This was our 4th time visiting and the food gets better every time the staff is very attentive and pleasant. The atmosphere is perfect for the family or a night out with your significant other. Highly recommended!!!!

First time going to this place and the food was delicious! All the meats were well cooked and tender. Savory flavor combinations! The Leila dessert was also very delicious and not too chocolaty. Service was excellent and there was even a belly dance.

Chicken kabob delicious! Moist and flavorful, lamb shank really good, couscous very good and yummy grilled veggies. Hummus a little bland for our taste. All good, we'll try a different app. next time, yep NEXT time - absolutely going back. Don't know why we never tried this place before. Service was great and the atmosphere was nice. Bonus-there's a public parking lot directly across the street.

Always an excellent experience!!! Lots to choose on the menu, the Leila's Grill is my favorite w/generous portion of lamb, beef, chicken, shrimp, veggies and couscous... it's just wonderful!! Service is always superb, food is consistently outstanding, and the entertainment is so much fun! Try them you'll have a great time. Sadly, we don't live in West Palm anymore and miss it. Now we always make a point to stop in whenever we are anywhere close to their vicinity 🙂

Pleasant surprise in the midst of West Palm Beach. Wonderful Lebanese cuisine to tickle your palate. Jason, our wonderful server, started us off with the "Mezzo Tour". A wonderful saming of 6 appetizers. This is a meal unto itself. His recommendation of "The Game Reserve" , west coast African red blend was perfect. Our main entree was branzino with rice and vegetables. Needless to say, we were too full to attempt dessert. We did settle for Turkish coffee. Very similar to a very bold espresso.
I highly recommend this restaurant. We will return!-Ramon Vazquez
