In early May, the Williamsburg-based Italian restaurant Aurora made the leap to SoHo, where the menu and setting echo the original spot with a rustic look and a similar menu of artisanal fare, such as braised pork belly with white bean puree. Aurora Soho has simple decorative accents, such as exposed-brick walls and wooden tables. The 60-seat restaurant also has an extensive Italian wine list.
