For
date
night
we
had
planned
on
going
to
the
Distillery
district
Christmas
Market
and
wanted
a
cocktail
bar
to
enjoy
without
having
to
walk
very
far,
as
most
specialty
cocktail
bars
in
Toronto
seem
to
be
on
King
Street.
Aura
was
very
nearby
and
went
way
above
my
expectations.
The
food
menu
is
small
and
simple
with
a
focus
on
quality
that
would
make
the
difference
for
amount
of
available
options.
The
red
pepper
hummus
was
house
made,
chunky
and
more
flavor
than
I'd
ever
had
in
a
spread
before.
We
shared
the
truffle
fries
and
they
hit
the
spot,
especially
after
all
the
walking
that
we
did
today.
The
cocktails
that
we
came
here
for
went
way
above
and
beyond
what
I
had
ever
imagined.
Almost
everything
used
in
their
cocktails
are
house
made,
and
change
with
the
available
resources.
A
tequila
mezcal
drink
I
enjoyed
used
spices
only
produced
from
turkey
and
the
infusion
with
the
tequila
was
unlike
anything
I
have
experienced
before.
It
was
my
first
time
experiencing
Aura
and
it
definitely
won't
be
the
last.
As
great
as
the
experience
was
the
bartender
and
partner
of
the
restaurant
is
what
made
the
experience
next
level.
He
explained
the
stories
behind
the
drinks
and
his
process
of
infusion
for
everything
that
made
it
far
more
personable
than
most
dining
experiences
I
have
had.
Thank
you
so
much
for
the
experience!
Anyone
would
be
lucky
to
get
a
chance
to
try
it
themselves.
