    Lamb cooked perfectly!  Roasted Rack of Lamb
    Megha F.

    Love love love this place!!! Our waiter Constantine was so attentive and friendly. Sitting outside is wonderful! The food is delicious. We love the kibbeh nayyeh and the rack of lambs are some of the best I've ever had! A must in WPB!

    Chicken kebab. Couscous salad. Hummus.

    Go to Leila now! Where to begin? Me and my three coworkers had business in Palm Beach today and were looking for a good lunch spot. One is on the Atkins Diet in this place looks like a good choice with plenty of meat and salad. Plus, all of us love Middle Eastern food. We were not disappointed. Parking was easy. We were greeted promptly and the staff was so friendly. The space is quaint and clean and quite welcoming. The food was definitely the highlight. I had the chicken kebab lunch with couscous salad, and a side of hummus. Everything was absolutely perfect. The chicken was cooked and seasoned exactly as it should be. All of my coworkers loved with their lunches as well. I'm definitely bringing my husband back here. I cannot say enough about the food and the service. Would love to come and watch the belly dancing too. What a great experience!

    Great Middle Eastern restaurant in Palm Beach, service was impeccable and the food was just a right amount with lots of delicious flavor appetizer we ordered the Leila tour , which offer is basically all of the delicious appetizers and one dish. I highly recommend this to start, the CHICKEN KEBOB had so much flavor and was juicy. Cannot wait to go back.

    Wonderful small dishes

    Always a family favorite we met up here for dinner. They have indoor and outdoor seating, and since it was a nice night, we sat outside. Service was really good. The waiter, bus boy, and owner all worked together to take good care of us. We ordered a wide variety of small dishes, including baba ganoush, cauliflower, little sausages, hummus, zucchini, and beef shish kabob. Everything we had was delicious and well seasoned. I loved trying all of the different options. We had the baklava for dessert, too. Great food, fair prices, nice ambiance, and good service.

    We went here with a friend who recently lost her spouse. We dined outside and we were very happy. Indeed we enjoyed the belly dancing too. Our food was delicious from the hummus and the baba ghanoush to the grilled shrimp and mixed chicken and fish! Totally delectable. It was a bit loud outside though I prefer the outside over the inside for sure! Inside it is just like any other restaurant- outside it has some pizazz. If you like middle eastern, you should go here. a you won't be sorry. It's not inexpensive to say the least - so just be prepared to drop some dough.

    Evening entertainment

    Returned a few years later. We ate outside in the back patio. Not only was the food delicious, but we enjoyed great entertainment. There were three of us. We ordered two appetizers, babakanush (egg plant) and another paste made out of red pepper. When eaten with pita bread both were delicious. For the main meal, we ordered Land and Sea. It consisted of Mahi Mahi, chicken kebob( which was a little tough) and grilled vegetables. Two appetizers and one main meal was ample food for three. Not only was the food delicious, but the entertainment was excellent. The belly dancer lit up the room with lights all over her costume. It was disappointing that we couldn't find reasonable parking. The cost was $15 for two hours at a lot a few blocks down the street. The service was excellent. Thanks for a great evening!

    Rack of lamb
    Andrea U.

    A wonderful evening that felt like a mini vacation. There was a pretty garden that was covered but in August it's just plain too hot. The Mediterranean was prepared by a Lebanese chef with a belly dancer on weekends = A special evening. Francisco our waiter was on point. The menu looked fabulous there was a lot to choose from it was difficult. Six of us started with warm fresh pita olive oil and herbs. There was a very nice wine list I enjoyed my Chardonnay and friends there Moscato's and Mojito's. We started with the steak tartare and friends started with tabouli. My husband and I shared a rack of lamb with vegetables and rice. The lamb was lean, juicy, cooked to perfection with memorable exotic seasoning. The grilled vegetables were very flavorful. Friends enjoyed their lamb shank, kebab and mixed grill. The baklava for dessert was delicious. Can't wait to come back again!

