Service was exception, but to point of distracting the moment for the quest. Had staff wanting to remove items before ready on several occasions. Food moved out quickly, but had not yet received wine for main dinner.’ Had white wine glasses for red wine, ordered a bottle of Pinot Noir. No freshly graded parm cheese for pasta. No ice in water. Decided on night special for lolli pop lamb. Flavor was good but much fat and only 3 portion, for 75$. Upon our departure, waiting for valet, guests in area smoking marijuana, very disturbing.

We’ve dined at the original Aurora, and our experience at Aurora on the Lakes was even better! The pastas are incredible and the service was fantastic (our server, Leah, was great!). For a restaurant that just opened, they are running things like they’ve been doing this forever. Can’t wait to go back!

After a quick turnover to new ownership, everything was decent. The food taste and presentation was good but one of our dishes was served cold, reheated, and returned luke warm. Our server was very kind and helpful but needs some training in wine service (how to open and pour properly). Honestly, my biggest issue was that the lights were very bright all evening which greatly detracted from the ambiance. I'm not writing this restaurant off yet though. The new ownership group has a great reputation and I'm sure they need some time to smooth the operation.

Celebrated the new year with dinner at Aurora on the Lake. We hadn’t been to the old MOT in many years but thought we’d try the new menu/owners. It did not disappoint! Service was very good. And the food was fantastic! Meatball and arancini appetizers, filets, whitefish, and truffle fries were all delicious! I’d highly recommend and we’ll return!

Took awhile to get our food. When we did parts were cold. Hubby got the pan seared whitefish and I got the tenderloin and mushroom pasta. Whitefish was ok, just a little greasy. Pasta was good but the tenderloin was overcooked

The food was excellent and the service was impeccable. It was noisy on New Year’s Eve, but there was a crowd. We’ll return soon and hope it’s less noisy.

Great experience, Aurora has an updated / glamor vibe; food was absolutely fantastic, service was amazing. Our visit was during the soft launch, so that makes it even better knowing the already great service will like improve (is that possible?).
