Wonderful! Beautiful restaurant and amazing food! Service was slightly slow but very welcoming and helpful. The potatoes were the best but everything was great.

Leila is a wonderful upscale Middle Eastern restaurant. I recommend coming here with a group to try the many cold and hot "mezze" or appetizers on the menu. Everything we ordered was delicious: the Confit Garlic, Butata Harra, Eggplant Fettah, Labneh, and the Beetroot & Feta. Many of the dishes are vegetarian. There was a vegetarian in our group and we were able to order meat dishes with the meat on the side. Even though the restaurant was bustling the service was good. The only issue was that it took them a long time to bring out another basket of pita bread. I want to return to try more dishes and maybe an entree if I don't get full from the mezze first.

This place is fantastic ! Food was a 10/10 Drinks a 7/10 Service really attentive It is pricy but worth it ! Beautiful decor It's hidden gem ! I couldn't find it at first ! Parking is stressful but that's all Detroit !!

We really loved the ambiance here. The lighting is beautiful and love the open kitchen concept. It was a very fun date night spot. The food is delicious! We can't wait to go back and try more. We ordered a dirty martini and Lebanese beer for drinks. The dirty martini was one of the best I've had in so long because the olives were so fresh and same with the olive juice. For food we got the Muhammara, hummus with chicken and jalapeño, halloumi, arayes, and mixed grill. This was a lot of food! We have been other places like this and the portions were tiny so we were expecting similar but we were wrong and had so much leftover. We would probably only do one hot mezze and one Cold mezze next time. Our favorites were the muhammara and hummus. I could not stop eating it! The mixed grill was also delicious and great flavor. The only thing we wouldn't get again was the arayes. It's basically a ground lamb quesadilla. The lamb was too gamey and overwhelmed the dish. Service is quick and courteous. I love places that come and give you new silverware and plates after starting dishes. Overall, great experience. We will definitely be back!

It's nice to be hosted when we come to town. Aaliyah is part of the Midwest office and an authority on Lebanese cuisine. This means a phenomenal experience ahead for us! Leila is a gorgeous, stylish restaurant with a romantic ambiance that really prepares you for the authentic meal that awaits. At first I was concerned about the smaller portion size. Since we love to share, would there be enough? Aaliyah recognized this and put all fears to rest by ordering six openers. Soups and Salads. All of which were the perfect combination of texture, flavour and temperature. My vegetarian cousin will love this place. My new found favourite is Beetroot & Feta. Priceless. For those in the know, Leila puts a unique spin on some of the more common Lebanese dishes. All I can say is they were all delicious and I could easily see myself here a lot. The servers and staff were wonderful and provided top-notch service. Of course I didn't get a look at the final bill and it's extremely inappropriate to ask, but I don't think the costs are terribly out of line. It truly was a memorable experience. Next we visit the motor city, we have a definite go-to in Leila! 02/25

Second time here, able to easily snag a seat at the bar for two. Had some cocktails and shared plates. Had garlic and chicken kabobs- fresh and yummy. Good cocktails also! Friendly and prompt service but also not trying to rush!

This place is one heck of a hard place to get reservations to. But MY GOD, it's so worth it. Parking: There's some street parking right in front of the restaurant (if you get lucky) otherwise it's pretty difficult to find street parking if you don't want to pay. My husband and I don't like the hassle of going around the neighborhood to find parking so we just parked in the parking garage for $5 about a block away. Less than 1/2 mile. So it was easy for us. Ambiance: Omg. From the moment you want into the restaurant, to your table, and even to the restroom. I was just in awe of the place, beautifully done like all the other CH Group restaurants. Food: I honestly didn't think I would like this place as much as I did, but I already want to go back and try everything else! For bread my husband and I got the garlic bread with the shallot yogurt and garlic oil to start. It was so yummy! For our entire we shared the salmon kabob and saffron rice. We could have ordered more, but was already pretty full from the bread, but I'm not complaining since it was all delicious!

Wow wow wow! Beautiful Lebanese restaurant with a lovely ambiance and a shaded outdoor patio in Capitol Park. Incredible food! I absolutely loved my Mjaddara, a spicy salad with lentils. It's the most delicious salad I've had in a long time. I loved the fresh jalapeños and dressing, and the sauce that the lentils were cooked in. Such a perfectly balanced dish and plated beautifully too. My friend let me try some of his Mixed Grill dish and the meats were cooked perfectly. So flavorful and tender. Fresh, warm pita bread was a perfect accompaniment to our entrees. For dessert, the pistachio cheesecake blew my kind. Homemade cardamom graham cracker crust, and a raspberry rose whip on top. Perfection! My Lebanese lemonade drink was very refreshing. Attentive, friendly, and excellent service. I can't wait to return and try more menu items. Phenomenal experience!
