished our dessert and politely declined. The food was delicious! The steak bites were a little over cooked but besides that we had no complaints food wise.

What an amazing dining experience! Beautiful space and delicious food. The four of us all had the special Chilean sea bass and loved it! We also enjoyed excellent service. The only downside was that it was so hot and humid outside so the patio was closed. Not sure if they tried to recoup some space for more diners because the tables were really packed close to each other. Didn’t detract us from enjoying ourselves immensely though.

Great meal! We sat on the patio and enjoyed the lake views. The service was exceptional from the moment we sat down until we left. The drinks were good, food was great and overall it was an excellent meal.

This was my second time at Aurora, and it was just as good as my first time. The Branzino was simply and excellently prepared. But the Salad Rustica was a bit disappointing- only 2 chunks of mushy beets and very little cheese. Service was excellent. It would be nice to have table cloths! I will definitely return!

Thank you for your continued support. We’re glad to hear the Branzino and service stood out once again. Your feedback on the Salad Rustica and overall experience is appreciated and will be shared with the team. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

The noice level was unbearable. Too loud. The service was ok. Not enough experienced help. The hostess should have been more welcoming. The food was superb though.

The only reason I cannot give 5 stars is the attitude of the host staff and the fact that we had to wait 10 minutes at the bar before being asked if we wanted something. The food, on the other hand, was excellent! Well worth the price.

Staff was at the level. Food consistently good. One thing I noticed, valet is now using the entire front lot. I support valet but they should be hoofing it to the back for cars, that’s the point of the service.

We appreciate your support and are glad you enjoyed the food. Your point about the valet service using the entire front lot is noted, and we will address that to ensure a smoother experience. We hope to see you again soon for another great meal at Aurora On The Lake!
