  • Good for special occasions

Aura is a neighborhood restaurant that celebrates how food, drink, people, and atmosphere come together
Aura is inspired by the banks of the Mediterranean, the spirit of family, the crisp coolness of a just caught oyster, the vibrancy of farm fresh vegetables, and the spirit of, “il dolce far niente.”

Here at Aura, we pride ourselves on hospitality, with a focus on memorable moments, whether you’re coming in for a small bite and a glass of wine at the bar, an intimate dinner with friends, or a large celebration.

Our menus are inspired by our culture, our seasonal ingredients, and our travels… and we welcome you to share your aura with us. We hope to see you soon.

    Excellent food - different and delicious! Loved being able to watch the fire. The noise level was a little high to hear each other.

    The ambiance and service were top notch, and it’s nice to have an urban vibe here in my neighborhood. My only complaint is that the tables are a bit close together which made it very loud. This was prime time at 7pm on a Saturday night, so perhaps I’ll try it during the week. The scallops and Branzino (fish) were both delicious, and they make a good cocktail. I’ll definitely be going back.

    I’ve dined here when it was called “Pearl” and I am glad that Aura has kept up that same level of dining experience. The food drinks and service was excellent. Highly recommend.

    Aura is a wonderful addition to the Long beach Barrier Island. The food is quite good , the service is attentive and friendly. On the night I was there, Wednesday 11/27/24 the music at the bar was great but to loud for dining and talking comfortably. BUT !!! I will definitely be back 3rd time last night and really enjoy the restautrant
