Aera Toronto Reviews
Turn down the music!
Food was amazing! Service excellent! View top notch. The only reason I didn't give 5/5 is the noise. The music was way too loud...couldn't hear the person next to me. This was NOT a good dinner environment.
How Not to Treat Customers
We paid the table booking fee for a view at Aera on Oct 2 for my husband’s 60th birthday. A friend from Norway was joining us. The reservation was made almost 6 weeks in advance. Two days before, we received a reminder about our upcoming reservatio
Weekend Dinner With Friends
This restaurant is 38 floors into the clouds with an amazing view of the CN Tower. Known for sushi and steak. A cool feature to try was its anime themed cocktails! My friends and I made sure to try those as well as items from there Summerlicious thre

Honestly hand down some of the best experience and food we’ve had at any high end restaurant. Portions were generous and all around delicious. We got the beef tenderloin and the stuffed chicken paired with the buttery mashed potatoes and brussel sp

The view and decor was nice, but I didn't enjoy the 7oz bacon steak. I did ask the waiter if I needed to add a side but was told it's alright without one as there's the onion rings/crisp. Maybe it would be better with sides. 1/4 of the
Great skyline views
Aera is located on the 38th floor of The Well where you can enjoy 360 degree panoramic views of the city along with your dinner or round of drinks. Opening hours are 4pm to 10pm (Sun to Thurs) and 4pm to 1am (Fri & Sat). Met friends here recently
Came here for after dinner drinks. Bartender was great with giving recommendations. Also ordered dessert here. I think this place offers the best views of the CN Tower. Enjoyed the DJ playing music and the vibes and aesthetic were nice.
Not All Bottles are the Same
This is a lovely restaurant but I have a small quibble: the sommelier was pleasant and approachable but when we ordered a second bottle of the same wine she just opened it and poured it into the glasses that had the remains of the first bottle. No

THE VIEWS were the BEST part of my experience at Aera! It was so breathtaking. I sat at the chef's table with unobstructed views of the CN Tower. The overall ambiance was an upscale, classy and chic vibe. The service was impeccable from the host
Wowowow!! As the sister restaurant of the renowned Canoe -
Wowowow!! As the sister restaurant of the renowned Canoe - the view at Aera definitely is similar. The inside looks more modern & sultry though, more suitable for a hot date or meal before the clubs. We tried: -Cocktails City Z, Amelia, Strawha
Management gave us a terrible Birthday Experience
I made reservations for my Wife's birthday over a week prior to May 11 2025 - I arranged a South Exposure window seat which they assured me they had booked. They told me if I had any special requests i.e. specific seating to rebook the reserva
What a view
It's all about the view. Simply amazing. The service is good. The steaks while overpriced, were cooked well and tasted good. The mashed potatoes were simply ok. A place like this should up its game with this. Maybe a Truffle mashed. My m

Food was decent and a bit overpriced for the quality and portion, but the views and ambiance make up for it.

I had a really poor experience at this overhyped restaurant / bar. We arrived there for late night drinks and despite lot of tables being available, the hostess made us sit at the bar. Those tables continued to be empty and were later given to other

We made a reservation for a table with a CN Tower view, and it was absolutely perfect--you could see the tower clearly from the restaurant. On the other side, there was also a beautiful lake view, making the overall atmosphere and scenery truly amazi
Such a vibe here! Drinks are boozy and views are great.
Service was decent. We came for happy hour. Happy hour cocktails are $15 so still pricey but worth it for the views. Great spot for date night or a night out with friends. Washrooms were pretty cleans. Limited parking and wheelchair accessible

The hostess was not that friendly, she asked if I had a reservation, found it, and told me to wait to be taken to the table. I honestly wish they would just let me walk over to my party, because this took a few minutes. The view is absolutely stunnin
Birthday dinner???
This was my birthday dinner. Service was slow. Nobody came to take our drink order for 15 minutes. Once we ordered our appetizers they came right away. The corn bread was delicious, the burrata salad was average. We ordered our mains. My husband got

Food and service was good, except for one disappointing element. I arranged ahead of time to have a special dessert for my wife because it was her birthday. After dinner, I was expecting to see the special dessert arrive at the table and it never did
A real “got to go to” place
Visited Aera on our first trip to Toronto and it definitely has the Wow Factor in terms of both food and views. Our server was excelllent and the meal was amazing. I’ll be back for the burger next time 😍
had a really great time here and the food was excellent.
if you have visitors, i recommend paying the extra fee to get a seat with a view of the CN tower. there is a lot to choose from on this menu from classic steakhouse dishes to sushi. sides are separate and shareable. it's a tad pricey but wort
Aera of errors
This is a restaurant on top of the Well in Toronto. Great view of the Toronto skyline. The restaurant is over priced for its food and service. We were a table of 8 and when dinners arrive they were all placed in the wrong place. Service was slow and
Lovely dinner venue
Company hosted event for customers was superb. The wait staff was attentive but not dominant. The prix fixe menu offered great selections and the food was delicious. The view of Toronto was spectacular all around. Would recommend this for business or
Pay for the view…not for the food. Save your money and avoid this place
Save your money. The sushi is over-priced. You pay triple the price and get the same quality sushi and tempura from your local Japanese restaurant. The $250 seafood tower is sub par - a couple shrimps and crappy sides. Just like all the other O&B
Aera Toronto. Oh I love you.
Am I the first? Yes I am!. And let me tell you, I recommend arranging a seat near the window as the views of Toronto are spectacular from the 38th floor. My sister is in town from up north and we decided to come down here for dinner as a group of 4
Connect with users posting reservations for Aera Toronto
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Aera Toronto. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Aera Toronto at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Aera Toronto page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Aera Toronto to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Aera Toronto!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
