My husband and I went here while in town for State tournaments. The food was wonderful! The service was the best we’ve ever had! Waiters constantly had our glasses full! We were very pleased
The Ayala's special is delicious as is the El volcanito. Steak had quite a bit of fat on it which I personally do not like but the pieces of the steak that I did eat were good. The shrimp tasted amazing. Guacamole salad was great as well. Staff is super friendly and attentive! I will say the restaurant definitely needs better lighting though.
Excellent food, service and atmosphere! Loved it!!!
Absolutely amazing! The prices were really great, the service was fantastic, and the food was amazing! There were options for my vegetarian family members as well! Loved it here so much! Hope to come back soon!
Great spot! Raul and Carlos have taken great care each time I've been. Drinks made with freshly squeezed fruit juice. Have tried three separate meals and each one has been fantastic!
This is the first time i have been here but certainly not the last. There is adequate parking, access is easy and the place is clean and fresh when you walk in. The menu is extensive and everything looked very good as it was served. I chose the Miami Loca, a dish with chicken and shrimp served in half a pineapple with beans, salad etc on the side and tortillas. Beers are served in an ice cold glass and all in all it was one of the best Mexican restaurant meals I have had. I would certainly recommend this place.
This place was awesome service was great very friendly. Food came out quickly tasted really good. If I'm ever back in this area I will definitely stop by I'm passing by on my trucker it's hard to find good places to eat at times I'll definitely be back here if I'm coming through.
Dining at Ayala's in Clarksville was a truly exceptional experience.

Our server, Raul, demonstrated remarkable attentiveness and expertise, providing insightful recommendations while ensuring that our dining experience was seamless and gratifying.
