I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the restaurant L’Aurora in Eaux-Vives neighborhood, Geneva, Switzerland.
Tucked away in a small alley, this charming restaurant has two separate entrances — one for the wine bar side and another for the dining area. The restaurant also features a few outdoor tables right in the alley, which can be perfect on those early warm spring days or later in summer when you’re looking for a quiet terrace with character.
The service was very friendly and welcoming. We were offered a small amuse-bouche of focaccia with a mozzarella cream — a nice touch, though the focaccia could have used a bit more seasoning.
As a starter, we had the beef carpaccio, which was very well seasoned and made with fresh, well-cut slices of beef. For the main course, we tried the cuttlefish risotto. The portion was generous and the dish was nicely balanced in flavor. The cuttlefish was served fried, which added some texture, though we felt fresh, non-fried cuttlefish might have suited the dish even better.
Overall, a very good experience with a pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff, and flavorful dishes — with just a few small areas for improvement.

To state first, I’ll definitely try this place again.
I think I missed the better dishes available by opting for the steak over a pasta dish. The steak comes rare. A bit under seasoned for me personally, but a decent cut of meat.
My friend spoke very highly of her tuna dish and also wanted to eat there again.
I may need to look at the bill next time, can’t remember if we were charged for tap water but I think we were.

It’s a gem in Geneva! Staffs are so nice and kind! The carbonara was delicious! And the baba au rhum is to die for! Thank you very much for this amazing experience!

Great food but very simple setup. Very attentive service. Didn’t seem cozy, expected more with such a high rating.

I love this Italian restaurant. it has very original Italian dish receipts, different from what you used to in conventional Italian restaurants. The service is incredible. To demonstrate, I wanted a peach juice and they didn’t have, but they went as far as to look into the convenience store nearby if they had the juice. The decoration is very warm and refined. It is a great place for dates but also for family as well as a great lunch option. Highly recommend. Prices as very fair.

Terrible experience !
We were late for our reservation, we apologized and got seated. The waitress was clearly pissed while taking our order. We were 2 people but ordered one main course, a wine and a dessert. She asked “only one for 2 people?”, we said yes, she left without saying anything. 1 minute later someone from the restaurant arrived -also pissed- telling us “this is a restaurant. You cannot only order dessert”. We explained that we had also ordered a main course and drink and he said “which one did you order? show me on the menu”. We showed him and he was about to leave without saying anything (no one says “thank you” in this restaurant apparently). We told him that his behavior was unnecessarily impolite, he said that he didn’t speak English and told us to leave the restaurant!!
In short, it was the rudest behavior I’ve ever experienced in a restaurant! If there is a minimum consumption required, write it, dont kick people out !
Updated: the owner just replied that they kicked us out because they didnt want to give a table for a small consumption. We were not aware. And there is a politer way to say that to your customer instead of “you need to leave now”

My partner has already written a more detailed review, but I think it’s important to highlight when restaurants exhibit micro aggressions. We were asked to leave the restaurant because we protested to the extremely rude and outright aggressive behavior of both the owners. They were angry because they assumed we did not order anything but dessert (we had ordered a main and drinks). Even if we hadn’t, there cannot be any excuse for speaking at customers (or just people!) aggressively and rudely. I do not expect the owners to agree with what I have said, but this was my experience. I hope at least some of you see this and decide to spend your money elsewhere. No amount of good food should excuse terrible service and manners.
