This was my second time at Aurora Brooklyn, and unfortunately the experience was disappointing. The server was rude and not welcoming at all, which really set the tone for the visit. It felt like we were only treated decently after they saw how much we ordered and the amount we spent, which is not how hospitality should work.

The food was good. The manager was so cool, the staff were awesome. You can definitely enjoy Italian food with a twist. A dinner date and your partner will forever remember that night.

Amazing food, amazing atmosphere. I had branch and another day dinner with my husband, it was very delicious. Eggs Benedict was so tasty 😋.

Relaxed and rustic but elevated vibes. Very solid food, and a great cocktail and wine list. Also large enough where you can most likely walk in without a reservation. If the lamb is on special, you must order it.

Food was pretty good: ordered lamb and pasta. Took 1 hour to get our food which is way too long

Came here on a weekend for lunch. The space is quite big so we probably didn’t need a reservation, but we booked one just in case. There was an Italian family sitting next to us chatting with the staff in Italian, which gave us the impression this might be a solid spot for Italian food.

We ordered the squid ink cavatelli and the paccheri. The cavatelli was tasty, but the paccheri was disappointing—it came sitting in a pool of oil and was really under-seasoned. Just felt like it was missing something.

We wanted to ask for some salt, but our server was hard to get hold of. Tried to get her attention a few times but no luck, and it took quite a while before she noticed us.

Overall, a bit underwhelming given the vibe and the menu.

Food was very mediocre and expensive. Would’ve rather had Forma for $15.

Can’t comment on the food but the cocktails were delicious. It’s a warm, dimly lit restaurant with romantic lighting. The garden looks beautiful for warm evenings although nobody was out there due to the excessive heat. Our server was efficient, although not especially warm. All of the food going out to other tables looked incredibly enticing so we would like to return for dinner.

Beware the $20 kids pasta - and they left hungry. Their extraction hustle is in bad faith.
