Laila Restaurant & Lounge

With roots tracing back to Damascus, this dining room pairs its culinary heritage with an eye-catching, dramatic design that commands attention the moment you walk through the door. The menu focuses on classic Middle Eastern flavors, featuring fresh salads, smoky mixed grills, and sweet, flaky layers of homemade baklava. Popular for celebratory weekend dinners—where reservations are highly recommended—the experience is smoothed over by the convenience of valet parking. Just keep in mind that the service pace can occasionally lean toward the leisurely side, and the lounge's hookah setups can sometimes be hit-or-miss.
