It was great having Chef Bennet come out and introduce us to a dish. U can feel that the tasting menu is coming from Chef Bennett's Root (South Africa). The menu was very earthy and exciting from dish to dish. The Juice pairing that was offered was great as well.

The reason I chose Aera because I heard this restaurant offers an unbeatable view of the CN Tower. The atmosphere is cozy and the service was exceptional—attentive and friendly. Despite the weather, the experience was memorable, and the food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy great views and top-notch service!

I dined solo at this restaurant, and my server, Ray, was an absolute ray of sunshine. She was incredibly sweet and went out of her way to keep me company and check on me, even though she had a full section to manage. The service was impeccable. As for the food, it was decent, though not extraordinary; I’d describe it as "pretty average." That said, I’d still recommend giving it a try at least once. The restaurant itself is charming, and super cute. I don’t think I would return for the food itself but I love the service there and will return for their service. Thank you for making my little visit to Toronto a little more exciting!
