Out of the eight of us, we ate most of the menu and each dish was as good as the other.

The owner immediately struck up conversation and started us on a tasting spree of his delicious limoncello varieties! Between 'shots' of his homemade limoncello, we sampled some of his fresh jams & preserves as well. So tasty! He was SOO friendly and gave us so many great recommendations, we definitely did not walk out empty-handed! So whilst in town, you must make sure you stop by this adorable little shop that's filled with so many Italian treats! I promise, you won't regret it! :)

We were looking for a nice, romantic place for a date night on our last night in Cinque Terre, and…read moreTorre Aurora turned out to be the perfect setting. Located inside an ancient tower and ruins overlooking the sea, the atmosphere and views are absolutely beautiful--especially during sunset. The service was wonderful from the moment we arrived. Everyone was very friendly, attentive and welcoming, which made the experience even more enjoyable. As for the food, I'd say it was good, but necessarily the best meal we had in Cinque Terre. The appetizers were just average and didn't really impress us, but my anchovy pasta was surprisingly delicious and definitely the highlight of the meal for me. The cocktails were also really nice and paired perfectly with the setting. Overall, I'd come back for the beautiful atmosphere, incredible views, cocktails and a romantic night out. The food was good, but the settings and experience are what really make Torre Aurora special.

I believe he thought we interrupted his conversation with his friends however we waited a good 5 minutes before asking the question thinking maybe he didn't see us standing there. Anyway, it went down hill from there as we took a picture of the entryway to remember the name as we thought we might review this incident later. The waiter then started yelling at us that it was illegal to take pictures... Wow... super good service and a boxing match threat... Ok so we went next door and ordered... The wait staff at the restaurant we settled on said "dont worry about that waiter next door he gets in arguments all the time with people." And so he did... as he approached us again with the woman manager saying stuff about illegal photography... once again way to aggressive and way to unprofessional.. Actually 1 STAR is to high.... I would recommend you avoid this one...

You are in a customer service job and you're acting like you hate your customers... They just had dead-pan faces the whole time, didn't check in on us, and when we did ask for something it just seemed like we were a bother. EX: I simply asked for a box for my pizza and the runner said go inside and ask. I then go inside and ask for a box for my pizza and salad and the rude lady at front acted like she never heard of such an ask. I kid you not she gave me two paper bags. Meanwhile I clearly see pizza boxes in the back!! Hey maybe they have something against tourists... who knows! I do not recommend coming here at all just because of the service my family and I received. Unacceptable and disrespectful! Food was very mediocre too - don't bother wasting your time, social interactions, or your taste buds on this place.
