Aura
About
Aura is the rooftop bar and restaurant on East Brooklyn Village Avenue in Uptown, and it carries more than 12,700 reviews, the deepest record of any bar in the city. The room seats a full menu alongside the drinks, and staff make an effort with solo diners and birthdays alike. A skyline view and a non alcoholic drinks list both draw specific praise.
What to know
- The mushroom bowl and the wagyu burnt ends are the food orders.
- Staff will build a custom non alcoholic drink on request.
- It sits within walking distance of the ballpark and the arena.
- Weekend evenings book up, so arrive early or reserve ahead.
