Opinions de Cafe Layal Midtown Houston
Very good hookah lounge, and it’s BYOB fo a charge. Their hookah is well prepared so this my friend and i’s go to spot. Food wise, I haven’t eaten here often but the few things I’ve had were fairly decent.
Layal Restaurant provides excellent food paired with exceptional service. A wonderful dining experience from start to finish . Laila was very helpful and patient with everybody.
The food was absolutely amazing! Great menu, good portion sizes. The Layal house salad with gyro was a great option for my first visit!
Layal Middle Eastern Restaurant is a gem in Houston. The food is absolutely delicious, fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Everything we ordered was well-seasoned and authentic, and the portions were generous. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed meal, and the staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. You can really feel the love for the cuisine here, home made breads and all. Highly recommend if you’re craving quality Middle Eastern food. We’ll definitely be back!
My first time in this establishment after years of passing it by happened to be on a Saturday afternoon around 3pm. The place had a very low occupancy, nice music at a reasonable volume, lots of space and staff members to assist. If you ever thought this was a restaurant, it is more of a co-working space with tasty food. Oh, there's also smoothies, a fee for BYOB or you can grab a drink from next door and enjoy it here. Pretty cool I thought. I had the pleasure of staying over 6 hours eating Shrimp Kabobs, rice, grilled veggies, and fries that I chose over the hummus. The garlic sauce is delicious!! Their smoothies are very sugarless in taste but watery which is good for hydration, maybe. No complaints other than the $7 price tag. Our servers were attentiveness and pleasant. Lastly, Hookah is a service here, there's an outdoor covered patio with what I believe were heated lamps. Overall, I enjoyed my time here. I felt comfortable enough to return for work purposes. Thanks Cafe Layal
an absolute delight—it immediately brought back the vibrant sights, sounds, and flavors of my past trips to Dubai and the Middle East. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was simply captivating. The decor and ambiance truly captured that distinct, elegant, yet warm Middle Eastern hospitality. The food was the true star, of course. Every dish, from the fragrant , mixed grilled kebabs was authentic and prepared with incredible care. The flavors were so rich and layered; they tasted just as I remember them from the bustling souks and fine dining spots in Dubai. The mixture was the perfect sweet finish. The service was impeccable—attentive, gracious, and welcoming, perfectly mirroring the exceptional hospitality you find in the region. If you're looking for an unforgettable meal that offers a genuine culinary escape, look no further. It's more than just a dinner; it's a nostalgic journey. Highly recommended!
Food good, like their build a veggie plate. Fried eggplant really good. I think they secretly charge a service fee however bc we just got 2 entrees, 2 soups, 1 spicy potato side, 1 smoothie and 1 soda shared by 3 people. It came out to >$22/ person. And that's without tip. Service good but be honest with customers. If you go here, I would not tip too much or at all bc I think they already calculate that in your bill for you, and their proces are definately abit higher than what is says online here now looking at my receipt. Service and atmosphere nice, but inflation is definitely hitting restaurants too though.
Everything is always fresh when I come here. This is a go to for me because I’m vegan and the menu is very accommodating. Every time I come the staff is friendly and the lady that’s been our waitress the last couple times, short with the dark hair, she knows what I need before I ask. Always have all my sauces because I’m extra. Thanks so much for all of your hospitality! Highly recommend
Food is amazing. Thought their choice of music is very bad. Jayna she is amazing. With hookah you have to take your chances of good or bad. They have their days!! I love their mango and mint lemon smoothie. Great place to study during the afternoon. I spent many days studying their with my coffee and hookah!!
This place is basically like my Cheers lol. Friendly service. Hookah and food is decent. I come here multiple times a week and work from here as well.

Cool Spot. Get work done, pretty quiet and perfect ambiance for people trying to work or relax and lightly socialize. Food is Mediterranean.

The best lamb chops I've ever had in Houston and I've been to some of the best . Hookahs blow very well and the customer service is always very welcoming.The ambiance is always nice and never have …
So, for my birthday, my husband surprised me with a dinner date at this place. We decided to try out Spicy Potatoes, Mixed Grill plate, and Lamb Shank. The food was actually quite delicious! Especially the grilled meat which was so tender and juicy. However, the price was a bit on the expensive side. It's a popular spot, always bustling with people. Since everyone seems to be enjoying their hookah, the whole place was filled with smoke. We had to wait a while to get a table and even for the food to arrive. However, our waitress was super friendly and made an effort to make us feel comfortable.
Great option if you have a group looking for hookah + good food. Service was friendly. Was it the best shawarma I've had? No. But I'd take the chicken with hummus though which was quite good (when had hot). Mango beverage was spot on! Seating, although ample and standard table-chair, did not have the lounging kind you'd find at hookah lounges. Lighting was on the brighter side (don't expect a dim hookah place, is what I'm saying). Parking is not free. Just take the valet parking - it's actually cheaper than self-park.

Patio seating. Reasonably priced. Food okay. Hookah.great place to come and work on your laptop. Lots of outlets to charge. Too many flies inside flying over your food.
I'm just so grateful this place had ordering until 2:30am via delivery apps (I forget which one exactly). While everything else was closed, this one came through, and it wasn't just late night tras…
Doordash delivery. \n\nThis was so strange. The chicken kababs were well above average: moist, flavorful. The lamb was dry and tasteless. Most places, it's the other way around, because chicken is …
Didnt have any food but it was given a little run down, but the hookahs were amazing flavor and everything and the service was impeccable
This restaurant is mediocre compared to other Arabic restaurants in Houston. The food is good, but the menu is not diverse. They only offer a limited variety of common Arabic and Middle Eastern food. I prefer Layal at Hilcroft to this one. They have much more beautiful atmosphere and a menu with a very good variety of options.
I come here so much … with the BYOB I’m usually too lit to even look at the bill 😵💫🍷… but tonight I was sober. The waiter gave me the total without showing any bill breakdown 🤨. I paid it — sounded about right. Then I asked for a printed receipt and the total was torn off 😒. Asked again for the full version and boom — gratuity already added 🧐. But the menu clearly says that’s for parties of 5 or more. There were THREE of us. Our 4th friend came at the end and didn’t even order anything! 👀 I don’t do dishonest energy… run me my $24.63 back and you can keep that $13.28 tip since we’re being shady, sir!! 💅🏾💸
Decent spot in midtown for some middle Eastern food. I ordered the chicken schwarma and lamb gyro and both were filling and fries were battered/crispy.

The fruits were pretty old and the food wasn't that good but the service was amazing they have an amazing buffet in Ramadan!
Been coming here on & off for many years. Over the years it has declined interior & exterior. It's BYOB & they use to not charge to get it. Having to pay $25 to drink your own alcohol is insane. Pa…

Too many other places to choose from with better hookah, cleanliness and customer service than this place.

. My wife and I went to this cafe on Sunday. The parking lot was packed and the people patrolling broke my car window. We told the staff and they said there was no manager. They took our phone number. They never called us. This is irresponsible towards the public. It is not safe here.
Don’t come here for the food or the hookah. It’s a waste of time and money. Expect reheated frozen food, a broken hookah, and a $4 charge for the hose (they don’t mention that when you order). I ended up taking mine home. The only decent part was the sweet server.
Not good no give you anything fresh yesterday. I drive from Austin to Houston. I go for him. I take my breakfast. He give me double egg and Lebanon with meat. It’s so bad right now. I’m sick. I threw up nothing is a flesh sorry
