The “Queen’s Castle” is wrinkled and has dirty patio furniture inside and rundown Christmas decor that only half lights. Aura also needs to list the correct current menu on their website, because at the location they have a very limited bar menu that included a few wines and two mixed drinks and that’s it. The food was the only decent thing. It was supposed to be an elevated experience but the servers are wearing leggings and tshirts. Definitely was not the experience the website describes and pictures.

We had a great time. The place is beautiful, environment lively. We often had to flag down servers for an order or bill, but they were kind and friendly when they were there. Highly recommend.

We're from Asheville and fled after Helene to find a sense of normalcy. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was remarkable. I wish I had caught the hostess's name, but she was incredibly attentive to the notes I left when booking, as I was worried we might be underdressed for the rooftop bar. She not only reassured me but also kindly acknowledged the recent loss in our community, which meant a lot to us. Without being asked, she seated us at the very edge of the rooftop—such a thoughtful gesture. Our server, Sean Thanles, was equally kind and attentive, making the entire experience even more memorable. I can't thank the staff enough for their warmth and professionalism. It’s a visit I’ll remember, and I look forward to returning soon.
