Average customer review Score for El Aura
The restaurant is located slightly outside downtown Córdoba. It is about 15 minutes from the world-famous Mezquita, and the cities Real Alcazar. If you are looking to explore a bit more of the city, or just find yourself in the area, EL Aura is an excellent dining option.
The restaurant serves a modern take on classic Andalusian dishes. If you are looking for a quaint, traditional Andalusian tavern, this is not the place for you. However, if you are looking for something a bit more adventurous and different then you are in luck. You will find all the classic Andalusian dishes you might expect, with a twist.
We would suggest El Aura for more of a special occasion or if you are looking for a more modern dining experience in Córdoba.

Among them, salmorejo is probably the best know case. A tomato soup made with olive oil, bread and ham and boiled egg toppings. Simply delicious. Flamenquinos are also associated to Cordoba. These are battered pieces of ham (sometimes also pork) with cheese inside. The Rabo de toro or bull tail is normally served as a stew. Regañas is the local shape bread takes here: dry, crispy and perfect with tapas. Last but not least we should mention the local wines of the Montilla Moriles DOC
There is no precise rule as to how much to tip in Spain. Spaniards only tip if they consider the service to be good. A 5% is normally considered a good tip. Having said this, some local waiters know tourists tip more than local Spaniards do and may expect more from foreigners.
