Placed a large order yesterday and this place got it right! The shish kabob platter was perfect. Lamb tender and delicious. Pita warm and fresh. And they gave me a large garlic dip I was very happy about. Every one else had no complaints at all. read more

Seed oil free and very healthy, cooked fresh. The flavor was so good and the food was delish. My boyfriend and I got warmed wraps and ate as much as we could fit in our tummies. 10/10 would recommend for anyone in need of a scrumptious quick lunch! read more

Layla's Falafel - Middle Eastern Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

Ordered on Uber Eats. I've been craving middle eastern food more often being away from family. I was a bit disappointed. Chicken shawafel wasn't good, the hummus tasted canned. The beets with the parsley and onion wasn't good. The garlic dip is WAY too garlicky. Waited an hour and spent $75 and didn't even eat more than a few bites. The falafel middle Eastern spot in Trumbull is definitely #1 in CT so far. Usually I go to Paterson NJ for middle eastern food. read more

Food is delicious!! Service is pleasant too. Their wraps are especially large. I enjoy their platters too read more

I wish I could give 10 stars. The Layla's crew is so amazing. I've been a customer here for over a decade now and I can honestly say the food just keeps getting better. The chicken Shawarma wrap, the chicken kebabs, the garlic sauce! Oh and the pita chips!! Amazing. Now that they're completely seed oil free, I am eating their falafels without a second thought. I love Laylas and will be a patron for life! Can't recommend enough. read more

Layla's Falafel - Middle Eastern Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

Layla's is the OG for Middle Eastern food in the area. Their hummus is delicious and smooth. On a recent Door Dash order, however, I was very disappointed. I'd never do that again. You miss out on the warm pita and warm spinach pies. Dining is in the way to go. And, as most vegetarians already know, this type of cuisine is the best with so many options from which to choose! read more

Very casual small place. It's cold in here but I wanted to eat in. Take out for sure next time. read more

Totally renovated, updated and upgraded. This includes the new menu. Many holdovers from before but modernized with lots of new additions. The food was really fresh and they included some TLC too! read more

Delicious food, good portions. Not a sit down place, just take-out. Have a few seats nothing fancy.

The chicken schawarma wrap was very different from what we got there before the makeover. I think they are using a different wrap that is very dry and not very flavorful. Will try the Westport location to see if the changes have been made chain wide. read more

The food is delicious, however, the service is something that needs major work. I work for a company that consistently orders from this restaurant as a good place to get food. However, every single time we order there is an issue with the food being delivered correctly. Platters and bowls are ALWAYS missed and mistakes are always made with our food. It really makes me upset to know a place with such good food has such terrible service. There should be no reason I order 10 items and am giving my hard earned money, to just receive 5 of those items and it get cleared up with a "sorry we forgot". As a business that allows food to be ordered for takeout, please do better. If something doesn't change, this business will lose a solid 10 customers on a weekly basis. I value the time of any business and the workers that work there and their efforts, however, i also value my money being spent and received in an honest way. read more

Very clean staff is always nice and the food is delicious and fresh a must try The new addition to the other stores try it for yourself read more

Layla's Falafel - Jerusalem Falafel Sandwich - Middle Eastern Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

Layla's Falafel of Fairfield ( Westport and Stratford also have locations) is my new favorite spot. The place is small with a few tables and a counter-like seating area by the window. Service is genuinely friendly and so welcoming. The display case showcases many fresh salads and other mouth watering goodies, lots of veggies options. The fluffy pitas are absolutely delicious and you can buy them in packs of 3 to take home along with fresh made hummus if you do choose. For my first visit I got the lamb shawarma on a fluffy pita and loved every bite. I also brought home the daily made hummus and fluffy pitas--- such a wonderful snack. Addicting. My second visit was to pick up more fluffy pitas and try a meat kibbie! I wished I had gotten more as the crunchy outer exterior was perfect for the moist meat filling. Layla herself suggested I try a new dessert just out of the oven! Of course! It was insanely good with a flaky phyllo dough exterior with a cheesecake like filling! OMG! I will definitely be back for this dessert and pita replenishment. I also cannot wait to try every other item on the menu. Parking is limited but do not let that deter you as this is a must try. read more

Excellent chicken shawarma! We stopped in for lunch on a weekday and had a delicious meal. The chicken shawarma was super juicy and flavorful - both the pitas and wraps were delicious. The staff was friendly too. Highly recommended! read more

A pit stop for lunch on a roadtrip with the girls from NYC to Cape Cod. Small place in a little shop area with a small parking lot. Some of the best Mediterranean, authentic and full of flavor. Good amount of food for price. The best hummus and Nann bread I've ever had. Service was good we ordered and got out food pretty fast. read more

It's really hard to come by good Lebanese food in Connecticut. While the selection isn't far reaching, the wraps and the plates are delicious. read more

It had been probably 5 years since I had Laylas so I decided to stop in tonight. They were relatively busy but my food came out fast, I only waited about 5 min. I'm giving 3 stars because I didn't exactly get what I had ordered. Upon reading the reviews this seems to be a recurring problem. I asked for rice, I got rice and lentils, I don't like lentils and it's impossible to pick them out. I asked for lettuce, no lettuce. I asked for tahini on it with the hot sauce on the side, I got no tahini and two containers of hot sauce on the side. And I got the TINIEST amount of tzatziki. The chicken kebab was seasoned amazingly and nicely cooked. The baba ghanoush is super tasty with the fluffy pita. The food I did get was good but I would have given more stars if I had gotten exactly what I had ordered. read more

We love Layla's!!! The food is amazing, the portions are generous, and the staff is super friendly. Every time we finish our meal, we are raving about how good it was and what a great deal it was. And there's always enough for lunch tomorrow! read more

