Best Japanese Restaurants in Dovercourt Village

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.

It was a lovely dining experience first time there and truly enjoyed our evening. Service was excellent. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the food was absolutely phenomenal. The chef created a special menu for Valentine’s Day and I’m so glad we chose. I got to experience some foods that I wouldn’t normally ever order. We will be back.

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.
