I've been a number of times. Predominantly for the food!
Jenya was our server, and she was tip notch! She kept checking in on us, gave good feedback on our selections, and encouraged us to try new things. Ask for her if you can.
The whole rotisserie chicken is amazing! It's well flavored! Tasty! Juicy! Eat it!
Also, the Greek salad with added kabob chicken is amazing. Hummus is amazing!! Fatoush is outstanding. Saffron is outstanding.
The lamb chops are delicious! I licked my fingers! Oh my gosh, AND the garlic butter is wonderful! You get a great amount of food.
Did I mention the soft, fresh pitas! The fresh fruit juices!!! The mixed berries drink was amazing!!!
The lemonade is super tart! Beware but it's Tasty!!
They are working on the decor, to make it more beautiful! They've a patio. Hookahs. Affordable prices! All great things!!!
Annnnnnd, let's talk about the family atmosphere! You will see people lounging and talking. It's casual. You can get event space. Folks also play cards and dominoes and watch the sports on the TV.
It's a good space. No alcohol served for religious purposes, but they do not push any of that on you.
Now, do NOT order what is not Mediterranean. It's not good.

Very nice place to go on weekend nights with live music and a lovely vibe.
This place is usually packed on weekend evenings. They have outside and inside seating. They have really nice interiors and wherever you sit, it's all good. We just tried their hummus and pita which was freshly made but was okay in taste. 3.5/5. However, their virgin mojito was really good.

We always go to Layal whenever we’re in Texas. Highly recommended for families and friends if you guys want to hang out with each other, Layal definitely got the best atmosphere for it. The service is nice, and the food is always good.

Layal Mediterranean Cafe delivered an exceptional dining experience that left a lasting impression on our taste buds. Our culinary journey began with the Alfredo sauce vegetarian pizza, a delightful creation featuring a pizza base crafted from the same high-quality ingredients used in their pita bread. Topped with a medley of mushrooms, bell peppers, and fresh basil, each bite was a symphony of flavors that showcased the restaurant's commitment to quality and taste.
The Alfredo pasta continued to elevate our dining experience. Bursting with the earthy goodness of mushrooms and the vibrant crunch of bell peppers, the pasta was generously coated in a luscious Alfredo sauce that struck a perfect balance between creamy and savory. The thoughtful combination of ingredients showcased the chef's expertise and dedication to creating memorable dishes.
Even the cheeseburger, a classic choice, exceeded expectations. Paired with golden fries, it proved to be a comforting yet indulgent option. The juicy patty and gooey cheese melded harmoniously, while the fries provided a satisfying crunch. It was evident that even seemingly straightforward choices were crafted with care and attention to detail.
The ambiance of the restaurant, combined with attentive service, added to the overall enjoyment of the evening. Layal Mediterranean Restaurant is undoubtedly a gem for those seeking a fusion of Mediterranean and classic flavors. From the innovative pizza base to the delectable pasta and classic cheeseburger, every dish resonated with culinary excellence, making our visit a truly amazing night to remember.

First of all, I would like to shout out to the friendliest chef 👩🍳 "Neamat "
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Layal in Houston and I have to say, it was an amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was top-notch.
The ambiance of the restaurant was chic and stylish, with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that our experience was nothing short of perfect.
The menu was extensive and offered a wide range of options to choose from. We ended up trying a few of the appetizers and they were all fantastic. The main courses were also exceptional, with generous portions and beautifully presented.
Overall, Layal is a must-try restaurant in Houston. The food, service, and atmosphere are all top-notch and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great dining experience. Thank you Layal for a memorable evening!

I recently visited Layal Cafe on Richmond, and I had an outstanding experience thanks to Joli, our waitress. Her service was truly exceptional and made our dining experience memorable.
Joli was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. She provided excellent recommendations from the menu, and her knowledge of the dishes was impressive. Her warm and welcoming demeanor made us feel right at home.
The food at Layal Cafe was delicious, and Joli's service elevated the entire dining experience. I highly recommend this place, especially if you're lucky enough to have Joli as your waitress. Thank you, Joli, for your amazing service!

I have been going to Cafe Layal since the day they opened. I have always had top quality service and food. I love the atmosphere, they even got a spot for kids to hangout while we adults smoke our lives away ;). I have nothing but good things to say about them. Wish them good luck and many more decades of top notch service and success. Hope to see you all again soon.

First time visiting…had some of the best authentic Mediterranean food tonight at Layal! Lamb & beef kabob plates…the portions were humongous!! Shout out to our server Omar who was great…provided service with a smile. He didn’t mind me asking “what is this and what is that? From the hot tea with mint to the hookah…wonderful from start to finish! The owners know what they are doing..I felt like I was sitting somewhere in Jordan!

Our party, consisting of six adults and one child, was promptly seated upon arrival. The quality of both the food and the ambience was excellent. Throughout our dining experience, the manager and staff made multiple visits to ensure our satisfaction. Our waiter, Yousuf, displayed remarkable patience and kindness, providing detailed explanations of the menu items. Overall, it was a highly enjoyable experience, and we certainly plan to return.

I got the Arayes Pizza. Service was kinda slow. I called prior and was told 10 min. When I arrived 5 min later, they told me another 15 min. I’ve been here before and got the steak and hookah, both of which were fine.

I’ve been a loyal customer at Layal for years! And I can say I love this place! The environment reminds me of back home! And Yousuf was amazing, he was constantly coming in to ask us how we were doing and if everything was good! If you come in be sure to ask for Yousef if he’s available! Great place , tea and customer service!

One of the best hookah coffeeshops in Houston and the place is really big and amazing. The renovations going on bow will make this place outstanding! Very reasonable prices for their menu items and the portions are really generous! The food quality is amazing as well.

Just Got New Menu . Nice hookah place with nice Mediterranean food . Their full roasted chicken is superb. Full of energy and very friendly staff. Their owner Hassan is very attentive and real concerned about his business. I saw him going table to table to inquired about food and service. New menu is coming next week . This place open late night and very safe . Valet parking with no charges but you pay as you please as a tip to hard working guys . I would ask Hassan to update their toilets and inside cleanness.

After seeing a lot of generic restaurants in town; Layla is by far the best mediterranean banquet hall & restaurant I've been to, The food is authentic, fresh, clean, generous, an amazing place for family dinners and event catering, the service goes above and beyond satisfaction The service staff make sure you're always satisfied happy with a personal touch, the atmosphere is like no other so this is the right place to entertain friends come chill out and if you have a sweet tooth the creps and desserts are more than satisfying & very much addictive and let's not forget that at Layal you get the best clean hookah in town. I urge everyone to try it I'm sure you're gonna love it ever since I've discovered this place I've been going there at least 5 times a week.

Great Espresso.. I can also recommend the Chicken Alfredo.. Pricey on the sparkling water.. but then again, they are there to sell food, so I won't be too critical.. - I can also recommend you go there for Lunch on September 10th..