    This restaurant is incredible if you want high quality Mediterranean food such as kabobs. We got their special grill for W which included chicken, beef, lamb, and shrimp kabobs. Each was perfect in their own way. The chicken was moist and well spiced. The beef was cooked to a nice medium and was quite tender. The lamb was rich and fatty, and the shrimp was charred beautifully. It also came with a large side of rice, pita bread. And grilled vegetables. This is a dish I highly recommend if you're in the area and want tasty, fresh food.

    Visited Leila for dinner with some friends. They have a Belly dancer at 7 pm. Food was amazing as always. I visited this restaurant many times throughout the years. The chicken skewers were tender and deliciously seasoned, accompanied by cold couscous and sauté zucchini. The Beef skewers were cooked perfectly with warm rice and zucchini. The appetizers were tasty and on point. Alex the owner, is Lebanese, and his food is still f good quality. There is sitting inside , or outside. Street parking by meter, or by a garage close by on Clematis.

The first thing we noticed, which was a bit unexpected, was the decor. The ambiance was really nice and inviting. This is the type of restaurant where someone could host a party. The service was really good too. We received water almost immediately after being seated, and our server came by shortly after. The manager stopped by throughout our visit to provide recommendations, and he was really nice. It made the experience feel more personal. For our appetizer, we ordered the Baba Ghannouj, which complemented the pita bread really well. It was our first time having it, and we did not know what to expect, but it was great. It was really flavorful, and we finished it wanting more. For our entrees, we had the Lamb Chops and the Seafood Tagine. The lamb chops were great. It was not a huge portion, but the meat was flavorful and cooked well. The presentation was also really nice. The Seafood Tagine looked great, and the sauce was incredibly flavorful. Everything about the dish worked well together, and we felt that all the flavors complemented one another. There was a good harmony between the ingredients. For dessert, we ordered the Kunafa, which was another first for us. We had never had it before, but the description really sold us on it. It was really good. This is the kind of dessert that is best shared since it is a little heavy. Toward the end of our visit, a belly dancer came out to perform, and it was really exciting. La Vie is a great restaurant, and we will definitely return. We felt as though we got a true Mediterranean experience during our visit.

We started with batata harra and cheese bulak. Both were great! The potatoes in the batata harra were very well seasoned and flavorful. The cheese bulak was good but might be a little off putting if your not use to mintiness in your cheese. A belly dancer came out and went around to all the tables and really engaged with everyone. For our entrees we got chicken tagine and lamb chops. I must say the lamb chops were phenomenal. Perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection. I definitely recommend getting them medium. All in all if you're looking for something different definitely go check it out!

    Nasif 03-14-2025…read more We recently hosted an engagement party for about 50 guests at Layali Miami, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice for a special celebration. The restaurant offers a beautiful atmosphere that blends elegance with a lively Middle Eastern vibe, making it perfect for a memorable event. From the moment we started planning, the staff was extremely accommodating and professional. They were responsive, flexible with the setup, and helped organize the seating so our group felt comfortable while still enjoying the energy of the restaurant. For a group of around 50 people, the space worked very well and still felt intimate rather than crowded. The food was one of the highlights of the evening. Guests loved the variety of authentic Middle Eastern dishes, especially the fresh mezze, flavorful grilled meats, and delicious desserts. The presentation was excellent and the portions were generous, which made sharing and enjoying the meal together easy for a large group. The ambiance added a lot to the celebration. The music, lighting, and décor created a festive mood that felt perfect for an engagement party. Many guests commented on how unique and fun the environment was compared to a typical restaurant event. Overall, Layali Miami provided great service, delicious food, and a vibrant atmosphere that made the engagement party truly special. If you're looking for a place in Miami that can comfortably host a group of around 50 people while offering a memorable dining experience, this is definitely a venue worth considering.

I asked if the kitchen was still open and she said " let me check" , she took a good minute to come back out.

I told her the website says restaurant closes at 10:00pm and the kitchen closes at 9:45pm. She responded by saying " those are hours when we are slow" . To be it just sounded like " Tonight the kitchen is lazy and wants to close earlier than what our website says". I don't see how a business can be successful if you close 25 mins before your business hours on the website and make some money from walking in patrons like myself. I would suggest the owner can tell yelp/google to adjust the times when the restaurant is slow they close earlier. Went to the pizzeria/Italian restaurant next door and it was great.
