We spoke to the manager weeks in advance and he had given us three options of a preset menu to pick from. When we arrived in a Thursday evening, the place was packed. We figured it's because the government has been wishy washy about clothing places down again because of the pandemic. So we didn't mind waiting. Except we had reservations at 7:30 and sat down at 8:15. It just kept getting messier from here Although we already discussed a present menu, we were offered regular menu and had to once again say we discussed a preset menu weeks in advance. Option of a salad, main and dessert. I won't speak for my colleagues but I wasn't impressed at all. I got the iceberg something salad. was literally an iceberg lettuce DRENCHED in blue cheese dressing. I didn't finish it. Then I ordered a steak and lobster. That was the only thing that worked for me. My steak was good through and my lobster was done right. For dessert, all I wanted was a cheesecake to which they didn't have so I literally didn't have a dessert. It was a pie/cobbler option or an ice cream cake option. But because it was a preset menu, each member of the party still was to pay the $70. Im glad my company paid for everything but still. I just wasn't impressed enough to say I enjoyed my experience. If it wasn't for my colleagues.

I have been to thier location in Mississauga and the experience there was exceptional in every way....But this Hwy 7 location close to 427 hwy was a nightmare and I will never be coming back to this location ever again !!!! FOOD 2/5  let's start with the food prep the middle aged afro-American man making my sandwich was dropping pieces of smoked meat on the counter on the scale then putting it back in my sandwich ..then he only put on one glove yet he was touching my sandwich with his hand that had no glove.  The food was thrown into container so carelessly that the coleslaw container lid was not closed and all the juices spilled out and soaked into my  sandwich bread all wet and soggy. The meat portion was decent but I did not enjoy the sandwich on soggy bread and the coleslaw itself was horrible in taste possibly not fresh . The stinginess at this place is off the charts!!! I asked for a pepper instead of a pickle and I got neither with my sandwich ...at the other locations you always get a pickle or hot cherry pepper with your sandwich ...then I ask for some mustard and she gives me a small plastic cup with less then a half of a packet of mustard in it as shown in my picture with a boat load of attitude on top of it. I got no napkins and no fork or spoon to eat the coleslaw with I had to return inside restaurant and ask for one that's how stingy this restaurant is with their customers. SERVICE...0/5 Horiuble service , attitude !attitude!!From the moment I walked in, the white middle aged lady does not know what the word smile means and greeting your customers in a friendly manner...she seemed to have an issue and attitude with everything i ordered . Extremely rude . Unfriendly and had no clue what customer service means .. This was a classic book example 101 of what not to do or how to treat your paying customers .for a sandwich and a drink with nothing else it cost me $22 plus tax so I would expect much better service and quality in their food prep ....the owner should fire these workers and hire new people cause I surely wood .  Stay away from this location not recomended at all!!!

The honey garlic smoked wings were delicious! Fell off the bone as well and was very well sauced. The fries were crispy even with the sauce on top. 10/10 for value! The entire pack was about 20$ after taxes and I really can't complain about anything at all. They give you enough to fill your stomach up and have some food possibly to spare. 9/10 for customer service, the staff were really pleasant and was attending to our needs for extra sauces and anything we needed. 6/10 for space, I wished it was a tad more spacious.

But what can I say? I've never had pork that was as tender and juicy like this! It was so surprising cause the pork souvlaki from food courts are always on the drier side but not here! And the in-house tzatziki sauce? Mouthwatering! The portions (if you've not already heard) are huge and explain the higher price for a plate (around 23$+). If you're not too hungry, you can definitely split a plate. Despite the fast paced environment, the staff kept a good vibe and even offered to have me come back after eating to pick up my cheesecake slice so it can be kept cold until then. That to me shows they care about our experience dining at their restaurant. Can't wait to be back!

The place is a food court style seating arrangement so you'll have to find your own seat. Order and pay at the front as well, staff will clean your area once done.

Got the fish & chips which showed two pieces on the photo but I only got one. Disappointing. Place is decent. Rating 4/5, would come here again and order something else.

Next time I would probably do a little bit of everything for their toppings. I think more noodles could have been added for a large pho but I was full. Next time I'd come to try more of their bbq items and appetizers. It's a bit of a splurge but definitely has a unique menu!

