We visited a few weeks ago while on a get away to NYC…I was in the mood for tapas & drinks and Aura did not disappoint! Great service and delicious food & drinks in an intimate setting.

One of my favorite restaurants in the city and my favorite in the East Village! The food and drinks here are incredible; everything is delicious. And, the staff is super hospitable. They made an effort to learn my name and remember me whenever I come in. Love it here!

I went to Aura to celebrate my friend’s birthday. It was 10 of us, and the service, food, and drinks were beyond AMAZING. We felt very catered for, the food came out very fast and the quality was on point. The desserts were the cherry on the top to make the experience astonishing. I truly recommend it.
