Best Food Around!

by marchepedro

My first recommendation for local restaurants is Ayara!

I love thai food and I have never tasted better. Best Food around!

The only problem i have with this place is its TOO GOOD! During the peak meal hours there's a wait list but so far I haven't waited more than 15mins.

Yes the staff are moving fast...they have too!

And they still keep the prices reasonable.

Great Thai Food

by humanice

Okay, so I've eaten at quite a lot of Thai restaurants and none of them ever taste the same. I'll admit that I haven't tried Thai Dishes right next door, but Ayara gives me no reason to.

The first time I discovered this place in the corner of nowhere, I was like wow, there are things that exist in this corner? And then when I ate at Ayara, I thought, wow... there are places in this corner that taste this good?!

The only thing that I can really say is that their pineapple fried rice is sometimes off, where it's really watery, but other times it's perfect. I don't know about you, but pineapple fried rice not being mushy is kind of a big deal to me.

Everything else I've tried on the menu is pretty awesome though. I would probably eat here every week if I could. Food is prepared nicely, clean, and average prices for getting clean/good service.

Good food, horrible service every single time!

by ach

I'm disappointed that every time I dine here, the service is horrible. The only reason I keep going back is because the food is good. One time I got my food when everyone in my party had finished eating. The last time I went there, the server put 6 glasses of water next to me and asked me to pass it around and was unhappy about it when I gave her a "this is not my job" look. And the food always took forever to come out even when they are not busy. If you have an hour for lunch, dont' go there.

  • Pros: good food
  • Cons: long wait for food and the service is horrible
