Food and service were very good although expensive. Dinner for two was $200, including the tip. Menu seemed a little paired down compared to its sister restaurant. Looking forward to going back in the summer after the restaurant has had time to operate and enjoy the ambiance of the restaurants location on the lake.

We enjoyed the previous business and found the new restaurant as well. We look forward to enjoying the lake view in the summer. I didn't order a pasta, but the next table got one that looked fab. I didn't see a filled pasta but I expect to by then.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! We're so glad you've embraced the new chapter of our restaurant and are looking forward to enjoying the lake view in the summer—it truly is a special spot. We’ll make sure to have some delicious pasta ready for you to try next time, and who knows, maybe even a filled pasta option by then! We can't wait to welcome you back.

First of all the menu on here is not the menu at the restaurant. A bait and switch that the manager couldn’t explain or really care about. In fact. They showed little concern at all about anything. The service was rushed. We had to tell the staff to not clear dishes at least 5 times. The scampi was awful and sour. Extra charges for everything. And again the manager didn’t really care. We won’t go back. Maybe he will care when there is no business.

We sat for 25 minutes until someone came and got our drinks. I had to get up and find somebody. After dinner, our waitress went missing for 20 minutes until they came to clear the table, we barely had any water cause nobody was filling it for us. Very slow service

Made a last minute reservation and glad I did! Sadie was our server. I read from previous reviews reviews how fantastic she was, and she did not disappoint! She made recommendations for drinks and appetizers as well as entrees. Everything was prompt and delicious, as well as the attention to detail from Sadie. We needed another restaurant in our area in this price point. We will be back!

First time at On The Lake… Numerous time at original location Numerous issues… If you are askin’… I’ll tell you… It was a special occasion… My 75th birthday. When we arrived… Our reserved table was not available to us. ??? We were seated at a booth… I asked for a table… We were told there were none ??? After waiting 10 minutes, our server approached us. Edward was great. Food was good but not great. My wife ordered the Grouper special that was Super Salty and was redone. The re-do was very good… But I was done eating before my wife’s was brought to the table. My dessert was comp’d for which I was appreciative. I recognize the place might have been having some opening month “jitters”. If this was my first time at Aurora, I likely would not return. But I know you all can do better. My 75th birthday was not so special. Sorry Bill

Two people ordered steak, MR, one was good the other was more on the rare side. Sent it back to just heat up a little. The steak came back on an extremely hot plate with the oil splashing and the steak crispy on the out side and extremely well done. Uneatable!!! Just awful!!! Brought it to the waiters attention and he said ‘we don’t comp dinners. I could offer you a free desert’. Oh, thanks, a free dessert. I just wanted a steak cooked to order. I never even asked for the meal to be comped. Manager never came over. I NEVER write a bad review but this was very disappointing.
