Restaurants near Canadian National Exhibition

We enjoyed every course of our meals. We started with the foie gras, salted cod, warm olives and honey butter and bread and everything was delicious. My husband had the roast chicken for his main and for the side he had the macaroni and cheese and both were excellent. I had the duck which is served on top of a bean cassoulet. The duck skin was perfectly crispy and the duck went so well with the cassoulet. My daughter had the classic steak and frittes and her steak was cook perfectly. We shared two tarts for dessert-one lemon and one chocolate. Both were divine. Highly recommend Le Sélect.

As always, an excellent dining experience. Terrific service and quality. Staff is always extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely one of our favourite restaurants.

Servers were so nice! They were more friendly and warm rather than cold and respectful, felt like they were focused on taking care of our experience over the foods experience which was a nice change. Food came out so quick and was great, despite the pasta coming out a little cold. Ambiance and noise levels were perfect for a date night. The "Tap that Cake" was an affordable desert that overall added to the great experience. Would highly recommend to any visitors!

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

The beet ravioli salad was unique and delicious. The entrees were good portions and very tasty.
