    I’ve been to Laila several times and have always had a wonderful experience. Service is top-notch, the dishes are delicious and you can have a nice conversation as the noise level is low. I highly recommend Laila and plan to go back frequently

    We were greeted with smiling faces and warm words. Service was great. We ordered the crab cakes, chicken tandoori, crispy spinach, Naan bread with mango chutney, and another chicken entree. Everything was great, but what I noticed most was how much it seemed the entire staff appreciated us being there. We will be back.

    The recommendations for dining choices were spot-on. The cocktail (in this case the "laila") was excellent and tasted of fresh fruit. We'll be back.

    This restaurant is becoming our second home. Its tasteful decor and warmth sets the stage for a great experience. Each time we visit, we are welcomed warmly at the door and experience exceptional service at the table. The food is always consistently tasteful, no matter what we order. They are very knowledgable about the menu and ingredients, able to make recommendations or, guide you with any food preferences or allergies. This restaurant is intimate and has a great bar as well. This is a frequent spot for us and always look forward to our next visit! Do not miss what I believe, is the best Indian cuisine in Asheville!
