Fishbone Kitchen + Bar - Aurora

We had a very pleasant meal with friends in fishbone. our server was excellent, he had great knowledge about the menu and his attention was second to none. our meals were very good and did not take time to reach the table. I would definitely recommend. this restaurant for a very pleasant meal.

This used to be our go to restaurant for special occasions, or just when we wanted a nice evening out. Sadly, covid seems to have struck again. The first indication that things were amiss was when our Thursday evening reservation was abruptly cancelled, with no...option provided. We did manage to call them and re book for Friday. (The person I spoke to made it seem that they were doing me a huge favour we can squeeze you in at 5:45 but believe it or not the restaurant was half empty the whole time we were there. The couple we were with arrived before us, and they were led to a 4 person table where the maitre d began removing one of the place settings stating the reservation was for 3. They assured him it was for 4 and he left, but shortly thereafter the waitress began removing the 4th place setting. Later in the evening I showed him the reservation confirmation on my phone and it clearly said Table for 4 . His response was well you 're here aren 't you. Service was long, we 'd almost finished 2 bottles of wine before dinner arrived. I ordered the steak, shown on the online menu as Steak 31 Grilled 8oz Flat Iron Charred Tomato Poblano Chimichurri Grilled Green Onion Fries. What I got was cold steak, fries and some mayo. all for the delightful price of $31.00. We were advised that the menu had changed that very day. One chicken dish that would not have fed a 5 year old. Essentially a piece of chicken with some undefined veggies. So sad... This used to be something special, with the proteins paired with delicious sides that complimented each other. Place that with the arrogant demeaning attitue of the Maitra d, who basically made it our fault that service was slow because we didn 't order an appetizer, but went directly to the main courses, but... there were no appeitzers that appealed since they had removed the squash blossoms (a particular treat the hearts of romain, which used to be our go to salad and had little other choices. And then he had the audacity to come to our table and tell us that he had checked the restaurant 's history and could not find that we had ever been there before. The people we were with came up from Willowdale to meet us there. They have been there at least 4 times with us having made the reservations. We have been there ourselves at least 10 times, the last being just before the lock down last fall. Sadly well not be returning. I will miss having Fishbone on our go to special night list.

Great food. Love love love the Brussels sprouts. Also had the roasted peach salad and pizza with sopresatta. Enjoyed it all! Service from Claire and Grant was very personable and attentive. Will definitely be back. Our favourite place in York Region.

Went there for the first time for our anniversary and we had Sierra as our server. To start, she was fantastic! Everything we had from the nightly drink special-Sangria Sours to appetizers of anchovy toasts and clams and mussels in wine and garlic broth to...the whole grilled sea bass. It was all wonderful. I actually preferred the lower seating capacity as it was more personal and less noisy. The fresh Mediterranean flavors were thoroughly enjoyed by us both. Cheers to the staff for making it a memorable evening.

This is by far the best restaurant we have found in Aurora. It is the closest you get to a fine dining experience in this area; it is more of a local fine restaurant. The food size is enough to make you fill full and...satisfied and the quality and food decoration is fine. It is perfect for a couples date night out and the prices are not too high to make it a one time annual dinner; it can easily be a regular place that you visit when you do not want to drive all the way t Toronto to get a good meal. The only issue is that there is not many people in this place whenever we have visited. It seems to be too quiet which makes one wonder where are the rest of the people in the city eating?! Every time we have visited at around 6:30 PM, there are at most 6 other guests in the restaurant.
