    Amazing food and service. I recommend the branzino and the meat platter, but everything I tried was great. No complaints!

    The food was absolutely amazing and the staff were wonderfully attendant and kind. Will definitely be going back.

    Layl is a modern yet cozy Mediterranean and Lebanese dining experience where fresh ingredients meet impeccable service. This stylish gem offers a vibrant fusion of traditional Lebanese flavors with a hip, contemporary twist. They are committed to quality. Every dish is made with the freshest ingredients. Try the rich, smoky grilled eggplant dip and refreshing tabbouleh. The owner ensured we felt welcomed and attended to with a warm smile and genuine attentiveness. Whether you're in the mood for mezze-style appetizers, a hearty main dish, or a favorite Leg of Lamb on Freeky tajeen style, wow. I enjoyed the laid-back yet chic decor, with its mix of contemporary elements, which created a perfect backdrop for a memorable meal for us. Very enjoyable!

    Amazing food, everything was delicious. I felt like I was back in Lebanon. Branzino was excellent and for the desert the ashta is a must!

    Great Lebanese food made from scratch. Delicious lamb shank and kebab. Lemon potatoes were also delicious. We will be back.

    The food is amazing and the service is great. My wife asked about a drink that wasn't on the menu…read moreand they didn't have it but our server mixed it up for her. Lebanese style falafels are the best and this place nails it. I commented to my wife how beautiful the chicken had come out, the colors, little black charred corners and edges from the fire, golden reflection on the glaze. It is not cheap but worth every penny. Our server was great and we can't wait to go back. The place is so unassuming from the outside and beautiful on the inside.

    I recommend coming early to secure a parking spot in the lot or scout for parking in the…read moreneighborhood close by. I was lucky enough to get the last spot in the lot. We had reservations and our tables were ready early before our time so we were able to sit there and wait for the rest of the party. The menu is pretty extensive with a good variety of cold and hot appetizers and meats. The prices were also reasonable. We opted for the dinner package, which came with choices of 3 cold appetizers, 3 hot appetizers, salad, 3 choices of meat, and rice for $55 per person plus tax and gratuity. The belly dancing show started at 8:30pm and was entertaining. The dancer really engaged with the audience. I was sitting in a far corner and thought I was hidden from her view, but she came over, started dancing next to me, and got me to do a slight shimmy along with her. It was fun. My only complaint is the waitress was a bit much. We already ordered a lot of food, mind you, but every opportunity she had, she kept pushing to order more and then mentioned there would be an extra charge. She also wanted to charge us for 8 people even though we had 7 people at the table.

    Interesting their name has "Restaurant" but it's more of a to-go shop than a dine-in place…read more Picking up my food was an interesting experience. No one at the counter. Turns out multiple food shops occupy this location. You'll have to ring the Ring doorbell of the shop you ordered from. Likes: + Yummy food. I liked the variety of flavors and textures in my order. + Pleasant, modern ambience. . The shop will seem like it's in the middle of nowhere, but rest assured, your food is at Ste F. Non-likes: - Somewhat expensive. I don't think the cup of simple-looking lentil soup was worth $6. - Very limited seating. - Inconveniently located in the middle of nowhere. I had: $6 Crushed lentil cup + $19.55 Kafta plate + tax - 1-time ChowNow discount = 24.77

    I absolutely love Lebanese food even more so than my native Persian cuisine, so when I heard about…read morean authentic Lebanese spot in Irvine, I knew I had to give it a try. Before you visit, keep these things in mind: 1. This is a ghost kitchen, not a full-service restaurant. It's best for takeout and delivery. There are only a few chairs outside--just four in total. 2. Ordering is entirely self-service via a digital kiosk, with no staff on hand to assist you. 3. There are no bathrooms available anywhere on-site. Regarding the food, it was just okay-- a bit underwhelming, especially given that Lebanese cuisine is typically so flavorful. The chicken was dry, the hummus lacked depth, and the rice was bland. That said, the fattoush salad, one of my favorites, was very good, with a delicious dressing. Overall, I can't say I'd return. The prices were quite high for the portions, and the quality didn't meet my expectations. If you're looking for a quick Lebanese meal, this place is a decent option, but don't expect much more than that.
