    Two of us had a wonderful dining experience. Nicholas was our lovely waiter. The special lasagna was just the size, the lamb chops with a reduction sauce was delicious. The appetizer of cheesy garlic bread with a marinara dipping sauce and a salad with spring mix, walnuts and gorgonzola started our fabulous evening. We will be back!

    They accidentally got overbooked and the manager made sure we didn’t have to wait long for dinner.

    We live in the area but hadn't tried this neighbor gem. To our surprise we gave it a try and now it's one of our favorite restaurants. We can't wait to go back and highly recommend it.

    We enjoyed a delicious meal with long time friends in a lovely candlelight setting at Aurora! Our server made good recommendations for the bruschetta as a starter and the spinach, Aurora and Caesar salads were perfect. My shrimp and penne pasta was delicious. Other tasty main courses were petrale, lasagna and chicken Parmesan. We couldn’t resist the desserts. The tiramisu was a a beautiful presentation and the spumoni ice cream was a special treat!

    The food was terrible. I asked the waiter how a specific dish was prepared and the waiter did not give an accurate description of how the food would be prepared. I would not have ordered it had I known the truth. A meal from the frozen food isle would have tasted better.

    Had a Christmas night dinner here and it was good. The servers were a bit exhausted, not surprisingly, by the time we arrived at 8:30. Despite that everything was good and the quality and pricing was good.

    Special Christmas menu. Started with toasty garlic bread, and delicious crab cakes that were fresh and accompanied with a tasty sauce. The pasta dishes were excellent.
