They have brunch on Sundays and nightly entertainment from live preformances to dj's. It is a very luxurious looking venue. The empanadas are pretty tasty. The drinks are delicious; they make an amazing Old Cuban cocktail. The service was good, and the bartenders are pretty knowledgeable. I highly recommend checking out this venue.

A new fish in the pond brings a nice surprise in The Sack! Aura will definitely astound you with unexpected five star fare. The food is scrumptious and very well presented. The loft like space with turn of the century tin ceilings, well appointed bar, dark decor and moldings and well chosen art, even a Juliet balcony for a private party set the mood under candlelight at this dinner only eatery. The cherry on top is the nightly entertainment, both live acts and/or dj swing tunes for your enjoyment. Cocktails are hit or miss on strength. Service is good yet felt a bit strained at times for food sequencing and service synchronization.
All in all, a welcomed addition to this up and coming area of Hackensack.

The location is great with the potential to be a business networking establishment. Too many young girls at the bar in skimpy clothes. The music was atrocious; loud with profane language. The waitstaff was very polite, however less than professional. A nice menu with mouthwatering selections; except the salad with shrimp - 4 small shrimp in a big plate of lettuce. Lastly, the 18% gratuity included in our bill. It was less than 6 of us; of course we did not tip any extra. We will not be returning.

This is an amazing bar I can’t believe I did not try to go here sooner! The cocktails are delicious, the bartenders are knowledgeable and friendly, the ambiance is edgy and reminds me of a higher end bar in Manhattan, and the menu has great food, I will definitely be returning!

I waited until I tried this spot a couple of times before decided to leave a review.
Every time I've been to this spot I've had a horrible experience.
But I can say the food and drinks are tasty and seems like they're made with care but the drinks are absolutely overpriced. For instance I ordered a Cadillac margarita and the bartender gave it to me with house tequila in it what's the point of asking for a Cadillac if you going to give me a Toyota
This is completely my fault because after the first time I ordered the lamb chops and got disappointed why oh why would I order them again my only answer is I like the way they taste but there is no good reason these itty bitty lamb chops should cost $32

I honestly expected more from their menu. A nice steak option could elevate the menu. I came here on Latin Fridays and the entertainment and live singer was phenomenal! The place wasn't packed around 7pm but they are still building their presence and I had no issue parking in the back.
For a slow night the service was extremely slow and I sat at the bar and didn't even get dessert because I wasn't addressed until 35 mins after asking for the menu. Again, the place wasn't busy but the staff was preoccupied amongst each other.
The place has potential.

Had one of the worst experiences in recent times. Went with a couple of friends yesterday, and one of them had had a great experience here before, so we thought it would be good to try. Unfortunately, we had a completely opposite reaction. The ambience was good, and the Music they played was popping, if a little loud. And the positives end here.
The table we were seated at was very wobbly, and they were not able to fix it. Even though there was an empty table (same seating) right next to us, they refused to switch us over. Only after requesting multiple times did they eventually agree to move us.
Service was extremely slow. 30+ mins for Drinks and 40+ mins for Food. Most of the items on their Website Menu were not available (we were given a different Menu with way smaller selection). Drink options especially sucked for us since most Cocktails were Smoky flavored.
All the items (Salmon, Lobster & Shrimp, Beef) were overcooked. I could barely cut into my lobster and ended up sending it back, but they still charged me for that. When we talked with the Manager regarding this, he wasn't the least bit apologetic and instead tried convincing me to order something else, and took the item off my Check only after a long discussion.
Reviews for this place seem to be extremely mixed, so I guess it really depends on your luck or what's happening there the day you visit 🤷🏻♀️

The decor is nice and relaxing. Our group went for brunch. The food took a long time to come out. The first meal came out and it took 9 minutes for everyone else's food to come out. We didn't ask for our meals separately and we ordered at the same time. The veggies were tasty and cooked well. The cornbread waffle is thick and tastes good but half of it was burned. I ordered the lemonade instead of a drink and I liked it. The dehydrated lime added color to it.

I went here for a bday party on 11/18 and it was nice, there just wasn’t a dance floor tho and the food wasn’t that good, it was so oily. It could be what I ordered. Idk but The music was really good and the staff was nice! I’ll try to go again and order something else next time. 4/10

Cute place. Just opened so it was kinda dead inside. Not surprisingly food took forever (kitchens, like engines, are more efficient at a moderate cruising speed -too slow or too fast, and things get messed up). Burger was good but I wish the patty was wider to cover the bun and shorter so it would fit in my mouth. Calamari was crunchy with a sweet/salty chili sauce. Martini was perfect. Even better when they comped my drinks for the kitchen delay. I didn’t mind too much but Im going to say no to a free Martini?
