“Saw this place when I was at Panera bread. I stopped by and ordered a large pepperoni. I have to say it beats out all the large trash franchises. The young man taking my order was very nice“

“Excellent pizza’s and super friendly service - a “go to” pizza joint.“

“Awesome pizza. Great customer service. Food is fresh.“

“Aurora Italiana was an exquisite culinary oasis, luxuriously nestled in West Bloomfield.

Perhaps the most alluring element of this restaurant is the atmosphere. Upon entering, I felt transported to the kind of exclusive & elite restaurants found in New York or Beverley Hills. The lighting & mood was magnificent as a walked through the drapes of cherry blossom-like flowers and intriguing art. The staff was superior! They were hospitable, accommodating & knowledgeable!

Most important, the food was exceptional! I started my meal with the burrata, it was as fresh as that you would find in Alto Adige! The caesar salad was just what should be expected, crisp, flavorful & just the right balance of dressing, cheese & romaine. The filet mignon could be cut with a butter knife & was tender, flavorful & aged to perfection!

We will be sure to visit Aurora Italiana again very soon - MANGIA!“

The food was excellent, the ambiance perfect, and our guardian angel, Besnik, provided excellent suggestions all throughout the night!

“Great food, great service and a very cool atmosphere. I was there for lunch with customers for work, but I would love to come back at night. The Bocce Ball lanes looked to be in good shape and I bet it would make for a fun night with friends. I had the caprese panini. Great flavor, good crisp, and just enough to fill me up.“

Salvatore scallopini in Birmingham, was on the mark with great Italian dishes.
The food was wonderful. Excellent flavor.
The server , Carter gave us excellent service. Very attentive and friendly.
I was also very impressed that the owner came over to our table to ask us how our dining experience was going.
I would recommend this this restaurant to all.“

We were a party of 6 and the restaurant was more than accommodating. Our service was extremely exceptional...Rebecca was so great she timed out the food and course perfectly.our glasses were always full and she brought out a complementary dessert with a candle that was much appreciated..thank you Rebecca for making our time so lovely!!!“

“This restaurant was recommended. This restaurant was amazing delicious food, seasoned to perfection. The atmosphere outside was amazing as the service was top notch“

“I love this restaurant, and our family enjoys coming on special occasion, and the food is always fantastic, and the service is always just wonderful.

We had my father in law's funeral luncheon here this past weekend and everything was incredible. The service, the room, the food, our main waitress was sweet as can be, and the guys helping her were great.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful everything was.

My sisters and I went to school with some of the Picano kids (Chrissy) and we have always loved and supported this restaurant and we will continue to.“

“Great thin pizza - cooked quickly in a wood fire oven - salad was very fresh“

“I stopped by the Olive Garden in Rochester Hills recently, and honestly, it felt like stepping back in time. The place looks old … not in a charming way, but more like it hasn’t been updated in years. There’s definitely a sentimental side to it, especially for someone who used to love Olive Garden, but that feeling can only carry so far.

The chain’s overall quality seems to be slipping. From the service to the food, everything felt just… average. It wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t great either. You can still count on the breadsticks and salad to do their job, but beyond that, the dishes don’t have the flavor or consistency they used to.

It’s a 3-star experience for me , mostly for the memories, not the meal.“

“The whitefish was delicious, but the pasta was only good, not excellent. The minestrone soup was good, not great, and it was more like regular vegetable soup, not minestrone. The service was great, and the prices were reasonable. Overall, it was a good experience.“

“The food was incredible but even better our waiter Tomas was the sweetest person ever. I hands down have never had such a good experience or waiter/waitress anywhere else. He was very kind and made sure we had everything we needed he was constantly checking up on us making sure if we wanted refills or needed something he could get it for us. Thank you Tomas.“

“Best Italian food in MI, absolutely love their food!“

“We sat outside on a marvelous fall evening, the staff brought over a heater that was a nice addition. The hand crafted breads were so delicious lovely choice of wines . We had the tasty gem salad, crispy chicken thighs, veal parmesean and of course Lucinanos bolognese. We shared everything and I can't say enough about the delicious flavors of everything. Thanks again !“

“What a find! Our golf group stopped in after golf and everyone enjoyed their meals. Great service. Yummy food. Can’t wait to work our way through the menu. And they have GF for me!“

“Went here for about three hours on my first visit to Detroit with my fiancé. She grew up on this place. I have traveled the world and believe this is the best pizza I have ever had. Also, their sandwiches are incredible Ashleigh the bartender was so cool and fun to interact with as were the rest of the patrons that were there.

Can’t wait to visit again. Will be a “must” meal next time I am in Detroit.“

My wife and I have been back many times just for her good cheer she seems to pass on to all around her! 5 stars for Stephanie and Como’s for having such a great staff!“

“I had the Chicken Athena tonight. Outstanding! Fresh ingredients including fresh olives, and chicken. You could pay 2-3 times more at other restaurants, and not nearly as good as Christine's. This place is a real find!“
