About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Romantic
Innovative

Innovative American with French Techniques. The menu at Aura Brasserie offers plenty for those who aren't too adventurous with their dining preferences as well as numerous options for those who may enjoy dining more 'outside the box'! Additionally, the Specials each day/night offer more delicious fun...often featuring more than American or French fare. Chef Perrier loves food, loves to cook and loves to 'play' outside the box. The truly adventurous can Reserve in Advance for Chef's 5-Course Tasting Menu (with or without pairings). Many 'regulars' aren't even offered menus as "Tasting Menu Only" is known by all staff as their dining preference!

New year's eve dinner at Aura was fantastic. Classic French fare was delicious, beautifully presented and filling. The service was impeccable. The wine list was varied and reasonably priced. The atmosphere was classy yet a tad noisy. We will definitely be back.

Sadly, Aura closed on January 1, 2017. We were very happy to have been a part of their last evening's New Year's Eve dinner. Always delicious food and a lovely ambience. We'll miss Aura!

Aura Brassiere offers consistently good food and excellent service. We had not been back for nearly one year, but they've made a step change improvement in decor and sound management. The menu is diverse and the service staff is attentive without being obtrusive. An excellent value for a night out on town or a special occasion.

It was a overall a good experience since my family really seemed to enjoy it! Not the best French meal I've had but it wasn't bad. The pumpkin soup wasn't anything special. The family liked the oysters. Brussels sprouts were good but a pretty small portion. Crab beignets were good. My brother said the pecan crusted chicken was good, my dad loved the crab stuffed founder, and the sea bass was good but seemed lukewarm when I got it. The mac and cheese was super delicious!

Have dined there regularly. Very good food and service. However, the 'renovation' has RUINED the experience. Have tried it twice since the change. Will not eat at a place that looks like a cheaply furnished coffee shop. Hostess' outfit looked like workout clothes. Those expecting the old layout on the website are in for a rude surprise.
