Food is excellent, but my large party of 12 could not pay individually! The entire table was confused and took forever to figure out. NOT convenient. The waitress said if she took individual payments it would take too long

I guess it could be better if you ate there??? We got food to go and the portions were really small and the falafel was terrible. Was hoping to add another restaurant to the rotation it it’s pretty unlikely. It’s not extremely expensive or anything, but the value for what you get is way off balance.
The menu is seasonal, so there’s always something new.

Absolutely amazing! Everything here was so full of flavor and the restaurant itself was very cozy. You've got to try the Laylas rose cocktail 🍸

My wife is Lebanese and she said that the food is very authentic. I personally enjoyed the food. I didn't give it a 5 star because I wasn't used to the flavor of the food. It was very tasty though and large portions. I would like to have had a local Lebanese beer or whiskey with dinner but overall it was good and I'll try it again.

One of my favorite spots in town! I took my son there for lunch recently, and everything we had was delicious. Amber was our server and she was so kind and on top of everything. The whole place has such a good, relaxed vibe.

I ordered the chicken curry and it was not that good, my wife didn’t like her salad as well, the rice was hard and the chicken was dry and hard, it was not tasty, and we had to wait for the bread roll, it’s not for us, maybe for others but not us. I don’t know how they were nominated as one of the best restaurant award. I’m from Los Angeles and I’ve eaten similar food, but this one was by far not even close to I’ve experienced. On a rate of 1-10, I’d give it a zero. Sorry but I’m just trying to be real.
Come hungry! Our favorite dish was an appetizer special (fried cauliflower). We also got the 4 combo platter and the falafel was delicious. For entrees we got shawarma, lamb shank, chicken kabob, and a lentil noodle dish. Everyone was stuffed and content with their meals. The food was overall good with some highs and lows but we would definitely come back. Next time I’m ordering a falafel entree because it was my favorite part. The lamb shank was also very tender

Every bite here is a spiritual awakening. I’m not even joking. One forkful in and I started questioning every past meal like, “Have I been living a lie?” The food is so good it should come with a warning label: May cause intense cravings and unrealistic expectations for future meals.
Their service? Impeccable. Our server (whose name I tragically forgot, but whose tabbouleh knowledge I shall never forget) was like a walking, talking Mediterranean menu with charm. Friendly, fast, and knew their shawarma from their moussaka.
We didn’t brave the patio this time (Utah heat = spicy enough), but I’ve dined out there before and it’s the pita-perfect spot for a date or a deep philosophical conversation about baklava.
Honestly, Layla isn’t just a restaurant, it’s a full-on mezze-merizing experience. Gold stars across the board… and falafel in my dreams forever.

Friendly, hospitable, generous, and kind owner and staff. We got a very delicious dinner for a very pleasant and close to home service. We got moghrabiyeh and short ribs. Definitely a big recommended place for joyful family and friends mealtime gatherings!
