I’ve been waiting for a restaurant like this to open closer to home! It is exactly what the area needed. Let’s start with the ambiance, from outside by the water to inside with the TV’s and overall liveliness of the atmosphere. The food was amazing.. I’m talking 10/10 highly recommend! I was kind of taken aback because there was no way the vibe and the food would match, right? WRONG! To my surprise everything I tried was good, and believe me.. I tried to taste as much as I could lol. They even have desert. The peach cobbler egg rolls.. Immediately Yes! I also had a chance to meet the owners, they were really down to earth and made sure they checked on us to make sure we were good. Can’t wait to go back with my girls or maybe even a date night 😌

I had the chance to attend the grand opening of Vibez on the River in Aurora, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was everything — great music, beautiful views of the river, and a vibe that instantly makes you feel relaxed and welcome. The energy in the room was positive and lively, and you could tell everyone was excited to be there. The food was just as impressive. Everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and prepared really well. You can tell a lot of care went into both the menu and presentation. It’s the kind of place where you come for the food but stay for the vibe. Overall, Vibez on the River is a great new addition to Aurora. If you’re looking for a spot with good food, great music, and a fun atmosphere, this is definitely a place you’ll want t

I attended the Soft opening of Vibez on the River and boy was I impressed!! The atmosphere and the food was top-tier! The staff were so friendly and attentive.I had quite a few dishes and they were all delicious! I started with the wings and they were very flavorful and cooked to perfection! I then went for an entrée which was the lamb chops, my sides were cabbage & Mac! Everything came out hot and fresh! My taste buds were tap dancing!! I finished with salmon bites as I wanted to try quite a few dishes. Their recipes are very well executed. Oh and I forgot about my yummy cocktails! You have to try the Mo'Tini 🍸.Overall I would give this establishment 10/10! I thoroughly enjoyed EVERYTHING ! Don't walk Runnn 🏃🏽‍♀️💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨 to Vibez in the River ! You won't be disappointed!

THIS PLACE WAS A VIBE. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS ON POINT FROM THE MOMENT I WALKED IN THE DOOR. THE OWNERS CAME TO OUR TABLE SEVERAL TIMES AND CHECKED ON US. OUR WAITRESS WAS AWESOME. ACTUALLY WE HAD TWO. SERVERS WHO WERE NOT EVEN TAKING CARE OF US STOPPED BY OUR TABLE TO MAKE SURE WE WERE GOOD. THE CATFISH WAS THE STAR OF THE SHOW. IT HAD SO MUCH FLAVOR. I FELT VERY COMFORTABLE AND AT HOME HERE. THE DON JULIO PRICES WERE FANTASTIC AND I HAD SEVERAL. I AM SO GLAD I CHECKED THIS SPOT OUT. I WILL BE BACK. THANKS VIBEZ FOR BRINGING THIS GEM TO AURORA. THE MUSIC 🎶 WAS AT THE RIGHT VOLUME WHERE YOU COULD ENJOY IT BUT STILL BE ABLE TO CONVERSATE. 10/10

Vibez is GREAT! We visited for the first time. Happy smiles and greeting from all the staff. Service was spectacular (Tyanah). I had the catfish with cabbage/turkey side. DELICIOUS! My wife and and had the margarita flights. That have lots more flavors. We each had 4 different flavors. Very tasty, and pack a lil’ PUNCH. For dessert we had the peach cobbler egg rolls and the caramel cake. It was as EXCELLENT! We are definitely adding this to our list of faves. You should definitely check them out.
