National Burger Day is today! Chef is bringing back the famed Aurora Burger, perfectly in place for a day like today.

We grind a half pound of prime beef and shape it into a perfect patty right here in the kitchen, then top it with melted Gruyère and add our house onion jam, a perfect amount of pickles, and roasted garlic aioli all on a toasted bun. Served classically with fries. Order an affogato if you're a milkshake, burger and fries person, you won't regret it. 🇮🇹

Reserve on OpenTable, call ahead or walk-in and we'll be happy to accommodate.
