    I've never had a bad experience at Hardware. The food is excellent, I love the fact that so much of their menu is locally sourced. The wait staff is always outstanding.

    The food and service was great. Prices were reasonable but I have to downgrade the rating because the restaurant was cold. I realize that is was cold the night we were there but we requested a table further from the front door and could not get accomadated. Every time the door opened there was a blast of cold air. Had to keep coats in during entire meal.

    Daniel was our waiter - very attentive and high energy. We were celebrating our daughter’s graduation and he treated her extra special. The food was great especially the Adobo Pork Fried Rice and the walnut Shrimp. Love the ambiance and decor. We will Definitely go back. Nice to have a delicious and unique option in downtown Aurora!

    Our first time to Two Brothers and we loved it! We had several craft beers - outstanding! Food was also outstanding - Chicken Piccata, Prime Rib, and Walleye. Only the burger was disappointing - somewhat dry and the bun, not so good. Service was fantastic. Food came fairly fast even though it was packed on a Saturday night. Overall, highly recommend!!
