“Visited Laila for lunch a few weeks after Helene raged through Asheville and surrounding areas. I want to greatly commend them for being open and making the best of a very difficult situation. As huge fans of Andaaz (their sister restaurant, flooded in Helene), we wanted to give them some business to at least help a little with their recovery. Their lunch buffet food was outstanding and similar to Andaaz's. Even on paper plates and with plastic utensils! The only drawback was the cost of parking in downtown Asheville. We need to find a better solution for that. Otherwise, we will definitely be back, especially as the city continues to recover.“
