Tasty and healthy food. Excellent wait staff. 2 top seating is very tight. We asked to sit a seat over from the only table in the restaurant and were told no. The table next to us left because the host refused to give spacing in between tables when many tables were available (more than half the restaurant was open). I completely understand reservations but better planning would allow for alternate seating upon opening.

This beautiful restaurant has quickly become a favorite. My partner and I have been twice and both times have provided us with exceptional service, libations, and a culinary experience that can only be described as art. Not only has the food been phenomenally delicious, the portions have been able to satisfy, which is a rarity in a fine dining atmosphere. Food arrives quickly and disappears as fast. The love and attention to detail and staff diligence to ensuring a beautiful experience is remarkable and something that will not be soon forgotten. 10/10, would recommend. Very grateful for this gem to be just around the corner.

This restaurant deserves 6 stars. Every time I have dined at Aurelia with my partner it has set the bar higher for all the other restaurants I have reviewed.The atmosphere is cozy and accommodating, with professional, smart, familial and warm service, and the food arrives surprisingly quickly.But its the food that sets it galaxies apart from any other restaurant i have ever dined in. The quality of the ingredients and their source, the artistry of their composition, and the palpable love that is put into every dish is unmatched.Bravo

Menu is small, but diverse. Nearly everything (except the seafood) is locally sourced and tastes great! Ambiance is casual and modern. Staff is super friendly. Highly recommend giving it a try

Dinner at Aurelia on Saturday was fun and delicious as always. I post today, at lunch, after eating my dinner partners left over Mahi-Mahi. Saturday, my scallops on a bed of rice with duck was delicious!The Mahi-Mahi was a step above delicious. Even, reheated at work, in the microwave, the fish is moist and flakey, the couscous over spinach served alongside was in the sauce with the fish. The buttery, lemony taste was superb! Thank you James Balchak, for a good time and a great meal.

Outstanding food, incredible service! This place is truly special. Chef James and the rest of the staff are amazing and made me feel at home. I truly have not tried one item that wasn’t excellent. The fresh, original cocktails and extensive wine list is the cherry on top of the incredible cuisine! The sangria is to die for, and uses a ton of fresh fruit as the sweetness so it’s not too sugary. I also love the Oolong Sweet Tea cocktail that has fresh brewed tea, homemade lemonade, and Tito’s. Last night I had the Lake Erie Walleye cakes and the salmon salad with strawberries, both incredible. The freshness of the ingredients really shines through; I don’t think I have ever had sweeter strawberries in my life! The berries on the salad were balanced so nicely with the thick, perfectly seared salmon and creamy, delicious goat cheese atop a bed of tender, flavorful local lettuce- Yum!! And the walleye cakes were crisp on the outside, and super flavorful and well seasoned. I loved the house made remoulade on top! I also tried my friend’s chicken fricasse with Ohio raised chicken and local mushroom gravy; it was so incredibly juicy and the sauce was outrageous!!! So well seasoned! The ever changing menu makes me want to try everything before it goes away, and makes me so excited to come back the next week for the freshest ingredients Chef James has found at the local farms! So happy to have a locally sourced restaurant in Chagrin! Also excited to finally have a Sunday brunch spot in downtown Chagrin Falls😊 definitely feels upscale with the atmosphere and the food, while also being reasonably priced and casual

Disappointed! The tables were so close together it was uncomfortable. The girl at the next table took a hair off her sweater and attempting to drop on the floor it ended up on our table. My fish had bones in it and the skin was on. Lazy move on the chef. One waitress in the whole place. She did an amazing job!!

Popped in for brunch. Ordered the Brisket Hash. Had a nice combination of egg ,potatoes, and meat. So savory. Coffee is great, you can tell they care about the coffee they serve.. I found a new brunch spot.Service is attentive and friendly.

Loved the food and the staff. We were seated quickly, and the simple menu resulted in a wonderful meal. I had the salmon salad (pictured) and my wife the chicken. Im a salmon aficionado and declare this the best salmon around. Outstanding.

AMAZING!! If I could give 100 stars I would in an instant! Amazing cocktails, appetizers, and meals. We were very impressed. Attentive staff and perfect service. The owner, James came over and we spoke with him for a little while. What a wonderful person and passion for what he loves. My favorite restaurant, hands down. Will be back very very soon.
