We were surprised, on this, our first visit to Laili, how good it all was. The decor is charming, especially on a clear and temperate day in the garden. The service was friendly and prompt, and the food was an excellent fusion of middle eastern and California styles. I think that the meringue dessert was the best dessert I have ever had. The prices are a bit higher than competitors, but the experience warranted the prices.
Great food for what it is. Very reasonable. Excellent service! Servers believe in what the chef serves. Place was packed and had a waiting. They allow to bring wines with $15 corkage
Beautiful ambiance. Excellent service and great options for veggie lovers as well as g-free and dairy-free diners. Thank you for a lovely evening that was also tantalizing to the palate.
We will definitely be back with guests since there's something for everyone on the menu. We can recommend the lamb kabob, the half chicken with pomegranate sauce and the Bolani appetizer. I requested extra sauce with my lamb kabob because the apricot and cilantro flavors were so wonderful. The rice had a rich flavor and the side of vegetables was grilled to perfection.
Everything that passed by our table looked amazing, including some beautiful desserts which we lacked the room to try. Service was attentive without being intrusive. This is a great place to dine when one wants to enjoy a relaxed conversation over a beautiful meal.
My top place for quality Mediterranean food. stopped in on a monday i think. the staff was very helpful and welcoming. prices that won't shock you. feels similar to a restaurant in new york i loved.
