Pretty good brunch - but it would be better not to offer toast with the omelette. No matter what kind of bread you request, what arrives is one lonely slice of what looks like wonder bread, unbuttered, on a separate dish along with frozen, unspreadable butter. If it's just one small slice of packaged bread, why not butter it and put it on the plate instead of crowding the table with this extra plate of diner-quality, cold, unbuttered toast and frozen butter. It definitely lowers the tone. And don't ask me if I want wheat or rye when all you're really offering is white.

Excellent service coupled with terrific food in a welcoming environment made for an outstanding evening

Those who ordered steak and salmon loved it. Those that ordered chicked parm did not. Restaurant was very loud it was hard to have a conversation.
Laura
Everything was delicious and staff was awesome! The inside was beautiful and loved the wine flights!

We just celebrated our anniversary by treating ourselves to a meal here for the first time and we were blown away. We had the best waitress who gave use such wonderful suggestions and made sure our wine glasses were always full! From our apps, to dinner, to dessert each bite was delicious! We can’t wait to go back and try more!

Cafe Aura is an absolutely fantastic spot—elegant, warm, and perfect for any occasion. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels classy but comfortable, with great lighting, beautiful décor, and attentive service that makes you feel taken care of right away.
The food is outstanding. Every dish is prepared with real attention to flavor and presentation. The steaks are tender and perfectly cooked, the pasta is rich and flavorful, and the appetizers are all thoughtfully crafted. The cocktails and wine selection are also excellent and pair beautifully with the menu.
Service here is top-notch—professional, friendly, and always on point without being overwhelming. It’s one of those places where everything just feels smooth and well-run.
Whether you're celebrating, having a date night, or just want a really good meal in a nice atmosphere, Cafe Aura delivers every single time. I’d definitely come back and highly recommend it!

We had an excellent time at cafe aura for brunch this past Sunday. The food is excellent, great service, steady flow so you don't feel rushed to get in and out. Espresso martini was delicious and we will definitely be back!
The food was amazing and the drinks were perfectly made. Gourmet dining and affordable prices.

Overall this restaurants atmosphere was clean, beautiful and inviting. The wait staff was slow but pleasant and accommodating. The wine and liquor list was on point with a very nice amount of good quality choices. The menu had a nice variety and the prices were standard for what I expected. I was expecting excellent Italian cuisine given the menu but unfortunately the food fell very short. The bread service with olives was a nice start which we enjoyed. We then had the Clam chowder which tasted watery and flat. Even with salt added it was not delicious. The mussels with curry appetizer was the best thing we ate. The veal Parmesan had sauce that was described as tasting like canned spaghettios and again very flat and tasteless. I had the lobster linguine special which was okay but lacked complexity and flavor. For dessert the Creme brûlée was as expected but the key lime pie was much too tart and lacked the sweetness to balance it. Overall we wanted very much to like it and it was very nice atmosphere for a date or such but we would not return for the food quality

Only thing I would change is making sure to be seated in main dining room. Our reservation was for a table for 2 and we were seated in the back room which is fine for a private party but nothing like sitting in the main dining area which is where we have always dined in the past. Totally different atmosphere.

We had our wedding dinner at Café Aura and everything was absolutely wonderful. Darlene and the entire staff were incredibly responsive, attentive, and accommodating throughout the whole process. From the service to the atmosphere, everything exceeded our expectations. It was truly a great experience and we’re so glad we chose Café Aura for such a special moment. Highly recommend!

Normally very good. This past visit my veal was a little greasy and bland. Will try again- hoping was just an off night.
