   The passport Dinner was incredible. Each course was paired with a delicious cocktail. The appetizer, main course and dessert were absolutely delicious.

   Last night we celebrated a special birthday dinner with a party of 8 devoted foodies from Long Island and NYC. For most of us this was our fourth,fifth or sixth time eating at Aura not to mention the literally hundreds of times breaking bread at DaNicola in Hewlett. I can honestly say that the quality of food and creativity of every appetizer and main course were simply & flavory spectacular. We literally tried everything on the menu and drank multiple bottles premiere red wine. The food and the service experience keeps getting better!!! Thank you Nicky and the attentive management team for a fantastic night out. Special props to our flawless server Tamara!! cheers🍸

   I had an excellent experience dining at Aura Saturday night. Food was delicious, service was just as good, I believe it was worth every dollar. It was a bit loud but overall I recommend dining here.

   We had the Thursday special food and drink pairing. It was Moroccan night. Although I’m not a fan of spicy food, I found the small amount of spice enhanced the taste of the fish I had. The two drinks with the meal were excellent although the expresso martini at dessert was not to my taste but I was too full to care. Service and ambiance was great Highly recommend

   I was hoping that the new restaurant takeover from the previous restaurant would have been good. However, we waited ten minutes for the receptionist, the acoustics were still terrible and the Mediterranean choices reminded me more of a steakhouse. The salad and lamb chop was good but not good enough to want to return.

    A quick review… well outed drinks… the “Kami”was excellent. For appetizers the Octopus was tender and tasty. As was the Harvest Salad, but the waitress Yarielis said that they wouldn’t split it in 2… we would have to do it ourselves. ( We were sharing the octopus and salad). This was a negative for a pricy restaurant. The filet of sole was delicious and well prepared, but the Salmon was actually tasteless and somewhat overcooked. Worst of all, the noise level is like a nightclub… totally unacceptable. And the staff, rushing around knocked into my chair 7 times, and the table next to us at the corner of the row had it even worse. Ah well !!
