Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Entertainment District

Have wanted to try this restaurant for a long time. Each dish was beautifully presented, showcasing a variety of flavors, colors, and textures. Surprisingly, the dishes incorporated a lot of Asian flavors paired with French techniques. Most of the dishes were excellent and unique, though there were a couple of misses. The service was good, with attentive staff. The ambiance was decent and comfortable, not suffocating or uncomfortable at all. Overall, I enjoyed my time and dinner here.

The bacon and halloumi are a bit salty, and we waited for a little bit longer. But overall experience was outstanding as we liked the ambiance and the service.

I went to Aera ( in The Well ) with my sister who lives in BC and she wanted a rooftop with a good view. Aera is 38 stories and has an amazing view of downtown Toronto . We were at the Chef's counter and had a great views of the CN Tower. The host was great. She showed us two options for seating, where we were reserved and one more option. I had the mac and cheese which was delicious. They put mushroom and onion in it. And we each had a cocktail. I had the Amelia, I think it was called. It was tasty but quite small, that was the only thing. My sister's cocktail was a more reasonable size. The guys beside us had a cheeseburger and it looked so good! The service was great . They server was friendly and service was fairly quick . The restaurant is on the more pricey side and so are the drinks. But if you are looking for a great view of the city it's worth it. I definetly recommend and would go again.

Visiting from Newfoundland and this was the best meal of our trip (and we went to several bib gourmand restaurants)! Absolutely amazing Italian food, with phenomenal service and a chef who puts a lot of heart into her food and her restaurant. I’m so glad we came here— all four of my party had a different pasta and they were each amazing in their own way— I’ll be back for sure, would highly recommend !

They did not have our reservation for some reason, but accommodated us anyways. Beautiful restaurant, delicious food.