This place opened in 2005 and my family and I eventually gave it a try in 2008. We have been hooked ever since. We had never tried middle eastern food before, but decided to give it a shot because some of the food on their menu was similar to Greek food (we're Greek). We decided to get a big spread this time. I personally have tried falafel from many places and this establishment's namesake is the best I've ever had. Few even come close. It has the perfect blend of spices and they're fried up nice and crispy without being overly oily. The mujadara has a nice earthy flavor to it and is very satisfying to me. The hummus, stuffed grape leaves and spinach pie are also delicious. But one of the things that this place is known for is its garlic dip. We put it on everything, including non middle eastern food. It's garlicky, bold, savory and addicting and pairs well with pretty much everything else we purchased. I'm done gushing. Just eat here. read more

I really enjoyed my chicken shawarma pita at Layla's. The food is packed with flavor and the portions are large! I also ordered a side of the seasoned fries which is also really tasty. The prices are a bit steep but definitely worth it since everything is made fresh. There's also outdoor seating which is nice to enjoy during the summer months. read more

Great mediterranean takeout spot. I got a falafel salad bowl with some pita and hummus on the side. The hummus was delicious and best I've found in the area so far. Also got a sweet treat cookie here that was great read more

Truly delicious cooking! The food makes one happy Excellent help and service. Dine in is possible though limited - enjoy the hip mideastern music and watching the buzz of people coming in and getting lunch to go or stay. read more

Amazing people and food. They are wonderful. They helped bring my food out to the car one night in the rain when it was a large order (I was parked away from the main lot). Also gave my young children french fries while we were waiting because they were getting antsy. The food is amazing too! read more

Food is great and always fresh! Friendly service and always accommodating! Can't say enough about how great the food is it truly is a wonderful option if you don't want fast food. read more

Friendly staff, great for carry out although there's a little room for seating, too. Even my picky kids love everything from this shop.

If you want middle eastern food look no further. This place is legit. I mostly use Laylas for catering and I have never gotten more compliments on food than I do with Laylas and I've been in the industry 20+ years. Their hummus is beautifully freshly made with high quality olive oil. Not only can you taste the difference the texture is creamier and smoother as well. The chicken is melt in your mouth good. I am normally not a fan of baklava but I will eat their's every single time. It's worth every sweet, flaky, nutty calorie! The beet salad is bright and delightful. I haven't tried one item I wouldn't order again. All their food is so fresh and yummy. I just can't get enough. Thank you Laylas!! read more

Layla's has my favorite chicken shawarma. The portions are also pretty large, so I usually can get two meals out of it! The people working are always friendly, too. 5/5! read more

Has been great for over a decade. Always reliable and delicious. One of my top favorite places to eat.

Excellent lamb / beef shawarma! The garlic dip inside was awesome as well! They were very quick, I called at 11am, 10 mins later a hot steamy shawarma! read more

Layla's Falafel - Middle Eastern Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

I love this place so much but I have to give it only 4 stars just because it is inconsistent. Usually the food is great but sometimes it's just okay. I recommend nearly everything on the menu. Everything is seasoned perfectly and cooked perfectly including the falafel, chicken, lamb, etc. Their hummus and pitas are delicious and are the real deal. I recommend their beet salad and spinach pies for sides. Highly recommend but don't get discouraged if it isn't perfect. read more

Delicious flavors, yummy and healthy food. I enjoyed the salad with chicken kebab. Chicken was delish and flavorful. White garlic sauce rocks. Highly recommend! read more

We absolutely love this place and pick up food every time we go to nyc or nj from ma. We even make our family bring it up to us. Everything is amazing- we love the baba, hummus, pita, falafel, grape leaves. We get a lot of takeout and eat it for several days- best takeout Middle Eastern in New England. Also I just now ordered to the Stamford store and accidentally went to Fairfield and both sets of staff were awesome- they transferred my order with no charge and even gave me an extra falafel. Everyone who works there is so kind. read more

Food is really good and service is extremely friendly, the place is small but very clean! Lots of vegan options.

Absolutely the best Mediterranean food in all of New England. Highly recommend this spot for all your middle eastern cravings. Not only is the food incredible, but the service is beyond. Probably some of the nicest staff you'll ever encounter. This place is on another level!! Ps. their garlic, I promise, is the best in the game read more

The best Lebanese food in Ct. great value. Friendly staff The parking is a bit iffy. We'll worth going. read more

So ordering from here is very confusing online as there's a few places named Layla's falafel in the area. Double check the website address if your ordering online (free delivery 50$). So I picked up instead and will 100% be coming back. It was delicious!! Best falafel I've ever had. I did the falafel wrap and WOW, it was amazing. My friend did the pita, and she said hers was good as well but it was a bit more messy and harder to save for later. We also ordered the salad with kabobs to go and my friend said it was amazing as well. Keep in mind the kabob took about 15 min so if you don't wanna wait call ahead. read more

5* for the food! New Middle Eastern places have been popping up in the area but..... Nothing in Fairfield County touches Layla's! Super consistently delicious. Everything- yes everything- is excellent but I crave their fresh citrusy addictive tabbouleh. More parsley than bulgar wheat, fresh tomatoes, garlic, - perfection! & their Falafal are fried to order crispy outside moist flavorful inside- just the right mouth popping size. Lamb is always tender, perfectly seasoned & grilled nicely. The chicken is never dry, always fresh & very flavorful. The chicken shawarma is my other favorite. Their pistachio Baklava is tender & honey sweet, layered w buttery phyllo. I also love th grapefruit soda and I don't even like soda ;) Perfect for take out as there is zero ambiance. Service can be brisk. read more
