I recently dined at Aera during restaurant week for a girls' dinner, drawn by the allure of Northern European cuisine. We opted for their dinner menu, which included an add-on dish priced at an astonishing $188 for a single skinny chicken leg.

Taste and Presentation -
The overall taste and presentation of the food were good, but nothing exceptional. Each dish was beautifully plated and showcased interesting flavor combinations. However, the portion sizes were shockingly small. All three of us found it hard to believe how little food was served; it’s hard to imagine how this would satisfy anyone, let alone a group of guys!

Service -
Unfortunately, the service was a significant downside. The staff seemed unfriendly, and their attitude left much to be desired. It felt as though we were more of an inconvenience than valued guests.

Final Thoughts -
Given the price point, I believe there are much better dining options in Hong Kong. While Aera has potential with its culinary offerings, the combination of tiny portions and lackluster service makes it hard to recommend.

Overall, our experience left us disappointed, and I doubt we’ll be returning anytime soon.
