    We were seated by the front door at first and it was a little chilly when the door opened so I asked if there was another table back further. There was and without any problem and very graciously, we were moved. The cocktails and wine we ordered were excellent. The food was outstanding and fresh. We had mostly vegetarian options like crispy cauliflower and Saag Chat then Baigan Bartha, wild Mushroom Korma and Lamb Vindaloo. The portions were big so we we took a little of each home with rice for another meal. All the food was great and in discussing which was our favorite, we all said we just couldn’t decide because it was all good. Our server was excellent and the timing was not rushed at all. We had no problem with conversation as the noise level was very reasonable. If you haven’t tried it, go!!!

    We love Andaaz so we were so excited when we found out they have a sister restaurant! The food was just as amazing and our waiter, Jay, was fantastic. What a lovely experience. We'll definitely be back!

    Having just returned from Nepal, and eating authentic Indian food while there, I was looking for a local restaurant that might serve just as authentic Indian food. Laila exceeded my expectations with delicious, authentic Indian food and wonderful hospitable service.
