"Aura Indian restaurant was a truly enjoyable experience. The food was good, with bold and vibrant flavors. The starters were outstanding, possibly one of the best I've ever had. The service was friendly, with good recommendations, but the order handling didn't quite meet expectations. It felt a bit rushed, likely due to the high volume of tables, even though the staff seemed sufficient in number. The atmosphere was cool and chic—stylish without being pretentious. My main critique is refinement. While the flavors were excellent, some dishes had the same taste, and the biryanis were dry and not as expected. At this level, seasoning should be flawless. It didn't feel like a true gastronomic experience, but rather a very high-quality, upscale restaurant. Would I rate it five stars? Personally, yes—five stars feels more appropriate. That said, it's immensely popular, and getting a table is easy, with a great overall experience."

I’ve had my fair share of incredible Indian food in my home state of New Jersey... but Aura Indian Food Paradise in Ashburn, VA might just be one of the best dining experiences I’ve had outside my home state. From the rich flavors to the beautifully presented dishes, everything was spot-on — elevated, authentic, and full of warmth. You can tell there’s heart in this kitchen, and it shows in every bite. A huge thank you to Ashish, our waiter, whose kindness and attentiveness made the experience even more memorable. Truly one of the sweetest people I’ve met — and a perfect reflection of the hospitality that makes Aura so special. If you’re anywhere near Ashburn, this place is an absolute must. Already looking forward to my next visit.

We were there for dinner on my birthday. We got there around 6 pm and we're seated quickly. Lovely ambiance, great decor! We started out with beer for me and Mango lassi for my wife. The Onion Pakoras were awesome , like something my mom.makes at home! We ordered Jackfruit Biryani, Chenna Masala, and Garlin Naan. Medium Spicy made it all very subtle and flavorful. Table robots brought the dishes from the kitchen. Enjoyed a leisurely dinner. Great food, lovely decor and ambiance and excellent service! Will be back again definitely!

We had the pleasure of dining at Aura on Mother's day. This is a fairly new restaurant with great vibes, decor, food and drinks. We had the Gobi 65 (which was approved by my picky eater) for appetizer, Moscow mule and spicy margarita for drinks and goat briyanis and ghee roast for main course. We absolutely loved them all. We were impressed by robo servers as well :). Will definitely come back again.

Really enjoyed our visit to Aura Indian Restaurant in Chantilly! The food was flavorful and authentic, especially the vegetarian options, which were some of the best we've had in a while. Lot of options in menu and our group enjoyed the food. The ambiance was classy, cozy and well thought out, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Big thanks to the owners for their warm hospitality and attention to detail. You’ve created a lovely dining experience—we’ll definitely be back!

This was a perfect lunch. Menu prices were between 8 (Apps) - 20 (Mains). The restaurant was beautiful and impeccably clean. The food was delicious, we had tikka masala, butter chicken, chicken biryani, samosas, and butter naan. I can’t wait to try other things from the menus. We saw some things that other tables ordered and were a little jealous lol. Overall this is a really nice place for a date or a fancy family dinner. I’ll also add that it looks like it has a private event room in the back so maybe if someone is looking for that they do seem to have it.
