Food was delicious! We loved everything about our experience! Would definitely stop by next time I'm in Temecula.

The the elephant fountain located inside is nice as nice as it gets. There are no real traditional Thai chefs in their kitchen! What they serve seems to be premade and stored for possible microwave warm up. They use a pit fryer for tofu etc. I was shocked at how terrible it was! People who don’t know anything about actual Thai food dine here!

These guys continue to impress. We've been dining at Aiyara for around 12 years since we moved into town. The ambiance is quiet, and romantic if that's your thing. The food has always been 5 stars. We've loved their veggie spring rolls, the Pad Thai is nummy, but we go there mostly for their curry. Doesn't matter which kind, they're all good. We occasionally opt to add on a couple of Thai teas when we're feeling saucy. Highly recommended. Be ready for a wait on holidays (especially stuff like Valentine's Day).

Note: Writing this as part of a party of 7, just to be clear. Your experience may not be as bad because they may have only given us this experience for that reason. And honestly, if that is the case, they need to not do parties of certain sizes.Our half of the table went ignored for much of the visit today.When they passed out silverware, they had other guests in our party pass us our silverware. I’d rather not have other people passing me my silverware, having multiple people touching it. Would have been nice to just have the server come to our end and hand us our silverware.Then when she took down our orders, she had us practically yell across the table to her our orders instead of coming down to us. I didn’t even know it was my turn until someone tapped me.Then when we got our drinks, she had them pass my drink to me. Somebody passed me a water, not what I had ordered, but we had assumed everyone was getting water plus their drink. Just a lot of unnecessary confusion.When we got our food, they did bring it directly to us, which was nice.When they came around to ask if we needed anything extra, our end of the table was ignored. When they came to refill water, they ignored our side as well. It’s difficult to get any server’s attention. Like they don’t have peripheral vision and can only see what is in their walkway.I wanted some siracha sauce or something spicy as a sauce. Never got a chance to ask for it, even trying to flag someone down.The food was okay. I had a crab fried rice. I only tasted one piece of crab in the entire dish though, so it was more like just fried rice with a pinch of crab.Not coming back though, that’s for sure.

I've been here a couple of times now. The food has been great both times. The portions are sensible while not being small. The atmosphere is a bit upscale without being formal. The waitstaff have all been very friendly and service has been great. Great choice for Thai food in Temecula.

Their food is sooooo delicious and flavorful. The drunken noodles are incredible! Ambience is nice too. You can’t go wrong with this spot.

The service is fast and very professional. I also love the decorations inside. It brings some of the Thai cultures along with the vibes. The food however is ok compared with other Thai places I have gone.

What is there not to like? The atmosphere, the food, the music, the decoration, all blending into a beautiful mix of elegance and serenity. Almost like a feeling of meditation, 100% recommend.

Delicious food, excellent service and beautiful ambiance. We ordered the Green Curry combination plate and the Aiyara Platter appetizer. We loved everything about this place! Will be back for sure.

Edit : can I give 0 stars ? Now apparently they have never had any vegan possibilities. There is "oyster sauce" and "shrimp extract" in all of their "vegetarian" options. If I would not have called to make sure order was correct they never would have made our family aware. Mean while 45 dollars for two soups is outrageous anyways.Original: Need to ask for vegetable broth for their veggie soups. Also charge an arm and a leg for delivery to get here. Hour later the order is wrong even after paying extra to have what was ordered. Waste of time, money, and food.Response: yes you can make it right by refunding me everytime I've ever been there and lied to. This is negligence on the restaurant behalf.
