Been here on one occasion. Food was good, flavorful, and portion size was average. Server forgot to enter one of our side orders. By the time it came out we were done with entrees. However, this item was comped by the restaurant. The accountability goes a long way and was appreciated. Will be back.

I travel for work weekly and found this place. Wow! Amazing food , service , and ambiance. Didn’t expect this is Des Moines! Josh was my server and he was very friendly and wonderful. I appreciate that! He’s a great employee and should be recognized. I will return if my travels ever bring me back!

This was our first time at Aura and we loved it! We were a party of eight for a family birthday celebration. The food was amazing -- some of the best salmon I've had. Everyone raved about their food. My gin & tonic was perfect -- a generous pour. The service was mostly good, although a little spotty. The atmosphere is beautiful. Very upscale. My only quibble was it felt we were right under the AC and most of us were cold. I've already made reservations for another birthday celebration in July.

This was my first time visiting Aura, I was told great things & they were right! The service from Haley was outstanding, food delicious and the manager stopped at our table & chatted for a bit. I will definitely be back. I ordered the pork chop w brussel sprouts & potatoes, yummy
