Best Japanese Restaurants in Koreatown

Fabulous again. This was my second visit and my husband’s first- we both loved it and felt there wasn’t anything on the menu that wouldn’t be great. Staff is attentive and ambiance is on point. Excited to come back sometime.

Favourite restaurant in Toronto! Never had a bad experience. Highly recommend the shrimp tempura, shrimp tataki, and the torched salmon.

We decided to use Winterlicious to try out Aera. First of all the view is amongst the best in North America , overlooking the city with the CN tower and lakes in full view. Truly breathtaking. Our server was highly attentive. We both started with the Beet and Goats Cheese salad which was beautifully presented and bursting with flavour. My wife had the Salmon Pone Bowl with Edamame, Avocado, Quinoa flavoured with ginger and a delicious sauce. I had the Pork Loin Schnitzel with some of the best roasted potatoes I have ever eaten. The star of the meal however was the Sticky Toffee Pudding which came with praline encrusted ice cream, it scored 20 out of 10. From this first experience we have decided to celebrate our anniversary this year with dinner and some nice wine at Aera and to enjoy the full menu experience. I have had the luck through my career to have eaten at many of the worlds finest restaurants, I do not exaggerate when I say I would place Aera in my top 10 for ambience and quality. A real experience

First time here and I will be back! The restaurant its self is so beautiful! The food is amazing !!! They wagyu tacos and lamb chops were definitely a hit including the shrimps! The service was sooo good our server was so sweet & patient, very talkative & informative. We were celebrating a birthday and had an amazing night, overall experience was 10/10.

Everything was delicious. The Beef Curry Cheese Bibimbap was amazing. The eggplant and tofu dish was really good too. We loved the Tokyo Spicy Fries and the sushi. My Umi Mojito was refreshing and my friend loved her Lychee Mojito. It was really loud because a company was having a staff party but it's a popular place. So, we understand.