It is an easy place to pop in for dinner without too much planning, especially during the week when you can usually get seated without a wait. Our consistent go-to's: braised meatballs, mozzarella sticks, public Caesar (my fave in the city better than Jacob's imo) ciao bella rigatoni, and the steak frites. Their burger and tiramisu is good too. The first time I ordered their ciao Bella rigatoni for some reason it wasn't good, but after that I keep ordering it cuz it HITS. We've tried their salami pizza and the chicken parm I thought was mid. Their drinks are amazing though, my fave is the tiramisu martini but I also love their other cocktails. The Milan melon is delish, so is the rosemary limon spritz and the bellini is refreshing. The cocktail list in general is elite for a king west restaurant. On weekends it is much busier and often fully booked, so reservations are a must, but if you come right when they open for lunch at 12 pm, you can walk in, but it fills up quickly. Service has always been super friendly and consistent, which is part of why we keep coming back. Overall, it is a dependable spot with good food, good drinks, and a lively atmosphere.

This was an absolutely pathetic pizza. VERY sparse on the toppings and was composed of pizza dough & tomato sauce. All for just $23.00 as a happy hour special. The service was team service. We had several different servers. All were fast & pleasant. I rated this a 3 star but for me, with the stinginess of the food...it's not a do over.

I visited Aera at The Well after seeing it all over social media! I heard it was owned by the same…read morepeople that own Canoe, so I had high expectations. Upon entering I was really impressed by the view, I loved how the entire dining area is surrounded by windows, it feels like you're eating in the sky (you're on the 38th floor!). Note that it's around $20 for a window seat, which is a bit pricey in my opinion. Here's everything we ordered: Aera cornbread: This was the item I was most excited for! I love corn bread and this one was delicious. The inside was soft and pillowy, and the outside was crispy. The aged cheddar and honey butter were a nice touch that really elevated the dish! I could taste the pimento cheese inside as well, which I don't usually like because I don't like the taste of bell peppers, but I still really liked it. Maritime lobster spaghetti: This was rich and delicious! I could really taste the lobster bisque and lobster butter. It also had a decent amount of lobster in it and the portion was huge. I did ask for chilli flakes on the side because I love a kick. Rigatoncini: This one disappointed me a bit. I felt like it was missing something, the sauce tasted quite plain. We paid to add chicken but it was quite flavourless and bland. Amelia cocktail: Very refreshing and citrusy, would definitely get this again. Our waitress was so sweet and brought us free brownies because it was his birthday! You're definitely paying for the view and ambiance but I think it's perfect for a nice dinner. I'd want to come back to try their sushi/sashimi as well as their sticky toffee pudding.

The rooftop at Aera in The Well…read more I went for a friend's birthday and honestly, it impressed me. The lighting is dim and moody--not harsh at all--and the view speaks for itself. You're looking out over the entire Toronto skyline from the top of The Well. It's one of those places that just pulls you in. Usually "pretty food" means you leave hungry, but not here. The four of us were actually full, and the whole night it was just "this is good... wait, this one too." The menu blends Japanese and French influences, which makes it much more suited to an Asian palate--not your typical Western fine dining experience. 1. We ordered the chef's special wagyu steak. It was good, but a bit on the fatty side. A friend who's been twice suggested going with the regular steak instead--better texture and flavor overall. 2. Roasted Brussels sprouts--highly recommend. I usually find them bitter no matter how they're cooked, but here they were crispy with zero bitterness. Surprisingly good. 3. Lobster pasta--5/5, absolutely worth it. It has this slightly nostalgic, almost shrimp-snack kind of flavor, but with real lobster richness. Very unique and memorable. 4. Foie gras--solid dish. Exactly what you'd expect, I'd give it a 4/5. 5. Grilled octopus--also a 4/5. Well executed, nothing to complain about. 6. We got a seafood tower (not sure what they call it exactly). Presentation was beautiful--almost theatrical. Flavor-wise it's what you'd expect: lobster, uni, oysters, mussels, sashimi-style items. Good for sharing with a group. 7. There was a grilled fish dish we tried--it was just okay. Slightly fishy for my taste. Reminded me a bit of mackerel. I'd probably try their black cod next time instead. 8. There was also a salad with a texture and taste similar to yacon--slightly earthy, a bit unexpected. Not bad, just different.
