Aiyara Thai Cuisine 41533 Margarita Road, Suite M 102 Temecula, CA 92591 Ph: 951-296-5758 www.aiyarathai.com
Aiyara Thai Cuisine offers a mesmerizing setting that allows you to explore the very best in beyond peanut sauce and curry paste.
Also – the first impression of the atmosphere, scenery, and soft-lit space of this Thai Temecula restaurant is positively breathtaking.
It is quite clear that the owners (a really lovely young couple) have invested a great deal of time, money, and passion into creating such a delightful experience for patrons. Personally, I think this is the most beautiful Thai restaurant in town offering a delicious selection of food.
Once inside, two regal elephants face one another across a fountain scene located in the center of the dining room that also displays a magical stream of water meeting in the middle. This particular feature is significant, as it represents an important part of the Thai culture and history.
Elephants have always served as a traditional symbol of royal power and peace – especially the white elephant. If you take a look at Thai art and architecture, you will start to view this animal as an embodiment of many years of spirituality and faith. The remaining details of this thoroughly impressive Thai Temecula restaurant is dipped in shades of cream, gold, ivory, and dark woods.
Intimate seating is scattered about the floor – perfect for romantic dialogue and tender touches across the table.
I feel that the service is spectacular, as servers and the owners are welcoming and rather helpful. Don’t be shy to ask about the cuisine, as it will become difficult settling on just one dish. If this is your first visit to a Thai Temecula restaurant, I suggest you make a pact with your dining party to sample each other's plates in order to indulge in the ultimate experience.
Exploring a Thai Temecula Restaurant Menu
Since each dish is prepared fresh – don’t forget to allow a bit of time for the chefs to arrange the perfect journey through spicy combinations and unforgettable flavors. Also, remember to let your server know if you prefer a mild, medium, or spicy level of seasoning.
There's nothing better than taking time out from work to enjoy the Lunch Specials at the best (in my opinion) Thai Temecula restaurant in town. Each dish is prepared with your choice of beef, chicken, pork, vegetables, shrimp, calamari, mixed seafood, or tofu.
Steamed rice, green salad, and the soup of the day is served with each selection, ranging from Gra-Paw (minced garlic, fresh chili, basil leaves, bell peppers, and bamboo shoots) to a combination of shredded ginger, onions, bell peppers, and black mushrooms.
Appetizers at Aiyara Thai Cuisine showcase a collection of unique names, including Lady Fingers (marinated shrimps wrapped in rice paper for $7.95), Angel Wings (breaded deep fried boneless chicken wings stuffed with minced chicken and other ingredients for $8.95), and Naked Shrimps (marinated shrimp wrapped with crispy egg noodles for $7.95). The Thai sweet sauce is definitely a real treat!
Do you like fried rice? Imagine sitting down to relish a delightful blend of pan-fried rice with chunks of pineapple, sweet peas, carrots, kernel corns, and raisins. Pineapple Fried Rice costs $9.95 and joins an assortment of other selections, such as Pad Thai (House Specialty with eggs and green onions), crabmeat fried rice, and Drunken Noodles (a spicy treat).
The last time we ate at this Thai Temecula restaurant, we dined on Won Ton Soup with the savory taste of marinated minced pork served in a clear chicken broth with baby bok choy.
A cup of soup costs $5.95 while a pot served with a flame underneath to keep the dish hot is priced at $11.95.
For a tasty combination of tanginess and spice, consider the Thai Style Beef Salad ($9.95), which delivers sliced grilled medium rare beef sirloin tossed with shallots, mint leaves, and cilantro
A lime dressing tops a serving of ground roasted rice to complete this international experience.
We also recommend trying the Massaman Curry ($10.95), which offers curry paste simmered in a coconut milk mixture of peanut sauce, onions, and potatoes.
To wash down your meal – don’t forget to sample Thai Iced Tea or Coffee for $2.75. Coconut juice is served for $2.50 and a variety of hot teas for $2.25. To cap off a lovely meal, I recommend sampling the Fried Banana with Ice Crème ($6.95), but I've also heard good things about the seasonal Sweet Sticky Rice with Mango.
I'd also like to mention that this very special Thai Temecula restaurant is centrally located – offering easy access to the Bel Villagio Shopping Center and creating the perfect opportunity to sample the multitude of Lunch Specials.
The Promenade Mall is also nearby, meaning you can catch the latest
blockbuster
before or after your meal. I suggest before – because once you sit down to this fantastic voyage into spicy dishes, deep-fried fish cakes, and unfamiliar ingredients such as kaffir lime leaves and the elusive flavor of galanga – you'll probably want to settle in to a relaxing evening at home.
