Date Night! Aura


We don't get to go out much but when we do, we try to make it count. One of my husband's co-workers recommended an American/French restaurant in Missouri City so we had to try it out.

My birthday was Dec 29th and it was less than stellar. One of my girls scared me and we ended up in the ER twice that day. Everything turned out fine but this was a chance for a do-over.

Aura turned out to be a fabulous night out. It's one of those tight little restaurant spaces in a nondescript shopping area but those are usually the best places to eat. We started out with a couple of our favorite appetizers, escargot and fois gras. Amazing! For dinner I had the Beef Medallions Diane and my husband had Shrimp Risotto over Chilean Sea Bass. Both were super yummy! And we ended our meal with a Chocolate Fondant cake and Blackberry Cobbler.

The restaurant is located at 3340 FM 1092, #160, Missouri City, TX 77459,
Township Square, 281-403-AURA
. Be sure to call for reservations because even though it wasn't full when we arrived for our early dinner at 6:30pm, it filled up pretty quickly.

We'll definitely go back often to this place and the best part is how close it is to Sienna. The only complaint I have is that they only offer beer and wine and don't have liquor but the wine list is really good.

Try it out, you won't be disappointed!
