   Had an excellent dining experience! The steak was cooked to perfection—juicy, flavorful, and exactly as ordered. The service was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Highly recommend for a great meal!

   The service was horrible, from the hostesses (with the exception of one girl who showed us to our seat, she was great), to our wait staff. It was my husbands birthday, they didn't even acknowledge it. Not upon entry, not at the table, not even a simple strawberry...the only time we got any politeness was when we asked for the bill. They sat us in the MIDDLE of the fining room with no lights above us whereas all the rest of the patrons were seated around the restaurant for a view or even with light. We used our phone flash to see our food. The food was good, overrated. We had the sushi (exceptional), the the foie gras, the brochette (overrated, too much sauce, but nice to look at), raw oysters and drinks. We didn't have dinner, the waiter rarely checked on us and came over with attitude and said "last call, do you want anything". WTF... Horrible experience, we paid, left a 15% tip on a $450 bill and went to eat dinner somewhere else.

   Aera is one of my favourite restaurants to celebrate anything. It was my boyfriend’s birthday and I brought him to celebrate. The food is AMAZING! I ordered the rigatoni and he ordered the stuffed chicken with a side of mash potatoes. The portions are amazing you will definitely leave feeling full! The restaurant has a stunning view over the city, and it is an amazing place to take cute photos. Staff is really sweet, and definitely makes you feel welcomed. The prices are reasonable and you won’t break the bank to eat luxury.

   We were there to celebrate my sons birthday and the ambiance was perfect, the view is beautiful. The service was fine, just average nothing special. I am a foodie and I have to say that the food was ok, nothing that great. I was disappointed with the seafood tower and for the price definitely not worth it. Some of the dishes were actually not even edible. The steak was ok, again nothing special. I spent $1000 with tip for 4 people and I had one cocktail and one glass of wine so the rest was just in food. I have actually never written a review before, but when you spend that kind of money you expect to leave that experience with satisfaction and unfortunately we didn’t. The restaurant and view are beautiful but that’s it.

   Went for Happy Hour. Great drinks / cocktails. Bar food was good. Would like to see more variety. Ended up having dessert and it was heavenly divine. The view around the restaurant can’t be beat. Great to watch sunsets. City view is spectacular. All round great place. Will be back.

   Honestly everything was great! It was my first time there and I already miss it. The whole experience felt very luxurious and the staff were so nice. Service was amazing, everything came on time if not early. They even brought out a special birthday cake. Very welcoming and good energy. I got their special Sunday roast which was the New Zealand wagyu (halal option) and it was so filling and totally worth it. Drink were great, I wish there were more mocktail options though!

   Incredible brunch at Aera. Shared croissant, truffle fries, fresh fruit, sushi, bacon, key lime pie and two lattes. Got sat right by the window looking at the gn tower. Restaurant was quiet, service was friendly and professional.

    Food and ambience was great. Server was dry and absent comparing to other restaurant. Second time going don’t think I’ll go back again. Weekends the music is very loud.
