Restaurante Aura is a Bilbao restaurant at Dorre Kalea 7 in Ibaiondo, with the address also identified as Calle de la Torre 7 in Casco Viejo. Its setting places it within Bilbao’s old-town area in Bizkaia, providing an urban context for a meal while exploring the city.

The multilingual presentation is practical for international visitors and for groups with different language preferences. The wine list adds a drinks element to the restaurant’s food-focused format, while the overall style remains centred on the combination of cultures in the cooking and the atmosphere of the dining room.
