    A great change of pace for Charleston, nestled in between all the raw bars, bbq joints and crab houses. Food was great and authentic. The lamb shank was melt in your mouth. A little expensive but portions are pretty big. Inside could be updated a little, but the food makes up for it.

    Fantastic food with great service! Leyla made sure to check on us throughout. I highly recommend the lentil soup, it’s a perfect blend of flavors. Will definitely be coming back!

    The service at Leyla's is first-class and the food is consistently delicious! Our family has repeatedly dined here since the spring of 2020.

    Great location. Nice service. Only ok food. Was a bit disappointed in our meals. Beef schwarma was not special. Meat not tender at all. The pita was not homemade. My daughter got a vegetarian dish and it was good hum. Husband got a fish dish and he did really like his but I can't remember what he was. So one out of three was happy.

    Had beef kabob’s that did not have much diversity in terms of ingredients. Meat was over cooked for both myself and my wife.

    The food was fantastic - However, entrees are $35+ for the holiday menu. The ambiance was somewhat weird, because the food arrived very quickly - Entrees served before appetizer was complete. Then, we had to wait an awkward amount of time for our check, because the servers were closing - It was very obvious that they wanted us to leave even though we had a reservation and were early for our arrival time. The gentleman (who I assume is the owner) was present, but did not walk around to greet the tables. Overall, it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t impressive either.

    Grape leaves really tasty. Entrees terrific. Chocolate martinis wonderful. Try the white chocolate ones. Pricing a little high on a NYE menu. Overall a wonderful evening.
