Review El Layali Lebanese Cuisine - El Paso

Cool atmosphere. Food is the real reason you come here. The lebanese coffee is bold. I just love food so i mean go try it. Treat yourself. Dont cheat yourself. Life is short.

El Layali was awesome! A nice, relaxed and intimate atmosphere, the lady who served us was friendly and speedy. Food was great, we shared some baba ghanoush, falafel and a baked kibbeh meal - good for two hungry people. Can't wait to go back.

Wonderful environment, very welcoming staff that are perfectly willing to answer questions and make suggestions. The food was fantastic. Fresh, well presented, and portioned nicely to make a very filling meal. Cannot recommend it enough.

Good food. Very nice server. Clean space although they only have a few tables. They have lots of dessert options. It’s a bit difficult to get there. We ended up parking at Riviera and walking over, which wasn’t a huge deal. Overall positive experience.

This is the best Mediterranean food that you will find in El Paso. Authentic Lebanese food. The restaurant is off of Doniphan, in a small corner where finding parking might seem impossible but it’s not. I’m going to cut to the chase, you need to come here!!! Check their hours before coming to make sure they’re open. Every plate that we ordered was AMAZING. I’ll insert pictures. The food is freshly made to order, including desserts. We ordered everything from the creams and sauces to the salads and meats. For dessert, we decided to order the pecan baklava (regular and with a Nutella topping). ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!

Wow....this place was delish! It was pretty empty when I was there and the food was awesome.....I highly recommend the steak shawarma The hummus and tabouleh is top notch. The Nutella baklava is pretty sweet. This is a bring your own wine place so be sure to bring a nice bottle!

We come to try new food and the experience was delicious, novelty and the recommendations were great, tasty and very reasonable prices.

This place is a hidden gem. The food is extraordinary! Try the Appetizers Sampler!! You will not be disappointed.

Fantastic, authentic, Lebanese spot that won’t disappoint with their cuisine, highly recommend!!!

This was my first time visiting and the food was delicious.

The service was pretty quick. The food took a little bit but was worth the wait. The parking in the front is tight there's a narrow side entry that you can park a bigger vehicle in the back.

My son and I love Mediterranean food and have eaten at almost all of the restaurants on the west side. To start with we ordered the mint lemonade. It was freshly made and had just enough sugar to enhance the flavor. Most restaurants overdo it in sugar. This was just perfect. We ordered the grape leaves appetizer and they were just as good. My son ordered the Shawarma that came with pita bread and rice and I ordered the lamb kabobs. This plate came with lemon and herbs potatoes (to die for) and salad. The lamb was so perfectly seasoned and made right on the spot. Prices are similar to other restaurants but Layla out stands on flavor. There is limited parking right in front of the main door but if you look to the right of the restaurant there is an entrance to the rear parking. We are definitely coming back. Oh! It’s BYOB which a ++.

This is a great place for a date night, lunch or dinner, quiet pleasant service and delicious food that is something different for our area. The beautifully presented flavorful and healthy food is worth returning for to try all the taste treats. Their homemade Labneh yoghurt and dishes are all excellent.

Everything my girlfriend and I tried here was delicious. The restaurant is very clean and the staff is great. Highly recommend. Restaurant is currently by reservation or take out only due to not being able to find staff so please be mindful of that when planning. I will definitely be back very soon to try the rest of the menu.

Honestly the BEST Mediterranean food I’ve had! Everything was perfect! They’ve made another customer for life! If I had to think of a negative, it’s that their parking isn’t great. And they’re closed on Mondays. Lol
