The food was incredible. Tried the shrimp ceviche and the sushi. The skirt steak was very tender and well cooked. The marinade was tasty. The drinks were excellent. I had the purple rain and it was so good. Loved the live Latin band playing all the hits. Servers are nice. Overall would definitely recommend and will be returning.

Wow wow, I celebrated my husband's birthday last night and it really was one of the best places to have dinner or celebrate, from the delicious cocktails to the delicious food, I have no words. The waiter who served us was truly excellent. There is a plus that really caught my attention: they put my husband's name on the menu. I will try to leave a photo so you can see it. The music and the atmosphere are incredible. No, no, you don't have to go. I discovered this place by pure coincidence! Come on, you have to visit. The prices were 10/10.

Came here for a friends birthday dinner, and was pleasantly surprised. We were the last reservations on a Friday night (9:30) because an event later that evening. The food and drinks we had came in enough time and was tasty. We had the hangover roll, fried calamari, the skirt steak, fries, chimichurri rice ( I highly recommend) pork chops, braised oxtail, and vaca frita and mei fun noodles. (It actually wasn’t mei fun, but the broad noodles, which was okay but I wish they told me. The live music was great, and the birthday serenade that my friend got was right up her alley and the flan that she received towards the end dig the night complete with flares. The drinks were great. We had the purple rain, lychee martinis, and the lagunitas.

I visited this restaurant on a Friday night, finding parking was relatively easy or maybe it was my lucky night. Upon arrival we were welcomed by the hostess who brought us to our table right away, we had a very nice view facing the stage where a Cuban salsa band was playing, honestly the highlight of the evening. Service was good but it took a while for someone to approach our table for drinks, once our server came we were ready to order our whole meal. Apps included the curried calamari, crab guacamole and truffle fries all pretty good in flavor and portion size. For entrees we ordered the salmon, sea bass and steak, the fish was pretty good in flavor except for the seabass not being deboned it had some many tiny bones that I just gave up on it and could not finish my dish. The steak although it was well seasoned it had no sauce and it felted a bit dry. Cocktails were outstanding probably the best part of our meal. Ambiance was beautiful, it had a modern industrial vibe, great music, comfortable space. Overall worth the visit.

The place is big and excellent for the atmosphere, the stage for the singers is great and the space is perfect for Salsa dancing. The staff was nice but they need to get their ducks in a row, attention to detail and availability to the tables should be pushed. Overall the experience was positive but they can make improvements still. Grilled octopus is highly recommended Branzino was delish Skirt steak was good but potatoes a little hard and dry Porn star drink was very good

Came for drag brunch on Saturday and it was great! They have a brunch special for $50 that includes a starter, a main, and 90min of unlimited mimosas. There was a sign on the bathroom that said they have a similar one for $40 but 60min of mimosas, our server didn’t mention that one so I’m not sure it’s valid. Only deducting a star because they have only 1 vegetarian option (for brunch) and it was a very limited food menu in general. Cocktails were amazing, service was great and the drag show was lovely. Would definitely come here again!

Aura cocina is an interesting Cuban / Asian fusion concept. The restaurant is nestled away and it took a bit of a hunt. You have to pass by a bakery before getting to the door Nice and open and high ceilings, the restaurant has a great atmosphere. Even with many people, you can hear yourselves talk. Beautiful presentation of all dishes. The food is good, however, I found myself adding salsa to the dishes to increase the flavor. For the price, I was underwhelmed. We had the skirt steak, which was cooked perfectly, and Cuban fried rice, both delicious but lacked flavor The music was good but started 1/2 hour late. I had to leave my seat to ask for water but after that prompt, they came frequently. The server was nice and otherwise did his job well.

I really wanted to give this spot a 5 star review but the food is just mediocre, starters are good but all the main courses we ordered was not great at all. Do not get the Peking Chicken is just a lightly baked chicken no flavor at all. The band was awesome, the staff was amazing and the atmosphere is really nice. If you’re looking to enjoy a good meal this is not the spot.

Was our second time visiting, great ambiance, music, service... drinks are really good... Appetizers were tasty, but the main entrees left us somewhat disappointed... not awful, but different.

So my friends and I went for brunch. The atmosphere is lovely. They had live dj that definitely entertained the crowd.But the food had a few issues. My pregnant friend found hair in food and though they took it off the menu she was left hungry. I ordered well done fried eggs and came out runny still. The food looked better than it tasted.

The 2 stars I’m giving is for the live band. Lack luster of an experience due to the fact my party of 9 was treated with sub par service. Everybody’s food came out 10-15 minutes apart. The waitress noted everyone’s order individually, then repeated the orders to each person. Somehow someway the person who was last to order never received his food. We were so hungry and spent 5 hours at a networking event for him to get played in his face. On top of everything it was his birthday too. We asked twice for the food and the second time was when the restaurant was already packing up the tables + chairs. On top of that they brought out dumplings which we never ordered. He had literally shown the waitress the photo + verbally asked for the beef braised noodles. In the end no apology or sincerity was given from anyone. The waitress stated they would remove the dumplings from our bill, as she should because we never ordered it, and then told us they would remove the braised beef noodles that never came, again as she should. This place is smoke and mirrors, aesthetically pleasing but horrible service. Maybe you need to be cool with the owner or employees to get decent service. Don’t recommend and I wish you don’t have the same experience

I should have known from booking the reservation how this night was going to go. The staff are super rude. This business won't last if they don't change things up. That night we went we spent over $1000 because we reserved bottle service. Waited til 530a for a band that never showed. Meanwhile you have underage kids in hoodies drinking and being rude to other patrons. You have "staff" getting drunk and not working. It honestly felt like a teen bash. Now im a mom, and if I ran a nightclub , I would want my teen kids with me where I can watch them instead of them somewhere else. HOWEVER, you should set the expectations high to show them how to grow this business by having them dressing and acting appropriately. Or AT LEAST moving the patrons that just spent over $1000 to an area where they can enjoy the DJs music. If my party would have shown up in sneakers and hoodies with a bag of Popeyes, we wouldn't have been let in. What saved the night was the music was good. But heads up-- Most of us have really stressful lives- working, running households, taking care of family. When we go out , especially when we are spending hard earned money, kindness and good service is what we need. And damn , at the end of the day, my $1000 just helped you pay your rent. If you cant provide that experience to your customers, than this is not the business you should run. Good luck!

Live music is cool but you still need to be able to hear yourself think and speak. Like Jesus y’all. Not trying to lose my voice over a meal. We had to scream to hear each other. The staff was also using LED spotlights to capture Instagram content next to us at prime dinner hour, consistently shining it at us…what a lovely ambiance. Additionally, they use iPads as menus. We hadn’t even ordered yet and the hostess took them…not to give to another table, just to put them back at the hostess stand. This + the ridiculously loud music makes this place literally the worst choice to try to enjoy a social dinner. Whoever is rating this well must be high. The food is not good. 3/4 people hated their meals and no one comes to check on you. 0/0 service. This is a dance hall that happens to serve food (mediocre food) and needs to be marketed as such.
