Aviator Danforth

Worth Trying. Have been wondering about this place for a long time. Great decor/aesthetic trying for that higher end energy, but something is missing like when compared to a Sora. Burger was good, seasoned well, fries were nice, good amount of ketchup. Duck Tacos are recommended, great sweet and savoury taste. Fish and chips looking properly fried and crispy. Eggplant cakes are not much to write about, not really worth it and flavours weren't clear. At $70-80pp not really sure there is value found here. At first I thought the menu looked like a higher end small plates pub/bar, but then it tries to take on a higher end feel with certain items- not sure what it's trying to be. Takes AMEX.

Ordered the High Tea for my MiL's birthday. Email was answered quickly as were my questions about payment and pick up. The lunch was delightful - Halloween themed - and delicious! Each boxed meal hold PLENTY of delectable treats to fill hearty eaters read my husband . In fact we had enough left over in each box for another meal/snack each. The lovely extra for my MiL with the ribbon and happy birthday message was so thoughtful. We will definitely try dining in once this lovely little place reopens to that option.

I went here recently with my friend, and due to an issue with their fridge, the restaurant had to close. However, the owner was unable to get in touch with my friend so he stayed open 3 hours until we arrived to let us know! We felt terrible my friend especially for not checking her messages, apologized and thought that was that. But then he insisted we still come in, his fridge was back working, and he served us dinner! So he stayed open all evening just to not disappoint two guests. Amazing service, delicious food and an unforgettable dining experience. I will be back again and I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a great dining experience, without the downtown prices!

I ordered Afternoon Tea X 4, one of every cookie and a bottle of Kim Crawford Rose. It was excellent, something a little different from the Covid short list of take out preferences. The meal became a conversation piece and was a highlight of my wife's birthday. Highly recommend.

This place hits excellence on many levels. The space itself is beautiful. Really well-designed. The staff are attentive and fun, and the vibe is great. Really relaxing and comfortable. The food was superb. No wonder, as one of the owners also owns a local catering business, Cinq. The cocktails were well-made. The wine list is short, but well curated. The food was reasonably priced for a solid experience. Loved everything about it!

Just wow ! Had tea at my mother in laws and she ordered from Aviator. What a treat, the petite sandwiches were so tasty. The clotted cream and scone was also delicious. Recommend highly

Came here for brunch and first impressions were that the place was beautiful! E were asked to change seats to allow a bigger group to sit where we were but were very kindly rewarded with some delicious warm mini croissants on the house. One chocolate, one almond and one butter. The house smoked salmon was so good I asked if they sold it to the public. The Benny was good but if you really enjoy the traditional Benny this might not be for you as it's on a thin slice of croissant. The hollandaise felt overly light too. I found it a little expensive given the serving size. If you like small plates this will work for you but I had my hungry teenage godson with me and we needed to get dessert somewhere else. So I would say it's good but has room for improvement.

Super friendly staff, cute Victorian style tea! Our favourites were the chicken tarragon sandwich and scones. The menu rotates, so check their social media before ordering!

The food was delicious! Pico de Gallo Shrimp, sumptuous braised short ribs with a parsnip crisp and asparagus tips and sticky toffee pudding! Definitely going back! Great staff as well!

Accidently deleted so apologies. I love this new option in the east end. I would characterise it as contempory Canadian with unexpected flavour and texture combinations. 2 specific examples would be the seared scallops with ham, cheese and apples, the other being the charcuterie board with pickled daikon and pickled and marinaded watermelon. The only thing that stopped a 5 star review was I prefer my octopus more charred and I wanted way more of the braised liquid reduction since it was so good. It was super flavourful and tender. The vibe is modern and cozy. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive.
