We live very close to Aiyara and indulge in their delivery service when we are too lazy to cook dinner. The food always arrives well before the 45 minutes we are told when ordering, piping hot and fresh from their kitchen - best delivery food ever! The vegetarian spring rolls are quite large, and the sweet chili dipping sauce is quite good. The pad thai is a huge portion and usually lasts us a few days (which is great for leftover lunches). The chicken is tender and never under or overcooked. My favourite dish is their red curry - best I've had in Ottawa! Can't recommend this restaurant enough, it's quite a little gem.
We went for lunch, taking a friend out for her birthday. We had chosen the restaurant based on the reviews here and because it was close. The decor was beautiful, intimate and cosy. We were seated and menus brought immediately. When the waitress brought our water, we were ready to order. We all ordered one of the lunch specials (smaller portions with complimentary soup). The food is excellent, served quickly and piping hot. There was a very minor glitch in which two people got their meals and one had to wait (for over five minutes) but as the place was almost filled to capacity at that point, it was understandable. Just the amount of people there for lunch was a testament to this restaurant's reputation. I will definitely return and soon!!!
We keep returning to Aiyara--eating in treated as royalty, take out orders requires a very short wait, and either way the food is delicious.
Tried this Aiyara out after after reading the glowing reviews on this site and have to agree - it is a hidden gem with great care put into the details. Subtle flavors, great food, just right portions, and impeccable service. A cozy, quiet atmosphere. Can't wait to go back!
This is the best restaurent in all of Ottawa!!! I bring everyone I know here!
