This is my first time here, and I walked in very pleasantly surprised with the decor. Simple and…read moreyet, very charming, very Arabian. I read other reviews and immediately that I wanted to try their lemonade with mint, which was heavenly. It was extremely refreshing, not too sweet, not too sour, tiny chopped leaves of mint floating around like confetti. I ordered the lamb shank, a plate of pickles, and also ordered falafel and avocado dip to go. The lamb was very well seasoned and fall of the bone tender. The accompanying cucumber bits in yogurt sauce was refreshing. The side of mushrooms with carrots and corn kernels that came with the dish was mediocre, particularly since the consistency and look of the mushrooms looked like they came from a can, but I may be wrong. The plate of pickles was delightful. I will admit that I was very disappointed because I had read that lentil soup would be complementary with main dishes when anyone dined in until 4 PM, but I'd never had any lentil soup at all, unless I am mistaken about the offer. Service was fast, even though there was only one server, who was, by the way, very polite and attentive. All in all, I will be back and I might actually end up being regular here.

The restaurant was very clean and very busy with customers. We were served lentil soup and was absolutely delicious. We ordered some traditional Mediterranean dishes and also very good.

Great experience and will be back, highly recommend Layali Halab, give them a try.

After living in the Middle East for decades, this restaurant is the closest in authenticity and the…read moreflavors I would expect in Lebanon/Palestine. It's delicious! The staff also offers the same personable service one would experience in the Middle East. They offer suggestions to the novice and indulge the connoisseur. Plus, I've used them for catering, for a more exotic flair, at an event. The guests raved about the taste. Jafra's location is hidden, making it feel like you've found a secret indulgence. It's a quiet location perfect for a tete a tete or a family gathering, where you feel wrapped in the experience. My husband will tell you, the only draw back is the price. It's not crazy expensive, but not cheap. But no matter what my husband says... it's worth every penny for delicious, exotic flavors that leave me satisfied, everytime. My husband too. LOL

The interior dining area has a few tables, large windows that make it bright and yet you sense you've found a one-off favorite. You will love the unpretentious servers that focus on getting your food that's it, good thing you will know what I mean. Large portions cut fresh meat off an actual rotisserie gyro-cone. Greek fixings on a pita and salad and fries enjoyed some baklava for dessert. Value and flavor are its primary features. Just keep your high dining opinion off your sleeve and enjoy it for what it is.

The biscoff shake was nothing short of amazing. But the real star was the pizza. A really solid crust, heaps of gooey cheese, the right proportion of ingredients to allow the flavors to pop (and good quality ingredients to boot), and a wonderful curry masala sauce. This is how fusion cuisine is supposed to be- the best of both worlds that comes together in a way that is both new and comfortably familiar. Staff was polite and service was fast. I can't wait to bring my family next time. I have some picky eaters and some adventurous eaters (I also have serious food allergies) and there is something here for everyone.
