only bar and restaurant located in the hotel lobby...not a lot of options to eat outside the hotel unless walking further out...drink and food menu spread around the bar and tables...a single person working the bar, taking orders and delivering food...seated at the bar to watch tv....ordering a soda at $4.50...at the bar, so drinks coming quickly...complimentary refills...taking a bbq chicken sandwich $19.75...asked if wanting fries...sure!...didn't realize a $1.50 substitution charge to swap out chips for fries until receiving the bill...the fries were good and the bbq chicken sandwich was quite tasty...perfect amount of sweet bbq sauce balanced out with bacon strips...good sandwich and fries...

Stayed at Hilton and eat quite a few meals at Aura. Was never disappointed. The food is delicious and filling. Every time we had dinner there our waiter was Oliver. He was attentive, friendly and very helpful. Great service and food. Definitely recommend this place.

Typical Hilton brand hotel restaurant with a good spin on the Southern California local. It hey had an extensive scotch selection which I found impressive. I only ordered a flatbread app but it was well done. The bartender was lively and attentive. Again I didn't actually go in for the whole dining experience so I can comment further but to say when I go back I will try them for a pull meal.

This review may be biased, but I will try to be fair. We started our morning at 3am, caught a 5:40am flight to orange county, dropped our suitcases st the hotel and grabbed a cab to my daughter's graduation award ceremony. Once that was done, both deb and I looked at each other and agreed lunch was needed soon followed CV by a nap. The Hilton at orange county airport has a bar and grill adjoining the lobby, so it made it very convenient. I was hoping for a burger called" The big frickin burger", but I settled on the steak burger. This had to rank as one of the best Burgers I have ever devoured. We were so famished, sometimes you just will goggle a mediocre meal. This was not the case. The burger was cooked to perfection and was char broiled for more taste. The regular toppings accompanied the burger, tomatoes,lettuce,onion and cheddar cheese. The frosting on the cake was the bun. It was a brioche bun cooked to a golden bun. The bun was pillow soft and did not fall apart. The burger came with fries which were good. We definitely will be back if in area.
