" Came here for a quick lunch and I was pleasantly surprised by how great the food was. I ordered the daily special which was a risotto full of seasonal vegetables, bursting with flavors. The atmosphere felt very relaxed; great for a casual lunch. The only issue was that I felt the portion was a bit small for the price. Still, I would return for another try. I’m curious about their dinner menu now! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited Aurora for a family dinner recently, and while we enjoyed the food, the service left something to be desired. The food was undeniably delicious; we shared the squid ink pasta and the special braised lamb shank, both fantastic. However, the server seemed rushed and wasn’t very attentive to our table, which made the experience less enjoyable. The ambiance was nice, though. Overall, I’d recommend for the food, but be prepared for a wait if it’s busy. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Aurora Brooklyn last weekend for brunch, and I was absolutely blown away! The ambiance is charming, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. I ordered the ricotta pancakes, and they were fluffy and bursting with flavor. My friends tried the eggs benedict, which they raved about. We ended our meal sharing the tiramisu, and it was the best I’ve ever had - deliciously creamy and not too sweet! This place is a must for anyone looking for a delightful brunch spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wasn’t sure what to expect, but I’m so glad I chose this place for a dinner outing! Initially, I was drawn in by the lovely decor and outdoor garden area. We had the crab cakes and the heirloom tomato salad, which were fresh and flavorful. For the main course, I went with the carbonara and oh my goodness! It was rich and creamy, definitely fulfilling. Service was attentive without being overbearing, making the meal relaxing. The only downside was that the prices felt slightly on the high end, but the quality justifies it. Definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience overall at Aurora. The swordfish I had was overcooked, and the flavor was not as rich as I had hoped. However, the ambiance is charming and there's definitely potential. The service was friendly, but I felt neglected during our meal. I might give it another shot but would prefer to order something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve heard so many rave reviews about this restaurant, so I had high hopes when I finally made my way here. The atmosphere was beautiful, especially with the outdoor seating. I ordered the squid pasta and it was delightful! However, the service was lacking during our visit; it took too long to attend to us, which dampened the experience a bit. Still, great food overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place was simply wonderful! I attended a small wedding here recently, and everything from the decor to the food was excellent. Their staff were incredibly helpful, making sure everything ran smoothly. The seafood choices on the menu were some of the freshest I’ve had, particularly the octopus appetizers. I would definitely recommend Aurora for any fancy event - they did not disappoint! " (*Curated Review*)
