   The place is spectacular, the views are incredible... If you're lucky, you might have a good time with a nice view (that wasn't the case for me). The service could improve, and as for the food, I can say it's good... Some dishes are good and others are better

   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 reservation directly in the Aera Restaurant website. When I went to make this change their website was having technical difficulties. The Host insisted they would look after the special seating request direct because of their technical difficulties. When I arrived they attempted to seat us in another part of the restaurant not of interest to us without honoring their commitment to the South Exposure window seat they assured us they had reserved for us for this special event. The communication among their staff is terrible and they tried to convince me that I didn't follow procedure in securing this special seating request. My wife and I walked and promise to never come back to this very unprofessional and ignorant facility. Terrible accommodations terrible management. I wouldn't even think to returning. Ignorant is the only word that comes to mind Terrible Experience

   As always we had a wonderful experience at Aera. Our seating in the bar area was quite nice with a wonderful view. Bar bites were all wonderful.

   Aera provided a memorable Mother's Day brunch, though with a few initial service hiccups. While the front-of-house staff and table service were commendable, the initial cocktail service was delayed, and two selections were unavailable, resulting in staggered delivery. However, the anime-inspired house cocktails proved to be a highlight, expertly crafted and delightful. The "all dressed" tater tots starter, which was surprisingly elevated and flavorful, was delivered with the main courses. Guests should specify if they prefer to have this dish served beforehand. The food, overall, was excellent, showcasing careful presentation and exceptional taste. The restaurant's design features sturdy furnishings and comfortable seating, complemented by spectacular city views, circular accent lighting, and open, curved wood architecture. Note that tablecloths are not used. The acoustics, however, were challenging, with a noticeable noise level amplified by the open design and lo-fi background music. While the washrooms were clean in essential areas, the sink area lacked tidiness. The host and Maîtres d' were efficient and welcoming, and our server was notably friendly and approachable.

   I had a fantastic experience! The service was exceptional—friendly, attentive, and professional from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, with generous portions and surprisingly affordable prices. On top of that, the view was stunning, making the entire dining experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for great food, service, and atmosphere all in one place
