Ayara Thai Cuisine offers a taste of authentic Thai food where quality is never compromised by price.

Stopped here for dinner after pick up at LAX. Tried different dishes than what we usually order at Thai restaurants: crispy calamari dipped in corn meal (light and crunchy); lamb duck salad (generous slices of duck breast and a wedge of cabbage); and Rad Na - broad flat noodles, Chinese broccoli and shrimp (surprised that it was a soup). These dishes were very flavorful and delicious! Good service.

Cafe Gratitude

Reviewed By rickpoet

If you're the kind of person who often scours menus, wondering what items on them will suit your special diet (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, etc…) then you'll be delighted at Café Gratitude, where every single thing is vegan, and in an unusual turn of events, they have to specifically labeled on the menu what ISN’T gluten-free.Throw in free underground parking in the middle of Los Angeles and you have the recipe for the place that you should probably go and eat.I've been doing a handful of their locations all over Southern California and I've noticed their menu changes seasonally. For example at another location I had a southern-style plate which no longer is on the menu. I was looking forward to eating it, but I am always impressed by a restaurant that changes their menu with the seasons, essentially offering you a new and fresh experience every time you go.This time around, I had the Elated. (quick sidenote to mention that you have the potential to have a spiritual experience while ordering as you have the option of expressing who you are by the title of the food you choose for example, you don't just say “I'll have The elated”, you say "I am elated" and the server will know exactly what you mean and affirm your choice. Honestly sometimes I'm not really into that vibe and just want to order food and not have a forced spiritual intervention, and they don’t force it on you…but just be prepared for it if it’s not your vibe. The Elated was tempe enchiladas served under a mole sauce. This was super good and such a great treat to have a vegetarian mole sauce.Our table also shared the coconut-based calamari appetizer. These are deep-fried and really tasty as well with a good and unique sauce. I've never had real calamari as I've been a vegetarian for so long, but this didn't taste like I was just eating flavored coconut. I really liked it.Our 10-year-old was a bit hesitant about the whole menu as he still has a pretty simple powered, but he did love the smoky spicy but are not squash soup that he ordered.I have the rose sangria to drink with my meal. It was delicious with grapefruit, rose wine, sage and agave. It was refreshing and not too sweet and very lovely.We were there for a birthday celebration so it was unfortunate that they were out of most of their cake desserts, but we did have the raw “Almond Joy” bar which was good.My wife, the birthday girl herself, enjoyed the ball and everything that she ate. In the end everyone was happy we had plenty of things to choose from and we loved the free parking. We’ll definitely be back.

Some of the best Korean food I’ve had outside of Seoul. Meat is BBQ’ed at your table. Huge variety of side dishes.Friendly and helpful staff. Well laid out restaurant, nicely decorated. Parking on the nearby side streets is limited to an hour. We were told parking enforcement is strict so make sure to move your car after an hour

Reviewed By James T

As so many have noted, the food is both exquisite in taste and presentation. Several of the courses ranked among the best I have ever had. We also were very fortunate in that our dinner partners procured our reservation on the first try! I felt that the sake pairings weren't worth the price. They did not seem to accent the dishes the way a good wine pairing can -- though to be fair, I am not all that familiar with sake so perhaps it is my lack of experience. I also felt that the sitting should either be about a half hour longer or two dishes shorter -- we felt a bit rushed at the end.But in the end, the ambiance, service, food and presentation far outweighed the minor complaints and the experience was very much worth it.

Do not order your food for delivery because they lie. Initially they give a reasonable 30 minute estimate. In reality, I believe it’s a deception. Once you pay online, what’s the rush? An hour and a half later, the food arrives with no apology. Find somewhere else to order from.
