Customer Reviews

We really enjoyed our dining experience at Aura. It's a fantastic waterfront option with a view of the harbour. What's unique about this restaurant is they specialize in sharing plates. I felt this way really brought my table together and creatied an even more bonding family outing. Everyone getting to try and compare their favorites was fun! Our server was very experienced and professional. I recommend everything we tried, but don't miss the house made bread and the pork belly was mouth watering. I will return for sure!
Absolutely amazing experience earlier this year. Easily within my Top 10 all time dining experiences. The service was wonderful and attentive without being overbearing, with detailed information on all of our dishes of choice. Everything was served as it was prepared, which allowed us to enjoy it at the perfect temperature and over a series of courses. Each dish was cooked to perfection. The drinks were delicious and well crafted, and the signature lavender cocktail was a bit bitter, which contrasted nicely with the meal.
Skipped dinner, but wanted to share thoughts on happy hour. Opted for a change this New Year's and stayed at the Inn at Laurel instead of our usual Empress or Grand Pacific in Victoria. Explored the hotel bar—a chic, compact space with a gorgeous view of water and surroundings. The bartender's friendly service and skillful drink choices enhanced the experience. Overall, a charming spot to enjoy drinks and soak in the scenic views.
